Alternatively, you may wish to join the locals in some hussling and bargaining for that unique Moroccan souvenir, from Berber jewels to embroidered carpets or inlaid wood and adorned leather, before sitting in one of the many rooftop cafés surrounding the square to enjoy this incredible picture postcard image, before returning to the hotel.

MARRAKECH · LONDON
DAY 6
ERFOUD · THE ROAD OF A THOUSAND KASBAHS · OUARZAZATE
Today the Todgha Gorge and the Valley of a Thousand Kasbahs await. At nearly 300 metres in height and only 10 metres wide at the narrowest point, the Todgha Gorge is located near the old oasis town of Tinerhir in the High Atlases which provided a safe refuge for the Moroccan Chieftains during the French occupation. As one of Morocco's most spectacular sights and a must on any visitor's itinerary, the Todgha Gorge is encircled by the vast and lush valley of palms and palmeries, an attraction in themselves, as are the world famous Kasbahs, or fortified villages, dotted along the way. Our destination tonight is Ouarzazate and the Berber Palace hotel, for dinner and our overnight.
Today we depart Marrakech for the airport where you join your direct British Airways flight, operated by GB Airways or indirect Royal Air Maroc flight to London. On arrival at London Gatwick or Heathrow, our staff will greet you and transfer you to Titan transport for your journey home to your front door.

DAY 8
MARRAKECH
A guided city sightseeing tour is included this morning. As probably the most famous of the Imperial cities, you will experience the vibrant and seductive sights that are so evocative of Marrakech. You will enter the Medina, a labyrinth of small alleys famed for its stalls and souks, lined with sacks of piled-high with almonds and spices and the heady aroma of saffron and orange blossom. The day would not be complete without a visit to the Djema El Fna square, Marrakech's heart, watching its snake charmers, fortune-tellers, blanket weavers, water sellers and rug merchants mesmerising the visitor.
