Where the caravans set off for Timbuktu
Rissani is the most authentic town in the area: no tourist shops, but a souk where farmers sell dates, spices and animals as they did a hundred years ago.
With a local guide you visit the market, the mud-brick ksars and the mausoleum of Moulay Ali Cherif, and taste medfouna fresh from the oven.
