FAQ

Is the Telouet road paved?

Yes, today the whole stretch between Aït Ben Haddou and Telouet is paved. It's narrow but very scenic.

Are the film studios worth a visit?

If you like cinema, yes: there are sets from famous films. Otherwise we prefer to spend more time at the Taourirt kasbah or in Skoura.
