Some of the oasis that you might encounter on your way to the desert tour of Morocco
Ziz Valley
Draa Valley
This valley you can see on your way from Agdz to Zagora and all the way to M'hamid. However, the most splendid views are just before Zagora. The valley is absolute stunning and it is the longest river valley in Morocco dotted by many small Berber and even Nomad villages that decided to settle. It is known in Morocco that people from this valley are the friendliest and honest people. It is also worthwhile if you are in this area to take one of the off roads into the valley to see the small planted fields of vegetables. Also anyone in Morocco will tell you that the sweetest and highest quality of dates come from Draa Valley.
From Dades Valley To Todra Gorge
Travelers heading to Merzouga on their desert tour visit on their way the Dades and Todra Gorge that are so worth the stop. However, if you have enough time and have 4x4 WD that you should take the off road (piste) between the two gorges. It offers some unique and hidden treasures that you are unable to see from the pave road. The scenery changes but after you set from Dades Gorge you pass along this gorgeous river oasis.
