What Is It?
The Day in the Life of a Berber is a program that has been developed by Adrar Aventure in a small village south of Marrakech. The program is based out of a traditional Berber house that is equipped to hold a fairly large group of 6 people. The program’s intent is to allow visitors to experience more of the real Berber culture.
What Do You Do?
The program is packed full of fun activities like learning to brew mint tea, baking bread in the clay oven, cooking tajine over the coals, and experiencing life as Berbers. Whether you are drawing water from the well or helping harvest olives, the time allows you to get a small glimpse into the rural Berber life.
