The last stretch

Tajda is a village in Tarmigt, 6 km from Ouarzazate airport. The Google Maps pin marks the house.

  1. The village track

    Guests say the last part of the way is a dirt track, so a car or a petit taxi helps.

  2. The painted sign

    Look for it on the wall.

    Private parking. Check-in 13:00–23:00, reception open 24 hours.

  • Un bon gîte d'étape à Ouarzazate, nous avons passé une très bonne nuit dans une chambre au grand calme ! Notre hôte a été très accueillant, prévenant et de super bon conseil ! Et surtout mention spéciale pour sa soupe d'orge !

  • Un gîte où l’accueil est très chaleureux. L’endroit est assez spacieux, les chambres et commodités sont très bien entretenues. Azdin est aux petits soins, réactif et très bienveillant. Et en plus, il cuisine merveilleusement bien!
