CLA Studios Ouarzazate
Morocco
Our next stop is Ouarzazate, where you’ll enjoy a tasty lunch. After a short break and a tour of the city, we’ll visit the Atlas Film Studio, often called the Moroccan Hollywood, designed in an Egyptian style. Famous directors choose this place to film popular movies and series like Game of Thrones, Gladiator, and Alexander. The visit to Ouarzazate and the film studio will give you insight into various cultures.
