Homestay in Morocco with this tribe is a rare opportunity to experience the life of the last nomads in Morocco, and see how they live each day taking care of themselves and their animals. The experience with nomads can be done in only three days with two nights in the nomad tent, but also the experience can be longer as much as you want it to be.
