The Khettaras (or Foggaras) Are a Succession of Wells Linked by Underground Canals
"Leaving the desert, we move on to Todra Gorge. This 1000-ft gorge is hemmed in on all sides by vertical limestone cliffs and is also called Morocco’s Grand Canyon. We will have a stop at the Berber co-operative where you can see and buy authentic, Berber handmade rugs, kilims and carpets. The afternoon can be spent exploring the Gorge, walking through the Palmerie or trying our optional activity of Rock Climbing. The charm of Todra lies in its changing colours as the sun slowly moves from east to west. Overnight Todra Gorge (Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner included).” BLOGGER’S NOTE: I opted out of the walk to the gorge from the hotel. By now the tour guide had seen what exertion did to this former smoker; and I was, gratefully, told that the hike was somewhat strenuous.
