After arriving at Chichaoua Village you’ll make a quick stop to rest for a while and then enjoy a hot cup of freshly brewed coffee. After that you’ll continue on heading towards Sidi Mukhtar, where you may take some amazing photos of goats climbing trees and being the happiest they can! you will also have a chance to meat some lovely hard working ladies at the co-operative and learn how they extract argan oil to produce cosmetic products.
