Hotels near Ksar el Borj

Riad Chant d'étoiles is located in Tadighoust. Tadighoust is a small quiet village at the beginning of a magnificent valley, neglected by the guides and most tourist, but it is just as beautiful as the much publicized (rightly, it must be admitted) Todhra and Dades. The riad is located in the middle of an oasis with thousands and thousands of date palm trees. Palm trees are my favorite trees, so the walk in the oasis was like a walk in heaven for me! The sun started to set, it was cool, no wind, and so serene. The silence was only broken by the occasional braying of a donkey, and once for the call to prayer at sunset, sounding from the speakers from all the mosques in the area. The call for prayer was also the sign for me that I should make getting back to the riad a priority, as there are absolutely no street lights in this village. Leila, the chef, cooked us a FANTASTIC three course dinner. Appetizers: No clue what it all was. The chef explained it to us in French, but my French is pretty poor. Despite not knowing what it was, it tasted AMAZING! The stuff in the silver bowl tasted a little like humus. If it indeed was humus, then it was the best humus I’ve EVER had! Main course: lam tajine with prunes that were stuffed with walnuts. Tasted also fantastic! We had ice cream as desert, but I had not taken a picture of that.

Amazing Kasbah in palmerie. Host was the best. Gave us a personal tour of the old Kasbah and ingenious water system. Dinner was 5 star. Merhaba Said.
