Upon arrival in Marrakech, you’ll be greeted at the airport and transferred to your accommodation. Settle in and begin to soak up the vibrant atmosphere of the “Red City.” If time permits, take a short drive to get your first glimpse of the city’s lively streets.
A local guide will lead you on a full-day tour of Marrakech. You’ll visit architectural gems like the Bahia Palace and the Saadian Tombs. The tour also includes a visit to the Koutoubia Mosque, navigating the bustling souks of the Medina, and experiencing the lively Jemaa el-Fna Square. The day concludes with a tranquil visit to the Majorelle Garden.
Your Morocco Itinerary 8 Days begins as you cross the majestic High Atlas Mountains via the scenic Tizi n’Tichka Pass. The road leads to the UNESCO World Heritage site of Ait Ben Haddou, a fortified village and famous film location. Continue on to Ouarzazate, known as the “Hollywood of Morocco,” before reaching the serene Dades Valley for the night.
Today, you’ll travel from the rocky landscapes of Dades to the vast, golden dunes of Merzouga. You’ll pass through the impressive Todra Gorge, with its towering limestone cliffs. In the afternoon, you’ll begin a camel trek into the Sahara Desert, where you’ll witness a spectacular sunset over the dunes before arriving at a traditional desert camp for a night of dinner and Berber music under the stars.
Wake up to a desert sunrise before beginning the drive to Fes. The route takes you through the beautiful Ziz Valley, known for its extensive palm groves. You will also pass through the Middle Atlas Mountains, stopping at the cedar forest of Azrou to see the Barbary macaques and the alpine-style town of Ifrane before arriving in Fes.
Today is dedicated to exploring Fes, the spiritual and cultural heart of Morocco, with a local guide. You’ll enter through the grand Bab Bou Jeloud gate and wander through the labyrinthine streets of the ancient Medina. Highlights include the Nejjarine Museum of Wooden Arts and Crafts, the Bou Inania Madrasa, and the famous Chouara Tannery, where you can witness the traditional leather-making process.
Leave Fes behind as you travel to Casablanca, with stops along the way. Your first stop is the imperial city of Meknes, home to the majestic Bab Mansour gate. You’ll also visit the impressive Heri es-Souani granaries. Continue to Rabat, Morocco’s capital, to see the Hassan Tower and the picturesque Kasbah of the Udayas, before finally reaching Casablanca for your overnight stay.
