Day 1: Tangier – Chefchaouen – Fes (Approx. 340 km / 211 miles)

Your 5-day Morocco tour from Tangier begins with an early morning pick-up from your accommodation or the port in Tangier. We’ll start our scenic drive south towards the enchanting blue city of Chefchaouen (approx. 120 km), nestled in the Rif Mountains. Upon arrival, you’ll have free time to wander through its famous blue-washed streets, explore the local souks, and soak in the unique ambiance. After lunch in Chefchaouen, we will continue our journey to Fes (approx. 220 km), one of Morocco’s oldest and most historically significant imperial cities. Upon arrival in Fes, you’ll check into your traditional riad for dinner and overnight stay, preparing for a deep dive into its ancient medina tomorrow.

Day 2: Guided Tour of Fes Medina (Local exploration)

Today is dedicated to exploring the spiritual and cultural heart of Morocco. With a knowledgeable local guide, you’ll spend the entire day delving into the labyrinthine alleys of Fes el-Bali, the UNESCO-listed old medina, which is one of the world’s largest car-free urban areas.

You’ll visit significant landmarks such as the ancient Al-Qarawiyyin University, the exquisite Bou Inania Madrasa, and witness the vibrant activity of the famous Chouara Tannery. You’ll also explore various artisan workshops, seeing traditional crafts come to life. Lunch will be enjoyed within the medina. The rest of the day is at your leisure to further discover the vibrant souks or simply relax and enjoy the ambiance of your riad. This full day in Fes is a cornerstone of your 5 days Morocco itinerary.

Day 3: Fes – Ifrane – Azrou – Midelt – Ziz Valley – Merzouga Sahara Desert (Approx. 460 km / 286 miles)

Today, your tour takes you on a scenic journey into the Middle Atlas Mountains. You’ll pass through Ifrane (approx. 60 km from Fes), often referred to as the “Switzerland of Morocco” due to its alpine-style architecture. Continue to the Azrou cedar forest (approx. 30 km), where you’ll have the chance to spot wild Barbary monkeys. After a refreshing stop, you’ll pass through Midelt, known for its apples, and then drive along the stunning Ziz Valley (starting approx. 140 km from Azrou), an extensive oasis filled with date palm trees, offering breathtaking panoramic views. As the day progresses, the landscape will gradually shift to the desert, and you’ll arrive in Merzouga (approx. 230 km from Ziz Valley).

Here, you’ll meet your camel caravan and embark on an unforgettable camel trek deep into the golden Erg Chebbi dunes. Experience a mesmerizing Sahara sunset from atop a dune before arriving at your luxury desert camp for an unforgettable night with dinner under the stars and traditional Berber music around a campfire.

Your journey continues through the desert landscape, with an optional stop in Rissani, an ancient market town. From there, you’ll travel to the towering Todra Gorges (approx. 140 km), a magnificent canyon carved by the Todra River. You’ll enjoy a leisurely walk through Morocco’s most dramatic canyon, marveling at its impressive 300-meter-high walls. Afterward, you’ll continue to the Dades Valley (approx. 60 km), known for its unique rocky landscape and fascinating “monkey fingers” formations. You’ll spend the night in a beautiful hotel overlooking the valley, enjoying dinner and relaxing after a day of incredible natural wonders.

Day 5: Dades Valley – Ouarzazate – Ait Ben Haddou – High Atlas Mountains – Marrakech (Approx. 310 km / 193 miles)

Next, you’ll visit the UNESCO-listed Ait Ben Haddou (approx. 30 km), a magnificent fortified village (ksar) that has served as a filming location for blockbusters like Game of Thrones and Gladiator. After exploring this iconic site, you’ll begin your scenic drive across the majestic High Atlas Mountains via the Tizi n’Tichka Pass (approx. 180 km), offering stunning panoramic views.
