Welcome to Morocco!

Upon arrival at Casablanca Airport, you’ll be greeted by our friendly driver, who will assist with transfers to your respective accommodations.

If most flights arrive in the morning and the group is settled comfortably, we can arrange a short introductory tour of Casablanca. Highlights may include the majestic Hassan II Mosque, the traditional Habous Quarter, and the scenic Corniche.

If arrival is later in the day, you can simply relax and unwind after your journey. In that case, the city tour will be scheduled for the following morning, allowing you to begin your Moroccan adventure feeling refreshed and ready.

After breakfast, depart for Rabat, Morocco’s capital, where you’ll explore landmarks such as the Hassan Tower, the Mausoleum of Mohammed V, and the picturesque Kasbah of the Udayas. Following sightseeing and lunch, the journey continues through the stunning Rif Mountains toward Chefchaouen, the enchanting “Blue Town.” Upon arrival, check into your accommodation and enjoy a peaceful overnight stay.

After taking in the charm of Chefchaouen, we will transfer you to Fes, with stops along the way at the ancient Roman ruins of Volubilis and the imperial city of Meknes. Upon arrival in Fes, check into your accommodation and enjoy a restful overnight stay.

After enjoying a delicious Moroccan breakfast, set off for a guided discovery of Fes, Morocco’s oldest imperial city and a treasure trove of culture. Accompanied by your local guide, explore the intricate alleys of the UNESCO-listed medina, home to iconic sites such as Al Quaraouiyine University, the Bou Inania Madrasa, and the centuries-old tanneries that are still in operation today.

After the tour, return to your accommodation in Fes for overnight stay.

After breakfast, depart Fes and begin your journey south through the Middle Atlas Mountains. Stop in the charming town of Ifrane, known for its European-style architecture and pristine landscapes. Continue through the cedar forest near Azrou, where Barbary macaques can often be seen among the ancient trees.

Enjoy a traditional dinner at camp and spend the night in a private tent under the starry desert sky.

After breakfast, embark on a full-day 4x4 desert excursion, exploring the captivating landscapes and cultural highlights of the Erg Chebbi region.

As daylight breaks over the golden dunes, we leave the calm of the desert behind and set out toward southern Morocco’s most scenic landscapes. Our first stop is the magnificent Todra Gorge, where towering rock walls rise dramatically above a narrow riverbed lined with palm trees and Berber villages.

The journey continues through the enchanting Dades Valley—also known as the Valley of a Thousand Kasbahs—where every twist in the road reveals ancient fortresses, lush oases, and striking geological formations.

By late afternoon, arrive in Boumalne Dades, a charming town nestled in the valley, where you’ll enjoy a peaceful evening amid stunning landscapes.

In Ouarzazate, enjoy a visit to the famous film studios, where many international movies were shot, and explore some of the city’s historic kasbahs. After your visit, continue your journey through the scenic Tizi n’Tichka Pass in the High Atlas Mountains, returning to Marrakesh by late afternoon or early evening.

After breakfast in your hotel, embark on a day of exploration in Marrakech, visiting the most important historical and cultural sites, including the Majorelle Gardens, the Koutoubia Tower, the Saadian Tombs, and the Bahia Palace. Dive into the bustling atmosphere of Jamaa El Fna square and explore the vibrant souks. After a day of discovery, spend the night in Marrakech.­
