From the architectural marvel of the Hassan II Mosque, you will journey to the imperial capitals of Rabat, Meknes, and Fes. You'll lose yourself in the blue-washed lanes of Chefchaouen, cross the majestic Atlas Mountains, and experience the highlight for many: a camel trek into the Sahara desert for an unforgettable night under the stars. The journey culminates in the vibrant, bustling 'Red City' of Marrakech. This tour is a whirlwind of color, flavor, and unforgettable moments.
Your 7 days in Morocco begin with a pickup from the Casablanca airport or your hotel. We'll start by visiting the magnificent Hassan II Mosque, a stunning example of Moroccan architecture. Afterwards, we drive to Rabat, the capital city. Here, you'll explore key landmarks like the Hassan Tower, the Mausoleum of Mohammed V, and the historic Kasbah of the Udayas before settling into your riad.
Today, we journey north into the picturesque Rif Mountains to discover Chefchaouen, the famous Blue City. After checking into your hotel, you'll have the afternoon free to wander through its charming, blue-washed streets and alleys, camera in hand. Discover hidden squares, artisan shops, and enjoy the relaxed mountain atmosphere.
After breakfast, we travel towards Fes, stopping at the ancient Roman ruins of Volubilis, a UNESCO World Heritage site with well-preserved mosaics. We'll then continue to the imperial city of Meknes to see the monumental Bab Mansour gate before arriving in Fes in the evening for your overnight stay in a traditional riad.
Immerse yourself in the cultural and spiritual heart of Morocco with a full-day guided tour of Fes. A local expert will lead you through the labyrinthine alleys of the Fes el-Bali medina, visiting the famous tanneries, Al-Qarawiyyin University, ancient medersas, and bustling souks. It's a journey back in time.
Today is a spectacular travel day as we cross the Middle Atlas Mountains. We'll pass through Ifrane, the "Switzerland of Morocco," and the cedar forests of Azrou, home to Barbary macaques. After lunch in Midelt, we continue through the scenic Ziz Valley, arriving at the edge of the Sahara. Here, you'll trade your vehicle for a camel and trek into the Erg Chebbi dunes to a desert camp for a magical night.
Wake up early to a breathtaking desert sunrise. After breakfast, we leave the Sahara and head towards the Todra Gorges, a massive canyon perfect for a short walk. We'll then travel along the Road of a Thousand Kasbahs through the Dades Valley and Rose Valley, arriving in Ouarzazate, the "Hollywood of Africa," for the night.
Our final day takes us to the iconic Ait Ben Haddou Kasbah, a UNESCO World Heritage site you'll recognize from films like "Gladiator." After exploring the ancient village, we'll drive over the spectacular Tizi n'Tichka Pass in the High Atlas Mountains. We arrive in Marrakech in the late afternoon, where your unforgettable 7-day Morocco itinerary concludes.
