At 8:00 am you will be picked up from your hotel in Marrakech in a private air-conditioned vehicle for departure to Casablanca. Upon arrival in Casablanca, you will visit the stunning Hassan II Mosque, the country’s largest sanctuary.
You will continue the excursion to Rabat, the capital of Morocco. In Rabat, discover Méchouar, the walls that surround the Royal Palace, followed by the Kasbah of the Udayas and the magnificent Mausoleum of Mohammed V. At the end of the tour, you will be dropped off at your hotel in Rabat.
After breakfast, you will be picked up from your hotel in a private car and will be driven to Meknes, one of the most important imperial cities in Morocco. This city houses luxury palaces and beautiful mosques, as well as one of the most famous souks.
Next, you will be led to the Roman Ruins of Volubilis. Founded in the third century B.C, Volubilis was an important settlement of the Roman Empire. In the evening, you will drive to Fez, where you will spend the night.
After breakfast at the hotel, you will spend the whole day exploring the fascinating city of Fez accompanied by a professional English-speaking guide. This is the oldest imperial city of Morocco, established in the eighth century by Idris II of Morocco.
You will also have a chance to discover the city at night on your own. The rest of the day is at leisure.
After breakfast at the hotel in the early morning, you will be picked up by a private car to start today's excursion. The first stop of the day will be Ifrane, Morocco’s “Little Switzerland”. Then, as you drive through the cedar forests of Arzou, make sure to look out for Barbary apes, who live in these trees.
Cross Ziz Valley and its dramatic gorges, visiting the villages of Midelt and Erfoud. From Erfoud, take a dirt road into the desert until you get to the small village of Merzouga in the southeast of Morocco. You will spend the night in a hotel at the edge of the sandy dunes.
Explore the desert for a whole day. Plow through the endless fields of dunes on your 4x4, visit Nomad settlements, marvel at the various oasis, and admire the dunes of Erg Chebbi spreading 50 kilometers from north to south. Sitting on the dunes is the charming village of Khamlia, famous for the Gnawa music group which you will visit.
At sunset, you will climb onto a camel and enjoy a slightly bumpy ride to the Berber desert camp, where you will have a traditional meal and spend the night.
After getting up early to witness an unforgettable sunrise, your camel will take you back to your hotel, where you will have breakfast and a refreshing shower (depending on the type of camp, your breakfast and shower might be before the camel ride).
Today you will visit the Todgha Gorges, one of the most spectacular canyons in the world. The day tour comes to an end at Dades Valley.
After breakfast, we'll drive to the Dadès Gorge taking the Route of the Thousand Kasbahs through the Valley of the Roses, where you'll have time to explore the area on your own. The next stop will be the Skoura Palm Grove, home to the Kasbah Amridil.
You'll then make your way to Ouarzazate where you will visit Taourirt Kasbah and spend the night.
On the last day, you will be fascinated with the Ksar of Ait Ben-Haddou, a magnificent example of earthen buildings surrounded by a defensive wall which is typical of southern Morocco. Next cross the Atlas Mountains through the Tizi n'Tichka mountain pass, 2,260 meters high, and drive back to Marrakech.
