In this 7-Day Tour from Casablanca to Marrakech, you will get to wander around both Morocco’s desert as well as its imperial cities. Get your cameras ready as there will be several photo opportunities along the road where you can capture the magnificent panoramic natural scenes in every stop of our tour.
Spend a week in Morocco and get inspired by this suggested itinerary. Morocco has a lot to offer, from historic medinas and high-altitude mountain passes to enormous sand dunes and starry nights in the desert.
The tour will begin in Casablanca. After touring and enjoying Rabat’s (the capital of Morocco) main attractions, we’ll drive to reach the blue pearl of Morocco, Chefchaouen. Discover the blue lanes of Chefchaouen, the Roman remains of Volubilis and Meknes city, and spend a whole day seeing the main attractions of Fes.
You’ll pass by Ifrane, Morocco’s Switzerland, and the Azrou’s cedar forest on your way to the Sahara desert. After arriving in Merzouga, you will go on a camel trekking expedition across the Erg Chebbi desert sand dunes, and you will watch a stunning sunset from the top of a high dune. An overnight stay awaits you in a desert camp. By driving from Merzouga to Marrakech, you’ll pass through Todra gorges, Dades Gorges, Roses Valley, and several lovely Berber settlements.
