Trip Informations

Why you’ll love this trip

Trek through the dramatic red dunes of the Sahara Desert on a camel’s back, experiencing an unforgettable sunset – then stay under a blanket of North African stars in a desert camp.

Embrace the Atlantic breeze in the coastal town of Tangier and see the vivid blue hues of Chefchaouen over sunset, while you explore the houses and laneways of this surreal city.

Stay in a traditional Amazigh homestay high in the Atlas Mountains and enjoy a homecooked meal of Moroccan favourites, learning about the culture and traditions of an Indigenous population who’ve stood the test of time.

Kick back in the coastal town of Essaouira and discover the winding laneways at your own pace. Then, meet a local fisherman by the seaside and learn about his life and this traditional practice.

Explore the old medina of Marrakech and the labyrinthine medina of bustling Fes with knowledgable local guides, discovering the myriad of sights, smells and sounds along zigzagging lanes. Then, discover the colourful chaos of Djemaa el-Fna Square.

Is this trip right for you?

Don’t let the heat keep you from exploring the world! Summer temperatures can be extremely high in Morocco (over 40°C), which can make things uncomfortable. It’s essential to use sun protection, wear layers to combat the heat, and drink plenty of water.

Ramadan is an annual month-long festival, during which travel can be a rewarding cultural experience, however some regular services may not be available during the day, such as restaurants or cafes, and occasionally travel can be disrupted by events. Your leader will adjust the itinerary accordingly, but please consider this when selecting your travel dates. You’ll find dates and further information in the ‘Climate and seasonal information’ section of the Essential Trip Information.

There are a couple of long travel days on this trip, particularly the day travelling to the Sahara Desert. Rest stops will be made on the way and you’ll be rewarded with great views on the drive itself.

Itinerary

All the best bits of Morocco, from colourful cities and medinas to the mountains and the desert

If you’re looking for a two-week adventure full of Morocco’s highlights, this trip is for you! From sacred sites and bustling medinas to the expanse of the Sahara, you’ll be hitting all the popular hotspots and stopping for air in some of the country’s best scenery. Wander in the lanes of the blue city Chefchaouen, explore the Roman ruins of Volubilis and find the cultural heart of Morocco in Fes. Drive through everchanging scenery (look out for Barbary apes and nomadic shepherds along the way), ride a camel towards a desert sunset, hike through lush palm groves in Todra Valley, discover popular filming locations in World Heritage-listed Ait Benhaddou, kick back and unwind in seaside Essaouria and top it all off with the street food bazaars and performers in Djemaa el-Fna Square in Marrakech.

DAY 1
Day 1 • Casablanca
Salaam Aleikum! Welcome to Morocco. Your adventure begins today with a welcome meeting at 6 pm in the famed city of Casablanca. If you’d like to explore the city and all it has to offer, it’s recommended that you arrive a day or two early. Modelled after Marseille in France, this city is famous for its art deco buildings and the modern Hassan II Mosque. If you have time, wander the old medina and the city walls, then jump in a taxi to visit the Quartiers des Habous – the new medina. Finish the day with a walk along the Corniche, watching the locals play football on the beach or taking it easy at one of the many great cafes.

Special information
It’s very important that you attend the welcome meeting as we will be collecting insurance details and next of kin information at this time. If you are going to be late, please let your travel agent or hotel reception know. Ask reception or look for a note in the lobby for more information on where the meeting will take place.
Please be aware that some of our travellers in Casablanca are being approached by locals offering excursions before their Tuuur trip commences. This has been particularly prevalent in and around the hotels used by Intrepid. These guides are in no way connected to Tuuur Travel, and we cannot guarantee the safety or quality standards of their tours. We strongly advise customers against joining any tour offered by unauthorised guides.
DAY 2
Day 2 • Tangier/Chefchaouen
This morning, take the TGV fast train to the coastal town of Tangier – a place of strategic importance to the Mediterranean as a gateway to Africa. Head out on a short orientation walk with your leader, then enjoy some free time exploring the town. Maybe duck into Café Hafa, which has hosted celebrities in the past like Sean Connery, The Beatles and The Rolling Stones. Why not enjoy the epic view overlooking the Gibraltar while you partake in the national brew of Morocco – a steaming cup of mint tea? In the afternoon, take a private transfer to the beautiful Chefchaouen. Set against a wide valley and nestled between two peaks in the stunning Rif Mountains, much of Chefchaouen was recreated by Andalusian refugees escaping the Reconquista – so you might just feel like you're in the hills of Spain. Follow your leader on an orientation walk and head to a great sunset viewpoint overlooking the town. In the evening, if you're feeling peckish, the local goat’s cheese is a popular treat.

DAY 3
Day 3 • Chefchaouen
Today is a free day in Chefchaouen. Maybe take a guided tour of the sights, sounds and smells of the medina, or sample the delicious local specialties (the orange juice is delicious!) at a cafe in the Plaza Uta el-Hammam. Alternatively, you might prefer to get out of town and enjoy a hike and picnic in the surrounding hills. The hiking tour outside of the city is a popular option, as you can leave the shades of blue for a journey across the Rif Mountains and join your guide to Akchour Falls – a gorgeous natural wonder, abundant with lush mountains, rivers and waterfalls. In the evening, how about tucking into a tagine at a local restaurant or visiting a hammam – a traditional Moroccan spa? The night is yours to enjoy.

DAY 4
Day 4 • Fes
This morning, take a private transfer and travel through rolling hills and olive groves to the archaeological site of Volubilis. This was once a provincial Roman capital, and the remains make an undeniably impressive sight. Take a tour around the ruins with a local guide, which look spectacular in the sunlight. Don’t forget to take your camera today, as the town is filled with fantastic mosaics along the Decumanus Maximus, many of which remain fully intact. Drive onwards to Fes, where you'll spend the next two nights. Fes is the spiritual and cultural heart of Morocco – vibrant, noisy and fascinating – it really is a feast for the senses. The evening is then free for you to spend how you’d like.

Special information
Your travel time today will be approximately 4 hours. Remember to pack drinking water, a hat, sunglasses and sun cream for your tour of Volubilis, as it may get very hot and you will be exposed to the sun.
DAY 5
Day 5 • Fes
Take a guided group walking tour of the Old City this morning, known locally as Fes el Bali. Step back into the Middle Ages in the labyrinth of the medina, which is alive with craftsmen, markets, tanneries and mosques. Pass donkeys piled high with goods (this is one of the largest car-free urban zones in the world) and explore the specialty sections that divide the souk. Look out for the Medersa Bou Inania – one of the city's most beautiful buildings, recently restored and now open to tourists. Visit Medresse el Attarine and the splendid Funduk Nejjarine – a beautifully restored 18th-century inn. You'll also see the famous tannery, known for the iconic view overlooking its dye pits, and a ceramics factory where you can see potters working traditionally. In the evening, why not join your group and try some Moroccan specialities like harira (chickpea soup) and chicken-stuffed pastillas with couscous?

Included activities

Fes - Tannery visit
Special information
There will be 5 to 6 hours of walking today, but this is an integral part of experiencing Fes to the fullest.
Today's experience is also filled with shopping experiences at a few carefully selected places. If shopping is not your thing, don’t worry! Discuss other options with your tour leader beforehand and they’ll accommodate you. You may have some free time to explore at your own pace, but keep in mind that your leader won't be able to set a meeting point inside the medina as it can be quite challenging to navigate the old alleyways. If you decide to explore on your own, you can easily catch up with the group at the hotel.
DAY 6
Day 6 • Sahara Desert
Today, you’ll travel towards the mighty Sahara. It is a long drive, but there will be many opportunities to stop and admire views of local kasbahs and palmeries (valleys lush with date palms, fields and orchards). You may also have the chance to pass by nomads along their journey – these free-spirited people are born to move with their animal flocks under the open sky and they never stay settled in one place for long. Continue through barren mountainsides and fertile valleys, pausing in frontier towns like Erfoud and Rissani before reaching the end of the road at the small Saharan settlement of Merzouga. With a backdrop of the orange-coloured Erg Chebbi sand dunes, the charming Saharan village of Merzouga feels wonderfully isolated, like the modern world has left it behind. Store your main baggage in your overnight camp on the edge of the desert and mount a camel to watch the breathtaking sunset from a unique perspective, among the rolling dunes of the expansive desert. Spend the night in a desert camp under the North African stars and enjoy a homecooked feast by the fire.
Accommodation
Desert Camp (Multishare) (1 night)
Meals
Breakfast
Dinner
Included activities
Sahara Desert - Sunset Camel Ride
Special information
Your travel time today will be approximately 8 hours.
The camp is simple, with bedding and basic toilet facilities. The blankets are warm enough for most travellers between April and October, but you may like to bring your own sleeping sheet and an extra jumper from November to March if you prefer. Electricity is not available in the camp, so it’s important to come prepared with phones, cameras and everything else you may need fully charged.
The camel ride is a highlight for most in Morocco, but if you’d prefer not to, it's possible to walk alongside the caravan on the sand instead. The walk takes about an hour and is not very demanding, so you will manage with just a basic level of fitness.
DAY 7
Day 7 • El Khorbat - Todra Gorge
Walk up the nearest dune for a spectacular sunrise over the Sahara, break your fast with traditional food, and begin the drive to Todra Gorge. On the way visit the oasis museum of El Khorbat, before continuing on to the beautiful Todra Valley, dotted with mud-brick villages perched on hillsides. The remarkable scenery – sprawling green valleys and rocks sculpted into stunning formations by the wind – will be your home for the next two nights. This area is best discovered on foot, so you’ll take a short walk through the surrounding farmland.

DAY 8
Day 8 • Todra Gorge
Today, enjoy free time to explore the Todra Valley. A guided hike through the gorge and over a nearby mountain pass is highly recommended. There are a couple of circuits to choose from, but the most popular choice is a 10 km circuit that will take around 4 hours. Accompanied by a local guide, you’ll walk a trail that isn't too challenging if you have a moderate fitness level. Pass Amazigh villages, meeting locals along the way. The surrounding mountains and the famous Rose Valley in the distance make a sensational setting for a day of discovery on foot. For lunch, you can join some local ladies in their mudbrick kasbah – a fantastic opportunity to see how people live in this largely unchanged culture. If you’d rather relax, then you can simply lounge by the hotel pool and enjoy the views over the lush palmeries and soaring cliff faces.

Special information
The optional walk around Todra Gorge takes place over rocky terrain and the first part is more challenging as it winds over a steady incline. Going back down may be slippery, especially after a rainy day. Please be prepared with good walking shoes or boots and ensure you have a moderate fitness level.
DAY 9
Day 9 • Ouarzazate/Ait Benhaddou
Today, travel south to Ait Benhaddou. The scenic drive takes you past ancient kasbah ruins, former colonial military outposts, austere mountains and valleys of palm trees. Stop for lunch in Ouarzazate, where movies such as Lawrence of Arabia, The Sheltering Sky and Black Hawk Down were filmed. If there’s time, you might like to take a tour of the Atlas Movie Studios. Arrive at Ait Benhaddou – once an important stop for caravans carrying salt across the Sahara. Visit the grand kasbah with your trip leader – an impressive example of clay architecture that has been listed as a World Heritage site. In the late afternoon, enjoy Morocco's most famous cuisine with your group – couscous and tagine cooked by your host at the guesthouse where you’ll spend the night.

DAY 10
Day 10 • Aroumd
This morning, journey over the spectacular Tizi n'Tichka Pass (2260 metres above sea level) to Toubkal National Park, home to the highest mountain in North Africa. Pass snow-capped mountains and valleys in full flower along the way. At the end of the road, you’ll reach the rural village of Imlil, where you can store your main luggage and load a daypack onto a pack mule. Immerse yourself in traditional mountain village life with a short trek up to the peaceful village of Aroumd. Far from the reach of the modern world and sitting on a rocky outcrop, this town is a gorgeous place for an I’m-so-far-from-home moment. With stunning views across the High Atlas Mountains, you’ll have a unique opportunity to experience traditional Amazigh culture and spend the night in a family-run mountain home (or gite) at the foot of Mount Toubkal. Surrounded by the smell of woodstoves and bread, meet the host family and enjoy some traditional Amazigh hospitality and mouth-watering home-cooked food.

Special information
Your travel time today will be approximately 5 hours.
If you feel uncomfortable with the walk through the villages, you can opt to ride a mule instead or a car may be organized at an extra cost if you let your tour leader know in advance. You may choose to bring sturdy boots if you prefer but a pair of good walking shoes with rigid and grippy soles will be sufficient.
Facilities at the homestay are shared (both the bathroom and sleeping arrangements) but cosy, comfortable and definitely a better way to immerse yourself in the culture than a hotel.
DAY 11
Day 11 • Essaouira
Wake up early this morning for a refreshing hike through Imlil’s outlying villages – to Sidi Chamharouch. Explore rural Amazigh villages, twisting mule tracks and breathtaking mountain landscapes. Stop for breaks among imposing cliff faces and eventually reach Sidi Chamharouch – a pilgrimage site with a waterfall, a stream and a few simple houses. Enjoy a slow-cooked tagine made by a local for lunch, while enjoying incredible views of the Atlas Mountains. Take the opportunity to rest for a while and swap stories with the locals, before hiking back to Aroumd. Later, head towards the Atlantic Coast to the old fishing town of Essaouira. Sandstone walkways contrast whitewashed houses, bright blue sky and the surrounding beaches and dunes. This artists' town was once home to sizeable British and Jewish populations, and its charm has seduced people like Orson Welles and Jimi Hendrix, who (according to local legend) spent much of his time here in the 1960s. Your tour leader will guide you through some options for the rest of the day – the seafood auctions are always a fun thing to see. Maybe you’d like to visit one of the small local cafes and do a spot of people-watching. Tonight, you’re free to indulge in a fresh seafood dinner or stroll by the beach in the evening light.

DAY 12
Day 12 • Essaouira
Today, join a local guide for a walking tour through the old medina, Jewish mellah, port and Skala (sea wall). Essaouira is one of the oldest port cities in the country, and fishing here is still quite traditional. You’ll have the chance to meet one of the expert fishermen in the port, who will tell the group all about their story and show you some of the tricks they use, what type of fish to catch and what seasons mean to them. After, enjoy some free time. These narrow streets, mostly free of cars, feel like the days of sea pirates are not too distant. Browse the little shops and art galleries that dot the town and discover the gorgeous scent of the burled Thuya wood – delicately formed and inlaid here, gaining a reputation as one of Essaouira’s specialities. The scent of the oils that are used to polish the coloured wood permeates the air, making walking through these streets incredibly pleasant. Why not order a freshly cooked plate of the day’s freshest catch for lunch? Later, maybe indulge in a hammam (Moroccan bathhouse and spa) or relax at your accommodation.

DAY 13
Day 13 • Marrakech
This morning after breakfast, take a shared local bus to Marrakech – the ancient, exotic city wrapped in European modernity. Embark on a walking tour with your trip leader through the bustling medina to meet local shop owners and craftsmen and learn the secrets of navigating through the zigzagging lanes. Stop to try different snacks and local favourites, like Moroccan doughnuts and mint tea, traditional bread, olives, nuts, dates and orange juice, and harira (chickpea soup). Be enticed by the alluring scents and brilliant colours of the spice markets, the sounds of the musicians, the rich folds of carpets, and the beautifully perfumed gardens. Tonight, maybe join the pulsing crowds for dinner at the famous Djemaa el-Fna Square – one of the largest public spaces in the world and unique to Marrakech. When night falls on this square, it transforms into a hive of activity. Henna painters, performers and storytellers share the square with a street food bazaar packed with stalls loaded with Moroccan delicacies. For dinner tonight, you might like to try the local snail soup and finish your evening with a cup of tea in a rooftop restaurant overlooking the square.

DAY 14
Day 14 • Marrakech
It’s time to explore Marrakech at your own pace, today. In the seemingly endless mosaic of souqs, each is devoted to a separate trade – pottery, woodwork, copper, leather, carpets or spices. Watch skilled artisans perfect their craft, practice your haggling skills or take a break from the hustle to share a tagine with your new friends. Maybe visit Koutoubia Mosque and its 12th-century minaret, which was the famous prototype for the Giralda tower in Seville. Wander through the tropical gardens of the French painter Jacques Majorelle (now owned by Yves Saint Laurent) or check out the Palais Bahia, a superb example of Muslim architecture. This evening, you’ll likely be drawn back to the Djemaa el-Fna and its surrounding medina for dinner at one of the many outdoor restaurants lining the square – a perfect spot for a farewell dinner.

This was my first experience with a tour group of any type and was very pleased. The size of our group was perfect, the attentiveness of our leader was incredible and my appreciation for Moroccan and its beautiful people will be something I value forever.

Ellen

This trip was a wonderful way to see so many different aspects of Morocco. I was astounded by how different each of the cities were. I loved the Sahara stay, and I didn't expect the mountains to be so impressive!

The 'Best of Morocco' small group tour, led by Mohammed, was exceptional. The reality of the experience exceeded even the well written day by day itinerary provided by Intrepid. The diverse terrain covered as astonishing as one day we were on the beautiful blue coast overlooking the Sea of Gibraltor and then the next day we were hiking up the High Atlas Mtgs interacting with Berbere shepherds. On occasion, Mohammed would have the driver pull over the van and then lead us through the most authentic souks which were filled with the daily goings on of small village market life. The time spent in the van moving from location to location allowed needed rest times, work opportunities, chats with fellow travellers, and history/culture updates from Mohammed. There were many small 'perks' that were unexpected on the trip, like laundry service twice, food tour samples, noos noos (coffee) stops, plentiful 'happy room' (bathroom) stops. Mohammed was behind the scenes making getting from one location to another seamless whether it was train, bus, donkey, or camel travel! The people of Mohammed were kind, playful and tolerant of our inquisitive stares and haggling blunders. Overall, this was one of the best trips of my life so far and I am intrigued to look into more Intrepid destinations. Good job Mohammed!!

Our "The Best of Morocco" trip was an outstanding holiday. Under the professional and capable leadership of our guide, Mohamed, we experienced a truely unique culture in a widely diverse country. Going from the fringe of Sahara desert to the snow capped Atlas mountains to the Atlantic Ocean it was wonderful trip.

Intrepid’s Best of Morocco was an unforgettable experience! As a solo traveller, our guide, Mohamed, was incredible! His knowledge, passion, and local connections made every stop meaningful. He navigated challenges effortlessly, kept the group engaged, and championed responsible tourism. If this is Intrepid’s standard, I’m already planning my next trip. I highly recommend it!

The Best of Morocco is a great trip, with mountains, canyons, cities, beaches, ruins, quaint towns, and dessert--all in one. It's amazing. I traveled with 14 other people from Austrailia, New Zealand, England, the US and Switzerland, with our leader Brahim who was from the mountain town we visited. He had great insights to share. The group was fantastic, and when we weren't all fantastic, Brahim was calm and patient. With local guides in each of the places we visited, we learned and saw a lot, had great food, walked a lot of miles and drank a good amount of mint tea. My tips: Leave the sleeping bag at home, there are plenty of blankets I promise. The breakfasts are perfectly adequate and always had protein, pack light with the knowledge that you'll be moving around every day or two, and have a great time!

I've travelled with Intrepid on multiple trips now and genuinely cannot recommend them enough - the trips are thoughtfully planned, sustainable and provide a fantastic experience. Morocco was gorgeous and I feel so lucky to have experience it the way I did.

This trip was absolutely fantastic. I had a great time and it really cured my need for adventure! The itinerary was very well varied with trips to cities and Medinas, and time spent in the desert, mountains, by the ocean and time in nature. Something for everyone, highly recommend!
