Your adventure begins in Casablanca, Morocco’s largest city and economic hub. Upon arrival, a private driver will transfer you to Rabat, the capital city.

Wander through the Chellah Necropolis and the medina to see Moroccan craftsmanship up close.
Next, travel to Chefchaouen, famously called the “Blue City.” Stroll through the medina’s winding streets lined with bright blue and white houses, visit the Grand Mosque and kasbah, and relax by Ras El Ma Spring. End the day with a sunset at the Spanish Mosque for panoramic views of the Rif Mountains.
Continue south to Fes, the oldest imperial city in Morocco. Stop at the Roman ruins of Volubilis, exploring well-preserved mosaics and temples. Visit Meknes, an imperial city with grand gates, medina streets, and the Bou Inania Madrasa.
In Fes, wander the medieval medina, Al-Qarawiyyin University, and colorful souks. Visit the Mellah, Fes el Jdid, and the Marinid Tombs for breathtaking city views. Experience the local culture, craftsmanship, and architecture that have defined Fes for centuries.
Travel through the Middle Atlas Mountains and Ziz Valley before arriving at Merzouga, on the edge of the Sahara Desert. Prepare for a camel ride through the rolling Erg Chebbi dunes, witnessing a mesmerizing desert sunset. Spend the night in a traditional desert camp under a sky filled with stars, enjoying Berber music and local cuisine.
The next morning, catch the sunrise over the dunes and explore nearby Saharan villages. Visit Khemliya to experience Berber music and culture, then head west through Rissani and Tinerhir, stopping at the Todra Gorge for a scenic walk or swim in the shallow river.
Head west through the Valley of a Thousand Kasbahs, passing traditional mud-brick fortresses and palm groves. Stop in Ouarzazate, Morocco’s “Hollywood of the Desert,” for a studio visit or to explore Taourirt Kasbah.
Continue to the UNESCO World Heritage site of Aït Benhaddou, a traditional ksar known for its iconic mud-brick architecture featured in films like Gladiator and Game of Thrones. Cross the High Atlas Mountains via Tizi n’Tichka Pass, with views of Mount Toubkal.
Arrive in Marrakech, where history and modernity blend. Explore Jemaa el-Fna square, the souks, Bahia Palace, Le Jardin Secret, and the Koutoubia Mosque. Discover the vibrant culture, street performers, and flavors of Morocco’s Red City.
Travel to the coastal town of Essaouira, known for its breezy medina, historic ramparts, and fishing port. Walk along the Skala de la Kasbah, explore the medina and harbor, and enjoy freshly caught seafood. Visit the Portuguese Castelo Real, defensive towers, and Jewish heritage sites including Haim Pinto Synagogue.
Spend a free day to soak up the relaxed atmosphere. Shop in the medina, stroll the windswept beach, or try kitesurfing. Essaouira offers a peaceful contrast to Marrakech’s bustle, making it the perfect coastal retreat.
