Trip Overview

Morocco divides into the intricate and the immense: the walled medinas of Fes and Marrakech on one side, the Atlas passes and Saharan dunes on the other. This itinerary gives you both, in that order.

Local guides meet you in each city, and the desert crossing is broken over two days so the long stretches never feel like a transfer.

Touring in Morocco runs at two levels. Standard departures travel as a small shared group with a hand-picked local guide. Distinguished programs are private throughout, with your own guide and vehicle for the whole journey. Both are quoted rather than sold at a fixed price, so the figure reflects your dates, your party size and the hotels you choose.

Published programs include Best of Morocco (6 nights), Imperial Cities of Morocco (6 nights), Marrakech, Desert & Ocean (7 nights), The Glory of Morocco (8 nights), Royal Touch of Morocco (8 nights), Splendors of Morocco (10 nights) and Ultimate Morocco (13 nights). If none of them fits, we will build one around your dates. Custom itineraries are what we do.
