Dive into the heart of Morocco on this unforgettable 8-day journey from the ancient imperial city of Fes to the vibrant energy of Marrakech. This adventure seamlessly blends cultural immersion with natural wonder, guiding you from labyrinthine medinas across the Atlas Mountains and deep into the golden Sahara for a magical night under the stars.
Welcome to Fes! After settling into your accommodation, your adventure begins in the ancient medina, a bustling UNESCO World Heritage site. Wander through maze-like alleyways to the historic Al Quaraouiyine University and witness age-old traditions at the vibrant Chouara Tanneries. The day concludes with an authentic Moroccan dinner in a charming local riad.
Today’s journey takes you south, crossing the scenic Middle Atlas Mountains. We’ll pass through fragrant cedar forests, pausing to spot the native Barbary macaques, before stopping for lunch in Midelt. From there, the landscape transforms as we descend into the Ziz Valley, a stunning canyon sheltering a lush ribbon of palm groves. As evening approaches, the golden dunes of Erg Chebbi rise on the horizon, signaling your arrival in Merzouga.
Begin your day with a thrilling 4×4 excursion to explore the Sahara’s vast expanse. This adventure connects you with the region’s soul as you listen to hypnotic Gnawa rhythms in Khamlia village and share a traditional mint tea with a nomadic family. In the afternoon, trade wheels for a camel and embark on a memorable trek across the sculpted dunes to witness a spectacular desert sunset. Your destination is a secluded luxury camp, where an unforgettable night of Berber hospitality and stargazing awaits.
Awaken to a breathtaking desert sunrise over the dunes. After breakfast, our journey continues towards the magnificent Todra Gorge. Here, you can take a memorable walk between its colossal 300-meter-high canyon walls. From there, we travel onward to the scenic Dades Valley, a region famed for its dramatic landscapes, where you will spend the night.
After admiring the Dades Valley’s unique rock formations, our route follows the legendary ‘Road of a Thousand Kasbahs’ to Ouarzazate, Morocco’s cinematic capital. The journey’s highlight is a visit to the iconic Ksar of Aït Ben Haddou, a magnificent UNESCO World Heritage site. Finally, we embark on the stunning drive over the High Atlas Mountains via the breathtaking Tizi n’Tichka pass, descending into the vibrant city of Marrakech.
Today is dedicated to uncovering the treasures of the “Red City.” Your guided tour will reveal the opulent Bahia Palace, the historic Saadian Tombs, and the tranquil, cobalt-blue Majorelle Garden. Later, lose yourself in the sensory wonders of the bustling souks, a perfect opportunity to find spices, lanterns, and artisan crafts.
Today, Marrakech is yours to discover at your own pace. Choose your own adventure: master the art of tagine in a local cooking class, rejuvenate with a traditional hammam spa experience, or venture out on an optional day trip to the scenic Atlas Mountains.
Enjoy a final Moroccan breakfast and take a moment to reflect on your incredible journey through imperial cities, vast deserts, and stunning mountains. Filled with cherished memories, you will be transferred to the airport for your departure.
