About this trip
Eighteen days across Morocco, moving from the blue-washed lanes of Chefchaouen down through Roman ruins, imperial cities and mountain valleys to the Sahara and the Atlantic coast. It's a full sweep of the country, covering a lot of ground and a lot of history along the way.
You'll stay with Amazigh families in their gites, ride a camel out into the dunes for sunset, and hike through palm groves and gorges rather than just look at them from a bus window. The pace is steady rather than lazy, built for people who want to see the range of what Morocco offers in one go.
What you'll do
- Wander the blue streets of Chefchaouen
- Explore the Roman ruins of Volubilis
- Get lost in the medieval medina of Fes
- See the clay architecture of Ait Benhaddou Kasbah
- Ride a camel into the Sahara for sunset
- Hike through palm groves, gorges and valleys
- Plenty of walking throughout, so a good level of mobility helps
- A couple of long driving days, especially heading to the Sahara and Essaouira, though there are stops along the way
- Temperatures swing hard, from desert heat to freezing nights in the mountains, so pack layers and sun protection
Worth it if you're after authentic Morocco and can tolerate patchy accommodation standards. Think twice if you need reliable pre-tour customer service or pristine hotels.
- Tour guides and drivers consistently excellent—several reviews single out guides by name for genuinely elevating the experience.
- Accommodation quality varies wildly: mold in bathrooms, dirty floors, hair in bedding, and basic desert camps with one kettle of water for 17 people.
- Intrepid's pre-tour and in-country customer service poor; TourRadar involvement needed multiple times; company unresponsive during booking issues and crises.
- Second half involves long travel days; food repetitive and occasionally sparse on protein, though some found it good quality.
