From Marrakesh :Private Tour Of Imperial Cities & the Desert

Start & end in Marrakesh 9 days Up to 30

About this trip

Nine days from Marrakesh through Morocco's imperial cities and out into the Sahara, travelling as a private group with your own guide throughout.

You take in Fes, Rabat and Meknes, each with its own history and layout of medinas, palaces and monuments, before heading to the desert for a proper change of pace.

In the Sahara you swap city walking for camel treks, sand dunes and a night under canvas in a Berber camp, with music and time alongside local nomads.

What you'll do

  • Explore the medinas and monuments of Fes, Rabat and Meknes
  • Camel trek into the Sahara dunes
  • Try sandboarding on the desert sands
  • Spend a night in a Berber tent camp
  • Share music with nomads in the desert
Good to know
  • Private tour — it's just your group and your guide, so the pace can flex to suit you
  • Rated easy, so it suits families and those who prefer a gentler pace
  • Fully guided throughout, with transport and logistics handled for you
What travellers actually say

Worth it if you want a well-organized private desert tour with strong local guides and drivers. Think twice if you dislike long car days on the shorter itinerary option.

  • Driver Karim and Moustapha were consistently professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely attentive to comfort throughout.
  • The 3-day option involves lengthy car hours; reviewers explicitly recommend upgrading to 5 days to avoid fatigue.
  • Camel sunset rides and overnight desert camping under stars were genuine standout, unforgettable moments for multiple travellers.
  • Tour operator Noureddine and team responsive pre-booking; itinerary customizable to your priorities rather than rigid.
