About this trip
Seven days across Morocco, moving from the Atlantic coast to the Sahara and back to Marrakech. You cover a lot of ground — cities, mountains, valleys and desert — with a guide leading the way throughout.
The route takes in Casablanca's Hassan II Mosque, the blue-washed streets of Chefchaouen, the old medina of Fes, and the Roman ruins at Volubilis, before heading into the desert at Merzouga and the dramatic scenery of the Dades Valley.
It finishes in Marrakech, after passing through Kalaat Mgouna, Skoura and Ait Benhaddou along the way — a trip built around variety rather than lingering in one place.
What you'll do
- Visit the Hassan II Mosque in Casablanca
- Wander the blue streets of Chefchaouen
- Explore the medina and historic sites of Fes
- See the Roman ruins at Volubilis
- Spend time in the Sahara Desert at Merzouga
- Pass through the Dades Valley and the kasbah at Ait Benhaddou
- Fast-paced — you change location most days, covering coast, mountains, desert and cities in a week
- Involves long drives between stops, including the run out to Merzouga and back
Worth it if you want a well-guided cultural immersion with reliable accommodation and guides. Think twice if you're budget-conscious about entrance fees and prefer minimal driving days.
- Guides (Abdul, Anouar, Zakaria, Ismail) consistently knowledgeable, friendly, attentive to group needs and safety.
- Desert camp and Sahara camel ride genuinely memorable; riads in Marrakech and cities offer authentic, comfortable stays.
- Entrance fees to Hassan II mosque and other attractions not included in tour price; heavy driving days despite short timeframe.
- Restaurant recommendations patchy; one diner in Chefchaouen served inedible chicken, though guide accommodation otherwise solid.
