Day-by-Day Program
Your private driver meets you each morning. All stops are flexible — this is your trip.
Cross the High Atlas via Tizi n'Tichka (2,260m) with sweeping mountain views. Stop at Aït-Ben-Haddou UNESCO kasbah — Morocco's most cinematic site, used in Gladiator, Game of Thrones and dozens of other productions. Continue to Ouarzazate — the "Hollywood of Africa" — for the night.
East along the Route des Kasbahs through the red-rock Dades Gorge. Then the dramatic Todra Gorge — 300-metre limestone walls narrowing to 10 metres. Across the Tafilalet plains to Merzouga as the first dunes appear on the horizon. Sunset camel ride into the Sahara.
Wake before dawn to climb the 150m Erg Chebbi dunes and watch the Saharan sunrise. Rest, explore or take a quad bike. At dusk, mount a camel and ride to your private desert camp for dinner under a sky full of stars — one of the most extraordinary nights in Morocco.
Drive north through the Ziz Gorges and date-palm palmery. Lunch in Midelt — apple country at 1,500m altitude. Then the Azrou cedar forest — ancient trees and Barbary macaque monkeys. Cross through alpine Ifrane and descend to the walls of Fès by evening.
A full day in Fès el-Bali — the world's largest car-free urban area and one of the best-preserved medieval cities on earth. Explore the labyrinthine lanes with a local guide. Visit the Chouara tanneries, Al-Quaraouiyine university (founded 859 AD), and the stunning Bou Inania madrasa. Mint tea on a rooftop terrace to end the day.
Head northwest into the Rif Mountains to reach Chefchaouen — Morocco's most photogenic city, where walls, steps, pots and doorways are painted in every shade of blue. Spend the afternoon exploring the medina, the kasbah gardens and the Spanish mosque viewpoint. An unmissable Moroccan experience.
Drive west toward the Atlantic. Option to stop in Rabat — the Kasbah des Oudayas, the Mohammed V Mausoleum and the ancient Chellah necropolis. Continue south to Casablanca for a visit to the Hassan II Mosque — the world's third-largest mosque, dramatically built over the Atlantic Ocean. End at Casablanca airport or hotel.

Frequently Asked Questions
The standard 7-day circuit ends in Casablanca, which has direct international flights to most European cities. We can also end in Rabat, Tangier or return to Marrakech (adding one travel day). Ask us when booking.
Absolutely — Chefchaouen deserves at least 2 nights. We can adjust the circuit to give you more time there and shorten or remove the Casablanca leg. Just let us know your priorities when booking.
Yes — private tours are ideal for families. We pace the days to suit your group and can arrange shorter drives, child-friendly meals and activities. The desert camp and camel ride are highlights for children. Minimum age for camel riding is around 5 years.
September to May gives the best conditions across all destinations — mild desert nights, green Atlas and comfortable city temperatures. March–April are particularly beautiful for Chefchaouen (fresh after winter rain). Avoid July–August for the desert; Merzouga reaches 45°C.
