The Majesty of Morocco

Tour Itinerary

• Day 1 • UK - Marrakech

  Our nationwide shared chauffeur service collects you from home for your flight to Marrakech.

• Day 2 • Casablanca

  This morning is free to explore the city. Maps aren’t much help in this web of streets, but getting lost here is half the fun, and an opportunity to discover so much more. This afternoon head to Casablanca.

• Day 3 • Casablanca - Rabat

  The city of Casablanca is a mixing pot of influences; the Moors, Moroccans and French have all played their part, making it a fascinating place to explore on our city tour. The minaret of the Hassan II Mosque is a particularly spectacular coastline landmark. There’s also the Corniche beachside area for lovely views of the sea. This afternoon, head for Rabat, for a tour of the city. See the intricately decorated Mohammed V Mausoleum and the 12th-century Tour Hassan.

• Day 4 • Meknes - Volubilis - Fez

  Leave Rabat this morning for the Imperial City of Meknes. The sultan’s palace was said to rival Versailles, but since a powerful earthquake, only the Old Granaries and stables remain. Continue past the Holy City of Moulay Idriss, a site of pilgrimage named after the great grandson of the prophet Muhammed. Later, proceed to the Roman city of Volubilis, a huge archaeological site renowned for its well-preserved mosaic floors. Even though only 25% has been uncovered so far, you'll get a fascinating insight into Roman life in North Africa.

• Day 5 • Fez

  This morning visit the oldest Imperial City in Morocco beginning with the Medina Fez El Bali or Old Fez, where old twisting alleys have been bustling with artisans and merchants for nearly a millennium. Continue through the labyrinthine streets to the Karaouine quarters - the spiritual heart of the city.

• Day 6 • Erfoud

  Stop at Ifrane, a leafy, 20th-century town that’s a popular ski resort for the affluent during winter months, before continuing to the Middle Atlas Mountains and Erfoud. The day concludes with a trip in a 4WD vehicle, to the edge of the hot Sahara desert.

• Day 7 • The Road of a Thousand Kasbahs - Dades

  Travel along the Road of a Thousand Kasbahs. En route, stop at the Todgha Gorge. At nearly 400 metres in height in places, it’s spectacular - a true highlight of our Morocco tours. There's ime to explore the canyon before continuing.

• Day 8 • Marrakech

  This morning, visit the wonderful Kasbah Taourirt and then head to UNESCO-protected Ait Benhaddou. You may recognise this impressive fortified city, which can be traced back to the 11th century.

Continue onwards, and ascend the High Atlas Mountains to the breathtaking Tizi n’Tichka pass - the highest in the country - before arriving at your hotel in Marrakech.
