Morocco Adventure

Day 1: Arrive and meet the group Your adventure begins in Morocco’s largest city, right on the coast. We’ll pick you up from the airport and take you to your hotel, where you can meet your group, grab a bite, and start getting excited. The real fun starts tomorrow!

Day 2: Mosques, monuments & Chefchaouen We start the day at the Hassan II Mosque in Casablanca - an enormous and striking landmark. Then we head to Rabat to explore the Hassan Tower and the Mausoleum of Mohammed V, marvels of Arab-Andalusian architecture. Later, we’ll arrive in Chefchaouen. Settle in over dinner and get ready - tomorrow promises an unforgettable day.

Day 3: The Blue City and waterfalls In Chefchaouen, we’ll roam the twisting blue streets and hidden alleyways, discovering the town’s charm around every corner. Then it’s off to the Akchour Waterfalls, where you can plunge into the cool mountain waters and let the scenery take your breath away.

Day 4: Roman Ruins and arrive in Fes We leave the Blue City behind and make our way to Fes, stopping at Volubilis along the way. Wander among its well-preserved Roman ruins, with ancient columns, mosaics, and history around every corner. In the afternoon, we’ll reach Fes - a city that’s stayed true to itself, full of local character and the authentic feel of Morocco.

Day 5: Local medinas and hands-on crafts We kick off the day with a walking tour through the heart of Fes Medina, where every street bursts with colour, noise, and the scent of spices - it feels like stepping back in time. After soaking it all in, it’s your turn to get creative: try your hand at pottery and zellige mosaic-making, two of Fes’ most iconic crafts.

Day 6: Traditional Berber village & mint tea As we begin the long drive to the Sahara, we’ll stop in Midelt and visit a traditional Berber village tucked in the foothills of the Atlas Mountains. Here, a local family will welcome you with mint tea and Moroccan treats, giving you a taste of everyday life in the region. Small change: Have tea with a Berber family in their village for a genuine cultural exchange that supports rural communities and keeps local traditions alive.

Day 7: Sahara Desert camp Today we make our way to the heart of the Sahara. Along the way, we’ll visit another local family for lunch and a hands-on cooking demonstration of traditional Moroccan dishes. Then comes the highlight: a night under the desert sky. We’ll ride in 4x4s over the dunes to reach our camp, where you can explore on foot, hop on a camel, try sandboarding, and watch the sunset transform the desert around you. Small Change: Our camels are handled by local Berber families who have cared for these animals for generations - rested, well-fed, and treated as the working companions they are.

Day 8: Dunes to pool Take a breather today and enjoy the desert at a slower pace. Start with a sunrise stroll through the dunes, then hop in a 4x4 for a short drive back to Merzouga. Our hotel is right on the desert’s edge, so you’re already there. The rest of the day is yours - swim, sunbathe, or just kick back and do nothing.

Day 9: Todra Gorge & Ouarzazate It’s time to trade desert sands for mountain scenery. We’ll start by visiting the underground water tunnels of Ouattou Khetaras, then take a walk through Todra Gorge, where massive rock walls rise on either side. Tonight we settle in Ouarzazate, ready for the next day’s journey further into the mountains.

Day 10: Movie sets & mountain peaks Today, we head to Ait Benhaddou, a legendary site that’s been featured in Gladiator, Game of Thrones, and numerous other films. After a stroll through its historic streets, the journey continues to the mountain town of Imlil, nestled among dramatic peaks and valleys, with Mount Toubkal, North Africa’s tallest mountain, dominating the skyline.

Day 11: Mountain hike & cooking class Spend the morning in the Atlas Mountains - trek through the dramatic, snow-capped peaks or simply relax on your hotel balcony and take in the views. In the afternoon, we head to Marrakech for a hands-on cooking class, where you’ll learn to make classic Moroccan dishes from scratch. Small Change: Cook alongside Chef Laila in her family home, where your visit directly supports a local family-run business at the heart of the Marrakech community.

Day 12: Marrakech medina Today is all about the energy of Marrakech. We’ll explore the medina on foot, weaving through bustling souks, tasting local street food, and soaking up the sights and sounds of Jemaa el-Fna. In the evening, we’ll gather for our final group dinner, raising a toast to 13 unforgettable days of adventure.

Day 13: Checkout & onward travel Our journey from Morocco’s north to south comes to an end. Those heading home will make their way to the airport, while others can keep the adventure going - extend your stay with our support and the new friends you’ve made along the way.
