Leave Chefchaouen after breakfast and head toward Volubilis, Morocco’s best-preserved Roman archaeological site. Walk among ancient columns and mosaics that date back to the 3rd century, and explore the historic ruins set against a scenic backdrop of rolling hills and olive groves.
Next, continue to Meknes, once the imperial capital of Sultan Moulay Ismail. Visit the impressive Bab Al-Mansour gate, Sahrij Souani basin, Royal stables, and Moulay Ismail Mausoleum. Afterward, a short drive takes you to Fes, where you’ll check into your charming riad and relax before your full day of exploration tomorrow.
Wake up to a stunning desert sunrise. After breakfast at camp, set off to explore the Merzouga region. Visit nomadic families living in woven tents and learn about their way of life over a glass of tea. Then explore a centuries-old eyeliner mine and discover how the desert's resources are still in use today.
Next, visit Khamlia village, home to the Gnaoua people, where you’ll enjoy a soulful music performance. Continue to a palm grove and the seasonal Lake of Flamingos (Dayet Srij). If in season, you may spot flamingos and migratory birds. Return to Merzouga in the afternoon and relax at your hotel.
Start your day with a drive through the Valley of Roses, stopping in Kalaat M’Gouna, especially beautiful during the rose harvest season. Visit Skoura palm oasis and explore Kasbah Amridil, one of the most well-preserved kasbahs in southern Morocco.
Next, head to Ouarzazate, known as the Hollywood of Africa. Visit the Taourirt Kasbah and optional stop at Atlas Studios. Continue to the famous Ait Ben Haddou Kasbah, a UNESCO site that has appeared in many films and series. After exploring, drive over the High Atlas Mountains via the scenic Tizi-n-Tichka pass. Arrive in Marrakech and settle into your riad.
After breakfast, set off on a guided walking tour of Marrakech, Morocco’s vibrant red city. Explore the Bahia Palace, Saadian Tombs, and the Ben Youssef Madrasa, each offering a glimpse into Morocco’s regal and artistic past. Wander through the colorful souks, where artisans sell everything from spices to textiles.
After lunch near Jemaa el-Fna Square, visit the Koutoubia Mosque and the serene Majorelle Garden, once owned by Yves Saint Laurent. Enjoy a free evening to wander Jemaa el-Fna’s lively atmosphere—street performers, food stalls, and snake charmers bring the city to life.
Your Moroccan journey ends with a transfer from Marrakech to Casablanca Airport.
