Excursão Grande Marrocos de 14 dias: Cidades Imperiais, Deserto e Costa

You land in Casablanca and we pick you up at the airport. Before the drive to the hotel you can see the Hassan II Mosque from outside, right on the Atlantic. The night is in Casablanca, with dinner included.

The drive to Rabat is short, about an hour, so there is plenty of time for a walk in the capital. Rabat is quieter than Casablanca, with wide streets and the old medina by the sea. You spend the night in Rabat, with dinner included.

Today the road runs north to Chefchaouen, the blue city in the Rif mountains. The drive takes about four hours. In the afternoon you can walk the blue-painted lanes and look out over the rooftops. You spend the night in Chefchaouen, with dinner included.

From Chefchaouen the route runs past the Roman ruins of Volubilis and through Meknes to Fes. Volubilis is worth the stop, with its old columns and mosaics standing in open fields. You arrive in Fes in the afternoon and sleep in a riad in the medina. Dinner is included.

A guided day in the medina of Fes. Your guide takes you through the lanes to the tanneries, the craft quarters and the old medersas. The medina is a maze, so a guide makes the day far easier. You spend the night in Fes, with dinner included.

The Morocco desert tour begins in earnest today, with the drive through the Middle Atlas and the Ziz Valley to Merzouga. The road drops down through the valley's palm groves to the edge of the sand. In the late afternoon you ride camels at sunset into the dunes of Erg Chebbi. The night is in the desert camp, with dinner and music by the fire.

A free day in Merzouga, with the dunes of Erg Chebbi on your doorstep. You can walk out into the sand, visit the village of Khamlia, or try sandboarding. There is no fixed plan, so the day runs at your own pace. The second night is in the camp, or in a hotel at the edge of the dunes, with dinner included.

You wake in the dunes and watch the sun rise over Erg Chebbi, then have breakfast in camp. The drive runs to Todra Gorge, where you can walk between the high rock walls, and on into the Dades Valley. You spend the night in a hotel or riad in the Dades Valley, with dinner included.

The road runs through the Dades Valley and Ouarzazate to Ait Ben Haddou, where you have time for the old clay buildings. Then it is over the High Atlas, across the Tizi n'Tichka pass, down to Marrakech. You arrive in the late afternoon and sleep in a riad in the medina. Dinner is included.

A guided walk in Marrakech: Jemaa el-Fna, the Koutoubia and the souks. The square changes through the day, so the morning and the evening feel quite different. Your guide knows the lanes, so you see more than the main streets. You spend the night in Marrakech, with dinner included.

Today you drive west to the Atlantic coast, to Essaouira. The road takes about two and a half to three hours. In the afternoon there is time for the medina and the harbour, where the fishing boats come in. You spend the night in Essaouira, with dinner included.

The drive to Agadir follows the coast south, with the Atlantic alongside the road. Agadir is a modern beach town, a clear change after the old medinas. You arrive in the afternoon and spend the night in Agadir. Dinner is included.

The last long drive runs along the coast via Oualidia back to Casablanca. Oualidia is a small lagoon town on the way, a good place to stop for a break. You arrive in Casablanca in the evening and spend the night there. Dinner is included.

After breakfast we take you to Casablanca airport for your flight home. The tour ends here.
