Depending on the arrival time of your plane or ferry, your first stop might be Tetouan, a city recognized as a World Heritage Site.

RESUMEN DEL DÍA
After enjoying a delicious breakfast at the riad in Chefchaouen, our exciting 5-day express journey through Morocco takes us to the magical city of Fez. This leg of the trip transports us from the impressive mountains and green forests of the Rif to the dazzling Fez, a city recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site, celebrating its rich history and unparalleled beauty. Upon arriving at this new destination, we immerse ourselves in the deep cultural heritage of Fez, guided by a local expert. This city connoisseur will lead us through the most emblematic corners, many of them nestled in the labyrinthine and mysterious medina, the largest in the Arab world, and its surroundings. We will discover treasures such as the Al-Karaouine Mosque, which houses a centuries-old madrasa of the same name, recognized as one of the oldest educational institutions in the Islamic world. We will also explore the charming Nejjarine Square, famous for its iconic fountain, and the impressive Bou Inania Madrasa. Additionally, we will delve into the fascinating tanneries district, where the leather tanning tradition is kept alive, and visit the old Mellah, or Jewish quarter, a place full of history and culture. Not to forget the majestic golden gates of the royal palace, which offer us a glimpse into the opulent past of Fez. Each of these stops will provide us with a unique vision of the city, offering a perfect blend of history, culture, and architecture. After our guided tour, the time will be yours to explore the prestigious artisanal souks of Fez or delve even deeper into the cultural wealth of the city by visiting its museums. When the day comes to an end, a well-deserved and peaceful night’s rest awaits you in a riad full of charm and hospitality.
RESUMEN DEL DÍA
After enjoying a delicious breakfast at the charming riad in Fez, we will begin our exciting journey towards the long-awaited Sahara Desert. Along the way, we will encounter landscapes and towns of great interest, where we will have the opportunity to stop for photos and explore their charms up close. One of the first stops could be Ifrane, known as the ‘Moroccan Switzerland’, due to its striking buildings with gabled roofs. In winter, this city is covered in snow, as it is situated at an altitude of 1,713 meters above sea level, in the heart of the Middle Atlas. As we advance, the landscape becomes greener and more wooded, as we will see in the Cedar National Park, located between Ifrane and Azrou. This park is also known as the ‘Monkey Park’ due to the endangered Barbary macaques that inhabit it. Once we cross the Middle Atlas, we will traverse the Ziz Valley, the largest oasis in Morocco, until we reach Erfoud, a city famous for its wealth in fossils and marble quarries, marking the entrance to the desert. Shortly after, we will arrive at the final stop, Merzouga, where we will ride camels (which can also be replaced by 4×4 vehicles). With these majestic animals, we will reach the spectacular Erg Chebbi dunes. In this golden sea, we will witness the magical glow of the sunset over the landscape. Our camel ride will finally lead us to our camp of jaimas, located in the heart of the desert. There, we will be welcomed with Berber tea as a gesture of hospitality. You will enjoy a traditional Berber dinner and spend the night inside an authentic Berber tent, all under an unparalleled starry sky.
RESUMEN DEL DÍA
On this day of the unforgettable ‘Morocco from North to South’ tour, the experience of waking up takes on a magical quality in itself. Getting up early to watch the first light of dawn over the majestic Erg Chebbi dunes is a charm we do not want to miss. After enjoying a delicious breakfast in the authentic jaimas, we will return to Merzouga on camels, immersing ourselves in the serenity of the desert. Then, we will take time for a refreshing shower, either in our cozy camp or in a hotel, depending on the package you have chosen.
Our private vehicle will take us back on the road to surprising places that reveal the true essence of Morocco. Our first stop will take us to Rissani, a charming desert city that still preserves a fascinating historic medina and corners that seem frozen in time, such as its peculiar donkey parking. Continuing our road trip, we will arrive at Tinghir or Tinerhir, whose name in the Tamazight language means «city of the mountain,» referring to the imposing rock formations that surround it.
Our next stop will be a true spectacle of nature: the Todra Gorges, located a short distance from here. This dazzling canyon, sculpted in the rock by erosion, offers us impressive vertical walls up to 200 meters high in some sections, creating unforgettable views both from the road and on foot.
After this unique experience, we will continue our route through the Dades Valley and enter the famous Route of the Thousand Kasbahs. In one of the picturesque villages of the region, you will find our cozy riad, where you will enjoy an exquisite dinner and spend the night in a charming and historic setting.
RESUMEN DEL DÍA
After enjoying a delicious breakfast at the charming riad in the Dades Valley, we will once again head to our vehicle to embark on a fascinating journey through miles of this impressive natural landscape and the nearby Valley of the Roses. Our first significant stop will take us to Ouarzazate, and more specifically to the magnificent Kasbah of Taourirt: this ancient Berber fortress also served as the residence of the ‘Pasha’ of Marrakech (governor of the city) and still retains elements that transport us to the grandeur and relevance of its construction in the past. Shortly after, we will reach another renowned fortified place: the ksar of Ait Ben Haddou. Listed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, this place has been a regular filming location for famous movies and series, such as «Lawrence of Arabia» and «Game of Thrones». Before us will unfold an extraordinary walled village that captivates any visitor with its stunning panoramic views from the outside and its modest homes and stalls that still stand within. After marveling at this unique gem, we will continue our road trip to cross the majestic High Atlas mountains via the Tizi n’Tichka pass, which rises to over 2,200 meters above sea level. As we ascend and descend, we will encounter charming local villages and breathtaking panoramic views, with peaks covered in snow during the coldest season of the year. As the afternoon progresses, we will arrive in Marrakech around 20:00, where we will drop you off at your accommodation or the airport, and here we will bid farewell until the next time, as you always return to Morocco and we hope you keep a good memory of the services of our agency Conocer Marruecos. If that’s the case, have a good trip!
