Tour Overview
From couscous to camels, mint tea to tanneries, you’ll get a taste of Morocco’s best bits on this 12-day adventure through mountains, gorges, desert and Amazigh villages. Kick-start in the French-infused port city of Casablanca, hang out with a local family on a homestay in Moulay Idriss, navigate the mother of all medinas in the cultural capital of Fes and wind your way up through Tizi n’Tichka and the High Atlas Mountains, before riding camels along the sand dunes during sunset and setting up camp under the Saharan stars. From the colourful and chaotic Marrakech markets to the blue-washed city of Chefchaouen, this adventure through Morocco hits all the essentials.

Trip Highlights
Why you'll love this trip
- •
Prepare for the best mint tea of your life on a visit to the Tawesna teahouse. This experience is more than just a cuppa, it’s about discovering a culture and contributing to the economic inclusion of women.
- •
Walk Chefchaouen’s blue-washed medina in the early hours with no one else around, then hike through the Rif Mountains to Akchour Falls for a picnic and swim.
- •
Watch the sunset from a camel’s back in the Sahara Desert and camp beneath a blanket of stars – now this is a bucket list experience!
- •
Navigate the labyrinthine twists and turns (less David Bowie film, more medieval maze) of the city of Fes with a local guide who takes you around like a lifelong friend.
- •
Enjoy a street food experience with multiple Moroccan favourites at a local restaurant with your group and trip leader – the best way to sample all the delicious goods in Djemaa el-Fna.
