8 Days Private Tour from Casablanca

Your 8 Days Private Tour from Casablanca begins as our driver meets you upon your arrival in Casablanca. Start by discovering the city’s key cultural sights, including a visit to the magnificent Hassan II Mosque, one of the largest active mosques in the world. Enjoy the coastal atmosphere along the corniche before taking a scenic drive to Fes, where you will check into your riad or hotel for the night.

Dedicate your day to exploring Morocco’s oldest imperial city, Fes. Navigate the labyrinth of narrow streets starting at the grand Royal Palace gates, followed by the historic 16th-century Jewish Quarter (Mellah). Your guided sightseeing covers essential cultural landmarks such as the legendary Al Qaraouine University, the historic tanneries, the Attarine Museum, and the Moulay Idriss Mausoleum. After lunch, visit various local artisan cooperatives and enjoy a sweeping panoramic view over the entire ancient medina before returning to your riad.

After breakfast at your Fes hotel, journey southward toward Merzouga across the Middle Atlas region. Pass through Ifrane—often called the “Switzerland of Morocco”—and stop at the Azrou cedar forests to observe and feed local Barbary apes. Continue to Midelt for lunch, then follow the winding course of the Ziz River through the dramatic Ziz Gorge and valley. After passing Erfoud and exploring the local market souk in Rissani, arrive in Merzouga by evening for an overnight stay at a local hotel.

Following breakfast, venture deeper into the desert adventure by trading your vehicle for camels to cross the golden Erg Chebbi dunes. Experience the authentic nomadic Berber lifestyle, visit the village of Khamlia to listen to traditional Gnawa music, and savor a local Berber pizza for lunch in Rissani. Enjoy a peaceful camel ride to watch the breathtaking desert sunset, returning to a desert camp for a starlit night featuring a traditional tagine dinner and live Berber drum music.

Rise early to catch a stunning sunrise over the dunes before riding your camels back to the village. Depart for Tinghir to explore the Todra Gorge, the highest and narrowest canyon walls in Morocco. Enjoy a walk within the valley and lunch nearby before continuing onward to the Dades Gorge. Spend your evening admiring unique geological rock formations like the “monkey toes/feet” and local mud castles, followed by dinner and an overnight stay at a local hotel.

After breakfast, drive toward Marrakech along the famous “Route of a Thousand Kasbahs.” Stop in Kalaat M’gouna for lunch and explore the renowned, UNESCO-listed Kasbah of Ait Ben Haddou. Afterward, traverse the winding High Atlas Mountains via the dramatic Tizi n’Tichka pass to reach Marrakech, where you will check into your local riad or hotel for the night.

Spend the day on a comprehensive guided tour of Marrakech’s top cultural treasures. Discover iconic highlights including Jemaa el-Fnaa square, the Koutoubia Mosque, bustling traditional souks, and historic museums. Continue your exploration through Fes Jdid, the modern district of Gueliz, the tranquil Menara Gardens, and the vibrant Majorelle Gardens before returning to your hotel.

On your final day, schedule permitting, discover some of the quieter, less touristy neighborhoods of Marrakech and enjoy a relaxed lunch at a local restaurant in the afternoon. Afterward, receive a seamless transfer to your hotel or the Casablanca airport to conclude your unforgettable 8-day private Morocco tour.
