Your journey begins in the “Red City.” Dive into the vibrant energy of Jemaa el-Fnaa square, explore the intricate architecture of the Bahia Palace, and marvel at the Saadian Tombs. End your day by wandering the colorful spice-filled souks before relaxing in your traditional riad.

Travel through the fragrant Valley of Roses, stopping to meet local artisans. The afternoon is dedicated to the geological wonders of the Dades and Todgha Gorges, where massive 300m cliffs loom over the river. We stay the night in a unique, cliffside kasbah hotel.
We cross the rugged desert gateway of Erfoud, famous for its ancient fossils, before reaching the golden dunes of Erg Chebbi. Trade your vehicle for a camel to trek into the desert at sunset, arriving at your luxury camp for a night of Berber music and unparalleled stargazing.
Rise for a magical Sahara sunrise. After breakfast, we visit the traditional market of Rissani before heading north through the verdant palm groves of the Ziz Valley. We settle in Midelt, a scenic apple-growing town nestled at the foot of the High Atlas.
Today takes us through the Middle Atlas Mountains. We stop in the alpine-style town of Ifrane—often called “Little Switzerland”—before reaching Fes. Spend the afternoon exploring the medina, the ancient tanneries, and the world’s oldest university, Al Qarawiyyin.
Discover the grandeur of Meknes, an imperial city defined by its massive gates. We then explore the well-preserved Roman ruins of Volubilis before arriving in the capital, Rabat, to see the iconic Hassan Tower and the picturesque Kasbah of the Udayas.
