Day 1 · Casablanca → Rabat
Begin with Casablanca, allowing time for the Hassan II Mosque area before travelling to Rabat. Explore the capital at a manageable pace, with its Atlantic setting and historic quarters. Interior mosque visits depend on opening times and the confirmed programme.
Day 2 · Rabat → Asilah → Tangier
Travel north from Rabat, with a stop in the whitewashed coastal town of Asilah before reaching Tangier. Explore its small medina if time allows, then continue to your accommodation for the night.
Day 3 · Tangier → Chefchaouen
Start in Tangier and head into the Rif Mountains towards Chefchaouen. Explore its compact medina after arrival, taking time for the blue-painted lanes, small squares and mountain setting. Arrange any Tangier sightseeing around your arrival schedule.
Day 4 · A day in Chefchaouen
Enjoy a full day without changing accommodation. Wander through the blue medina, browse small shops and take breaks in the squares. A short walk towards a viewpoint can be included if you enjoy walking and conditions are suitable.
Day 5 · Chefchaouen → Volubilis → Meknes → Fes
Leave Chefchaouen and travel towards Fes, with the option to stop at the Roman ruins of Volubilis and the imperial city of Meknes. Choose the visits that best match your pace, then arrive in Fes for the night.
Day 6 · Discover Fes with a local guide
Explore the old medina of Fes, where workshops, neighbourhood markets and historic architecture sit within a maze of lanes. Plan the walking route with your guide and allow time for breaks. Entrance fees and selected monuments are confirmed in your quotation.
Day 7 · Fes → Ifrane → Ziz Valley → Merzouga
Leave Fes for the Middle Atlas, passing Ifrane and cedar-forest scenery before travelling south through the Ziz Valley. This is a full driving day. Reach Merzouga in time to settle into your desert stay, subject to road conditions.
Day 8 · A full day around Merzouga
Keep a full day for the Sahara region rather than another long transfer. Explore the villages and landscapes around Erg Chebbi, with time for local music or a guided desert excursion. Camel riding and a camp stay can be arranged according to your preferences.
Day 9 · Merzouga → Rissani → Todra Gorge → Dades Valley
Leave the dunes behind and travel through the landscapes around Rissani. Continue to Todra Gorge for a walk before following the road into the Dades Valley. A market visit depends on the day and your departure time.
Day 10 · Dades Valley → Ouarzazate → Ait Ben Haddou → Marrakech
Travel through the Valley of Roses towards Ouarzazate. Visit Ait Ben Haddou before crossing the High Atlas to Marrakech. The mountain road offers broad views and opportunities for photo stops, with arrival later in the day.
Day 11 · Marrakech at your own pace
Spend the day discovering Marrakech, from its medina lanes and gardens to the atmosphere of Jemaa el-Fna. A local guide can help you understand the old city. Share your interests so the sightseeing plan balances walking, visits and free time.
Day 12 · Marrakech → Essaouira
Travel towards the Atlantic coast and the port town of Essaouira. After arrival, walk along the ramparts, visit the fishing harbour and explore the medina at your own pace. An overnight stay gives you time to enjoy the coastal atmosphere.
Day 13 · Essaouira → Casablanca
Leave Essaouira and travel north towards Casablanca. Break up the journey where practical, then arrive for your final evening. The exact route and stopping points depend on your preferred pace and the following day’s travel plans.
