8 days from Marrakech to Fes via Merzouga Desert

Day 1: Entry into Marrakech

Day 2: Fully Guided City Tour of Marrakesh

We will organize an extensive guided tour of Marrakesh. The most significant former imperial city in Moroccan history, Marrakesh is close to the foothills of the snow-covered Atlas Mountain. Like other ancient towns, Marrakech is made up of a contemporary city named Gueliz and an ancient fortified city called The Medina. Furthermore, the Jemaa el Fna plaza in Marrakesh, which is one of the busiest in all of Africa and the globe, is home to the largest souk (traditional market) in Morocco. Also, the area is crowded with storytellers, snake charmers, water vendors, dancers, and musicians. The square transforms into a sizable open-air dining area at night.

We will visit the Koutoubia Mosque, which was built in the 12th century under the rule of the Almoravid Empire. We will move through the historic city’s alleys and tiny alleyways. However, under the reign of Moulay Ismail, the Sultan requested the establishment of the festival of the seven saints.

Day Three: Marrakech, Tizi-n-Tichka, Ait Benhaddou, Ouarzazate, Dades Valley/Gorges

We will meet you at your hotel/riad/bus station and begin our adventure from Marrakech to Dades Gorges.
