Magnificent Morocco
A 10-Day Grand Tour of Morocco’s Hidden Treasures
From the labyrinth souks of Marrakesh to the shifting terracotta sands of the Erg Chebbi, Morocco is an adventure traveler’s paradise, blending ancient history, time-honored culture, magnificent landscapes, and flavorful cuisine. This itinerary highlights the very best historic, cultural, and natural sites that Morocco has to offer, with a diverse range of experiences that can be customized to any activity level.
For history aficionados and cultural connoissours, the four Imperial Cities of Morocco - Rabat, Fez, Meknes and Marrakesh - offer authentic opportunities to immerse yourself in Morocco’s vibrant culture. Discover the hidden secrets contained within the walls of the ancient kasbahs (fortressess) at Udaya and Ait Ben Haddou. Walk the cobbled roads of the Volubilis Ruins, one of the best-preserved Roman ruins in all of North Africa, and admire its magnificent mosaics, triumphal arches, and stately basilicas. Wander the intriguing atmosphere of Marrakesh’s Djemaa el-Fna Square, listening to the hypnotic sounds of a snake-charmer’s song while browsing the eclectic vendor stalls teeming with food, spices, textiles, and handicrafts.
In addition to its enriching cultural and historic attractions, you will venture off the beaten track to see Morocco’s awe-inspiring landscapes through authentic explorations that blend nature and culture. Road-trip over scenic and winding mountain passes in the Atlas Mountains, stopping to hike amongst ancient cedar trees and visit the local Berber people to learn about their timeless traditions. Saddle up a camel and watch the Saharan sand dunes of Erg Chebbi change from purple to pink to orange as the morning sunrise brings them to life. Experience the lush atmosphere of a desert oasis amongst palm groves and traditional irrigation systems as you tour an agricultural village with your local guide.
