Itinerary of your trip 8 Days - The Route Of Caravans Morocco Tour

  • Day 1 From Tangier To Tetouan & The Blue Streets Of Chefchaouen
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      From Tangier To Tetouan & The Blue Streets Of Chefchaouen

      Whether youโ€™re arriving by ferry or plane, we will meet you upon arrival and go on a short tour to introduce you to Tangierโ€™s old medina. From there we will drive up into the valleys of the magnificent Rif Mountains, its peaks rising as high as 2456 metres at Jbel Tidirhine.   


      After crossing the mountains we will continue across the fertile plains of Tetouan and limestone cliffs covered in cork oaks, pines, and wild olive trees before arriving in the mountain town of Chefchaouen, set like a gem between two Rif Mountain peaks. Chefchaouen is renowned for the distinctive blue-washed facades of its houses, painted that way by Jewish refugees who lived there in the 1930s, and is an unreal and unmissable destination for any trip to Morocco.   


      The Chefchaouen medina features a Spanish-style plaza surrounded by numerous cafes, rooftop restaurants, and crafts stores that sell items unique to the Moroccan highlands.   We will explore Chefchaouen in the afternoon and settle into our hotel, from which we will be able to enjoy the relaxed environment and spectacular mountain views of this one-of-a-kind town.


      Distance:  70 miles - 112 km

      Average driving time: 2 hours ( Excluding stops )

  • Day 2 Chefchaouen To The Cultural Capitol Of Morocco
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Chefchaouen To The Cultural Capitol Of Morocco

      After breakfast we will continue our journey to the Roman ruins of Volubilis, a UNESCO World Heritage site and the best preserved Roman ruins in North Africa. This important Roman town features detailed and gorgeous mosaics that will give you a window into Moroccoโ€™s ancient history.   


      We will also visit the nearby town of Moulay Idriss, where Moulay Idriss I, who brought Islam to Morocco, is entombed. Moulay Idriss is considered to be the holiest town in Morocco. From Moulay Idriss we will continue to Meknes, often called the "Versailles of Morocco" due to the grandeur and intricacy of its buildings and monuments.   


      We will take some time to explore its highlights, including the massive Bab Mansour Gate, the old Medina, and Moulay Ismailโ€™s shrine.   From Meknes we will continue to Fes, where we will check in at your hotel before having dinner and settling in for the night.


      Distance:  101 miles - 164 km

      Average driving time: 4 hours ( Excluding stops )

  • Day 3 Fes Sightseeing With Official Local Guide
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Fes Sightseeing With Official Local Guide

      After breakfast you will enjoy a guided half-day city tour of Fes, Moroccoโ€™s spiritual and intellectual capital and home to the largest old medina in the world.  There you will visit Jemaa El Karaouine, the first university to be established in the world. As you enter the shady souks, you will encounter aromas from the market stalls where countless spices and perfumes are traded. 


      In stark contrast, youโ€™ll brave the stink emanating from the leather tanneries where men often stand up to their waists treating leather in noxious baths in the same way that it has been done for centuries. Despite the smell, the ethnic leather products produced by these craftsmen are world-class and are the perfect thing to take home with you. In the evening you can have dinner in one of the local restaurants and spend the night at your hotel.

  • Day 4 Fes To The Sahara + Camel Trek
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Fes To The Sahara + Camel Trek

      After picking you up from your hotel in Fes we will embark on a picturesque journey towards Ifrane, through hills covered in forests of cork oak and giant cedar in which a few Barbary apes still make their home. Crossing strikingly beautiful passes over both the Middle and High Atlas ranges we will catch our first glimpse of the Southโ€™s incredible architecture.   


      After passing through a barren plain of scrub and desert on the other side of the mountains, we will stop for lunch in the town of Midelt, from which we will have a fantastic view of the dramatic peaks of the High Atlas rising behind the town. Crossing Tizi-n-Talremt (the She-Camel Pass), we will descend into a desert plain along the Ziz valley.   


      We will then head south to Erfoud and Rissani,  through an immense palm oasis and a vast area of stony plain that marks the transition to the desert before reaching the tranquil desert town of Merzouga, where we have selected a charming kasbah hotel on the outskirts of the Erg Chebbi golden sand dunes. There you will be able to relax beside the swimming pool, and in the evening enjoy a live show by a desert blues band.


      Distance:  285 miles - 460 km

      Average driving time: 7 hours ( Excluding stops )

  • Day 5 Desert Sunrise, Ouarzazate Through "Moroccoโ€™S Grand Canyon"
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Desert Sunrise, Ouarzazate Through "Moroccoโ€™S Grand Canyon"

      At your request, our staff will wake you at the crack of dawn to witness the spectacle of the desert sunrise, the colour of the sand contrasting beautifully with the palette of shadows on the dunes. After some light breakfast and tea we will ride the camels back across the desert to the Kasbah to freshen up before our journey North back towards the Atlas Mountains. 


      We will stop along the way at Nโ€™kob for lunch over some fantastic mountain views, and participate in an optional fossil discovery workshop. We end for the day at Ouarzazate, a bustling southern city often referred to as "The Hollywood of Morocco" owing to the many famous films shot on location such as Gladiator, Lawrence of Arabia, and Kingdom of Heaven, as well as several seasons of the hit show, Game of Thrones.


      Distance:  255 miles - 411 km

      Average driving time: 6 hours ( Excluding stops )

  • Day 6 Ait Ben Haddou, Marrakech By Evening
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Ait Ben Haddou, Marrakech By Evening

      In Ouarzazate, also known as the โ€œHollywood of Moroccoโ€, we will visit the Taouirirt Kasbah and the cinematographic museum before continuing on to Kasbah Ait Benhaddou, the most famous kasbah in Morocco, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and the backdrop for many Hollywood blockbusters such as โ€œGladiatorโ€ โ€œIndiana Jonesโ€ and โ€œLawrence of Arabiaโ€. 

      ยญ 

      You will have the chance to explore some of the ruined buildings and climb to the top of the hill where the agadir (granary) offers a spectacular view over the village and the surrounding countryside. You may also want to enter one of the houses and share a glass of mint tea with some of the locals to gain a better understanding of their way of life. 

      ยญ 

      In the afternoon youโ€™ll drive north across the High Atlas Mountains. The road, completed by the French Foreign Legion in 1936, winds up over the Tizi nโ€™Tichka Pass and offers stunning views over the mountains before descending past Berber villages to the plains surrounding Marrakech. Even today, the name Marrakech conjures up scenery from Arabian Nights - alleyways, souks, and market stalls. This remarkable city, with the graceful architecture of the renowned 11th-century Koutoubia Minaret dominating the skyline, never fails to satisfy the curiosity of its visitors. We will arrive back in Marrakech by late afternoon.

In the evening this square overflows with food stalls, dancers, acrobats, fortune tellers, musicians, and henna artists.
