Day 1 Casablanca - Chefchaouen
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Casablanca - Chefchaouen

Welcome to Morocco! Begin your journey in the modern coastal city of Casablanca. Head to the Hassan II Mosque for a guided tour and appreciate the fine examples of Moroccan and Islamic artisanship. Then, travel north to Chefchaouen. Named after the two peaks rising above the hillside town, Chefchaouen translates to "two horns." Wander the steep, cobbled streets and admire the picturesque blue-hued buildings. Relax in Place Outa el Hammam while enjoying mint tea, and browse the colorful wares in the many shops. Visit the nearby kasbah (fort or fortification) and explore the 15th-century fortress and dungeon. As the day draws to a close, make your way uphill to the abandoned white Spanish Mosque for a final view of Chefchaouen as the sun sets behind the mountains.
Day 2 Chefchaouen - Fes
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Chefchaouen - Fes

After breakfast, enjoy a few more hours visiting Chefchaouen before heading south toward Fes. Along the way, stop to visit the Roman ruins of Volubilis, a UNESCO-protected site that remains incredibly well-preserved. Next, explore Meknes. A smaller version of Fes, Meknes offers a calmer medina where shopkeepers are not as pushy. While Meknes is quite large, the main areas of interest are the Ville Impériale (Imperial City) and the manageable medina. Visit the Bab al-Mansour gate and the Mausoleum of Moulay Ismail. Continue eastward to Fes, check into your riad, and enjoy the stunning Moroccan architecture.

Fes - Merzouga

Begin your journey south toward Merzouga. Along the way, stop in the cedar forests of the Middle Atlas Mountains, where you can enjoy sightings of the local Barbary macaque monkeys. Continue over the Tizi n’Talremt pass and into the Ziz Valley, known for its hidden oases and clusters of palm trees. Along the road, you will see many fortified houses known as ksars—built to protect precious wares, including gold, salt, and spices.

Continue on to Erfoud, known for its date festival and fossil mining. Then, proceed to Erg Chebbi, an extensive sea of sand dunes covering an area of 13.5 square miles (35 square km). The massive dunes shift and travel depending on the changing wind! Upon reaching Merzouga, switch gears and ride your camel through the dunes to your pre-prepared camp. Climb a nearby sand dune to watch the sunset before returning to camp for a tasty dinner and relaxing by the campfire.

Make your way to the desert town of Tinerhir before reaching the 984-foot (300 m) deep Todra Gorge. You’ll have time to explore the gorge and relax in the cool waters of the shallow Todra River. Then, continue your journey to another beautiful valley, the Dadès Valley, for an overnight stay in the heart of the valley.

Head west to Kela’a M’gouna, known for its Festival des Roses, where you can see extensively cultivated farmland bordered with fragrant rose bushes. Continue west to Ouarzazate, a gateway to the Sahara Desert made popular by the film industry. Join a studio tour to discover how the nearby desert landscapes have been featured in many films. Then, travel to Aït Benhaddou, a UNESCO World Heritage site believed to date from the 11th century, during a time when it held an important position along the trans-Saharan trade route between Marrakesh, Ouarzazate, and the southern desert. Follow the narrow streets up to the granary for a view of the surrounding landscapes. From there, ascend the High Atlas Mountains and then drive down to the lively city of Marrakesh.
