Magical Morocco

Itinerary

Day 1 Casablanca

Get acquainted with the distinct architecture and European flavour of this famed city. With a free afternoon, discover one of the largest mosques in the world with the tallest minaret or take it easy with a glass of sweet mint tea in one of the many great cafes.

Day 2 Rabat/Moulay Idriss Village Stay

See monuments spanning the history of Morocco, including the delightful Kasbah des Oudaias, on a walk through Rabat's old quarter. Spend the night in the hilltop town of Moulay Idriss. Once forbidden to non-Muslims, the picturesque medina offers an excellent insight into traditional Moroccan life.

Days 3-4 Fes

Discover the remarkable mosaics of Volubulis then see the imposing gates and walls of Meknes. Take a step back to the Middle Ages in Fes, considered the cultural and religious centre of Morocco. Perhaps begin explorations at the scenic Merenid tombs then head to the medina to haggle with local traders.

Days 5-7 Chefchaouen/Tangier

Nestled between two peaks in the Rif Mountains, charming Chefchaouen is the perfect place to relax. Spend time here shopping for unique handicrafts in the medina, hiking above the town for glorious views or simply sitting in a cafe to watch the world go by.

Days 8-9 Marrakech

Tantalise your senses with a walk around the city's main square, Djemaa el-Fna. Rub shoulders with crowds of visitors and locals alike, engrossed in the spectacle of dancers, snake charmers and fortune tellers. Wander to the Saadian tombs, the Mellah and through the souqs and get lost in the sights, scents and sounds of Marrakech.
