Included Experience
- Chefchaouen: Get your bearings in Chefchaouen, weaving through the blue-washed medina set in Morocco’s Rif Mountains. Expect winding lanes, photo-ready corners, and a pass through Plaza Uta el-Hammam, the main square where you’ll spot the kasbah and the Grand Mosque before heading off to explore at your own pace.
- Akchour: Hop in for a drive to Akchour, then lace up for a scenic out-and-back hike to the dreamy Akchour Waterfalls. This spot’s still nicely under-the-radar, so it feels wild in the best way. When you hit the falls, you’ll find natural pools made for a refreshing swim (so bring your swimmers!). Expect valley views and varied terrain, with elevations ranging roughly from 302m up to 1,264m depending on the trail.
- Volubilis: See another side to colourful Morocco, as you explore the Ancient Roman ruins at this archaeological site with a Local Guide.
- Midelt: Stretch your legs with an easy valley walk to a local village. Your Trip Manager will pick the best route for the day (based on the group and the weather), so you’ll get the good stuff — fresh air, laid-back village vibes, and those Atlas Mountains views showing off in the background.
- Midelt: Wander through the village of Bremmen to see local farming life up close — gardens, fields, and day-to-day village routines. Later, we'll head to a family home for a home-cooked lunch made with seasonal produce from the area, finished with the fragrant herbs the region is known for.
- Merzouga: Saddle up and get ready for a sand-filled adventure atop an actual camel. A total bucket list moment!
- Erfoud: You’ll visit a local fossil exhibit in Erfoud to learn how this area went from ancient seabed to desert (and of course, see the fossils that prove it).
- Todra Gorge: Lace up — we’ll take a walk through the epic Todra Gorge, where towering canyon walls squeeze in around a cool riverbed and palm-filled oasis vibes. Expect big scenery, plenty of photo stops, and a chilled wander that still feels like a proper adventure.
- Tighza: Hike for around 1.5 hours through the High Atlas Mountains, following mountain paths past terraced fields, stone houses, and wide-open valley views. The trail climbs steadily to about 1,075m, before you arrive at our traditional gîte in Tighza.
- Ouarzazate: Enjoy a traditional tea ritual with a nomad family. It’s a hallmark of Moroccan hospitality.
- Marrakesh: Explore Marrakesh on a guided walk through the medina, taking in key sights, local neighbourhoods and the souks. You’ll get a feel for the city’s layout, pick up insider tips from your guide, and have time to browse for snacks and souvenirs along the way.

Time to swap city buzz for mountain calm. We’ll roll out of Fes and head south, cruising past fertile valleys, cedar and pine forests, then into those raw, rocky landscapes that feel straight-up cinematic. Midelt’s the perfect pit stop on the road to the Sahara — a market town tucked between the Atlas and Anti-Atlas at over 1500m. Later, we’ll stretch the legs with an easy valley walk out to a local village, with the route picked to suit the group and the weather (aka maximum views, minimum stress). On the way back, explore apple tree plantations, fresh air, and enjoy a chilled evening in.
Duration: 1 Day
Accommodation: Ksar Timnay (or similar)
First up: the town market. Then it’s out through farms and orchards, walking through a Berber village for a real look at local farming life. The best part? A special home-cooked lunch to top it all off. Back on the road, the scenery flips fast. We'll check out barren mountainsides giving way to greener, fertile valleys as we push onwards towards the desert. Erg Chebbi starts stealing the show with dunes rising up to 150m like nature’s own skyline. After dropping your gear at camp, it’s camel time — riding out to the edge of the Sahara as the sun sinks and the dunes light up. Tonight, we’ll camp traditional-style: local dinner, an open fire, music and dancing, and a sky full of stars.
Duration: 1 Day
Accommodation: Sahara Garden (or similar)
Leave the desert behind and hit the road, swapping sand dunes for fresh mountain air as we head towards Todra. On the way, you’ll stop at a fossil factory to get the story behind this landscape (spoiler: it’s seriously ancient).Then you’ll roll into the Todra Valley, you'll discover Atlas foothills, mudbrick villages on the hillsides, and huge rock formations carved by the wind. We'll spend the night wrapped up in that dramatic gorge-and-green-valley scenery.
Duration: 1 Day
Accommodation: Kasbah Taboriht (or similar)
Breakfast first cuz we've got a long day ahead of us. We’ll roll west through the Draa Valley, then climb up into the High Atlas where the views start getting loud. Next, we’ll hop out of the vehicle and hit the trail, hiking through a chain of small mountain villages that feel straight out of a postcard. Around 1.5 hours later, Tighza is the finish line — and the perfect place to switch off. Tonight’s home is a traditional gîte in the village, cosy and local in the best way. We’ll round it off with slow sips and warm welcome during a traditional tea ceremony.
Duration: 1 Day
Accommodation: Gite Bouchahoud (or similar)
Say goodbye to the Anti Atlas and steal one last look at those rugged peaks. Today, we’ll journey on towards Marrakesh. Welcome to the Red City. The afternoon’s yours to play with — get lost (on purpose) in the Medina souks, or claim a rooftop spot and watch the city buzz with a mint tea in hand.

Marrakech is all yours today. After brekkie, a Local Guide will help us get properly oriented with this city. We’ll wind our way into the Medina, through the souks, and straight to the energy of Djemaa el-Fna (cue the senses going into overdrive). Then it’s choose-your-own-adventure: step inside Bahia Palace for peak tile-and-courtyard vibes, or keep wandering and let the city pull you in. Hungry? Jump on an optional sunset food tour and taste your way through the best bits of town.
