Exciting 7 Days Tour from Casablanca to The Sahara Desert

We hit the road toward Rabat, Morocco’s capital. This elegant city blends history and calm coastal charm. You'll explore the striking Hassan Tower, the impressive Mausoleum of Mohammed V, and the peaceful Kasbah of the Udayas overlooking the Atlantic.

Later, we wind through the green hills of the Rif Mountains to reach Chefchaouen, the famous Blue City. With its painted streets, flower pots, and mountain views, this town feels like a dream. It’s a relaxing spot that’s incredibly photogenic and peaceful — a highlight for many travelers.

Enjoy a slow morning exploring Chefchaouen’s quiet blue alleyways before we head to the ancient Roman city of Volubilis. These well-preserved ruins are full of intricate mosaics and offer a fascinating peek into Morocco’s Roman past.

Then we stop in Meknes, a city known for its majestic gates and historic significance. You’ll see the iconic Bab Mansour, stroll past royal granaries, and learn about Sultan Moulay Ismail at his peaceful mausoleum. By late afternoon, we arrive in Fes, ready for a deeper cultural dive the next day.

Get ready to explore one of Morocco’s most soulful cities. With a local guide, you’ll visit the Royal Palace gates, explore the old Jewish quarter, and catch panoramic views of the Medina from Borj Sud. A stop at a traditional pottery workshop shows off the artistry still alive in Fes today.

Inside the UNESCO-listed Medina, you’ll walk through a maze of colorful streets to see landmarks like the University of Al Quaraouiyine, the historic Chouara Tanneries, and the Al Attarine Madrasa. It’s a full-on sensory experience that brings Morocco’s past and present to life.

After breakfast, we leave the city behind and drive south through stunning scenery. First stop: Ifrane, nicknamed the “Switzerland of Morocco” for its alpine look and crisp air. Then it’s on to the Cedar Forest, where playful Barbary monkeys roam freely.

We pause for lunch in Midelt, then continue through the sweeping Ziz Valley, lined with date palms and traditional villages. By late afternoon, we reach the golden dunes of Merzouga. Time to hop on a camel and ride into the Sahara! Watch the sunset from a high dune before arriving at your desert camp, where music, stargazing, and dinner by the fire await.

You’ll want to rise early today — the Sahara sunrise is something you’ll never forget. After breakfast at the camp, we head to Rissani, a historic desert town known for its lively souk and connection to ancient caravan trade routes.

Next stop is Erfoud, famous for its fossil-filled stones. We continue toward the dramatic Todra Gorges, where steep red cliffs tower above a cool river — a favorite for climbers and nature lovers alike. Finally, we travel through the beautiful Dades Valley, stopping for photos at the “monkey fingers” rock formations and other scenic viewpoints.

On your final day, we travel through Kalaat M’Gouna, home of the Valley of Roses, where you can see local rose-based products made fresh. Then we pass through the lush Skoura palm groves and arrive in Ouarzazate, often called the “Hollywood of Morocco.”

Next, it’s time to explore the legendary Ait Ben Haddou Kasbah, a stunning fortress-like village and UNESCO site that has starred in movies like Gladiator and Game of Thrones. Finally, we cross the breathtaking High Atlas Mountains via the winding Tizi-n-Tichka Pass, descending into the vibrant city of Marrakech. Drop-off is available in either Marrakech or Casablanca — your choice!
