Morocco itineraries, day by day.

It depends on how much ground you want to cover. A focused trip around one base such as Marrakech works well in three to four days, taking in the medina, gardens and a day trip or two. To combine Marrakech with the Sahara or with a second imperial city like Fes, plan on seven to ten days so the driving distances stay comfortable. Two weeks lets you link the south, the desert, the Atlas mountains and the coast at an unhurried pace.

Yes. Every itinerary we plan is private to your party and fully adjustable. The day-by-day routes you see are starting points — we change the cities, the number of days, the accommodation style and the pace to match your dates, budget and interests before confirming anything.

A typical day blends guided sightseeing with free time. Mornings are usually the best hours for monuments, medinas and markets before the heat, with a sit-down lunch and a slower afternoon for a workshop, a garden, a hammam or a scenic drive. On travel days you cover the distance between cities or regions, often stopping at viewpoints, villages or cooperatives along the route.

Most tailored itineraries cover your accommodation (often riads in the medinas or kasbahs in the south), private ground transport in an air-conditioned vehicle, a private driver-guide or separate driver and local city guides, and the activities or entrance visits listed in the plan. International flights, most meals beyond breakfast, tips and personal spending are typically not included — your written quote always spells out exactly what is and isn't covered.

For peak periods — spring, autumn and the main holidays — booking two to three months ahead gives the best choice of riads, guides and desert camps, which fill quickly. Shorter Marrakech-based trips can often be arranged with a few weeks' notice, and we do our best with later requests, though availability and choice narrow closer to the dates.
