It's time to let our senses guide us as we arrive in the colourful city of Marrakesh. We'll meet and greet our travel crew before spending the evening enjoying North African aromas and spices ahead of a full day exploring tomorrow.

Today we'll get to explore the sights and sounds of Marrakesh on an optional sightseeing tour and discover what this city is all about. You'll be sure to see the likes of Koutoubia Mosque, Jemaa El-Fna and Bahia Palace (tickets are available at an extra cost if you'd like to explore the Palace). Then its time to move on to our next destination... Welcome the Casablanca, the iconic city of Hollywood legend. For our first adventure, we'll wander La Corniche and soak up all of those coastal views.

Today we'll get to explore the elegant city of Casablanca and admire the Moorish buildings. For an optional tour, we'll pay a visit to the iconic Hassan II Mosque, the largest functioning one in all of Africa. More astounding architectural sights are in store in Rabat, as we visit the Mohammed V Mausoleum, tour Hassan and see the gilded royal palace. We then make our way to Chefchaouen, keeping our eyes peeled for the iconic blue buildings. Cameras at the ready: we'll explore Chefchaouen's most iconic insta spot - the 'Blue City' - whilst also uncovering the likes of Place Outa Hamam, Kasbah, and the local markets.

After breakfast this morning, we’ll make our way to Fes… with a stop-off in Volubilis along the way. Welcome to Volubilis – once a Roman settlement, and Morocco’s largest ancient attraction to this day (it’s also a UNESCO World Heritage Site). We’ll get to explore this marvellous site on a walking tour with a local guide. We'll travel through the Rif mountains to the cultural capital of Fes and check in to our hotel, ready for a full day of exploration tomorrow.

Welcome to Fes, Morocco's famed cultural capital - known for its medieval architecture and old-world atmosphere. Today you'll see the sights while also learning about the art of making carpets, handicrafts and how to shop medina style. Tonight, we’re off for an optional Moroccan feast… with live entertainment too.

Today we drive into the High Atlas Mountains, North Africa's highest mountain range as we make our way over to Erfoud. Expect to see some staggering peaks and breath-taking views, whilst making some pit stops in the gorgeous towns of Ifrane and Midelt, sitting between the Middle Atlas and High Atlas mountains. All before making base and enjoying some dinner in Erfoud, an oasis town situated in the mist of the Sahara Desert.

Erfoud, it's been a blast, but move on we must! We'll be making a charming stop for a home visit where we'll enjoy local Berber hospitality and plenty of Moroccan mint tea. Back on the road but we'll be making a stop in Rissani for a lazy lunch and maybe a cheeky swim (just what we need)! We've arrived, but we're not stopping yet. Enjoy an optional visit to the Barber Music Center for some culture. Then in the evening, we'll swap the coach out for some camels and trek into the Sahara Desert for some beautiful sunset views. For dinner you'll be treated to a traditional Berber feast inside a traditional Berber tent before settling in for the night.

We're back on the road, and today it's time to unleash your inner Gladiator. After driving the iconic 1000 kasbahs and eating lunch at the beautiful oasis of Tinghir, we’ll head off to Todra Gorge. Here you’ll have the chance to do some hiking and visit a Date Palmerie. Afterwards, you can visit Tatefy, a local women’s cooperative on the edge of the Dades Valley, known for its tea and baked goods (a MAKE TRAVEL MATTER® experience). Once you're full and ready to go we will explore Ouarzazate - an iconic city you'll recognise from films including Kingdom of Heaven and Gladiator.

Morning! How about starting the day with some traditional treats? This morning, we’ll head to a local argan oil cooperative to learn the techniques of producing this fragrant oil - which helps to support the ladies of the cooperative and their families (a MAKE TRAVEL MATTER® experience). Back in the Red City, you’ll have the chance to take a cooking class with a local family learning all about Moroccan hospitality and even have the chance to get a traditional Hammam Spa treatment.

Rise and shine! It’s a free day, and luckily, there are a lot of ways to spend it. Choose to relax at the hotel, or hit the streets for some DIY exploration. Oh, and dinner’s on us tonight!

Goood morning! After breakfast, we’ll hit the road to our next stop – passing by changing landscapes of plains, argan tree forests and rolling hills. We'll roll into Taroudant and waste no time heading out for lunch. Join the crew or do your own thing and tap into the local food scene. Don’t stress if it feels brief — we’ll be back later to explore properly. Welcome to paradise! Today we’ll explore this peaceful oasis at the foot of the Anti-Atlas Mountains. Expect lush palm groves, trickling water, local Berber life, and a historic kasbah overlooking the valley. Back in Taroudant, you're free to wander the medina, browse the souks for silver jewellery, leather goods, and spices. Don't forget to stroll along the city’s impressive walls and ornate gates like Bab El Kasbah and Bab Targhount. We'll round things out at Assarag Square, soaking up the lively local rhythm before settling in for the night.

This morning, we’ll drive along the Anti-Atlas mountains as we say goodbye to Taroudant. You’ve got the Atlantic ocean on one side and historic Berber towns on the other. Soak in all the views while you can. Welcome to Morocco's hidden coastal gem! Souks, cafes, terraces, fishing villages - there’s plenty to see here. End the night chilling by the beach (drink in hand - possibly local mint tea!) that’s across the road from our hotel.

It’s a DIY morning today, with plenty of time to explore the town at your pace. In the afternoon, we’ll make our way to a tranquil hidden gem in the wilderness of Morocco. The endless dusky red panorama in front of you isn’t your typical desert. It’s all rock! After we check into our luxurious tents, you’ll have the chance to cool off with a dip in the pool. Or even better - take a camel ride through the desert.

Noooo, it’s the last day already! Worry not, there’s one more included meal to feast on before we head back to the city where it all began. All good things come to an end. But there are plenty more good things on the horizon. (Like another epic adventure? Somewhere in Asia next time?). So bid your farewells, exchange your deets and hop on for an airport transfer!
