About this trip

This unforgettable Morocco itinerary begins in Casablanca, where you’ll explore the vibrant city and its iconic landmarks, including the Hassan II Mosque. From there, head to Tangier, a coastal city with rich history and Mediterranean charm. Next, discover the blue-painted streets of Chefchaouen, nestled in the Rif Mountains, offering a serene atmosphere and stunning views. Continue to Fes, home to one of the world’s oldest universities and a labyrinth of medieval streets. Your journey then takes you to Marrakech, where the bustling souks, historic palaces, and tranquil gardens await. Finally, unwind in Essaouira, a charming coastal town known for its laid-back vibe, historic medina, and stunning beaches. This diverse itinerary offers a perfect mix of culture, history, and relaxation.


NB - Customizing Your Moroccan Adventure: Sahara Experience Option 


Another option for this itinerary is to include the Sahara region, specifically Merzouga alongside with Boumalne Dades or Ait Benhaddou. This would offer an opportunity to explore the stunning desert landscapes, experience camel treks, and visit some of Morocco’s most iconic kasbahs. However, to accommodate this addition and ensure a smoother travel flow, we would suggest omitting Essaouira from the itinerary. This adjustment would allow for a more relaxed pace and ensure that you get the most out of your time in the Sahara, while still enjoying the highlights of the other destinations.

Day 1
Welcome to Casablanca – Arrival and Introduction to Morocco

Your Moroccan adventure begins in Casablanca, a city that blends modernity with rich history. Upon arrival at Mohammed V International Airport, your friendly team will greet you and assist with your transfer to a comfortable hotel in the city center. After settling in, you’ll have some time to rest and refresh before venturing on your first excursion.


In the late afternoon or next early morning based on the arrival time, you’ll visit the Hassan II Mosque, one of the largest mosques in the world. Perched on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean, it features stunning architecture, including a minaret that rises 210 meters high. Inside, intricate mosaics, hand-carved cedar wood, and beautiful calligraphy create an atmosphere of serene beauty. After the mosque visit, enjoy a welcome dinner at a local restaurant before returning to your hotel.

Fully recommend Original Travels! Ali was great and responsive during planning stages. Yassir was excellent in every aspect, not just a very safe driver; He is respectful and understood our situations. Said, the main contact during the trip was accommodating to our special needs. The trip is certainly memorable, enriching and many times beyond words which can only be experienced! Our trip began in Casablanca, to Tangiers, Chefchaouen, Fez, Merzouga Desert, Boumalne Dades, Marrakesh and finally back to Casablanca. We witnessed various landscapes as if we are in multiple countries. We had an amazing culinary journey from the most delicious tagine in the Orient Desert Camp, the specialty of Marrakesh tanjia cooked by former royal chef to the fancy 5 courses meal in Dar Rihana in the remote valleys of Boumalne Dades. We experienced breath taking (see photo) hiking trail at Chefchaouen, literally breath taking as we are not fit 😀 We took more than 20k steps, probably the most in our life! Despite cold weather in the Sahara, we sandboarded, played soccer with Fatima, a nomad Berber girl, and had Moroccan mint tea with her family. Wanted to appreciate all tour guides namely Mohammed in Chefchaouen, Sharif in Fez, Mustapha and Hamzah in the Sahara, Grandpa Mohammad and his wife (thank you for delicious home cooked meal), and lastly Hanan in Marrakesh. Departing Morocco after three splendid weeks, we leave with heartfelt connections, a bigger belly, less phone storage with pictures, and a once in a lifetime experience recommended for everyone! We truly had an amazing time, and wished we could give more than 5 stars 🌟. Thank you Original Travels! Thank you Morocco!
