Family - Marvels of Morocco Summary

Add to Shortlist

Days 1-3 Fes

Being in Fes is like stepping back in time. Stately city walls, labyrinthine medinas and a wonderfully preserved Old City has made Fes one of Morocco's favourite destinations.

Day 4 Erfoud

Set on the fringes of the Sahara Desert, the old oasis town of Erfoud attracts visitors preparing to embark over the vast expanse of rolling desert dunes.

Day 5 Merzouga

With the backdrop of the orange-coloured Erg Chebbi sand dunes, the small Saharan village of Merzouga feels like the modern world has left it behind, charmingly so.

Day 6 Desert Camp

A vast sea of shifting wind-swept sand that's formed into picturesque undulating crests and valleys, the Erg Chebbi dunes are one of the world's classic landscapes.

Day 7 Todra Gorge

Located on the remote east side of the High Atlas Mountains, Todra Gorge is a spectacular canyon with sheer rock walls up to 300m high.

Days 8-9 Atlas Mountains

A charming Berber village in the Atlas Mountains, Boutaghrar is the perfect base to explore the Mgoun Valley and the Valley of the Roses.

Day 10 Ait Benhaddou

Sitting on a hilltop and looking unchanged since the 11th century, Ait Benhaddou is one of Morocco's most treasured, alluring and iconic sites.

Day 11 Marrakech

Marrakech is a feast for the senses. Be enticed by the alluring scents and brilliant colours of the spice markets, the sounds of the musicians and the perfume of its gardens.

Days 12-13 Essaouira

A seaside town with undeniable charm, Essaouira's stone ramparts play host to whitewashed houses with bright blue shutters, art galleries and a picturesque harbour.

Days 14-15 Marrakech

Marrakech is home to a seemingly endless mosaic of souqs. Each is devoted to a separate trade: pottery, woodwork, copper, leather, carpets and spices.
