Your leader will adjust the itinerary accordingly, but please consider this when selecting your travel dates.

Highly recommend the Premium Highlights tour of Morocco for a great way to experience Morocco in a small group. Met some wonderful people and saw some amazing places. First trip with Intrepid and enjoyed it tremendously!

This was my first Intrepid trip. I’d booked premium because I like to feel comfortable travelling and it completely exceeded my expectations. I’m naturally a bit of a nervous traveller and I felt completely safe. If you enjoy culture and scenery this is the trip for you!

I recently had the pleasure of joining an 8 day tour of Morocco from Casablanca to Marrakech via Fes. The timeframe was great for us. Accomodation was as expected for a premium tour, but the highlight was the knowledge given and interaction with our guide Samir. Highly recommended
