There isn't one standard way to travel through Morocco. A trip from Marrakech can cross the Atlas Mountains and continue south toward kasbahs, valleys, and the desert. Start in Fes and the route can look completely different, heading north to Chefchaouen or through Morocco's Imperial Cities.
Our Morocco Tour Packages range from 3 to 11 days. Depending on the itinerary, arrangements can include hotels or traditional riads, private transportation, airport transfers, breakfast, local guides during sightseeing, and desert accommodation where specified. Private Tours and Customized Tours are available if you want to change the route, add nights, or spend more time in a particular place.
Distances matter here, especially when the desert is part of the trip. Two Morocco Tours of the same length can cover very different parts of the country, so it makes more sense to choose the route first and then decide how many days you need.

Marrakech, the Atlas Mountains & Southern Morocco
Marrakech is the starting point for many journeys into southern Morocco. Spend time in the medina, around Jemaa el-Fna and the souks, then head across the Atlas Mountains toward Ait Benhaddou, Ouarzazate, the Draa Valley, and the desert.
If you only have a few days, our 3-Day Marrakech to Zagora Desert Tour keeps the route focused. With more time, the 7-Day Southern Morocco Tour goes farther into the south, with more time for kasbahs, valleys, and desert landscapes.
Fes, Chefchaouen & Northern Morocco
Fes is best explored on foot. Inside Fes el-Bali, narrow streets connect markets, workshops, madrasas, and historic buildings, making a local guide particularly useful for a first visit.
Chefchaouen fits naturally into a northern route rather than being added as a long detour from Marrakech. If these are the places you most want to see, the 5-Day Fes & Chefchaouen Tour keeps the trip concentrated around Fes, Meknes, and Chefchaouen.
Imperial Cities or the Desert?
This is one of the more useful decisions to make before choosing a Morocco itinerary.
If history, medinas, and architecture are the priority, an Imperial Cities route connects places such as Fes, Marrakech, Rabat, and Meknes. Our 8-Day Classic Morocco Tour follows this type of route without turning the trip into a desert circuit.
If you want both cities and the Sahara, allow more time for the journey south. The 9-Day Morocco Tour: Imperial Cities & Sahara combines the two rather than making you choose between them.
Check Which Desert Route You're Taking
“Desert tour” can mean different things in Morocco. Shorter journeys from Marrakech may head toward Zagora and the Draa Valley, while longer itineraries can travel farther into the south toward larger Sahara dune areas.
That difference matters because reaching the desert takes time. Before booking, check where the tour actually goes, how long the driving days are, and where you will stay overnight. Camel rides, 4x4 travel, and desert camps are included on selected itineraries rather than every Morocco package.
How Long Should You Spend in Morocco?
Three to five days works best when you stay focused on one part of the country. Around a week gives you more room for an Imperial Cities route or a longer journey south.
With 9 to 11 days, it becomes easier to combine cities, mountains, desert, and even the Atlantic coast without spending every day changing hotels. Our 11-Day Grand Morocco Tour is a better fit if you want to see several sides of the country in one trip.
When to Travel
Spring and autumn are good choices when your route includes both cities and the desert. Summer can be very hot inland, particularly around Marrakech, Fes, and southern Morocco, while the Atlantic coast is generally milder.
Winter works well for city sightseeing, but desert nights and higher parts of the Atlas Mountains can be much colder than daytime temperatures suggest.
Before You Choose
Start with the places you actually want to see rather than trying to fit every well-known stop into one trip. Marrakech and the south make sense together; Fes and Chefchaouen work naturally as a northern route; and longer Morocco Tours can connect several regions when you have enough time.
If one of our existing itineraries has the right route but not quite the right pace, many Private Tours can be adjusted around your dates, hotel preferences, and the number of nights you want in each place.
Morocco Tours FAQs
Learn more about the destinations and packages we offer.
Seven to nine days covers the standard Morocco circuit: Marrakech, the Sahara, Fes, and Chefchaouen. Five days fits Marrakech and one other region. Eleven days adds the Atlantic coast, Casablanca, or the Draa Valley. Most first-time visitors find 7 to 8 days the most practical length.
Five-day Small Group packages start from approximately 900 to 1150 USD per person. Eight to nine-day packages cost 1,400 to 2,100 USD per person depending on hotel category and group size. Desert camp upgrades with private tents add to the base price. Contact us for a current quote with your specific dates.
Citizens of the US, UK, EU, Canada, and Australia do not require a visa for stays under 90 days. Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from your date of entry. Check your government's current entry requirements before booking.
Morocco's main tourist destinations operate with regular international tourism. Marrakech, Fes, Chefchaouen, and the Sahara region have active visitor populations year-round. The primary risk in the medinas is petty theft in crowded areas. Our tours use licensed private guides in all medina sections. Standard precautions apply.
The Erg Chebbi dunes are the most distinct landscape on the Morocco circuit. The drive from Fes is 6 to 7 hours. Most travelers find it the highlight of the entire trip. Alternatives include flying from Marrakech or Fes to Errachidia airport (1 hour) to reduce the road time. Contact us to check flight availability for your travel dates.
A riad is a traditional Moroccan house built around an interior courtyard, typically with a garden and fountain. Riads in Marrakech and Fes have been converted into boutique hotels, often with rooftop terraces. Most Morocco packages use riads in the medina cities and standard hotels outside them. Luxury riad upgrades are available in Marrakech and Fes on request.
Camel treks at Erg Chebbi are an optional add-on priced separately. The standard trek is a 1-hour sunset ride from the camp to a dune viewpoint. Longer treks can be arranged. Desert camp nights may include the camel trek in the package price; confirm on the specific tour page.
Private tours are fully adjustable for route, hotel category, duration, and departure date. We can add the Atlantic coast, Essaouira, Meknes, or Casablanca to any itinerary. Group tours run on fixed schedules. Contact us with your travel dates for a custom quote.
Lightweight layers work across Morocco's range of climates. The Sahara is hot during the day and cold at night from October through March. Modest dress is appropriate when visiting mosques and medinas: covered shoulders and knees for both men and women entering religious sites. Flat-soled walking shoes are essential for medina cobblestones. A warm layer for desert nights is necessary between November and February.
Yes. Solo travellers regularly join small group Morocco departures, which keep groups between 6 and 14 people. Riads frequently have single rooms. The social environment of a guided group suits solo travel well. Contact us for current small group departure dates with available single spaces.
