Itinerary
Tangier & "The Blue City" of Chefchaouen
Tangier
5 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeWelcome to Morocco! Arrive in the port city, and the gateway between Africa and Europe, of Tangier. You will have the option to either spend time exploring Tangier or continuing on to the striking blue city of Chefchaouen in the Rif Mountains. Just before you reach Chefchaouen, stop to hike (2-3 hours) through lush vegetation and small pools to enjoy the Cascades d'Akchour (Waterfalls of Akchour) — a tucked away gem. From there, arrive in charming Chefchaouen. Known for its blue-washed buildings in its historic medina, explore its maze-like narrow streets and alleyways which cling to the northern hillside.Chefchaouen
12 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeDiscover Place Outa el Hammam, the main square named for the number of hammams (public baths) which used to encircle it. Find a restaurant or café for a bite to eat, before browsing the many shops offering traditional wares. Visit the Grand Mosque and kasbah (old fortress or fortification). The Mosque was built in 1560 and cannot be entered by non-Muslims (but the view from the outside is still worth a visit). Explore the kasbah and tour a garden, a museum, and even some of its old prison cells. As the evening approaches, follow the streets east and ascend the path leading to the white Spanish Mosque (20 to 30 minutes). Enjoy one last view over Chefchaouen as the sun sets behind the mountains.- AccommodationsOvernight in Riad with dinnerFood And DrinksBreakfastDinner
Roman ruins at Volubilis, Meknes, and the Cultural Capital of Fes
Volubilis
1 hoursAdmission Ticket Not IncludedRise early to wander the quiet streets for your best chance to snap unobstructed photos, before leaving Chefchaouen behind. Make your way towards Fes, taking a short detour to explore the impressive Roman ruins at Volubilis. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Volubilis is a sprawling complex worth wandering. Founded in the 3rd century BCE it was abandoned in the 11th century and remains incredibly well-preserved. Marvel at the merchant homes and their visible heating systems underneath, the temples, and the nearly intact colorful mosaics in situ, including the Labors of Hercules. Meknes offers a calmer medina and shopkeepers are not as pushy to make a sale. While Meknes is quite large, the two main areas of interest are the Ville Impériale (Imperial City) and the manageable medina.Meknes
1 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeStop in Meknes on your way to Fes. A smaller version of Fes, Meknes offers a calmer medina and shopkeepers are not as pushy to make a sale. While Meknes is quite large, the two main areas of interest are the Ville Impériale (Imperial City) and the manageable medina.Fes
14 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeContinue on to Fes and navigate its impressively large and complicated medina that stretches down the hill. Before venturing into the medina, take a moment and visit the ruins of the Merenid Tombs and enjoy a panoramic view of the old city. Stay overnight in a beautiful riad in the medina (with an interior courtyard garden).- AccommodationsOvernight in Riad with dinnerFood And DrinksBreakfastDinner
Day 3: Fes: Exploring the Imperial City and medieval medina
Fes
24 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeFes is the oldest of the Imperial Cities in Morocco (Meknes, Marrakech, and Rabat are the others). Its medina is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and as one of the world's largest urban car-free areas, it is certainly worth every minute exploring. Often considered the country's cultural capital, it is made up of two old medina quarters, Fes el Bali and Fes el Jdid, and the modern Ville Nouvelle, constructed during the French colonial era (1912-1956). Meet your guide and spend a half day learning about the history and culture as you navigate the winding narrow streets of the medinas.- AccommodationsOvernight in Riad with dinnerFood And DrinksBreakfastDinner
Day 4: To the Coast: Rabat and Casablanca
Rabat
1 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeTake the morning to explore more of Fes. Perhaps visit a local Ceramics and Tilework Collective to see the tile masters at work creating their impressive mosaics. It's time to head west to the capital city of Rabat, located on the Atlantic coast and the Bou Regreg River. Explore the Chellah Necropolis, a medieval fortified city at the heart of Rabat. Wander the enchanting grounds: a mix of Roman and Islamic ruins. Enter through the grand door of the Kasbah des Oudaias and step into the original site of Rabat. Mostly a residential area today, wander the peaceful white and blue-washed streets and chat with locals. Visit the Andalusian Gardens. Built in the 20th century by the French, the gardens offer a serene space away from the crowds. Discover the Hassan Tower, a minaret of the incomplete mosque and Mausoleum of Mohamed V. A project that was abandoned in the 12th century. Now all that remains is the red sandstone tower standing at 145 feet (44 m) and some 200 columns.- AccommodationsOvernight in Riad with dinnerFood And DrinksBreakfastDinner
Day 5: Hassan II Mosque in Casablanca, onwards to Marrakech
Casablanca
24 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeIf you only visit one place in Casablanca — the commercial capital of Morocco — make it the Hassan II Mosque. Sitting in a picturesque location on the sea, its 690 feet (210 m) minaret is the tallest structure in Morocco and the tallest minaret in the world. While the exterior and surrounding area are impressive, what makes this mosque even more unique is it is one of the few mosques in the country where non-Muslims are permitted to enter. Join a morning tour of the mosque and marvel and the fine artisanship: hand-carved stone and wood, intricate marble floor detailing, and gilded ceilings.- AccommodationsOvernight in Riad with dinnerFood And DrinksBreakfastDinner
Marrakech: Exploring the Red City
Marrakech
24 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeUnlike Fes, Marrakech has Berber rather than Arab roots and history and was once an important trading capital for tribes of the Atlas Mountains and today remains a major economic center. Orient yourself around the Jemaa el-Fna Square: the souks are to the north, the Koutoubia Mosque and Gardens to the west and the Kasbah area with the Saadian Tombs, Bahia Palace, and El Badi Palace are to the south. In the Ville Nouvelle, you will find the Majorelle Gardens. Meet your guide and start exploring lively Marrakech!- AccommodationsOvernight in Riad with dinnerFood And DrinksBreakfastDinner
Depart Marrakech
Marrakech
Admission Ticket FreeComplete any last minute shopping, or you may wish to spend additional time exploring Marrakech's sites such as the ornate Bahia Palace (Bahia translates to 'brilliance'). The Palace was built in the 19th century and showcases Islamic and Moroccan architecture and artisanship at its finest. It covers eight hectares (10,000 square m) of ground and includes a garden with rooms opening onto courtyards. A visit to the palace and its gardens offers the perfect place for quiet contemplation before catching your flight home.- AccommodationsOvernight in Riad with dinnerFood And DrinksBreakfastDinner
