Meet and greet services are provided at Tangier Ibn Battouta Airport or Tanger-Med Port. We then drive to our authentic lodging, the Riad, for an overnight stay (dinner and breakfast).

At 9:00, your personal sightseeing trip will begin. Before we travel to Asilah, you will get the opportunity to see Cap Spartel and the Caves of Hercules. Although Ras ben Sakka, Tunisia, is actually farther north than Cape Spartel, that location is usually mistakenly referred to as Africa’s northernmost point. It is located at the northwesterlymost point of continental Africa. At the peak of Jebel Quebir, where there is a tower, the cape climbs to a height of 326 metres. Another tower, located closer to the cape’s end, functions as a lighthouse. The Hercules Caves are located below the cape. These are accessible from Robinson Plage and are available to the general public. Neolithic occupancy is evident in the caverns. They were brothels before becoming popular tourist destinations. In the past, the granite was mined, and this was a significant factor in the formation of the caves. Bed, Dinner, and breakfast for one night at a traditional riad in Asilah

Today, you will travel through the Tetouan and Rif Mountains to get to Chefchaouen. Since prehistoric times, Berbers have lived in the Rif Mountains. In the 11th century BC, the Phoenicians started establishing trading posts on the Mediterranean and Atlantic coasts with the consent or in partnership with the local Berbers, and they began interbreeding, which led to the creation of the punic language. They also founded cities like Tetouan, Melilla, Tangier, and Chefchaouen. Northwest of Morocco is home to Chefchaouen, also referred to as Chaouen. It serves as the capital of the same-named province and is distinguished for its blue-hued structures. Just inland from Tangier and Tetouan is Chefchaouen. In Chefchaouen, spend the night in a typical riad (bed + dinner + breakfast).

The largest town in Morocco’s Rif area, Chefchaouen, is a great spot to escape the bustle of the imperial cities and have a relaxing day or two. The town, which the locals simply refer to as “Chaouen,” is situated in northern Morocco and is renowned for its scenic medina, accessibility to the mountains, and an abundance of kif. Due to these features, Chefchaouen is a well-liked stop on the travel routes of backpackers, but many kinds of tourists visit the town to take in the architecture, discover Berber culture, and enjoy the natural surroundings.

You will explore the ancient Moroccan cities of Fes, Volubilis, and Meknes today as we depart from the blue city of Chefchaouen and travel to Fes via those cities. Near Meknes in Morocco, Volubilis is a partially excavated Roman city that is widely regarded as the former capital of the Roman-Berber Kingdom of Mauretania. Built in a productive agricultural region, it began as a Phoenician-Carthaginian and Berber settlement in the third century BC before becoming the capital of the Berber Kingdom of Mauretania. It expanded quickly under Roman rule from the first century AD to the end of the third century, covering 100 acres and having a 2.6 km (1.6 mi) circuit of walls. In the second century, the city obtained a number of significant public structures, such as a basilica, temple, and triumphal arch. Its success, which was mostly brought about by olive farming, led to the development of numerous elegant townhouses with spacious mosaic floors. Meknes, one of Morocco’s four imperial cities, is the sixth-largest city in terms of population and is where the Almoravids first established a military outpost in the 11th century. Sultan Moulay Ismail (1672–1727), the son of the Alaouite dynasty’s founder, made Meknes the country’s capital. The city of Meknes recorded a population of 632.079 in the 2014 Moroccan census; it is the seat of Meknes Prefecture and a significant economic pole in the region of Fes-Meknes. Sultana Moulay Ismail transformed Meknes into an impressive city in Spanish-Moorish style, surrounded by high walls with great doors, where the harmonious blending of the Islamic and European styles of the 17th century Maghreb are still evident today.

Overnight Hotel Stay (Bed, Dinner, and Breakfast)

We officially enter the Sahara today. After the lengthy drive yesterday, there isn’t a lot of distance to travel (around 2 hours), so the morning is free for you to unwind at your hotel.

Along the route, stop at an intriguing museum of archaeology and the fossil workshops. You can alternatively take the tourist route that makes a detour via the ruins of the ancient city of Sijilmassa, which was once the richest city in North Africa and derived its wealth from trade caravans and gold.

You have the option of spending the night in a standard or luxury class bivouac deep among the dunes, a kasbah-style hotel, a traditional riad/auberge, or even an eco-lodge made of mud close to the dunes.

The Oasis of Tafilalet, the road, and the Valleys of Thousands of Kasbahs are all parts of our historic journey. With the high Atlas Mountains to the north and the Jbel Saghro range to the south, the Todra and Dades gorges provide us a peek of a new type of Moroccan scenery that is no less stunning but totally dissimilar from what we have seen on previous days. We will have time to wander under the shade of the date palms and olive groves that border the riverbanks of the Rivers Todra and Dadès, which provide water for a number of oasis and palmeraies in the area.

From the Dades Valley, we travel to the renowned Roses Valley and Kalaat Magouna Valley, which is where most of Morocco’s roses and rose water are produced. We’ll travel off-road to BouTharar, where the local nomadic Ait Atta Berbers live in rock caverns, to visit a nomadic hamlet there. Our day will end in Ouarzazate, dubbed “Hollywood of Africa,” where we will visit inside the walls of the old Kasbah Taourirt, in an authentic 17th century mud-built house that once served as the Pasha el Glaoui’s courthouse. Here, we will visit the old Berber Place Kasbah Amredel and a small private museum. It is presently a first-rate boutique inn and a good illustration of conventional building techniques employing local resources.

This morning, you will take a leisurely guided tour of Taroudant’s historic medina during which you will discover the city’s history and stop by the two souks (referred to as the “Arab souk” and the “Berber souk,” even though both cater to the needs of both clientele groups that reside in the area!) furthermore, tanneries Taroudant is a charming town that offers opportunity to observe local life in action and visit the souks without as much of the bustle as its “grand-daughter,” “grandmother” Marrakech, while being considerably smaller and less spectacular. We are on the Souss River, whose fertile flood plains supply the entire region with fresh produce. Many of the crafts you’ll see being done at the souks aren’t made to sell as souvenirs to tourists, but rather to local farmers as tools and agricultural equipment. You are free to explore and unwind on your own in the afternoon. Traditional Riad night (bed + dinner + breakfast)

We go north along the rocky Atlantic coastline from Taroudant city to the port city of Essaouira through Agadir, which serves as Morocco’s primary beach vacation destination. You will pass by sunbathers, surfers, fishermen, and some of the best bananas Morocco has to offer while travelling. You will witness both populated beaches with Moroccan families and desolate beaches if you travel during the summer. Argan oil, known as “Berber gold,” is produced by women’s cooperatives that harvest this priceless oil from the argan nut kernels in these protected forests of prickly argan trees. On the way, we’ll make a brief lunch stop.
