15-Day Circuit: Complete Tour from North to South Morocco

Complete 15-Day Tour: Discover Morocco Tangier to the Desert and Marrakech

Day 1 – Pick-up in Tangier – Tangier

At your scheduled flight arrival time, our transportation will be waiting for you at the airport to transfer you to your hotel for the night. Free time to explore the city. Hotel accommodation.

Day 2 – Tangier – Asilah

After breakfast, we will depart for the small coastal town of Asilah, stopping at the Caves of Hercules and Cape Spartel, the northernmost point of the African continent. We will continue our journey to Asilah. The walls surrounding the town were built by Alfonso V of Portugal in the 15th century. Old cannons can still be seen along the waterfront. At the Sea Gate, next to the square Portuguese tower that overlooks the entire town, stands Sidi Ali Ben Hamdush Square, whose interior is used for exhibitions. By the sea is the Hispano-Moorish mansion known as the El Raisuni Palace, now a cultural center. The medina is made up of very clean and quiet white houses with colorful murals. The street lighting is unique, known as the "Asilah lantern," and the houses are being renovated with a beautiful Neo-Moorish design. The paving of the streets is the work of local artists. Near the sea stands an old Muslim cemetery with multicolored ceramic tombs, and the mausoleum of Sidi Ahmed el-Mansur, the Saudi who recaptured the city after the Battle of the Three Kings. Accommodation in Asilah.

Day 3 – Asilah – Tetouan – Chefchaouen

After breakfast, we began our journey to Chefchaouen, or Chaouen as many call it, located in the only intercontinental natural park declared a biosphere reserve. It's a town perched on the mountainside, painted white and blue, inhabited by wise, kind, and respectful people, offering visitors beautiful urban landscapes, exquisite examples of local crafts, and a peace and serenity that is hard to find these days. Overnight in a riad.

Day 4 – Chefchaouen – Volubilis – Moulay Idriss – Meknes

We leave the rich tapestry of Chefchaouen and head towards Meknes, the smallest of the imperial cities. Along the way, we'll visit the remarkably well-preserved Roman ruins of Volubilis. We'll also enjoy a panoramic view of Moulay Idriss, the holy city, and in the afternoon, we'll arrive in Meknes to enjoy the sunset while exploring the walls and gates of its medina or simply relaxing with welcome tea at the riad. Overnight in a riad.

Day 5 – Meknes – Fez

After breakfast, we'll depart for Fez. Upon arrival in Fez, you'll have free time to explore and begin discovering the city. Overnight stay in a riad.

Day 6 – Visit to the Medina and Monuments of Fez

After a delicious breakfast at the riad, we begin our guided tour of the new part of Fez, visiting the Royal Palace, the Jewish Quarter (Mellah), and then a viewpoint overlooking the entire medina from the South Tower and the mosques. Afterward, we'll explore the medina on foot, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its labyrinthine alleyways, organized by guilds of potters, dyers, and other artisans, and the bustling activity of its people will transport us centuries back in time. We'll feel as if it's a medieval city, and that time seems to have stood still at the Magana Bounania clock, 1,200 years after its construction—a true marvel! Overnight stay in a riad.

Day 7 – Fez – Ifrane – Monkey Forest – Midelt – Merzouga

After breakfast, we will pick you up from your hotel and depart for Midelt, known for its apple orchards. Our journey will take us through Ifrane, the "Moroccan Switzerland," and the Great Cedar Forest, also known for its many monkey families, located near the city of Azrou. We will stop to see and feed the monkeys. We will continue through Midelt and then depart for Merzouga, the desert. We will arrive in Merzouga in the afternoon. Transfer to your riad for the night. Free time for your first glimpse of the dunes. Accommodation in a riad very close to the dunes.

Day 8 – Merzouga – Khamlia – Camel tour and night in Nomadic Berber tents

We're already in the desert, and today will be a day of total desert immersion. After a hearty and delicious breakfast, we'll circle Erg Chebbi, a vast expanse of sand dunes where Morocco's Great Dune, over 250 meters high, is located. We'll arrive at the village of Khamlia, originally from Mali, where we'll relax with tea while enjoying a short Gnawa spiritual music concert. We'll return to the hotel to depart on a camel caravan into the heart of the dunes and witness an unforgettable sunset. We'll arrive by camel at the camp where we'll stay in traditional Berber tents. Dinner and overnight stay in tents in the heart of the desert, under a spectacular blanket of stars.

Day 9 – Merzouga Desert – Rissani Market – Todra Gorges – Dades Valley

“"A Date with Sunrise": Since you're in the desert, it's recommended to get up early and walk to the highest dune near the camp to enjoy the sunrise and the relaxing landscape that nature offers. We'll return to the village of Merzouga by camel. After a hearty breakfast, it's time to say goodbye to the desert and depart for Rissani, where we'll visit its market. We'll continue on to Erfoud, where there's also the option to visit the fossilized marble factory before continuing to the palm groves of Touroug and Tinjdad. Later, we'll arrive at one of the highlights of the south: the Todra Gorge. The Todra River has carved a gorge with enormous, vertical walls of great beauty; it's a paradise for climbers and a truly unique place. A half-hour walk is recommended to see and appreciate the gorge in detail. In the afternoon, we'll continue to the Dadès Valley, also known as the Valley of Figs, and passing through Boumalne Dadès, we'll stop at the "monkey's paws" rock formations. Dinner and overnight stay in the Dades Gorges.

Day 10 – Dadés Valley – Ouarzazate – Ait Ben Haddou – Ouarzazate

After breakfast, we'll depart for Ouarzazate, also known as the gateway to the desert. There, you'll have the option to visit the film studios. Later, you'll visit the beautiful Kasbah of Ait Ben Haddou, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the filming location for renowned movies such as Gladiator, Kingdom of Heaven, and The Jewel of the Nile. After the visit, we'll return to Ouarzazate for the night.

Day 11 – Ouarzazate – Essaouira

After breakfast, we'll depart for Essaouira, formerly Mogador. Built by the Portuguese on a narrow peninsula beside a vast crescent of fine sand, Essaouira offers panoramic views of the fishing port, fortifications, and Spanish cannons from the top of the Skala. The city is largely pedestrianized and divided into distinct neighborhoods by its grid-like layout. Essaouira is also renowned for its exquisite craftsmanship, particularly objects made from thuya wood inlaid with lemonwood, ebony, mother-of-pearl, or copper and silver threads. If you enjoy seafood, you'll be delighted with a delicious meal at the port. Overnight in a riad.

Day 12 – Essaouira – Marrakech

Free day to enjoy the city, the sea, and the beach. In the afternoon, we will return to Marrakech for the night. Accommodation in a riad.

Day 13 – Marrakech – Ouzoud Waterfalls – Marrakech

Excursion to Ouzoud to visit Morocco's most famous waterfalls, near the village of the same name. Their impressive 100-meter height feeds the waters of the el-Abid River. We will return to Marrakech in the afternoon. Overnight stay in a riad.

Day 14 – Marrakech

After breakfast, you'll enjoy a guided tour of Marrakech, taking in all the historical and cultural highlights, including the Koutoubia Mosque, the Saadian Tombs, the magnificent Bahia Palace, and the Ben Youssef Madrasa. Finally, you can end the morning strolling through the narrow streets of the medina—a chance to admire the various artisans at work—before arriving at the famous Jamaa El Fna square.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We traveled as a family, taking the 5-day desert tour. Our guide, Said, was more than just a driver-guide; he took great care of us, was incredibly attentive to detail, and a fantastic driver. He listened to all our requests and showed us many unforgettable places. A true professional and an even better person. Thank you, Said! As for the agency, we are incredibly grateful to Mila for her hospitality and recommendations.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A group of friends and I took the 5-day desert tour, and this experience will stay with me forever... everything was wonderful. From my first contact with Mila when making the reservation, she was in touch with me, acting as the group's spokesperson, long before the trip even started, answering all my questions and more! The organization was absolutely perfect, the hotels were generally very good, and a special mention goes to the Nomad Desert Hotel, which was truly beautiful, as was the Berber tent camp. The breakfast and dinner, which were included in the price, were very good, and thanks to the excellent advice and attention of our guide, Mohamed, the lunch, which wasn't included, was also perfect. Mohamed deserves a special mention in my comments, as he made the trip so much fun and we felt like family. He's a very endearing person and incredibly knowledgeable about his region, so his explanations were fascinating. Thanks to him, we were able to better understand the way of life of the desert people. Everything we saw was breathtaking. Although the journey to the desert from Marrakech is quite long and includes stretches of winding mountain road (the road is very good and new, so don't worry), Mohamed made it seem much shorter. He's a fantastic driver. As he says, if you learn to drive on the dunes, everything else is easy. I encourage anyone wanting to visit the Moroccan desert to book with them. You'll return home, just like we did, wanting to do it again. Thank you so much, Mohamed, Mila, and Ismail, for making this possible. Mohamed!! Hugs, my friend!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We are a group of seven friends who just returned from this wonderful desert trip. We took a five-day tour. It was a unique and unforgettable experience with Mohammed, our guide, who was always friendly, always providing timely, concise, and clear explanations. He answered any questions we had and was always willing to help. He is also an excellent driver. The hotels we chose were very good. The desert tents were lovely and charming, with private bathrooms and showers. Our hotel in the desert was the Nomad Palace, and it was wonderful in terms of location, food, staff, entertainment, and accommodations. The meals were also excellent. It's clear this company has experience because everything is well-organized and planned. As constructive criticism, I would suggest providing a speaker or microphone for the guide/driver in the van because those sitting in the back row can't hear the guide's explanations due to being too far away. Mohammed, our guide, repeated his explanations without any problem... but it's an issue that needs improvement.

 Verified From Fez to the desertWe decided to take a trip with friends to explore Morocco. We took the advice of Ismael, our guide, who planned the trip according to our preferences. We started in Marrakech, where he gave us a guided tour of the city, and afterwards we had free time which we used to go to the souk and try different food stalls. The next day we headed towards the desert, stopping along the way to visit Ouarzazate, Dades, the Todra Gorge, and more. In the desert, we did several activities: quad biking, visiting markets, watching sunsets, visiting nomads—in short, we loved it. We plan to repeat the experience to continue exploring Morocco, and we'll definitely do it again with ViajesDesierto, an experience we highly recommend to everyone.

We were very well accompanied and looked after by Mohamed, an excellent guide—very friendly, kind, and attentive—who gave great explanations about his country. The organization by the agency was impeccable. Not a single problem throughout the entire trip. Highly recommended!

Thanks to him, the trip was very enjoyable and fun. He's a really great guy. The desert was an incredible experience. We went on a camel trek and rode quad bikes to see the sunrise; it was one of the best experiences of our lives. If we go back, or if someone we know is interested in doing this tour, we will definitely recommend doing it with this agency and especially with Ahmed.

 Verified 100% experience highly recommended!!A fantastic experience to share with friends, family, or even solo! All the activities were incredible: the many places we visited by car, the camel ride, the night in the desert, the sunrise while riding quad bikes… And above all, a special mention to our driver, Ahmed, who was such a great companion that for a few days it felt like he was traveling with us rather than guiding us. A wonderful person, always concerned about our comfort and safety, willing to share the experience with us as if he were one of the group, curious about our concerns, and eager to learn about us and our country, as well as show us his own. All this and much more made this a truly enriching experience for me and my friends. Highly recommended!

 Verified Incredible experience with @viajesdesierto.com 🌵✨ Everything was super well organized, the guides were friendly, and the scenery was like something out of a movie. AMy trip with ViajesDesierto.com was, honestly, one of the best experiences I've ever had. From the very first moment, the service was excellent: Mila and Ismael were attentive to every detail, answering all my questions and tailoring the itinerary exactly to what I was looking for. During the trip, everything was perfectly organized: the transfers, the riads, the desert camp—even the schedules were perfect! The drivers and guides spoke Spanish, were friendly, and shared so much about Berber culture and desert life, which made the experience much more authentic. The most magical moment was undoubtedly the night in the desert, under a sky full of stars, with music, a campfire, and an unforgettable silence. I felt it wasn't just a trip, but a human and cultural adventure.

A wonderful place filled with objects that transport you to countless places and stories. But the best part, without a doubt, was meeting Ahmed and sitting down to chat with him. What a fantastic person! I'm already looking forward to going back and taking a trip to the desert, since we didn't have the chance this time. With all the things he told us, we can't wait to return and share a trip with him.

He went at our pace, catered to our requests for food, and took us wherever we wanted, without any rush. The experience was very good. The only slight inconvenience was that we had to pay in cash, and we didn't travel with cash. We were able to resolve this with a Western Union transfer. Otherwise, the experience was excellent.
