Dinner and lodging in your choice of Hotel/Riad.


FEZ

DAY 3

FREE DAY in Fez. (You will have the choice of a local guide if you wish). The whole day will be devoted to discovering Fez, a UNESCO World Heritage and the oldest of the imperial cities, and one of the most complete medieval cities in existence. Surrounded by huge defensive walls, it seems suspended in a time warp, somewhere between the Middle Ages and the modern. But it’s more than that, it is a living city almost devoid of tourists, where whilst wandering amongst its amazing 9,000 tiny streets you experience its noisy hawkers selling everything from colorful vegetables, to delicious middle eastern pastries flavored with cinnamon and honey. Walk through the maze-like souks of the old medina and visit the Zaouia (sanctuary) of MoulayIdriss II, founder of Fez. Fez served as the capital of Morocco for more than 350 years and is home to the University of Al Karaouine, the oldest operating university in the world. Visit the Moulay Idriss mausoleum, the Nejjarine Fountains and the Tanneries. After visiting the old medina another option is to visit the exterior of the Royal Palace and walk through the famous Jewish quarter “the Mellah”, where you can visit one of the few living synagogues in Morocco, and also see the oldest mosque in Fez. Fez has always been associated with education and religion, and to this day continues to be the spiritual capital of Morocco.


FEZ-ERG CHEBBI DESERT

DAY 4

EEarly rise to continue our tour. Our driver will pick you up at your Hotel / Riad in Fez. We start to discover some of Morocco's beautiful mountainous landscape today as we leave Fez and follow the ancient caravan routes up into the hills. Along the way we'll stop at Ifran, known as the ''Switzerland of Morocco'' and a huge contrast to some of the other more Arabic feeling cities you'll see in Morocco. We will drive through the cedar forests of Azrou where the wild monkeys are located. It will be a good opportunity to take photos of wilderness in Morocco. We continue our journey through the Middle Atlas Mountains enjoying the landscapes to arrive at the small town of Midelt where we’ll stop for lunch. Next, we head on through the hills and through the scenic Ziz Valley as we descend to Erfoud on the edge of the Sahara Desert. We'll then drive in 4WD vehicles through the desert to Merzouga and the famous Erg Chebbi sand dunes. Here we transfer to camels (dromedaries) and take a sunset camel ride through the sand dunes to a traditional Berber camp nestled right on the edge of the dunes. You can enjoy some spectacular views over the sand dunes as the sun sinks below the horizon before enjoying a hearty Berber meal and a campfire this evening, often with local musicians helping enhance the atmosphere. You spend the night sleeping in comfortable Berber tents (jaima) in the heart of the desert under a blanket of stars.


ERG CHEBBI DESERT-OUARZAZATE

DAY 5

Early rise to watch the sunrise over the spectacular Merzouga dunes around the camp. This is a once in a lifetime experience that you will not soon forget and one of the high points of our journey. We will return by camels (dromedaries) to the town of Merzouga where we will have breakfast. We continue towards the Valley of Dades via a road speckled with different kasbahs that were built here for the added protection the valley provides, giving this area its name the “Land of a Thousand Kasbah”. After several stops along the road to enjoy the Valley of the Roses and the big Skoura palm grove we`ll get to Ouarzazate. Ouarzazate is a city south of Morocco’s High Atlas Mountains, known as a “The gate of the Desert”, its name comes from a Berber phrase meaning "without noise" or "without confusion", it is also famous for its movie studios.


OUARZAZATE-MARRAKECH

DAY 6

After breakfast we will visit the Taourirt Kasbah, home to a 19th-century palace. We will then reach Ait Ben Haddou, an ighrem (fortified village), and traditional Mud Brick city on the edge of the High Atlas Mountains. It is on the UNESCO World Heritage List and has been featured in many films including Lawrence of Arabia, Gladiator, Game of Thrones and many others. Driving through the High Atlas Mountains via the Tizi n’Tichka Pass, that with 2.260m is the highest point in our country, we´ll then enjoy beautiful landscapes and make some stops to take pictures of the berber villages. We´ll continue through the Ounila valley, where you can see the small berber villages and kasbahs built in caves, that speckle the mountains. Then we´ll take the ancient caravan road that joined the cities of Ouarzazate and MARRAKECH, finally taking us to the Telouat Kasbah. We continue on to MARRAKECH “The Red City”.
Dinner and lodging at Hotel/Riad of your choice.


MARRAKECH

DAY 7

FREE DAY (Guided tour if chosen). MARRAKECH, a former imperial city in western Morocco is also known as the ―Red City or ―Pink City due to the distinctive hue of the local earth used in the construction of its many brick buildings. The medina, is a densely packed, walled medieval city dating to the Berber Empire, with maze like alleys where thriving souks (marketplaces) sell traditional textiles, pottery and jewelry. Marvel at the city's architectural jewels, including the soaring Koutoubia minaret and Dar Si Said; housed in a palace, it is among the most beautiful of its kind in the world. Visit the Bahia Palace, an exemplary specimen of privileged life in the 19th century. Then visit Djemaa el-Fna, MARRAKECH’s main square, which is filled with orange juice stalls and vendors, and is well worth returning to in the evenings when it is packed with street food stalls, fire-eaters, mime artists, snake charmers and street musicians performing at every turn. Also, worth seeing is the 16th century Saadines Tomb, where Saadian royalty found their final resting place, and the magnificent Majorelle Botanical Gardens, inspired by French artists and fashion designer Yves St. Laurent. In the middle of the old market (Rahba Lakdima) you'll find queues of stalls filled with jars upon jars of spices, petals, bark and leaves inside.
