6 days Tangier Marrakech desert tour

Itinerary:

Day 1: Tangier-Chefchaouen:

We will transport you from Tangier to Chefchaouen as soon as you get to in the capital. The next stop will be at Tetouan. Next, proceed to Chefchaouen. Its meaning in the Amazigh language is “horns.” It is located between the two mountains. Once you reach this region, which is famous for its blue and white architecture, you will be able to enjoy the region’s culinary arts and walk through its bright streets. You will spend the night in a hotel or riad in this city, where you can relax and recuperate.

Day 2: Chefchaouen – Volubilis – Meknes – Fes:

The morning begins with the refreshing wind of Chefchaouen; later, our journey will lead us to the ruins of Volubilis. The ruins are a remarkable example of the numerous civilizations that have made Morocco their home and whose cultural legacy is still visible today. Due to its natural attractiveness and historical significance, it is an excellent place for a promenade. Our next stop will be the imperial city of Meknes, formerly the capital of the Moroccan sultanate of Moulay Ismail; you will explore this ancient site and be captivated by its majesty. The old city of Fes, the cultural center of Morocco and one of the world’s most intact medieval Islamic capitals will be our final destination. Overnight in Riad/Hotel.

Day 3: Fes guided tour:

We are going to dedicate an entire day to exploring Fez; we typically employ a local guide and accompany him or her throughout the city. Attarine Fountain, Medresahs, Shahrij, Bouinania, Royal Palace Gate, Zoco, Fes El-Jedid, and the Qaraouine Mosque are just some of the attractions to visit. In the afternoon, we continue touring these attractions or have time to explore on our own. The night is spent in your accommodation.

Day 4: Fes-Azrou-Midelt-Ziz Valley-Merzouga:

We have an entire day to explore the unique and captivating landscapes that make the six-day voyage from Tangier so special. Be active for Barbary monkeys as you go through the cedar and pine forests. Before arriving at the dunes of the Sahara Desert for a camel ride, cross the Middle Atlas Mountains, the pre-desert landscape, and the deep gorges with a majestic oasis of verdant palm trees. We spend the night in a tent in the desert.

Day 5: Merzouga-Rissani-Tinghir-Dades gorges:

Today, we will leave to the breathtaking Dades Valley by traveling through Rissani and Erfoud, a town known for its petrified marbles, where you will see a workshop producing marble fossils. The majority of the villagers on the other side of the river, attracted by the tourism industry, live in more modern homes. Then, we travel to Dades via the Todra Gorge, a beautiful location for hiking and wandering on our own. Spend the night in a Riad.

Day 6: Dades gorges-Ouarzazate-Atlas montains-Marrakech:

We will visit Ait Benhaddou, a “fortified kasbah” located on the historic trade route between the Sahara and Marrakech. On a hill overlooking the Ouarzazate River, it’s made up of several inhabited kasbahs. The UNESCO World Heritage Site has appeared in a number of films, including Lawrence of Arabia, Gladiator, and Game of Thrones. After lunch, we cross the High Atlas Mountains to reach Marrakech. Our 6 days tour from Tangier concludes in Marrakech.
