Places, experiences and memorable moments

Discover Morocco from Chefchaouen

This 6-day tour begins in the blue city of Chefchaouen and follows our original private itinerary toward the cultural cities, mountains, dunes and southern valleys of Morocco.

Your daily private tour programme

Travel privately from Chefchaouen to Fes via the countryside and smaller towns between the overnight stops. Your driver keeps the day practical while leaving enough flexibility for scenic pauses, short walks and local visits along the route. Fes adds a deep cultural layer to the journey, with its historic medina, craft quarters, religious landmarks and centuries-old urban fabric. The main experiences are Rif Mountain scenery and Chefchaouen’s blue medina. Exact timing can shift with traffic, weather and opening hours, so the day is planned with enough margin to stay relaxed.

An introduction to the northern cities

This private journey is planned around the interests of your group, with route choices explained before confirmation.

Time for Fes and its historic medina

Spend the day exploring Fes, one of Morocco’s most historic imperial cities. A local guide, when included in your confirmed quotation, can lead you through the lanes of Fes el Bali, explain traditional craft workshops and introduce the city’s religious and architectural heritage. The medina is best experienced on foot; allow time for its lively souks and viewpoints rather than trying to cover every landmark. Entry to individual monuments and the services of a licensed guide depend on your booked package.

01

CHEFCHAOUEN – FES

Leave Chefchaouen for Fes, passing the northern Moroccan countryside. Your itinerary can include a guided medina visit if your arrival time allows, or a relaxed evening before the next day. Chefchaouen is known for its blue medina in the Rif Mountains, with lanes, slopes and steps best explored without rushing. Fes has a historic medina of lanes, artisan workshops and traditional architecture; guiding or admissions are included only when booked. The daily route “CHEFCHAOUEN – FES” must allow for actual road conditions, breaks and the overnight arrangement. Before confirming, review any optional guides, tickets and activities shown separately in the quotation.

02

GUIDED EXCURSION IN FES

Discover Fes with a local guide if included in your booking. The old medina, traditional crafts and historic monuments provide a rich day of exploration, with entrances and guide services agreed in advance. Fes has a historic medina of lanes, artisan workshops and traditional architecture; guiding or admissions are included only when booked. On the stage “GUIDED EXCURSION IN FES”, the sequence of stops is organised around realistic driving times. Your proposal distinguishes agreed visits from optional experiences and identifies where the day begins and finishes.

03

FES – IFRAN – MIDELT – ERRACHIDIA – ERFOUD – MERZOUGA

Continue from Fes to Merzouga on a private route through Ifran, Midelt, Errachidia and Erfoud. The schedule is deliberately adaptable, so road conditions, daylight and your interests can shape the exact timing of each stop. Midelt provides a natural pause between the Middle Atlas and the Ziz Valley, framed by mountain scenery. Errachidia marks the transition into the Ziz and Tafilalt region on the approach to the desert. This stage combines a camel trek into Erg Chebbi, sunset over the dunes, a Sahara camp evening. With no coach timetable to follow, photo stops, refreshments and short walks can fit naturally into the day.

04

MERZOUGA – TODRA GORGE – DADES GORGES

Leave Merzouga with your private driver and continue toward Dades Gorges. The route passes Todra Gorge, with time built in for viewpoints, short visits and comfortable breaks rather than the fixed pace of a group tour. The Dades Gorges bring dramatic rock formations, viewpoints and traditional villages to this stage of the route. Today is shaped around sunrise over Erg Chebbi, the transition from dunes back to oasis and valley landscapes, gorge scenery and short walks. Private transport makes it easier to pause where the route is most interesting and move on when a stop needs less time.

05

DADES GORGES – SKOURA – OUARZAZATE – AIT BEN HADDOU – MARRAKECH

Today’s private drive links Dades Gorges with Marrakech. Stops around Skoura, Ouarzazate and Ait Ben Haddou add a different mix of landscape and local life, and the timing can flex around the places that interest you most. Around Skoura, palm groves and historic kasbahs break up the drive through the oasis landscape. Ouarzazate introduces the kasbah landscapes and film locations of southern Morocco before the road continues deeper into the valleys. The main experiences are gorge scenery and short walks, kasbah architecture and southern Morocco’s film landscapes. Exact timing can shift with traffic, weather and opening hours, so the day is planned with enough margin to stay relaxed.

06

MARRAKECH EXCURSION

Discover Marrakech at a comfortable pace, beginning with the atmosphere of its historic medina and traditional souks. Depending on your interests and opening hours, your programme can feature the Bahia Palace, the Koutoubia Mosque exterior, artisan quarters and Jemaa el-Fnaa square. A licensed city guide and entrance tickets can be arranged if included in the confirmed proposal. The day can end with a transfer to your accommodation or an agreed departure point in Marrakech. Marrakech offers its historic medina, souks and squares, with the sights that fit depending on the day’s available time.
