4 Days Tour Casablanca to Marrakech Itinerary

Day 1: Casablanca ⇢ Rabat ⇢ Fes.

Starting from Casablanca, this coastal city warmly welcomes guests with open arms and the hospitality of Morocco. After a short trip around its modernity and historic sides-which include the famous Hassan II Mosque-it will be on to Rabat, the capital of Morocco.

You will be allowed to roam around the ancient domain of Kasbah of the Udayas, marvel at the ancient Royal Palace of Rabat, and walk on the sandy beach.

Continuing to Fes, guests can take in the scenery of the countryside, having lunch in Moroccan style. The day will end in medieval Fes, engulfed by city walls and the hustle and bustle of life.

Day 2: Fes ⇢ Ifrane ⇢ Ziz Valley ⇢ Merzouga Desert.

After breakfast, the tour heads toward Ifrane, a cool little town with a Swiss-like ambiance in the heart of the Middle Atlas Mountains. Famous for alpine architecture and scenery, Ifrane seems like a hidden pearl in Morocco.

After this, our descent begins into the emerald green Ziz Valley, with its palm trees and cliffs of exquisite red rock, and at the same time, luxuriating in the scenery.

Further into the desert, the heat seems to live its way through the glass of the car, and all that remains is a memory of sand dunes from everywhere. The evening in Oasis town Merzouga concludes with a camel ride deep into the Sahara, gazing at the sunset over the dunes before settling down under the stars in a traditional desert camp.

Day 3: Merzouga ⇢ Rissani ⇢ Todra Canyon ⇢ Dades Gorges.

Don’t forget to catch breathtaking vistas on your way back on a camel with Merzouga being the place where you, with utmost praises, would enjoy breakfast. Rissani will be your final destination; it is specifically for the ancient ksars and the lively local souk.

Then on to Todra Canyon, which will etch those memory-trapped cliffs high in those skies in your consciousness forever. Certainly, it was and will always be that good for photographers and nature-loving enthusiasts.

Afterward, we proceed on a glorious drive through the Dades Valley, where unworldly mountain shapes, traditional Berber villages, and lush greenery will amaze you. Our last destination for the day will be Todra Gorges, where we will overnight.

Day 4: Dades Gorges ⇢ Ouarzazate ⇢ Ait Ben Haddou Kasbah ⇢ Marrakech.

On the last day, we’ll take you to Morocco’s Film Capital: Ouarzazate. The most famous one, Atlas Film Studios, saw the shooting of some of the most famous films in history-Gladiator, The Mummy, and several others. Check out Kasbah Ait Ben Haddou, UNESCO listed, where it formed a set for several film shootings.

We cross the magnificent Ait Atlas Mountains by the Tizi n’Tichka Pass, from where we can see the amazing view in the direction of snow-crowned mountains and deep valleys.

And finally, a lively city called Marrakech marks an end to this great adventure in Morocco, but the dessert and mountains, among other things that had cast that bewitching spell of Morocco, remain in rich memory.
