Itinerary & map

What you'll see

Welcome to Morocco! Located on the northern Atlantic coast of Africa, this colourful country is brimming with Mediterranean influence. Full of well-preserved history, Morocco is famous for its ancient cities, ornate palaces and places of worship and labyrinthine markets. Though often associated with its desert expanse, Morocco is in fact a haven of verdant green landscapes, rugged mountainous ranges, fertile valleys and beautiful beaches – as well as some of the most fresh and fragrant cuisine you’ll find the world over.

Upon arrival to Casablanca Mohammed V International Airport (CMN), you’ll be greeted by a private concierge, who will assist you with your bags and immigration before transporting you to your accommodation. After check-in, relax with a refreshing welcome cocktail while your guide briefs you on your upcoming journey. Later this evening, join your fellow travellers and tour director for a dinner at popular traditional restaurant, Dar Dada.

Inclusions

Barceló Anfa Casablanca – Deluxe Room (Superior Upgrade: Premium Room) or similar

Dinner

Enjoy breakfast at the hotel before setting out to explore Morocco’s economic and industrial capital. With paths lined by palms and the Atlantic Ocean as its backdrop, Casablanca is a bustling metropolis with both modern infrastructure and beautifully preserved colonial architecture. Take in the unique blend of old and new as you visit the city’s most prominent landmarks, such as the Hassan II Mosque, one of Africa’s largest mosques, set on an outcrop over the ocean. Built by King Hassan II, this architectural masterpiece was carved by hand out of stone, wood and marble, and is characterised by its 210-metre-tall minaret.

Continue on through city streets, stopping by one of the most famous urban markets, Marché Central. Round off your morning at the fish market, where fresh seafood fills iced stalls in abundance. Take your pick of the fare and wait as it is prepared for you at a nearby restaurant, where you’ll sit down for a midday meal.

Afterward, set out for Tetouan (approximately a four-hour drive). Check in at the opulent seaside St. Regis La Bahia Blanca Resort in Tamuda Bay and enjoy the rest of the day enjoying the blissful atmosphere.

Inclusions

The St. Regis La Bahia Blanca Resort, Tamuda Bay – Superior Room (Superior Upgrade: Deluxe Room) or similar

Breakfast and Lunch

Following a fuelling breakfast, set out to explore Tetouan. This city has been dubbed the ‘white dove’ of Morocco for its sweewping hills, winged with white houses. It’s also beloved for its central UNESCO World Heritage-listed medina and its Spanish Quarter, which divides the city’s older and newer districts.

Depart for Chefchaouen (approximately a one-hour drive), the Rif Mountains town known for its striking, blue-washed buildings and picturesque medina. Weave through the narrow and winding cobbled streets lined with tanneries, weaving workshops and a number of historical monuments. Then, visit the red-walled casbah at Uta el Hammam, a 15th-century fortress.

You’ll also stop by one of the town’s cheese shops to sample a selection of locally made goat cheeses, learning about different varieties and their production process. Guided by an expert, taste creamy young chevre, complex aged wheels and more, all paired with a selection of complimentary breads, dried fruits and honey.

If time permits, your guide may take you to the Spanish Mosque, an excellent lookout point to see Chefchaouen’s picturesque blues from above.

Return to your opulent Tetouan hotel, and enjoy a restful afternoon at your leisure.

Upon arrival, you’ll make a stop at the acclaimed Les Celliers de Meknes, one of the city’s most well-known wineries before continuing on to explore this heritage marvel.

Delve into the fascinating history of Meknes, beginning at the Bab Mansour, a monumental gate admired for its intricate decoration. Then, see the final resting place of Mouley Ismail, Morocco’s longest-reining sultan. As the mausoleum is one of few spiritual places within Morocco with areas open to the public, seize the opportunity to admire this representation of intricate Islamic design. At Meknes’ central square, Place el Hedim, observe the bustling street markets, making sure to enjoy some traditional Moroccan street food for lunch.

In the afternoon, drive onward another hour to your hotel in Fes for check-in.

Today marks the beginning of your exploration of Morocco’s cultural (and former) capital, Fes. Home to some of the country’s most revered mosques such as the Karaouine Mosque and the shrine of Zaouia Moulay Idriss II, Fes is also commonly regarded as the spiritual seat of Morocco.

Begin the day with a visit to the media, where your guide will introduce you to the unique flavours, ingredients and tradition central to Moroccan cuisine. Then, visit a family-owned riad (a traditional home) and join the staff of a local restaurant as you try your hand at crafting popular Moroccan delicacies. Learn the secrets of the trade and delight in the fruits of your labour, including a salad, main meal and dessert, and a digestif of celebratory Moroccan tea.

After lunch, return to the city’s UNESCO World Heritage-listed medina and navigate its narrow and winding paths, marvelling at the traditional architecture as you take in its vibrant atmosphere. The 13th-century Old Town is Morocco’s largest. You’ll make a stop at one of the world’s oldest universities, the Al-Qarawiyyin Mosque and University, and Bou Inania Madrasa, the only Islamic learning centre in Morocco.

Inclusions

Indulge in a sweet pastry alongside refreshing mint tea, as well as hearty ‘bissara’ bean soup, olives, goat cheese and more.

Continue into the afternoon, as you wander past a number of artisanal workshops showcasing various crafts, spices and textiles. Observe traditional leather tanning at the Chouara Tannery and learn about the craft, then explore the Mellah to learn about Fes’ Jewish heritage.

In the evening, return to your hotel to unwind.

Following breakfast, depart for Bin El Ouidane as your driver spends the day navigating the beautiful landscapes of the Atlas Mountains. Pass Ifrane, a charming town with alpine architecture that has been dubbed the ‘Switzerland of Morocco’. Drive through the whispering cedar forests of Azrou, home to a small population of Barbary macaques.

After a nearly 6-hour drive in total through the scenic valleys and winding country roads, reach the village of Bin El Ouidane, nestled between the snow-capped peaks of the Middle Atlas mountain range. Watch the sun disappear behind the mountains as it casts a glow atop the Lake of Ouidane from the comfort of your luxurious accommodation in the heart of Berber country. Once you’ve had a chance to settle in, join the group for a selection of appetisers showcasing the depth of Moroccan cuisine as you take in panoramic views of the lake, followed by dinner at one of the resort’s own restaurants.

Back at the resort’s kitchen, learn the secrets of Moroccan cooking as you prepare a meal in a traditional tagine. With the chefs’ guidance, you’ll walk through the process step-by-step, then savour the flavours of your work, with the recipes you’ve learned your ultimate souvenir to share with friends and family back home.

In the afternoon, you may wish to explore the resort’s beautiful natural surroundings during an optional outdoor activity like kayaking, paddleboarding or a boat tour across the lake.

Experience their warm hospitality during a traditional tea ceremony accompanied by beldi bread, honey and dried fruits. Afterward, continue to the cascading Ouzoud Falls where you’ll stop for a tagine lunch. Depending on the time of year, the waterfall terraces are a rich ochre red, staining the waters that flow between them, or flanked in verdant vegetation.

Passing terraced plains and more tiny villages, make your way to an argan oil manufacturing facility. Witness the practice of processing and pressing oil from argan seeds, a uniquely Moroccan treasure used for both cosmetic and culinary purposes. You’ll also learn about the importance of the practice for women in the region.

Descend from the mountains toward bustling Marrakech (an approximately 2.5-hour drive). Upon arrival, check in to your hotel, then step out on your own into the forgiving coolness of evening to explore the energetic sights and sounds of the medina and the city’s most famous landmarks.

Inclusions

Breakfast and Lunch

Today, get to know the ‘Red City’ in depth, beginning with a visit to the beautiful Majorelle Gardens of Yves Saint Laurent. Wander the impeccable grounds and relish in this serene oasis in the middle of the bustling city. At its centre, find the cobalt blue Art Deco studio which houses the Musée Berbère, displaying a snapshot of Morocco’s Indigenous generations through some 600 artifacts. Learn the stories of the gardens’ former owner and French painter Jaques Majorelle, whose artistic legacy lives on in the gardens’ preserveation of hundreds of plants and the museum.

Next, it’s time to dive into the heart of the medina to embark on another gastronomic adventure. As you navigate the labyrinth, sample a collection of Moroccan delicacies from freshly baked bread to sweet pastries and fragrant spices. Then head south of the souks to the 19th-century Bahia Palace, once home to sultans and the French governante in Morocco. Its complex of rooms and gardens is filled with intricate tiling, an impressive example of the country’s appreciation of fine architecture. Trace the colourful mosaics and carved stucco designs as you make your way through the former royal residence.

Take the rest of the day to appreciate the comforts of your accommodation or perhaps enjoy another wander through the medina.

As you sit down to lunch, learn about communal dining in Moroccan culture within the serene courtyard or magnificent dining hall of La Maison Arabe.

After lunch, discover the luxurious rituals of an authentic hammam, the traditional public steam bathhouse ritual prominent in Moroccan and Turkish cultures, at elegant Hammam de la Rose (or similar) just outside the medina. Delight in a ‘detox cocktail’ before you partake in a traditional bath (30-minutes) which includes a black soap wrap with indulgent essential oils, an exfoliating scrub, a moisturising treatment for the hands and feet and finally, a relaxing massage with a choice of verbena and jasmine oil, argan oil exfoliant, rosemary oil toner or calming orange blossom essence.
