5 Days Tour From Marrakech To Tangier

To kick off our second day in the Sahara, we'll take a leisurely walk between the gorges to take in the breathtaking scenery. Our next stop is Todra Gorges, a historic river canyon. After a pleasant stay, we'll continue on to the Sahara desert town of Merzouga, passing via Erfoud (famous for its fossils and dates; stop here to see a factory with a museum dedicated to these ancient artifacts) and Rissani.

You'll get up early to try out the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to view a breathtaking sunrise from atop a sand dune in the desert. After that, we ride camels back to the hotel for some much-needed showers and breakfast before we leave the desert. The Ziz valley will be seen, and then the Atlas Mountains (pass of Tizi Talghomt, 1907m alt.) will be crossed on route to Fes. We will stop at the national cedar forest near Azrou to view the local monkeys. Next, we'll stop at Ifrane, often called the "Switzerland of Morocco," on our way to Fez, where we'll spend the night.

You will spend the day seeing Morocco's intellectual and cultural center, the Medina of Fes. The royal palace, the Jewish neighborhood, the view from the Bourj's acropolis, and the ceramic pottery shop and factory are the first stops on your tour.

This is the 5th and final day of our 5 days tour from marrakech to Tanger. You will have some time in the morning to explore the beauty of the blue city of Chafchaouen on your own. Chafchaouen was established in 1471. The Jewish and Berber people resided in Chafchaouen prior to the Spanish colonization. People were painting their homes in blue to keep the bugs away, and the blue represents paradise. In the afternoon, we will go to the north of Morocco. After a two-and-a-half hour drive from Chafchaouen, we'll arrive in Tanger, where we'll drop you off at your hotel or riad.
