Cross mountains, medinas and sand on this guided 11‑day loop from Casablanca to Fez, Marrakech and the Erg Chebbi dunes. Expect city guides, a 4x4 desert tour, camel treks and a private nomad camp experience.
You step off the shuttle in Casablanca and the air carries sea salt, diesel and the faint scent of spices; the city’s broad avenues give way within hours to ochre kasbahs, cedar forests and a horizon of sand. This 11‑day circuit threads Morocco’s landmarks — Casablanca’s Hassan II Mosque, Marrakech’s frenetic souks, the High Atlas ridge at Tizi n’Tichka (2,260 m), the film sets of Ouarzazate, and the rolling Erg Chebbi dunes where a private nomad camp waits.

You step off the shuttle in Casablanca and the air carries sea salt, diesel and the faint scent of spices; the city’s broad avenues give way within hours to ochre kasbahs, cedar forests and a horizon of sand. This 11‑day circuit threads Morocco’s landmarks — Casablanca’s Hassan II Mosque, Marrakech’s frenetic souks, the High Atlas ridge at Tizi n’Tichka (2,260 m), the film sets of Ouarzazate, and the rolling Erg Chebbi dunes where a private nomad camp waits.
The route follows trade and cultural veins that have shaped Morocco for millennia: Roman Volubilis, Andalusian-influenced medinas, and Berber villages that still maintain seasonal agricultural rhythms. Geologically the tour moves from Atlantic coastal plains through folded Atlas ranges to wind-sculpted Sahara sand — a change in terrain you feel underfoot and in the light.
Expect guided city walks in Fez and Marrakech, a drive across mountain passes with panoramic pullouts, a 4x4 exploration of desert villages, and a one‑and‑a‑half hour camel ride into sunset. Nights alternate between 4‑star riads and a private luxury tent in the desert with dinner, breakfast and local music by the campfire. Group sizes are small (max eight); pickups from Casablanca airport are included.
Practical notes: pack layered clothing for hot days and cool nights, strong sun protection, and sturdy shoes for uneven medina streets and short canyon treks. Sunrise in the dunes is worth the early alarm — bring a headlamp for pre‑dawn walks. If you want slower pacing or specific dietary needs, arrange them before departure; passports and one checked bag plus carry‑on are standard limits.
The tour is rated moderate: most activities are low‑impact guided walks, short camel rides and 4x4 transfers; long driving days require endurance rather than technical fitness.
Operators typically allow one suitcase and one carry‑on per traveler; check in advance for oversized items like bikes or surfboards.
Most breakfasts and dinners (10 dinners, 10 breakfasts) plus selected riads and a private desert tent are included as outlined in the itinerary.
Yes — the overnight is in a private luxury nomad tent with facilities, local entertainment, and established camp protocols for guest safety.
