5 Days tour from Fes to Marrakech itinerary

The 5-Day Morocco itinerary tour starts from your accommodation, or the Airport and head to the Sahara Desert. Along the way, you will have the opportunity to explore the diverse landscapes of the Middle Atlas region. An hour after the departure, we make a small stop in Ifrane, known as the “Switzerland of Morocco,” to admire its alpine architecture and crisp mountain air. Next Continue through the majestic Cedar Forest, home to Barbary macaques and ancient trees steeped in legend. After a delightful lunch in Zaida, journey onward through the breathtaking Ziz Valley, where verdant palm groves contrast with the arid desert terrain.

Prepare yourself for an unforgettable camel trek into the Sahara Desert’s dunes, where the golden sands stretch endlessly under the vast desert sky. As night falls, settle into a traditional Berber camp, where the warmth of hospitality and the magic of the desert awaits, promising an enchanting stay beneath the stars.

Today, we will explore the desert region. Wake up early to witness the best sunrise in your life. After your breakfast ride back, your camels or your driver guide will come to pick you up from the camp. Both options are available. First We will greet the backpackers with a tea glass in their traditional tent, handmade from camel skin, during today’s visit. After spending an hour with the Nomads, we tip them and proceed to Mefiss, the location of numerous mines discovered during the French colonization of Morocco.

Furthermore, we will pay a short visit to the Gnawa in Khamila Village to learn and listen to their amazing African instruments. Later, we pause for lunch in the same village. After visiting Merzouga Center and the oasis, we will later drop you off at a wonderful hotel, where you can enjoy the remainder of the afternoon. Feel free to ask if you wish to rent a quad.

Ready to leave the breathtaking desert of Merzouga? Take a last wander at the closest dune to your hotel as a way to say goodbye to this absolutely incredible area. After completing your activities, we will proceed to Rissani, renowned for its breathtaking market that operates three times a week. If we are lucky, we will come on the day of the souk, a day where everybody is busy either selling or buying something. The market welcomes people from over 360 villages.

Later, once we finish the strolling, we drive to Todgha Gorge, a must-see tourist attraction in Morocco. The Todga River carved the Todra Gorge, a natural oasis in the eastern part of the Atlas Mountains, through limestone over centuries. With canyon walls reaching over 400 meters high, it is taller than the Empire State Building in New York. Once we reach Boumalne, Dades, we drop you off in a quaint riad.
