This 7 Day Morocco Tour from Marrakech invites you to experience Morocco’s most captivating landscapes, from the vibrant streets of Marrakech to the ancient kasbahs of the south and the golden dunes of the Sahara. Throughout the journey, you will stay in authentic riads and charming desert lodges, meet local Berber communities, explore UNESCO-listed sites, and witness one of the world’s most unforgettable sunsets over the dunes of Erg Chebbi. This route is designed for travellers who want a rich mix of culture, history, scenery, and genuine desert experiences.
Upon landing in Marrakech, a warm welcome awaits as you are transferred to your traditional riad inside the atmospheric Medina. You’ll have the rest of the day free to soak in the energy of the city at your own pace. Wander through the bustling alleys leading to Jemaa el-Fnaa, listen to the storytellers, browse vibrant souks, or simply enjoy the rooftop views from your riad as you settle into Morocco’s most enchanting city.
The day begins with an optional private guided tour led by a certified Marrakech guide. This journey through the Red City covers centuries of history and craftsmanship. You’ll see the magnificent Koutoubia Mosque from the outside, stroll through the labyrinth of souks, and continue to atmospheric landmarks such as the Saadian Tombs and the beautifully adorned Bahia Palace. Depending on your pace, you may also visit the serene Majorelle Gardens or the historic Ali Ben Youssef Medersa. Enjoy another relaxing evening at your riad in the heart of the Medina.
After breakfast, your adventure into southern Morocco begins. You travel across the snow-capped peaks and winding roads of the High Atlas Mountains, where breathtaking landscapes unfold at every turn.
A visit awaits at Ait Ben Haddou, one of the world’s most iconic ksars and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, known for its dramatic architecture and cinematic fame.
Continuing toward Ouarzazate, often referred to as the “Gateway to the Sahara,” you explore the historic Kasbah Taourirte, once a residence of powerful local leaders. Your final stop is Skoura, a palm-filled oasis dotted with ancient kasbahs. Here, you visit the 17th-century Kasbah Amerhidil, one of the most beautiful fortresses in the region. Dinner and overnight at a charming local hotel surrounded by the tranquility of the oasis.
Your 7 Day Morocco Tour shifts dramatically as you approach the ever-changing landscapes of the Sahara. By the afternoon, you arrive at a cozy Auberge facing the majestic dunes of Erg Chebbi. A camel trek awaits, carrying you deep into the golden sea of sand while the sun paints the sky with warm colors. At the desert camp, enjoy an unforgettable evening under a canopy of stars, accompanied by traditional music and a freshly prepared dinner. If you prefer, you may return to the Auberge after the sunset camel ride for a night in a comfortable room instead of camping.
This day is dedicated to discovering the lifestyle, landscapes, and culture that make the Sahara so unique. You begin by visiting Khamlia, a village known for its ancient Gnawa rhythms, where you can enjoy a musical session with local artists.
Continue across desert tracks once used in the legendary Paris–Dakar Rally, uncover fossil sites, meet nomadic families living between the dunes, and enjoy views of Merzouga’s serene seasonal lake an oasis for migrating birds when full. After a day filled with desert wonders, return to your Auberge for dinner and spend the night in a beautifully designed Saharan-style room.
Wake early to witness a breathtaking sunrise over the dunes before beginning your journey back toward the south. The route passes through Alnif and continues along scenic valleys lined with palm groves and old caravan paths.
You’ll travel through the upper sections of the Drâa Valley one of Morocco’s most historically important oasis routes before arriving in Ouarzazate once again. Settle into your riad for dinner and a restful evening in this peaceful desert-edge town.
Your final day leads you once more across the High Atlas Mountains, but the landscapes feel new as you see them from the opposite direction. After descending the winding Tizi n’Tichka Pass, you arrive back in Marrakech, where you are transferred to your riad or preferred drop-off point. This marks the end of your journey filled with memories of kasbahs, desert horizons, and the warm hospitality of southern Morocco.
