After visiting the Royal Palace, Chellah Ruins, Hassan Tower, Mohamed V Mausoleum and the Oudayas Gardens, we’ll depart for Fes, where we’ll stay overnight. Day 3 Fes Today we’ll explore the oldest imperial city of Morrocco with more than 10,000 tiny streets offering the largest “medina” (old city) and souks in the world. The Bab Boujloud Gate, Bou Inania Medersa, Moulay Idriss Mausoleum, Andalusian and Quaraouiyine Mosques, Najjarine Square and the Spices Market, Atarine Medersa, the surroundings of Karaouine Medina and Mellah will be the sites visited today. Overnight stay in Fes. Day 4 Fes, Midelt, Erfoud After breakfast we’ll depart for Midelt passing through the Atlas mountains. Midelt is an impressive mountain city at 1488 metres above sea level, remarkably situated down the Jbel Ayachi (3737 m). In the afternoon we’ll continue to Erfoud via the Canyon of Ziz and the lake of the retaining reservoir Hassan Addakhil. Later we’ll arrive in Erfoud, the city situated at the gates of Tafilalet.

In the afternoon we’ll arrive in Marrakech and start to explore this fascinating city. Marrakech is the point where the Arab culture of the cities meets the Berber culture of the mountain villages; where the weary sub-Saharan traders (carrying gold, salt and slaves) would ply their wares to the merchants who would then bring them to Europe. Overnight stay in Marrakech. Day 7 Marrakech Framed by the snowy heights of the Atlas, with rose-coloured ramparts and a thousand year old palm grove, Marrakech casts a magic spell.

Savouring grilled sardines and fish at the Essaouira port is a spectacular way to spend the evening. Day 9 Essaouira, Agadir After a scenic drive along the Atlantic coast passing palm groves, Berber villages and kasbahs we reach Agadir, Morocco’s number one sea resort.
