Overview
The lowdown
From Marrakech’s riot of spice and colour to the silence of the Sahara, this nine-day loop dives headlong into Morocco’s greatest contrasts. You’ll thread your way through the High Atlas, stand inside ancient kasbahs, camp under a billion desert stars, and chase sea spray down the Atlantic coastline of Essouria. It’s the full sweep - mountain, medina, desert, sea. All curated, with room to roam. This trip is a small group tour, joining a bunch of like minded legends like you.
