About this tour

The Imperial Cities and a Taste of the Desert, Without the Long Drive South

This Morocco imperial cities tour loops from Casablanca first to the Strait of Gibraltar at Tangier, then south through the spiritual heart of Fes and the royal capital of Rabat.

Rather than the long haul to the Sahara, the route dips into the Agafay Desert just outside Marrakech for a genuine desert-camp night without adding days to the trip.

The journey closes with time in Marrakech’s medina before returning to Casablanca for departure — a complete imperial-cities itinerary in ten days.

As a Moroccan local operator, we hand-pick every riad, camp and guide on this route. Every itinerary can be tailored to your dates, pace and interests.

Frequently Asked Questions

This is a round trip — you’ll arrive at and depart from Casablanca Mohammed V International Airport.

Yes. This itinerary can be adjusted to your dates, pace and interests — extra nights in any city, a different accommodation tier, or changes to the route are all possible. Tell us what you’d like and we’ll tailor it.

A 30% deposit confirms your booking — pay it directly via our “Down Payment” option, or choose “Book Now, Pay Later” and we’ll send payment details by PayPal, Wise, or bank transfer. The remaining balance is settled in Morocco.

The remaining balance can be paid in Morocco — cash (no fee), Wise (no fee), PayPal (5% fee), or credit card (3% fee, in MAD). Your deposit isn’t locked to this one trip: it’s valid toward any private tour we run, in Morocco or elsewhere we operate (Egypt, Jordan, Tanzania, Tunisia, Mauritania, and more), and it can be transferred to a family member, friend, or anyone you refer to us.

If we need to cancel (extremely rare, emergency only), your deposit is refunded in full. If you need to cancel: the deposit is non-refundable, but canceling 30+ days before departure lets you apply it to a postponed trip within the next two years, at no extra cost. Canceling within 0–29 days of departure may carry a hotel cancellation charge, which varies by property — we only pass on what we’re actually charged, nothing more.

Travel insurance is not included in this tour and is not provided by us, but we strongly recommend arranging it before you travel.

Visa requirements depend on your nationality — many visitors (including from the EU, UK, US and Canada) can enter visa-free for stays up to 90 days, but you should confirm your own country’s requirement before booking flights.
