Embark on an unforgettable journey through the heart of Morocco, exploring its ancient imperial cities and experiencing the thrill of a camel trek along the enchanting beaches of Essaouira. This 8-day tour, running from May through the end of October, perfectly combines cultural richness with the adventure of a three-day walk to the majestic Atlantic coast. Your journey begins in the vibrant city of Marrakech, a place where history and culture fuse to create a bustling atmosphere of markets, palaces, and gardens. Upon arrival, be greeted by our friendly team, ensuring your comfort from the very first moment, whether you land in Marrakech, Agadir, or Casablanca.
The tour offers a deep dive into the soul of Morocco, starting with a free day in Marrakech to explore its historical gardens and monuments, including the Bahia Palace and Saadian Tombs, under the guidance of a local, government-approved cultural guide. Experience the craftsmanship of local artisans in the medina, adding a touch of authenticity to your Moroccan adventure. The journey then unfolds towards the Atlantic, visiting Casablanca to marvel at the exterior of the grand Hassan II Mosque before continuing to Rabat, Morocco’s capital, where history greets you at every corner with its archaeological treasures and the picturesque fortress of the Oudayas.
As you travel from Rabat through the coastal cities of El Jadida and Safi, en route to Essaouira, the changing landscapes from bustling city life to serene coastal views signal the next phase of your adventure. Essaouira awaits with its unique charm, a small yet captivating town that promises a peaceful exploration before the exhilarating camel trek along its pristine beaches. The trek is a highlight, offering a blend of natural beauty and cultural immersion, as you walk from the lively Essaouira to the serene dunes of Cape Sim, camping under the stars and experiencing the Moroccan coastline in the most authentic way.
Your adventure continues as you trek from Cape Sim to the stunning Sidi Kaouki beach, renowned for its vastness and beauty, and then to the village of Sidi Mbarek, with its picturesque waterfall and dunes.

The final leg of your tour brings you back to Marrakech, where you have the opportunity to reflect on the unforgettable memories made and the beauty witnessed. The journey concludes with a transfer to the airport, but not before allowing some free time to further explore Marrakech’s gardens and historical monuments if time permits. This tour is not just a trip but a journey through time, nature, and the vibrant culture of Morocco, promising an experience filled with discovery, adventure, and memories that will linger long after you return home.
