You can see the most of the city’s attractions in two days without sacrificing the leisurely pace that characterizes your one week vacation of Morocco. This is a nation with gorgeous architecture, a quaint culture, and delectable food, despite the abundance of sites.

Arriving by plane in Tangier gives you flexibility when starting your week-long trip of Morocco. Though not much of the once-famous harbor city remains, it serves as an easy starting point for a visit to Chefchaouen, the most delightful destination in all of Morocco to spend a night. Chefchaouen will make a welcome first stop following your flight because it’s small, with a medina you can walk around in less than half an hour. Place Outa el Hammam, the main square, is a great place to relax and people watch while the call from the mosque minarets echoes poignantly.

Near Fes, Volubilis stretches across a lush valley. Morocco’s imperial cities have a vastly different history from this UNESCO World Heritage Site, which is a great beginning point for understanding the history of the entire nation. You’ll drive to Meknes, the most creative city in the nation, following a private walking tour. Here, you may truly take your time to discover the wonders of the city’s traditional architecture, especially the souks and mosques that date back a millennium. Meknes is the most manageable old city for older visitors; you may spend most of the afternoon discovering its marvels, and then head on to adjacent Fes to spend the night deep in the medina.

The biggest walled city in the world is Fez. Since you will be lodging inside the historic medina in the bustling hub of the city’s traditional district, location is crucial for a positive stay. You can explore a labyrinth of souks, tanneries, circular stone wells, and ancient buildings by taking any way from here. It should be noted that you will be in the largest urban car-free area in the world, which means you will have to walk in Fez. It will be effortless to meander among the medina’s hidden gems once you sense the buzz. In addition to not bothering visitors who are accompanied by guides, your local guide will be able to provide you with all the insider information and tales from the city.

See other regional specialties before departing Fez, like the tile and ceramics portions of the souk, which is where the city’s geometric mosaics are made. After that, you will get the opportunity to see Rabat, an enchanting and relatively unexplored capital city where Islamic and Roman influences coexist. As you pass past the opulent Kasbah of the Udayas, you will be greeted by a picturesque panorama of lush gardens and streets painted blue. Rabat is small enough, like Meknes, to explore in about an hour. That way, you have three or four hours to take your time, pause for a mint tea, and hear tales that encapsulate the spirit of the city. After that, you’ll take a quick journey to Casablanca, where you’ll stay the night at a contemporary area of Morocco.

The tallest structure in the nation is undoubtedly the minaret of the Hassan II Mosque, which rises about 700 feet above the waters. You will get a guided tour of the area which is open to non-Muslims before taking a private transfer to Marrakech, the fourth of your imperial towns. Fes has an Arab past, while Marrakech is a Berber city, thus there are a lot of differences between the two cities’ looks and vibes. You will be taken on a tour of Berber heritage by a local guide. You will also be introduced to the art of storytelling, which is another tradition. An engaging storyteller will start your adventure with a chapter that could last well into the night.

You can spend a whole day in Marrakech exploring the souks and architecture. The city’s famous dried dates may be sampled by following your nose to bakeries, where you can also hear the tap-tap-tap of blacksmiths, stroll through the lanes lined with slipper merchants, and smell the spices in the spice market. You’ll have a tour from the area with you in the souks, so plan on spending the whole morning taking it all in. It is your choice which way to turn in the afternoon. As a last taste of imperial tradition to cap off your week in Morocco, you might opt to eat this evening at a traditional rooftop restaurant.

Sadly, you have to depart today after seven days of personalized excursions and deeply engaging Moroccan experiences. You won’t be leaving before spending one last morning exploring the souks or taking in the splendor of the Koutoubia Mosque. We will make arrangements for a late check-out, and in the early afternoon, you will be driven to the airport.
