  1. Day 1
    Marrakech
    Salaam Alaikum! Welcome to Morocco. Your adventure will begin in thriving Marrakech with a welcome meeting at 5 pm. After, join your leader and fellow travellers to visit Djemaa el-Fnaa in the Old City as the sun descends for a local street food experience. This is the largest public square in the world and it almost has the atmosphere of a medieval fair – so the kids are sure to love it! Street performers vie to entertain and the delicious smells waft by as food stalls cook up their local delicacies – you’ll no doubt want to try as much as you can for dinner tonight! You'll also be able to buy some snacks for the train journey tomorrow.
    Meals:   Dinner
  2. Day 2
    Fes
    Today, travel by train to the city of Fes. When you arrive, check in to your hotel and enjoy some time to relax. This is the spiritual and cultural heart of Morocco – vibrant, noisy and a feast for the senses. With a huge, well-preserved Old Town that's the mother of all medinas, there’s plenty to see and do in Fes! The afternoon is free to explore the winding streets and hustle and bustle of this amazing city – there'll be something to surprise and entertain the family at every corner, just ask your local leader for tips.
    Meals:   Breakfast
  3. Day 3
    Fes
    After breakfast, take a guided walking tour of the Old City, known locally as Fes el Bali. Step back into the Middle Ages as you explore the medina's labyrinth, which buzzes with craftspeople, markets, tanneries and mosques. After passing donkeys navigating the car-free streets, you’ll stop to watch some traditional potters at work in a ceramics studio. Then, head to a pottery workshop to make something of your own! This activity supports the local artisans and a skilled craftsman will teach you all about their craft.

    Midelt
    Today it's time to leave the city behind and head for the beauty of the Middle Atlas Mountains. Take a private transfer through fertile valleys, pine forests and barren, rocky landscapes. Tell the kids to look out for wandering nomadic shepherds as they tend to their flocks – you might even catch a glimpse of barbary apes – North Africa's only monkey. Midelt is a market town originally built as a base for mining and surrounded by farms and orchards. Enjoy a guided walk through one of the nearby villages for spectacular scenery and an insight into the local farming life before settling down for a peaceful evening of rest.
    Meals:   Breakfast
  5. Day 5
    Sahara Desert

As you pass through Erfoud and Rissani, you'll see the scenery change between barren mountainsides and fertile valleys until you reach the small Saharan village of Merzouga. When you arrive, leave your baggage, pack a daypack and saddle up for a 1-hour camel ride into the desert at the Erg Chebbi dunes – huge windswept dunes just 20 km from the Algerian border. Ride your camels into the edge of the Sahara at sunset – this is a core memory waiting to happen! The dunes are truly breathtaking as the evening light sets off the deep colours of the desert. Tonight, you’ll camp out in traditional style under the North African stars.
    Meals:   Breakfast   Dinner
  6. Day 6
    Ait Benhaddou
    If you’re game, rise and shine early enough to catch sunrise over the dunes. This morning, take a scenic drive past ancient kasbahs, former military outposts, mountains, valleys and fields that will take you to Ait Benhaddou. For lunch, stop at Ouarzazate. Does it look familiar? This location is used for many Hollywood blockbusters – be sure to ask your local leader about what's been filmed here! Arrive in Ait Benhaddou – once a crucial stop for caravans as they carried salt across the Sahara. – once a crucial stop for caravans as they carried salt across the Sahara.

    Meals:   Breakfast   Dinner
  7. Day 7
    Ait Benhaddou
    Today is all about enjoying the moment and taking in the incredible scenery. This morning, you’ll join a local artist to create your very own masterpiece using tea leaves and other natural materials – another activity for the kids to get creative! Then, the rest of the day is yours to enjoy however you choose. The hotel pool is a favourite hang out for kids and a perfect way to relax. Your leader will also be able to provide suggestions for other activities if you're feeling a little more adventurous. For dinner, enjoy some classic Moroccan tajine and couscous with your group.
    Meals:   Breakfast   Dinner
  8. Day 8
    Imlil
    Make your way to the High Atlas Mountains, passing Tizi n'Tichka Pass (2260 m above sea level) and Toubkal National Park. Along the way, snow-capped mountains and valleys in full flower will fly by your window – don’t worry, you’ll make a couple of stops for photos! When you arrive in the town of Aroumd, the kids can climb aboard donkeys and make their way to Imlil (the adults will be on foot and the walk takes about an hour). Witness traditional mountain village life far from the reach of the modern world and arrive in the remote village of Imlil – sitting on a rocky outcrop, this town has amazing views across the High Atlas Mountains and a unique opportunity to experience traditional Amazigh culture. You’ll spend the night in a family-run mountain home (or gite). Surrounded by the smell of woodstoves and bread, you’ll meet the host family and enjoy some traditional Amazigh hospitality and homecooked food as you swap stories and learn about their lives in the village.
    Meals:   Breakfast   Dinner
  9. Day 9
    Essaouira
    Bread has always been an important element in Amazigh cuisine and today, you’ll have the opportunity to watch a bread-making demonstration for breakfast. Watch how it’s prepared and cooked by your hosts and then, if the kids feel up to it, maybe take an early morning walk around the village of Imlil. Head west towards the Atlantic Coast and the old fishing town of Essaouira – a city where the medina brushes up against the Atlantic Ocean. Sandstone walkways contrast with whitewashed houses, bright blue sky and the sand of the surrounding beaches and dunes. With your free afternoon, you might want to head to the waterfront and see the day’s catch. Tonight, maybe catch up with your group to share a seafood dinner.
    Meals:   Breakfast
  10. Day 10
    Essaouira
    After breakfast, join your leader on a walk around the town. The remainder of today is free for you to explore Essaouira as a family. Everything in the small centre is within walking distance, and the coast is perfect for a beach day. Why not wander the harbour and its adjacent fish markets, where you can watch the daily auction. A fresh-cooked plate of the day's catch is highly recommended. This town is also becoming renowned for its burled Thuya wood, delicately formed and inlaid in tiny shops. The scent of the oils used to polish the richly coloured wood permeates the air and makes walking through the streets incredibly rich for the senses!
    Meals:   Breakfast
  11. Day 11
    Marrakech
    Leaving Essaouira behind, make the journey back to Marrakech. When you arrive this afternoon, head out for a tour of the bustling medina, trying some local Moroccan sweets and fresh orange juice on the way. Then, you’ll have free time to explore the sights or purchase any souvenirs. As is usual in a souq, individual trades and crafts are concentrated in one street or area, so the shoemakers are all next to each other, as are the jewellers, potters and weavers. This is the best place in Morocco to sharpen your bargaining skills, and you’re sure to be tempted by some of the extraordinary merchandise on display – maybe a pair of traditional Moroccan slippers? Meet up with your group for a final evening and toast to a wonderful adventure discovering the best of Morocco.
    Meals:   Breakfast
  12. Day 12
    Marrakech
    Your family adventure comes to an end this morning. There are no activities today you’re free to depart the accommodation at any time. If you’d like to extend your family holiday, just get in touch with your booking agent head of time.

Questions & Answers
  Ask A Question

Question: if we were to fly from Washington DC direct to Casablanca, how would we get from Marrakech back to Casablanca to fly back? Train and plan for 1 extra night in Casablanca?

Morocco utilizes Grand Taxis between Marrakech and Casablanca. The travel time is roughly 3 hours. We cannot book Grand Taxis but your tour director should be able to assist you in regards to how to book one at the end of your tour. You can also take the train, which is cheaper and less time, but you will be combining both taxi and train at that point which may be inconvenient.

Question: How many suitcases can I take with me on my trip?

Each person is allowed one "check-in," and one "carry-on." Remember to take all valuables with you as "carry-on", because electronic equipment, cameras, laptops, jewelry, business documents and money are not covered by the airlines' liability, so always carry them aboard with you.

Question: Is Airfare Included in the Price?

Airfare from your point of origin to and from the trip is not included in the land price.

Guide on this trip was competent and professional but not as personable as other trip guides we have had. Seemed indifferent and lacked enthusiasm for his job and even his country.
