7 Days Morocco Itinerary Starting From Casablanca

On the first day, we’ll pick you up early from the airport, the port, or your accommodation in Casablanca. Casablanca is the economic hub and the largest city in Morocco. We will start by visiting the Hassan II Mosque, the largest mosque in Morocco, located on the west coast of the city, perched on a promontory overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. Afterward, enjoy some free time for lunch. In the afternoon, we’ll explore more of the city and take a stroll along the beautiful Corniche of Casablanca. Overnight stay in a hotel.

After breakfast, we drive along the coastline to Rabat, one of Morocco’s imperial cities and its current capital. Upon arrival, we explore the tranquil Kasbah of the Udayas, a fortress adorned with Andalusian gardens and charming blue-and-white alleys. Take a moment to pause and enjoy sweeping vistas of the Atlantic Ocean from its ancient ramparts. Next, we visit the grand Hassan Tower, an unfinished 12th-century minaret that has become a symbol of Rabat.

Stroll among the towering columns and imagine the colossal mosque that was once planned here. Before departing Rabat, we stop by the Mausoleum of Mohammed V, an architectural gem that blends traditional Moroccan and contemporary motifs. After some free time for lunch, we continue our journey north toward Chefchaouen. In the late afternoon, we arrive in Chefchaouen, the “Blue Pearl” of Morocco. Check into your hotel or riad, soak in the laid-back mountain vibe, and enjoy your first glimpse of the town’s famous azure alleyways.

The lively atmosphere will transport you back in time. You’ll quickly notice that this medieval city has remained virtually unchanged, with time seemingly frozen on the clock at La Magana Bou Inania, which has been standing for over 1,200 years. Then return to your hotel or riad.

Afetr breakfast, we travel toward the Sahara Desert. Our first stop will be the city of Ifrane, known as the “Switzerland of Morocco” due to its cooler climate and alpine-style architecture.

Next, we will stop for meal lunch at a restaurant along the route. Afterward, we’ll continue our journey through the Ziz Valley, a lush oasis filled with palm trees.

We’ll take a break at a panoramic viewpoint to enjoy the breathtaking views of the valley. We will reach the desert in the afternoon, where your camels will be waiting to take you across the golden dunes to your luxury or traditional desert camp. Along the way, you’ll have the opportunity to watch the sunset from a high dune. Once you arrive at the campsite, the staff will show you to your private tent, where you can relax and freshen up with a shower. After a delicious dinner, the team will light a bonfire, and you can enjoy the warm atmosphere while the Berbers drum and sing, creating a magical desert evening.

Start your day with an unforgettable experience by climbing the Erg Chebbi sand dunes to watch the sunrise. As the first light touches the golden sands, you’ll experience a moment of complete calm, with the vast desert stretching out before you. Afterward, enjoy a leisurely breakfast and a shower at the camp. You can either ride the camels again or transfer by 4×4 back to the starting point, where you’ll meet your driver.
