Morocco Tours from Casablanca

Nine tours start in Casablanca, and every one of them reaches the Sahara at Merzouga for a camel ride and a night in a camp. The three shortest, four to six days, go one way: Casablanca, a night in Fes, the dunes, the gorges and a last day that ends in Marrakech. The six longer ones, seven to fourteen days, are circuits that come back to Casablanca and add the imperial cities and, on the longest, Chefchaouen, Tangier and Essaouira. Decide how many days you have, then whether you want to end in Marrakech or back where you landed.

One way

Casablanca to Marrakech via the Sahara: four to six days

Casablanca and the Hassan II mosque on the first morning, then Fes, the Middle Atlas, the Erg Chebbi camp night, Todra and Dades and the kasbah road to Marrakech. The 5-day adds a guided day in Fes, the 6-day adds that and a full day around Merzouga.

Round trips

Morocco circuits from Casablanca: one to two weeks

All six return to Casablanca. The 7-day and 8-day go clockwise, Marrakech first and the desert in the middle, then Fes (and Chefchaouen on the 8-day). The 9-, 10-, 12- and 14-day go the other way, Fes before the desert and Marrakech after it, and stretch to Chefchaouen, Tangier, Rabat, Essaouira or the Ouzoud falls as the days allow.

Plan your route

End in Marrakech or back in Casablanca?

Take a 4-, 5- or 6-day tour if you can fly out of Marrakech: they cover Fes, the Sahara and the kasbah road once, in one direction, and the last day ends in Marrakech. Take a circuit if you fly in and out of Casablanca: the 7- to 14-day tours bring you back to the airport or your Casablanca accommodation on the last day, and the extra days go to a second imperial city, the north or the coast rather than to more desert. If you would rather start closer to the dunes, the Fes desert tours reach Merzouga on their first day.

The Sahara

Where the Sahara falls in each tour

Every tour on this page reaches Merzouga once, with a camel ride into the Erg Chebbi dunes and a night in a camp. On the one-way tours it is the second or third night; on the circuits it sits in the middle, after Fes on the 9-, 10-, 12- and 14-day tours and after Marrakech and the Dades gorges on the 7- and 8-day. The 6-, 8-, 10-, 12- and 14-day itineraries add a full day around Merzouga before moving on; the others leave the dunes the next morning. None of the Casablanca tours is a desert-only trip: if that is what you want, our Morocco desert tours page lists the two- to six-day desert itineraries from every city. Our camel page explains how the ride works and the Sahara guide covers the camp night.
