Go on a journey of 14 days and 10 nights through Morocco, between imperial cities, Atlas mountains and grand desert landscapes. This complete tour will make you discover all the richness of Moroccan heritage, from Casablanca to the heart of the Sahara.

You will explore the historical treasures of Rabat, Meknes, Fez and Marrakech, among medinas classified by UNESCO, colorful souks and emblematic monuments. Then, aboard 4×4 vehicles, you will go on an adventure in southern Morocco: legendary kasbahs, mountain roads, green oasis and spectacular valleys will be there.

One of the highlights of the trip will be a magical night under the starry desert sky, in a traditional Berber tent in Merzouga, after crossing the golden dunes of Erg Chebbi.

This stay combines culture, nature, discovery and local immersion, for an unforgettable journey to the heart of authentic Morocco.
