Discover why Journey Morocco's guests call our bespoke tours "the trip of a lifetime..."
DAY 1: CASABLANCA, THE WHITE CITY
Even though this trip is only a week long, the experiences you have on it will be with you forever. When you arrive at Casablanca's Mohammed V International Airport, the adventure begins. After passing through immigration and customs, you'll find your professional, English-speaking driver waiting to take you to your hotel. You'll come to think of him as a friend who goes out of his way to make your trip enjoyable and show you a side of Morocco that most tourists never see.
As you make your way to the hotel, you'll be soaking it all in.Do you find Casablanca to be a bit more cutting edge than you anticipated? Maybe you've seen the beautiful djellabas that the older men and women of Morocco wear...
The Hassan II Mosque is a must-see if you get there early enough in the day, so have your driver take you there. As its namesake, King Hassan II, planned, this is one of the most recognizable buildings in Casablanca. The mosque's minaret's turquoise and green hues are echoed by the Atlantic Ocean below. You'll need to squint at the top of the world's tallest minaret to make out the intricate designs.
Walking inside, you'll get a close look at the artwork and be taken aback by the ornate arches and intricate design of the building. Inquire with your tour guide about the spiritual allegory hidden within the architecture.
DAY 2: IMPERIAL CITIES MODERN RABAT & ANCIENT FES
Travel today to Fes, a place with deep historical roots in Morocco. As you make your way to the modern city of Rabat, where you'll have lunch, take in the beautiful scenery outside the window.
Rabat, Morocco's capital, is a beachside metropolis on the cutting edge of urban development. Rabat has an authentic atmosphere because it is not a popular tourist destination.
Stop by a small restaurant in Rabat to sample some of Morocco's finest cuisine.it's ideal when you can avoid a tourist trap and eat at a local joint. Visit the palace of Morocco's monarch or stroll a palm tree–lined avenue. We will drive over the impressive Mohammed VI Bridge.
The Medina of Fes was established in the 9th century, and as you enter the city from the outside, you'll first pass through the current New City. Donkeys are the only mode of transportation allowed within the city's medieval walls. It has more than nine thousand narrow streets, some of which are so tight that you'll have to walk side by side. Let your mind wander to a time when you entered a culture that has been unchanged for millennia.
DAY 3: THE ANCIENT GATED IMPERIAL CITY OF FES
After spending the night in a traditional Moroccan riad - some of which are over 800 years old - you will enjoy a delicious breakfast of authentic Moroccan cuisine and hear different options of how to spend your day from your guide. We will have a driving tour and a walking tour. In the bazaar, local artisans are eagarly awaiting your arrival, where you will get to learn how traditional Berber rugs are woven, have a private tour of our famed leather tannery, and try your hand at our beautiful and delicate Moroccan pottery.
Fes is a place with deep historical roots in Morocco. It is the cultural and spiritual heart of our Kingdom. Fes is home to the world's first university.
The Medina of Fes, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and the largest pedestrian-only area in the world, was established in the 9th century, and as you enter the city from the outside, you'll first pass through the current New City.
Donkeys are the only mode of transportation allowed within the city's medieval walls. It has more than nine thousand narrow streets, some so tight that you'll have to walk side by side. Let your mind wander to a time when you entered a culture that has been unchanged for millennia.
DAY 4: FES, THE ROMAN RUINS AT VOLUBILIS & MEDIEVAL MEKNES
Visualize standing where the Roman Empire once stood...
Storks built their nests atop the lofty, bare pillars of Volubilis. The antique mosaics have faded with age, but their original splendor is still apparent in their intricate coloration and design. The antique olive oil press will be demonstrated, and your guide will explain the significance of the various structures that once stood on this site, which dates back two thousand years.
You'll also have a chance to see Moulay Idris, one of Morocco's holiest cities. This town, which has the name of the Muslim saint who founded Fes, is picturesque, with its white buildings and distinctive green roofs.
The lunch halt will be in Meknes, another royal city. You'll take a tour bus across the city and see the impressive Bab Mansour, erected in the name of Sultan Moulay Ismail. The zellij tiles and intricate etching on this gate are stunning. The old granaries and the Royal Stables of Moulay Ismail will also be visited.
