Morocco is easier to enjoy when you allow some time for local experiences along the way. Here are a few simple tips to help you make the most of your journey.
Take your time in the medinas.
The old medinas of Fes, Chefchaouen, and Marrakech are best explored on foot. Streets can be narrow and busy, so comfortable shoes and a relaxed pace can make sightseeing more enjoyable.
Try local Moroccan food.
Tagine, couscous, harira, and other traditional dishes are part of the country's food culture. If you have dietary restrictions, let us know before the trip so suitable arrangements can be discussed.
Keep some Moroccan dirhams with you.
The Moroccan dirham (MAD) is the local currency. Having some cash can be useful for smaller purchases, cafés, markets, and other personal expenses.
Respect local customs.
When visiting traditional neighborhoods and cultural sites, modest clothing and respectful behavior are appreciated. Ask before photographing local people.
Allow time for the journey.
This route covers several regions of Morocco, from the Atlantic coast and northern Morocco to Fes, the Sahara, and the south. Some travel days are long, but they also allow you to see how the country's landscapes change.
Bring a small bag for the desert.
For the camel ride and overnight desert experience, keep essentials such as water, personal medication, and a desert scarf.
This itinerary connects several very different parts of Morocco, from the Atlantic coast to northern Morocco, Fez, the Middle Atlas, the Sahara, and the south.
Because of the distance covered, some days involve longer road excursions. Travelers should be comfortable spending several hours in the vehicle on certain sections of the route.
The advantage is that you can experience several major Moroccan landscapes and destinations within one journey rather than concentrating on a single region.
