Before you book
Can fourteen days cover all Morocco?
No. It supports a strong cross-section, but the far north, deep south and every coastal region cannot all receive proper time.
Where should we arrive and depart?
Open-jaw flights can reduce backtracking; the recommendation depends on your confirmed route and available connections.
Can we add Chefchaouen?
Yes only if northern Morocco fits the route without sacrificing the pace of the Sahara or coast.
Can you change this route for us?
Yes. Tell us your dates, group size and what you would like to change. We check the distances and stays before sending a route and price.
How do I book or cancel?
Send an enquiry first. We confirm the route, included services, total price and deposit before you book. Read our booking and cancellation terms for the conditions that apply to your trip. Booking and cancellation terms.
