Day 3 Fes
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Fes

Today, we take the guided tour of Fes. Its medina, home to 400,000 inhabitants, with only donkeys and bikes as a means of transportation, is a heady mix of aromas, sights, and sounds. There are plenty of mosques and palaces to visit but be aware that only Muslims can enter Mosques in Morocco. After exploring the dye-pits, tanneries, pharmacy, pottery and restaurants, we return to our hotel to freshen up for tonight, where we have the chance of an optional traditional meal in the city with live Moroccan entertainment including traditional music, belly dancing and magicians. Or have a free evening and eat at a restaurant of your choice.

Day 4 Sahara Desert

Excitement is in the air as we head towards the mighty Saharan Dunes. En-route we stop off for an optional lunch and in the summer, we may even have time for a relaxing swim. It is then time to head towards the great desert dunes of Erg Chebbi in Merzouga where we transfer to our camels and trek into the vast Sahara Desert in time for sunset. We then return to our authentic Berber Camp on the edge of the desert to spend the night enjoying local food, music, and an amazing night out under the Saharan stars.

Overnight Berber camp (Breakfast & Dinner included).
Day 5 Todra Gorge
12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Todra Gorge

After sunrise and breakfast, opt to explore the dunes further or book a desert excursion before we move on to Todra Gorge. This 1000ft gorge is hemmed in on all sides by vertical limestone cliffs and is also called Morocco’s Grand Canyon. The afternoon can be spent exploring the Gorge, walking through the Palmerie and watching the locals cooling off in the river. The charm of Todra lies in its changing colours as the sun slowly moves from east to west.

On a hill along the Ouarzazate River we find Ait Benhaddou, a UNESCO World Heritage site, which boasts great examples of Kasbahs, some of which remain inhabited.
