Departing from Casablanca

A 14-day private tour from Casablanca is Morocco without shortcuts. Departing from Mohamed V International Airport or your Casablanca hotel, your circuit covers the entire country: north along the Atlantic coast to Rabat and Asilah, east to Chefchaouen and Fes, south through the Middle Atlas cedars and the Tafilalt Valley to the Sahara at Merzouga, then back via the kasbahs of Ouarzazate and the Draa Valley to Marrakech, with a final detour to Essaouira on the coast.

Casablanca as the departure city adds stops that Marrakech-based itineraries often skip: El Jadida’s Portuguese Manueline cistern (UNESCO) and Asilah’s whitewashed Atlantic medina. The northern sweep also gives more time in Chefchaouen and Fes, rather than rushing them as an add-on to a southern desert circuit. The route is designed so that every night’s accommodation is under four hours from the previous stop.

Your private driver-guide is the same person throughout all 14 days — no handoffs between operators. We arrange all accommodation (riads in the medinas, a private desert camp for the Sahara nights), daily breakfast and dinner, and all transport. The 14-day duration means we can build in genuine rest time: a full afternoon free in Fes, a sunrise morning in the Sahara, and a slow coastal day in Essaouira. Request a quote to begin planning.
