Epic Morocco
You’ll be immersed in culture and natural beauty from day one of this 11-day overland journey through Morocco. You’ll start by exploring Casablanca, Chefchaouen and Fes, and you’ll get invaluable cultural insight in the latter, when we go for a home-cooked dinner with a local family. Next up is the Sahara, where we’ll stop by a remote Gnawa village to learn about their spiritual music and dance, before heading to a luxurious desert camp for the evening. We’ll spend a night wine tasting and stargazing, before rising early for a sunrise camel ride. Up in the Atlas Mountains we’ll go on a guided hike and settle down for lunch with a local family before heading to our final destination, Marrakech, where an authentic Moroccan cooking class awaits.
