FAQ – 10 Days Morocco Tour from Casablanca

Who is this 10 days Morocco tour from Casablanca best for?

This itinerary is ideal for first‑time visitors who want to see Morocco’s major highlights in one trip: Casablanca, Chefchaouen, Fes, the Sahara desert, the Atlas Mountains and Marrakech. It suits couples, families and small groups who prefer a mix of culture, scenery and light adventure with comfortable accommodation.

How busy is the daily schedule?

The tour combines some full sightseeing days (Fes, Sahara day, Marrakech) with more relaxed travel days. Driving sections are broken up with scenic stops, viewpoints and short walks so you can enjoy the landscapes without feeling rushed.

What level of fitness do I need?

Most travelers with average fitness can enjoy this tour. Expect walking on uneven medina streets, climbing some stairs in riads and kasbahs, and mounting/dismounting camels in the desert.

What kind of accommodation is included, especially in the desert?

You stay in traditional riads or comfortable hotels in the cities and valleys, plus a night in a luxury desert camp in Merzouga with proper beds, private tent and dinner under the stars. This gives you an authentic Saharan atmosphere with extra comfort and privacy.

Is this a private tour or a group tour?

This itinerary is designed as a private tour with your own English‑speaking driver and vehicle. That means flexible timing each day, personalized photo and rest stops, and the ability to adapt the pace to your preferences.

Can I start or finish in a different city?

Yes, the route can be adjusted for arrivals or departures from Casablanca, Marrakech or sometimes Fes, depending on flights. The 10 days structure stays similar, but the order of cities or overnight stops can change.

What is included and excluded in terms of meals?

Daily breakfasts are included, along with dinners in the Sahara luxury desert camp and in Dades Valley. Lunches and other dinners are free so you can choose where and what to eat, with your driver or guides recommending local restaurants that fit your tastes and budget.

When is the best time to do this 10 days Morocco tour?

Spring (March–May) and autumn (September–November) usually offer the most pleasant temperatures in the desert, mountains and cities. Winter has cooler nights in the Sahara and mountains, while summer can be hot but manageable with air‑conditioned transport and adjusted sightseeing times.

Is the camel trek mandatory?

No, travelers who prefer not to ride camels can usually reach the luxury desert camp by 4×4. You can still enjoy the sunset, dunes and camp atmosphere without doing the full camel ride.

How far in advance should I book this tour?

For popular dates, booking at least 2–3 months ahead is recommended to secure the best riads and desert camp tents. Shorter‑notice requests are often possible outside peak seasons, but flexibility with accommodation is helpful.
