Morocco & the Sahara, 12 day hosted small group land tour, May 13 to 24, 2022

MOROCCO is a mystical and fascinating country distinguished by its Berber, Arabian and European cultural influences. On our 12-day small group hosted tour you will experience the best that Morocco has to offer: from ancient imperial cities, to medinas, kasbahs and souks…from a blue coastline, to verdant fields and wine lands, and dry desert… Morocco has it all.

Visit Rabat, Fez, Marrakech, Casablanca… lose yourself in the twisting, labyrinthine streets of medinas teeming with aromatic spice bazaars, souks, and street food vendors… stroll down wide boulevards lined with palm trees and French colonial architecture… visit stunning palaces, mosques, and gardens… dine at Rick’s Café in Casablanca… ride a camel… spend a night in a Berber tent under a desert sky….These are just some of the experiences that await you on our tour of Morocco….
