The Complete 2-Week Grand Morocco Adventure from Marrakech!

★★★★★

Łukasz Szymański

We booked this Marrakech itinerary 14 days with Morocco Discover Excursions for our ultimate holiday, and it covered every highlight seamlessly. Starting in Marrakech, we crossed the High Atlas Mountains to Ait Benhaddou, Ouarzazate, and the dramatic Todra Gorges before reaching the golden dunes of Merzouga. Sleeping in a luxury Sahara camp, camel trekking, and quad biking were unforgettable! We then traveled north through the Ziz Valley to historic Fes, blue-painted Chefchaouen, Tangier, and coastal Rabat, before returning past Casablanca to Marrakech. Our private vehicle was super comfortable, and our driver Mohamed felt like family. Pure 5-star perfection!

Unforgettable 14-Day Family Circuit Across the Kingdom

Magdalena & Norbert

If you have two weeks for your vacation, this Marrakech itinerary 14 days, organized by Morocco Discover Excursions, is the absolute best choice for families. The pacing allowed us to see vibrant Marrakech, ancient kasbahs, deep desert dunes, historic medinas in Fes, and peaceful coastal spots without feeling rushed. The kids loved feeding monkeys in the cedar forests of Azrou, sandboarding in Erg Chebbi, and exploring the blue streets of Chefchaouen. Every riad was charming and authentic, and the traditional Moroccan food was delicious every day. The entire trip was safe, smooth, and magnificently planned!

Moving from the bustling Red City to Saharan sand dunes, ancient Roman ruins in Volubilis, imperial Fes, northern Chefchaouen, and Atlantic Ocean views made every day feel like a new world.
