Explore the vibrant Marrakech Medina, a UNESCO world heritage site bursting with colours, sounds, smells, and sights. Shop at the souks, visit the Koutoubia mosque, and enjoy a cup of fragrant mint tea at a traditional café.
Take a scenic drive to the Atlas Mountains and discover Berber villages, visit traditional argan oil cooperatives, hike to waterfalls, and enjoy a delicious tagine lunch with stunning views.
Explore the fortified clay city of Ait Benhaddou, a shooting location for Game of Thrones and Gladiator, and visit the movie studios of Ouarzazate, known as the Hollywood of Africa.
Discover the blue-washed beauty of Chefchaouen, a charming town nestled in the Rif Mountains. Stroll through the narrow alleyways, admire the blue doors and walls, and shop for local handicrafts.
Consider hiring a private driver to navigate the country's winding roads and avoid getting lost. Alternatively, group tours are a budget-friendly option. Taxis and public transport are also available but not recommended for long distances.
Travel costs: £200-£300 depending on the mode of transport.
If you have more time, add a visit to the coastal city of Essaouira or the Sahara Desert. If you have less time, skip Ouarzazate and spend an extra day in Marrakech or Chefchaouen.
