Highlights
Casablanca - El Jadida - Essaouira
El Jadida - From the modern airport, it’s a 2-hour drive south to your first stop, El Jadida. The sleepy walled citadel built during the age of exploration is your introduction to Morocco. Built by the Portuguese on the trade route to India the old city remains relatively untouched. Stroll the ramparts overlooking the Atlantic, walk the streets, and breath in the history that surrounds you as you make your way to the underground cistern. As you descend the stairs under the walled city, you’ll enter another world hidden for centuries and now made famous in several movies (admission included).
Essaouira - Then it’s a 4-hour drive further south to Essaouira. On arrival, you check into the Riad Mimouna deep in the heart of the old city just as the denizens promenade along its narrow streets and alleys. Stop into a restaurant, or dine at any of the food vendors whose cooking smoke fills with air with a feast for the senses. When you’ve had your fill, head back to the riad and the rest of the evening is yours to enjoy.

Unforgettable tour of Marrakech, Rabat, and Fes, plus a night in the Agafay Desert. - I went to Morocco with 3 friends and we worked with Sahara Trek to plan the trip. One of our party already reviewed the trip and I agree wholeheartedly with her review! In addition I want to give a shout out to our guide Aziz in Marrakesh. He was very knowledgeable, professional, friendly and accommodating. I won't soon forget his bright smile and his strong encouragement to try all things Moroccan (i.e., the food in the square, ride a camel in the desert and get a hammam)! Our guide in Rabat was also very good - we were only able to spend a few hours with him given our schedule; it was Eid, very busy and we learned a lot. All this to say (again) what a great trip Luiza at Sahara Trek helped us plan. The trip was unforgettable, made especially so by the people involved: Luiza, our amazing driver Fouad, and our three guides (including Mohammed in Fes)! Thanks to all!

Great Morocco experience - We used SaharaTrek and Luiza to help us arrange our recent trip in Morocco. We had a general plan for our tour of Morocco and Luiza was very helpful in advising re specifics and in getting us riad/hotel and activity reservations. Once there our driver (and interpreter) Fouad provided much useful information and made suggestions for things to see that we had not thought of; he looked for things that we asked for. Local guides were arranged for us, including Mohammed in Fez and Aziz in Marrakech. Our experience with Luiza, Fouad and Sahara Trek was very positive and we would not hesitate to engage them again; they made arrangements which worked and were very responsive.

SaharaTrek is a wonderful tour company! - I went with 2 friends on the Grand Tour of Morocco & it was outstanding! SaharaTrek tailored the trip to what we wanted to do and where we wanted to go. They took care of all the details, transportation & lodging in Morocco. We were able to relax and enjoy adventure from Casablanca, Fez, Marrakech, Tangier, Chefchaouen, the Sahara and every stop in between! Our driver Fouad was a world class guide who made wonderful suggestions to enhance our experience. I recommend SaharaTrek to everyone who wants to experience an unforgettable tour of this country!

2023 Private Grand Tour of Morocco Trip - Our group had incredible experience and wonderful time in Morocco.
The entire trip was absolutely better than we expected.
We loved all the Riad with nice view and good hospitality manners at each of the towns except "Auberge La Petit Gorge" riad.
The driver Abdel Kader who is young guy with very friendly. I almost felt like be with my own bother.
Marrakech guide, "Aziz" he explained to us surrounding background of Marrakech with plenty of historic information in his enthusiasm. I strongly recommend him as local guide there.
The guide in Fez "Mohammed" he was a such a intelligent man with high class manner. He spent extra hour to guided us cover all event etc... We 're so lucky to be had these two gentlemen as a our tour guides.
So I definitely come back to Morocco some day and strongly recommend "Sahara Trek" to my friends who are planning to Viste to Morocco.

Fast, Friendly and More Then We Hoped For - Don't get much time away from work, so had to make every day count. Took SaharaTrek's 7 day Ancient Empires. They had another tour that included a camel ride, but we did that already in Egypt and that was plenty. Other companies offered similar tours, but they have time-fillers like tea in a tent, etc, and I don't have time for that. In 7 days, we saw everything in Morocco we wanted to. The imperial cities, roman ruins, and the blue city. Loved the mix of guided tours and self-exploration. Liked that they only included breakfast and dinner because we love to go out and find our own food options. A real highlight was the Ghost Tour of Fez. No one else did that and it really made the tour for us.

Would do it again! - The mandatory family vacation went better than ever this year when we visited Morocco with SaharaTrek. We took their short “Essential Morocco” tour, and it was perfect. No wasted time on uninteresting and vaguely authentic tea ceremonies with pseudo-nomads and other bits of tired schtick. This was fast-moving, hit the highlights, just the right amount of time, and never got boring kinda tour. Hands-on, always moving, always seeing. Loved the mix of guided and self-guided time and how we could be flexible enough with the schedule so we were moving faster with things that interested us less, and spending more time on things we were more interested in. Loved the ghost tour of Fez!

Amazing tour! - We had an awesome time on the private tour of Morocco with SaharaTrek. Everything was super organized and ran smoothly. We saw a ton of sites and the tour was catered to us. The ghost tour was a special treat we did not see offered anywhere else. The guides were professional and knowledgeable. Before I contacted SAharaTrek I tried putting it together myself. It was way too hard, confusing and kinda scary. With just Moroccan companies you don't know who you are dealing with. But SaharaTrek made it all easy and are a trusted American company. Would definitely recommend.
