12 Days
12-Day Grand Tour - Eastern Arc
Twelve days crossing Morocco's eastern spine. Tangier's Strait winds. Chefchaouen's indigo quiet. Fes where craft hasn't changed in centuries. Through Middle Atlas cedar, across the Ziz Valley's green corridor, into Merzouga's dunes. The return cuts through Todra and Dades, stone carved by water and time. You arrive in Marrakech carrying the breadth of the country in your bones.
Your Route

Day 1
Tangier → Chefchaouen
A drive south from Tangier into the Rif Mountains to reach the blue town of Chefchaouen.

Day 2
Chefchaouen → Fes
South from the blue hills. The Rif releases you into golden plains. The road finds its rhythm—olive groves, small towns, the slow approach. Fes appears in its valley, wrapped in history so thick you can smell it. The maze awaits.

Day 3
Fes → Merzouga
A full-day drive from Fes heading south through the Middle Atlas, passing through Ifrane and the cedar forests around Azrou, before continuing across the pre-Saharan landscapes to reach Merzouga.

Day 4
Merzouga → Dades
West from the dunes. The sand releases you slowly. Todra's gorge appears—walls rising vertical, light slicing through. Then the road opens into the Dades, where rock twists into shapes that shouldn't exist. You sleep in a valley that glows copper at sunset.

Day 5
Dades → Tamnougalt
West through the gorge, then south into the Draa. Ouarzazate passes at the crossroads. The valley opens—palm groves, red earth, kasbahs rising like old guardians. Tamnougalt waits at the end, breathing slow.

Day 6
Tamnougalt → Marrakech
North through the Draa, then the climb. Ouarzazate marks the turn. The Atlas rises—switchbacks, stone villages, air thinning. Ait Benhaddou appears if you stop. Then the pass, the descent, and Marrakech spreading red below.
