→ 7 Days Morocco Tour from Marrakech: Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the tour start in Marrakech and end in Casablanca?
Because it is one way, you never drive back to your starting point. As a result, you see four imperial cities in seven days.
Are the city tours guided?
Yes. Local guides lead your visits of the Marrakech and Fes medinas, which can be confusing on your own.
Is there a lot of walking?
Yes, a moderate amount. The medinas of Fes and Marrakech are car-free, and the path at Ouzoud has steps. So, bring comfortable shoes.
Does this tour include the Sahara desert?
No. This is a culture tour. If you want the dunes too, choose a Morocco desert tour or our 10-day itinerary.
Can we visit inside the Hassan II Mosque?
Yes. The mosque welcomes non-Muslim visitors on guided tours at set times, outside prayer hours.
Can we end the tour in Marrakech?
Yes. Since the tour is private, we can adapt the route and finish in Marrakech, Fes or Tangier.
→ Customize Your 7 Days Morocco Tour from Marrakech
