Marrakech, South & Atlantic Coast
8 Days / 7 Nights — Departs Marrakech
Why choose between the desert and the sea when you can have both? This journey begins among the golden dunes of the Sahara and ends on the wild Atlantic coast, in the whitewashed port town of Essaouira. In between: kasbahs, canyons, and the vast quiet of the Sahara. Mornings in the sand, evenings by the ocean — it's an itinerary that captures both faces of Morocco in a single trip.
