Itinerary

Today you will arrive in the legendary city of Casablanca. We'll meet you at the airport and transfer you to your hotel. Here, during a Welcome Reception, you'll meet your fellow guests and Tour Director. Stay: Mövenpick Casablanca (or similar)

This morning, set off on a city tour of Casablanca. Your first stop is Hassan II Mosque, the largest mosque in Africa with its impressive 210-metre-tall minaret. A visit to the League of Arab States Park and the Mohammed V Square rounds off your city tour. Continue on to the nearby city of Rabat, Morocco's capital, and after some free time to enjoy lunch along the river front, set off on an exploration of the city. Hop back onto your coach for the drive to Meknes. Here, discover the iconic gateway of Bab Mansour. You'll also enjoy a visit to the Hari Souani Granary before continuing to Fez. Stay Two Nights: Fez, Barceló Fès (or similar) (B/D)

Fez was founded more than 1,200 years ago and is one of the oldest continuously inhabited medieval settlements in the world. Fez is divided into distinct parts: the typical old walled city (Fez-el-Bali) and a French-built new town area (Ville Nouvelle). The old town enjoys World Heritage status and has an entirely car-free centre. Walking through this area you'll pass spice markets, food stalls, tanneries, guilds and souks. During your time in Fez, you'll visit the University of al-Qarawiyyin, the oldest existing, continually operating university in the world. Afterwards, stop in at Bou Inania, an educational institute which also doubles as a mosque. (B)

Insider Experience: Indulge your taste buds with a tasting of Moroccan coffee and sweets.

Today, you'll head through the desert towards Marrakesh. En route, stop at the Swiss-style village of Ifrane. With its incredible chalet-houses with red pointed roofs, carefully manicured parks and alpine-resort atmosphere, Ifrane is now known as the Switzerland of Morocco. Enjoy some time here to take some photos and stretch your legs. After time back on the road, stop at Beni Mellal, a town nestled at the foothills of the Middle Atlas Mountains. Here, enjoy lunch at a local restaurant. Pass by an array of Berber villages as you close in on Marrakesh, an oasis city boasting a heady mix of ancient ramparts, secret tombs, lush gardens and colourful souks. Stay Three Nights: Marrakesh, Radisson Blu (or similar) (B/L)

This morning, we will set off on a tour of two of Marrakesh's most iconic attractions – the Bahia Palace and Majorelle Gardens. It is clear why Bahia Palace is translated from Arabic to mean 'brilliance'. The palace and gardens showcase the finest examples of Moroccan and Islamic architecture. Admire stained-glass windows, zellij mosaics, painted wooden ceilings and marble-paved courtyards. Moving on to the Majorelle Gardens, wander through gardens which took French artist Jacques Majorelle over 40 years to create. The afternoon is yours, so enjoy time on your own terms. Perhaps explore the medina, or sit back with a refreshing cup of mint tea and watch the local life. (B)

Today is free to relax at your own leisure, exploring the delights of Marrakesh as you wish. You might like to join a Moroccan cooking class, or enjoy a guided discovery of the riads hidden away in Marrakesh's medina. This evening, we will celebrate our Moroccan adventure with a Farewell Dinner, accompanied by traditional belly dancers and live music. (B/D)

After breakfast, you'll be transferred to the airport for your onward flight. (B)
