Tour Overview
For the ideal Morocco holiday adventure exploring both the rural and city life of Morocco, our Morocco Express Marrakech 5-day tour has everything you could need! With this tour, you get to visit the golden Saharan sands and experience the vibrant city life of Marrakesh with the guidance of an English-speaking tour guide that will show you some hidden gems that no visitors should miss. One highlight you can look forward to is the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to spend the night in an authentic Berber camp under the stars in the desert. The tour will end at the humming city of Marrakesh- the perfect place to wind down after your adventurous tour of Morocco. The sights of Marrakech are as magical as you would imagine, and it is the most recommended place to visit first in Morocco. This Morocco holiday provides some time in Marrakech before you get to experience an incredible camel ride into the Sahara. After that, we will visit the lovely city of Essaouira for a day and finally return to Marrakech. A fantastic hotel based tour, this Morocco tour package includes stays at a 3/4* hotel along with a night of exciting camping in a traditional Berber camp under the stars in the desert. Transportation is either by a minivan or 4x4 Land cruiser.
