subject: Pack Up The Family And Head To Morocco. [print this page] Why not take your family on a special Moroccan tour this summer! Marvel at the sights and sounds of Djemaa el Fna in Marrakech, trek on camels into the Sahara and camp out amongst the rolling sand dunes, discover legendary Ait Benhaddou and enjoy some free time for fun at the swimming pool on an incredible Morocco tour.
If you were to kick off your Morocco tour in Marrakech, you could drive over the stunning High Atlas Mountains on the way to Ouarzazate, which used to be the crossing point for African traders heading to the northern cities in Morocco, or travelling up into Europe. Ouarzazate is now the film capital of Morocco and you have the opportunity to visit the famous film studios!
Continuing on your Moroccan tour we visit Todra Gorge, a narrow rose red canyon with towering 300m high walls. Here you have the opportunity to partake in an afternoon session of rock climbing or horse riding. The following day youll be crossing the mighty Sahara Desert on trusty camels as you trek sedately across the vast rolling sand dunes of the Sahara - an experience that is guaranteed to leave a lasting impression on travellers young and old!
No Morocco tour is complete without the Beber camp experience and this is a thrilling experience for the whole family. From the dessert you can travel to the beautiful Dades Gorge this afternoon, a stunning valley which extends from the High Atlas to the Jebel Sarhro range in the south. With beautiful scenery and pots of mint tea you can settle down for the night in Gorge du Dades.
Morning breaks and your Morocco tour takes you to legendary Ait Benhaddou, a fortified city, situated along the former caravan route between the Sahara and Marrakech. This is a UNESCO World Heritage listing, the site had been the setting for many films including Lawrence of Arabia and Gladiator and you have plenty of time to explore the winding alleys and admire the wonderful views.
After finding your way through the Atlas Mountains you arrive into Marrakech where your Moroccan tour can conclude. Before then you would have time for a guided tour around the city, exploring the winding streets and bustling souks, visiting Bahia Palace and the beautiful Koutoubia Mosque - the landmark of Marrakech, which towers over the ancient medina. The afternoon is free for a spot of souvenir shopping in the souks, or a final opportunity to soak up the sunshine by the pool. Your last night on our Moroccan tour is in Marrakech and you can bid farewell the following morning.
