- Day 11 Marrakesh to Taroudant Goood morning! After breakfast, we’ll hit the road to our next stop – passing by changing landscapes of plains, argan tree forests and rolling hills. We'll roll into Taroudant and waste no time heading out for lunch. Join the crew or do your own thing and tap into the local food scene. Don’t stress if it feels brief — we’ll be back later to explore properly. Welcome to paradise! Today we’ll explore this peaceful oasis at the foot of the Anti-Atlas Mountains. Expect lush palm groves, trickling water, local Berber life, and a historic kasbah overlooking the valley.

Locations Visited: Taroudant MA, Essaouira MA.
- Day 13 Essaouira to Agafay Desert It’s a DIY morning today, with plenty of time to explore the town at your pace. In the afternoon, we’ll make our way to a tranquil hidden gem in the wilderness of Morocco. The endless dusky red panorama in front of you isn’t your typical desert. It’s all rock! After we check into our luxurious tents, you’ll have the chance to cool off with a dip in the pool. Or even better - take a camel ride through the desert. Locations Visited: Essaouira MA, Agafay Desert MA.
- Day 14 Agafay Desert to Marrakesh Noooo, it’s the last day already! Worry not, there’s one more included meal to feast on before we head back to the city where it all began.

- FAQs - Marrakesh: A modular trip means fellow travellers will join and leave at various locations. There’ll be some goodbyes, sure, but there’ll also be plenty of hellos with new like-minded travellers.. Marrakesh: Tipping’s a big deal in Morocco - it's part of the culture and helps support locals (especially those working in tourism). During your trip, you’ll be expected to tip people like hotel staff, local guides, porters, and restaurant crews. To keep it simple (and avoid the awkward maths), your Trip Manager will organise a tipping kitty. On Day 1, they’ll collect $100 USD (or local equivalent in MAD), to cover group service tips along the way. Heads-up: this doesn’t include a tip for your Trip Manager..
