Why you'll love this trip
-
Marvel at the size of the Mosque of Hassan II, which dominates the Casablanca skyline – this massive edifice is the largest in Africa and second only in the world to the great mosque at Mecca.
-
Uncover one of the most remote parts of the Roman Empire, and the most impressive Roman ruins in Morocco, at the World Heritage site of Volubilis.
-
Enjoy the magical atmosphere and hospitality during your feature stay in a traditional riad, a Moroccan house with an interior garden, fountain and beautifully decorated rooms.
-
Dive into Fes’ medina and be surrounded by the spiritual and cultural heart of Morocco in arguably the world's most fascinating and confounding old city.
-
Witness the evening transformation of Djemaa el-Fna in Marrakech, where food, music and entertainment come together to make one of the world’s greatest public squares.
Is this trip right for you?
-
This trip includes a full-day tour around the Medina of Fes on Day 4. You will be on your feet at least five to six hours, this is one of the highlights of Morocco and well worth any weariness at the end of the long day.
-
The weather in Morocco can be extreme. Summer temperatures can be uncomfortably hot, especially for those who aren't accustomed to the heat, so please consider carefully what time of year you travel. If you do travel in the warmer months, pack layers to cover you from the sun, bring the necessary sun protection and drink plenty of water.
-
Although you shouldn’t expect any aggressive selling techniques in Morocco, please be aware that you may be approached by shop owners and street vendors offering their goods to you on regular occasions.
-
We've sourced our accommodation very carefully and picked the best possible hotels in line with the Peregrine style of travel, but keep in mind the service and accommodation in Morocco may differ to standards you're accustomed to at home.
-
In 2021, Ramadan will take place from 12 April to 11 May. Travelling during this holy month can be a rewarding cultural experience. However, some regular services may not be available during the daytime, such as restaurants or coffee bars, and occasionally travel can be disrupted by events. Your leader will adjust the itinerary accordingly, but please consider your travel arrangements carefully before booking travel for this period.

Special Information
Today’s experience will include shopping in carefully selected places. As the receipt of commissions or kickbacks in exchange for recommending particular shops, services or activities is ingrained in the culture of the Moroccan tourism industry, Peregrine has established a centralised system of receiving and distributing payments from these recommended suppliers. For more information, please refer to the Important Notes section or talk to your tour leader on the ground.In addition, please note that if you are not interested in the shopping experience, you need to advise your tour leader about it beforehand. It is possible for you to have a free time during the tour, however it will be impossible to set a meeting point inside the medina due to the fact it is so complicated to navigate. If you decide to leave the group, you will only be able to meet back with them in your hotel in Fes.
