Private Morocco tours from Casablanca that combine the imperial cities with a camel trek in the Merzouga desert. From 4 to 15 days, starting at Casablanca airport or your hotel and ending in Marrakech or back in Casablanca.
Morocco Tours from Casablanca: How It Works
Casablanca is Morocco’s main international gateway, which makes it a natural start for a private Morocco desert tour. Most routes head north-east through Rabat, Meknes and the Roman ruins of Volubilis to Fes, then cross the Middle Atlas to the Merzouga dunes for a sunset camel ride.
From the Sahara, the road continues through the Todra and Dades gorges and over the High Atlas to Marrakech. Choose a 4-day Casablanca to Marrakech tour, a one-week trip, or a longer journey that returns to Casablanca.
