Your friendly, supportive Moroccan Tour leader will strive to ensure that you experience the areas visited in an up close and personal manner, in comfortable style and at a relaxed pace.

Special aspects of this adventure are a 3 day walk in the Atlas Mountain foothills and 2 nights in the Sahara Desert; both give the opportunity to immerse yourself in the local culture and experience an authentic lifestyle that has barely changed over the past century.

The walk is graded easy and should be achievable by anyone in good health willing to undertake some easy walking preparation before departing Australia.

Morocco is a wonderful holiday destination, we extend an invitation to anyone with a spirit of adventure to join us on our Moroccan Adventure, you won’t be disappointed.

See you in Morocco in 2014.

Morocco 2014-2015

Throughout the holiday we use only neat, clean, comfortable, well located and secure hotels (Tourist class 2-3 star) most with private facilities. Our hotels are family owned and each has its own unique ‘character’. Except for our first night in Morocco, we have forsaken the more expensive hotels as they tend to isolate us from the local people.

Our arrival hotel in Casablanca is a very stylish 4 star establishment which is a nice introduction to Morocco, especially after a long flight from Australia.

On our 3 day walk in the Atlas Mountains we stay in clean mountain huts (Gites) owned by the local Berber people. The Gite accommodation is multi-share rooms with shared facilities.

The walking pace during the day is very relaxed allowing time to enjoy the views, meet the people and visit their

isolated mountain villages. We can easily reach each days Gite in a leisurely fashion. You will only have to carry a very light day pack as all our gear will be carried on mules. As well, to make our trek even more enjoyable, we will have our own cook so all meals will be tasty and hygienically prepared.

In the Sahara we spend one night in a desert inn (Auberge) and journey by camel into the endless sea of dunes and spend a night camping in Berber tents as their guests or if you wish your bed can be set up under the desert stars.

Many meals are provided as detailed in the itinerary and where meals are not provided we will eat in only nice establishments at very reasonable prices.

All our road journeys are in a comfortable air conditioned mini bus and we employ only safe and courteous drivers.

At no time on this holiday will you feel isolated from the local people.

There’s plenty of opportunities to sample the famous local seafood dishes.

How about a final drink at Sam’s bar.

DAY 20: DEPART CASABLANCA The Morocco Adventure finishes after breakfast. A free hotel/ airport transfer will be provided to those departing on an Emirates flight.

We have two full days to explore this exciting city. Charming, chaotic and charismatic, this is the unique atmosphere of Marrakech. In the evening you’ll want to soak up the atmosphere of the famous Djemaa el Fna square. Heaving with activity, Djemaa el Fna, the central square, has been a meeting point for centuries. Your senses will go wild over the sights, sounds and smells. Packed full of traders, Berber musicians, acrobats, snake charmers, witch doctors, wise men and tooth pullers, the squares hypnotic charm will soon rub off on you. There is so much to see and do, we will stay the next day to continue our exploration.
