Detailed itinerary

7 days of adventure, organized step by step

Harta itinerariului
At 12:00 PM, we meet our group leader at Otopeni Airport and begin our Moroccan adventure. We fly directly from Bucharest to fascinating Marrakech, and after landing around 6:45 PM, we head to our riad, a traditional accommodation full of local charm. After check-in and some time to rest, the evening is at our leisure. Those eager can join the group leaders for a short walking tour through the medina, where we'll feel the vibrant pulse of the city for the first time: narrow streets, colorful lanterns, spicy aromas, and the unmistakable atmosphere of Marrakech.
AccommodationRiad Namla 4*

The day is dedicated to exploring Marrakech, at a balanced pace. We discover palaces, historic schools, and lively souks, alternating the city's hustle with moments of tranquility in hidden gardens.

In the afternoon, we continue with authentic experiences, and the evening is free for relaxation or an optional stroll through the famous Jemaa el-Fna square.

We leave Marrakech and cross the Atlas Mountains on one of Morocco's most spectacular routes. Throughout the day, we discover mud ksars, green oases, and dramatic landscapes, marking the transition from the imperial cities to the arid south of the country.

The day ends in Dades Valley, at a more relaxed pace, preparing us for our entry into the Sahara the next day.

We leave Dades Valley and gradually head towards the desert, on a day designed to conserve energy for the Sahara experiences. We make a short stop in a spectacular natural setting, then continue our journey to Merzouga, where we arrive in time to begin exploring the dunes. The day marks a clear transition from mountainous landscapes to the silence and vastness of the desert.

At the end of our desert experiences, we head to the luxury camp in Erg Chebbi. After settling in, we enjoy a traditional tea ceremony, followed by a show with Berber music and fire, under the Sahara sky. An authentic evening, perfectly concluding our first day in the desert.

AccommodationTawada Luxury Desert Camp 5*
Meals includedBreakfast, Dinner

The day starts early for those who wish to experience one of the most special moments of the desert experience. Optionally, we ride camels and head to a dune near the camp, where we admire the sunrise over the Sahara - a moment of absolute tranquility, as the desert comes alive in warm colors. We then return to camp for breakfast, after which we head to Errachidia. The journey takes about two hours and takes us to the airport, from where we take a domestic flight to Marrakech. We choose this option to avoid a long and tiring drive, gaining time and comfort.

Upon arrival in Marrakech, the evening is at our leisure. We have unsupervised free time for relaxation, strolls through the city, or to enjoy the vibrant atmosphere of the medina at our own pace.

Today we leave the city's hustle for a day trip to one of Morocco's most spectacular natural areas. We head to Ouzoud Falls, an impressive series of cascades, surrounded by green vegetation and panoramic paths. We have time for leisurely walks in the area, to admire the waterfall from several viewpoints and for relaxing breaks amidst nature. The day's pace is calm, designed as a pleasant contrast after the intense desert experiences and previous days.

In the evening, we return to Marrakech, with free time at our disposal.

Frequently asked questions

During March-April, the weather in Morocco is ideal for a group tour. In Marrakech, daytime temperatures are usually between 22–26 °C, with cooler evenings around 10–15 °C. In the Atlas Mountains and mountainous areas, temperatures are lower, especially in the morning and evening. In the Sahara desert (Merzouga area), days can reach 25–28 °C, and nights are cool, usually between 10–15 °C. The weather is generally dry, with rare precipitation, which makes this period very suitable for exploration.
The tour is organized for a small group, with dedicated transport and a Romanian onTour guide throughout the trip. The program is well-structured, yet flexible enough to offer comfort and downtime.
