10 Day Itinerary in Morrocco

It is hard for me to even know where to start writing on my 10-day itinerary in Morocco, as the time spent was simply amazing and cannot be fully encapsulated in words.

I based my travel itinerary very closely to this one from Salt in Our Hair – They are a travelling couple and I really love their travel guides.

3D2N Desert Tour from Fes to Marrakech

There are many tour companies online offering desert tours and many of these range from Fes to Marrakech or Marrakech, or simply Marrakech 3 days round trip etc. However, I would absolutely recommend going with Morocco Excursions, and request for your driver to be Hamid!

He was such good fun to have around - he totally gets our humour and always cracks jokes with us, and he shares with us about his growing up, the Berber culture and the beautiful landscapes as he drives around. Not to mention - he takes such great photos too!

Guide to Marrakech Mastering the medina and chaos

Marrakech was a riot of colors, sights and sounds – You will experience the orchestrated chaos of the traffic and the endless vendors peddling goods in the souks. The main sights are mainly located in the medina, while Palmarie houses all the upscale luxury hotels (great for relaxation) and the new town of Marrakech is located in the Gueliz district, where you will find locals living.

We stayed within the medina at Riad Star for 3.5 days, which gave us enough time to explore all the sights within the medina and also to visit the luxury hotels.

Insider Tips to Fes 2 Days

Fes is traditionally known as the cultural capital and home to the world's first university, University of Al Quaraouiyine, which was established in 859AD. Besides religious studies, the university also focused on math, science and language, and hosts student quarters within its compounds as well.

Besides the university, Fes also has the highest number of medersas (religious schools) in Morocco, hence I would highly recommend you stop by this city! We spent 2 days in Fes, which was enough to see all the sights.
