Experience the best of Morocco together on this carefully designed 8-day honeymoon itinerary, featuring Casablanca, Fes, and Marrakech with private guided tours, hand-picked riads, and memorable experiences
The excitement of your personalized tour begins when you first start planning your trip, even before you land in the Casablanca airport. It will only start to feel real when you walk out of the airport and see your English speaking driver, you soon-to-be friend, smiling at you. The drivers are part of what makes Inner Morocco different…they are always said to be one of the best parts of the experience because they help you see the real Morocco.
Imagine yourself walking out of the airport and seeing palm trees and Moroccan flags…
Your driver will take you to your hotel. As soon as you feel settled, if time permits, your driver will take you to Hassan II, one of the largest mosques in the world. Loaded with religious and historical significance, it will awe you with its sheer size and incredible architecture.
You’ll be able to see the painstakingly designed interior during your guided tour. The mosque is right on the water, and it has glass flooring in one section so visitors and worshippers can see the beauty of the Atlantic below. Smell the salty ocean air as you step out again to take a picture of the exquisite minaret.
Imagine waking up in Morocco knowing that you will be experiencing the itinerary you’ve been tailoring for weeks…
After a relaxing morning enjoying a leisurely breakfast for two, you will leave towards Fes. On route, you will stop at Rabat, the capital city and residence of the King, for a brief time to see the beautiful coastal city, including the old medina, Kasbah of the Oudayas, the Oudaya Gate, and the Hassan Tower. You will arrive in Fes in the afternoon and check into your beautiful riad. Fes is the spiritual capital of Morocco and often one of the highlights of a visit to Morocco! Dinner will be in the riad.
You’ll be glad of your professional guide as you make your way through these twisting streets. Imagine passing open air markets piled with colorful fruits and vegetables. A few shops down, a woman is picking up chicken from the butcher to bring home for tagine… You’ll see cats sitting lazily by carts selling bright mint leaves-probably tempting you to stop for a glass of sweet mint tea. You’ll walk by a spice shop, or “Berber pharmacy,” and smell flowery perfumes and exotic spices. You’ll visit the weavers. Picture yourself ducking into a small dark doorway and ending up in an airy courtyard filled with the sound of looms clacking. On the wall are rainbows of scarves and blankets, soft to the touch. Imagine climbing up what seems like a hundred stairs to look out over the impressive tanneries, trying to mask the strong smell of the rich dye with your small mint sprig.
Not only will your guide explain the history of the stops you make, but he’ll also give insight into the deeper cultural beliefs that you might not always see at first. You’ll get to stop for lunch at one of our favorite restaurants where they’ll wow you with their flavorful food. Count the number of different salads you taste…you’ll be amazed! A comfortable night in your riad or hotel will be welcome after this full day of adventure.
This day is yours to enjoy, with the freedom to spend the day in peaceful bliss. Soak in the tranquil atmosphere of a Moroccan morning. Let yourselves embrace the slow pace the Mediterranean is known for. You will have a couples spa in the afternoon at a luxurious riad. Spa packages offer a wide range of treatments, from the traditional Moroccan Hammam to massages to cutting-edge skin care. Your driver will be at your service throughout the day as needed! Dinner will be served at a local restaurant.
Today will be the longest drive of the tour, but the route from Fes to Marrakech is filled with beautiful sights. You’ll drive up into the Middle Atlas Mountains and wind along the base of the High Atlas Mountains. Take in the natural landscape…it will be a wonderful change of scenery! Ask your driver what he thinks you shouldn’t miss in Marrakech. A fun way to see the city is with a horse and carriage ride. Imagine the clip clop of the horse’s hooves on the road, the breeze and Marrakech sights rolling past you. You’ll pull up by the Jma El Fnaa, the big square of Marrakech, which is full of activity at almost all times. If you go in the evening, you’ll be able to see it when it is most energetic. Stalls of food are set up everywhere, with vendors calling out their specialties. Fresh juices, dried fruit, hot meals…your stomach will be content if you allow yourself to sample the treats. If you are feeling bold, take a picture of yourself holding the snake from the snake charmer! Your friends will love to see the evidence.
Today you’ll find out more about why Marrakech is a favorite to travelers all around the world. Its popularity is only growing as more people find out about it, and everyone who visits leaves understanding the obsession. Your guide will take you to the Koutoubia mosque, the largest mosque in Marrakech. Lean back to see how it reaches into the sky…Imagine walking through the souks in the medina. Some of the most notable stalls are the ones filled with lanterns, sending out glittery flecks of colored light. Silver, brass, spices and soft material surround you as you pass through the stalls, wondering which one to stop at. Your guide will take you to the Bahia palace, the old residence of the grand viziers, Si Moussa and his son, Bou Ahmed. Its name means “brilliance” and you’ll understand why as you explore the gardens and salons. The Saadian tombs are another must-see of Marrakech. These tombs, forgotten about for years, are where many from the royal Saadian dynasty are buried. This might be the most beautiful burial site you’ll ever see…the tombs are covered in flawless zellij patterns and lavish artwork.
In the early morning, you have the option of seeing Marrakech with an unforgettable hot air balloon ride for two (not included in price, ask salesperson). After breakfast, you will enjoy a free day in Marrakech. You will have a cooking class at La Maison Arabe – giving you new memories to cherish and new recipes to try! For lunch today, you’ll eat the delicious food you made with the guidance of the experienced cooking teachers. In the afternoon, take pleasure in the simple delight of a romantic horse and carriage ride around the red city. Your driver will be at your service throughout the day. Dinner will be served at a local restaurant. Enjoy your final evening in Morocco!
After breakfast and at your convenience, your driver will escort you to the airport for departure. Since the drive from Marrakech to Casablanca is 3 hours, you may consider booking an afternoon or evening flight .
We hope you have a safe trip back, and you are always welcome to return to this country that now holds a special place in your heart.
