Good to know
Practical notes
- Fourteen days lets you experience the entire country — cities, desert, mountains and coast — without a single rushed day.
- Generous pacing means two nights almost everywhere, so the journey feels like a celebration rather than a sprint.
- Every stay is a palace riad, kasbah retreat or exclusive desert camp; the whole journey is private and chauffeured.
Frequently asked
Is 14 days too long for Morocco?
Not at this pace. With two nights in most places the grand tour never feels rushed — it feels complete. If you have less time, we can compress it to ten or twelve days while keeping the highlights and the standard of stay.
Can the grand tour be tailored for a special occasion?
Absolutely — it is our most popular choice for a significant anniversary or a vow renewal. We weave in private dinners, a desert celebration, a photographer and other touches around your occasion.
