Plan each change of base
Check which connections actually serve each place. Trains, buses and road transfers have different coverage; confirm tickets, departure and arrival points, and the final leg to your accommodation.

Travel ideas for Morocco
Medinas, Atlantic cities, Rif landscapes and Erg Chebbi dunes to help you choose a route through Morocco, with bases and transfers planned by area.
YOUR JOURNEY, AT YOUR RHYTHM
What to discover in Morocco
- Marrakesh: Explore the medina, Jemaa el-Fna square and the Menara gardens; check visitor arrangements for palaces, gardens and other sites before entering.
- Fez: Discover the lanes of Fez el-Bali and the Bab Boujloud gate. Respect working workshops and religious spaces, and ask before photographing residents.
- Chefchaouen: Explore the blue lanes and kasbah of this Rif town. If you extend your visit into the mountains, prepare your route, equipment and plans for the conditions that day.
- Rabat: Combine the Kasbah of the Oudayas with the heritage of Chellah and walks around the capital; check admission and the open areas of each site.
- Casablanca: Discover the city centre’s art deco buildings and the area around the Hassan II Mosque. For a visit inside the mosque, check official tour arrangements and conditions.
- Tangier: Explore the medina and the kasbah area to discover the heritage of this northern port city; arrange museum visits and other admissions separately.
- Essaouira: Discover the walled medina and the Atlantic harbour area. Enjoy coastal walks while respecting working areas and sea conditions.
- Merzouga and Erg Chebbi: Set aside a separate stage for the southeastern dunes. Confirm transfers and the conditions of any desert outing; prepare water, sun protection and flexibility for the heat.
Cities and coast: choose Marrakesh with an extension to Essaouira, or Casablanca and Rabat as a separate group. Check transport and allow time for medinas, museums and breaks; you do not need to join all eight suggestions.
North or desert: consider Tangier, Chefchaouen and Fez according to your connections and available days. For Merzouga and Erg Chebbi, plan a separate stage with confirmed transfers and accommodation; the distances make the whole country unsuitable as a day trip from a single base.
How to choose the stages of your Morocco trip
These eight suggestions are spread across cities, coast, mountains and desert. Choose one or two areas according to your available days and connections; they are editorial alternatives rather than a continuous tour with transfers included.
Set aside a stage for the desert
Merzouga and Erg Chebbi require access and activities to be arranged separately. Review the weather, route conditions and what the booked service includes; an accommodation reservation does not automatically include a dune excursion.
Respect sites and check requirements
Check admission conditions for monuments and religious spaces, and ask permission before photographing people. Before booking, verify current entry requirements for your passport and route with the relevant authorities.
