Private Morocco Road Journeys

Northern Morocco with a Fes finish.

A guided Fes day is protected. Returning to Tangier needs separate time and transport.

Route: Tangier → Chefchaouen → Volubilis → Fes

€2,700–€4,500

Northern and imperial cities to Marrakech.

No Sahara detour. There is one Marrakech overnight; add a night for a full city day.

Route: Tangier → Chefchaouen → Fes → Rabat → Marrakech

€4,000–€7,000

The north, Sahara and southern valleys.

Two Sahara-region nights protect a full desert day, but the long regional transfers remain.

Route: Tangier → Chefchaouen → Fes → Merzouga → Dades → Marrakech

€7,000–€13,500

Fastest useful Marrakech return.

Reaches Erg Chebbi, but the final return to Marrakech is deliberately a very long road day.

Route: Marrakech, Dades, Erg Chebbi, then the long road back

€1,400–€2,200

Better return rhythm.

Splits the return through Ouarzazate so the last day is more sensible and Ait Ben Haddou fits naturally.

Route: Dades and Erg Chebbi outbound, Ouarzazate and Ait Ben Haddou on the return

€1,900–€3,000

Protects a full Sahara day.

Gives Erg Chebbi its own chapter instead of treating the dunes as one overnight on an out-and-back route.

Route: Marrakech to the Sahara and back through southern Morocco

€2,500–€4,000

Slower southern Morocco and Sahara.

Adds enough time for Dades, N'Kob, kasbah country, and the southern road to matter beyond reaching the dunes.

Route: Dades, Erg Chebbi, N'Kob, kasbah country, and the High Atlas

€4,000–€6,500

Most compact Marrakech-to-Fes Sahara crossing.

Avoids backtracking, but the final road north from Merzouga remains long.

Route: High Atlas, Dades, Erg Chebbi, Ziz Valley, and the Middle Atlas

€1,500–€2,300

Adds a full Erg Chebbi day.

The Sahara becomes a real stay between Marrakech and Fes rather than a single overnight.

Route: The three-day crossing with a full day protected around Erg Chebbi

€2,100–€3,300

Most compact Fes-to-Marrakech Sahara crossing.

Efficient rather than slow, with meaningful scenery and substantial road time every day.

Route: Middle Atlas, Erg Chebbi, Todra, Dades, and the High Atlas

€1,500–€2,300

Protects a full Sahara day.

Keeps two nights around Erg Chebbi before the route continues through Todra and Dades.

Route: Middle Atlas to Erg Chebbi, a full desert day, then Dades and Marrakech

€2,100–€3,300

Adds depth in both Sahara and Dades.

Protects a full Erg Chebbi day and a full Dades day instead of simply adding another destination.

Route: A full Sahara day and a full Dades Valley day between Fes and Marrakech

€2,700–€4,300

Broad first Morocco journey in a tighter shape.

Connects the main inland chapters with less breathing room between the north, Sahara, valleys, and Marrakech.

Route: North, Fes, Sahara, southern valleys, and Marrakech

€6,500–€10,500

Core Grand Morocco route with a practical departure day.

Keeps the strongest inland chapters while reserving the final day around the flight rather than adding another destination.

Route: The northern cities, Fes, Sahara, Dades, and Marrakech in twelve days

€7,500–€12,500

Most breathing room across the wider route.

Adds real pauses in Chefchaouen, Fes, the Sahara region, and Marrakech, plus Essaouira and final Casablanca positioning.

Route: Casablanca, Rabat, Tangier, Chefchaouen, Fes, Sahara, Dades, Marrakech, and Essaouira

€9,000–€14,500
