Día 2 – Fez

We woke up to have breakfast early in this circuit of imperial cities of Morocco and discover what we can find in this magnificent religious city. Founded in the eighth century by Idriss II is considered one of the four imperial capitals. During our guided tour of the city we will visit the most emblematic places, such as the gates of the Royal Palace, the Jewish quarter and the fortress, which has the best view of Fez el-Bali, as the medina or old city is called. You will not be left wanting more! Because we’ll make sure you see everything there is to find out inside the city.

We will walk for several hours to really capture the charm of this city.

We will enter through the famous Bab el Jeloud gate and we will experience a journey back in time by getting to know a part of the city where you can still perceive the Middle Ages.

We will observe the walls that protect the city, as well as the many labyrinthine alleys, where we will enjoy thousands of smells and flavors that offers us this city considered a World Heritage Site.

After a splendid day we will return to the hotel where a delicious dinner and a comfortable bed to rest awaits us.

Día 3 – Fez – Rabat – Marrakech

Today on this tour of imperial cities of Morocco in private we will visit two of the imperial cities of Morocco to continue our tour. After a big breakfast to get the necessary energy, we will go in the direction of Rabat, diplomatic and administrative capital of Morocco. As in the rest of the big cities, the capital of Morocco has its own medina, where you can appreciate the daily heartbeat of Rabat life. In Rabat we can also, among other things, see from the outside the impressive Royal Palace, which is the main and official residence of the King of Morocco.

Once we have finished visiting the capital, we will continue our tour of Morocco’s imperial cities and Marrakech will be our next stop. We will arrive in the evening at the hotel where dinner will be prepared for us and we will be able to recharge our batteries once we have eaten.

Día 4 – Marrakesh

Marrakech awaits us! Perhaps the best known of the imperial cities of this circuit of imperial cities of Morocco, as this city has a lot to offer, so we got up early and after breakfast we started the tour.

Marrakech is called “The Pearl of the South” and today it will not be difficult to understand why it is called this way. We will start in the grandiose Menara Gardens, which have a side pavilion and countless olive trees; which will share an exclusive aroma with us.

Marrakech is a unique city and completely different from the rest, sightseeing in Marrakech is a new and fascinating sensory experience: the color, taste and smell that you breathe from the moment you enter the city will not dissipate until weeks after returning.

Later, we will take an exterior tour of the minaret of the Koutoubia, the so-called twin sister of the Giralda in Seville, so we encourage you to compare the two. We will continue walking through the amazing streets of Marrakech and once inside the semi-ancient part of the city, a visit to the Bahia Palace, owned by a nobleman of the city. It was built with the intention of being the largest palace of all times, that’s why its name means “brilliance“.

Finally we will go to the Jmaa el Fnaa square, which is one of the most interesting places in Morocco from where you can access the souks and the medina. We will be able to observe the guilds of artisans of wood, ceramics, furriers, etc. An incredible experience to live!

After an intense day in one of the most precious cities of Morocco, we return to the hotel for dinner and rest.

*Optional Activity: Typical dinner at Chez Ali Fantasy under kaidal tents (excursion to be arranged directly with the guide).

Día 5 – Marrakesh

Today is your day off on this tour of Morocco’s imperial cities!

We think that in Marrakech there is so much to see, that we could not leave without everyone revisiting their favorite places or going to explore new areas.
