Fez, Chefchaouen & the Atlantic

The cities, given enough time to stop blurring into each other. Mornings with a guide who knows the history rather than the shortcut, afternoons entirely your own, and riads picked for whether the courtyard is quiet.

Day by day

This is our version. Say the word and we'll move, stretch or cut any of it.

DAYS 01–02
arrival only

Casablanca → Rabat

Landed and moved straight out of the airport city. Rabat's kasbah, the Chellah ruins, and a coastline most itineraries drive past.

stay · Rabat riadmeals · breakfasts
DAYS 03–04
~3h driving

Meknès, Volubilis & into Fez

Roman mosaics with nobody on them, then the medina that takes a lifetime. Two nights so the first one isn't wasted on arrival.

stay · Fez riadmeals · breakfasts, one dinner
DAY 05
no driving

Fez, guided and then not

A historian for the morning — tanneries, madrasas, the fondouks — and the afternoon to get lost on purpose.

stay · Fez riadmeals · breakfast
DAYS 06–07
~4h driving

Cedar forests → Chefchaouen

North to the blue city, with two nights so you see it at seven in the morning rather than at noon with everyone else.

stay · Chefchaouen guesthousemeals · breakfasts, dinners
DAYS 08–09
~5h driving

Down to the Atlantic

Asilah's painted walls and the ocean air, at a pace that assumes you are tired of cities by now.

stay · Asilah guesthousemeals · breakfasts
DAY 10
~3h driving

Casablanca, and home

A last stop at the Hassan II mosque if the timing works, then the airport.

meals · breakfast

Add the desert to the end?

Ten days of cities is a lot of medina. Plenty of people add three or four in the south to break it. We'll price both.

Questions people ask before enquiring

No. You get the written plan and a price range for your dates with nothing to pay and no card details. Most people ask two or three rounds of questions before deciding — that's normal and welcome.
