Casablanca To Marrakech Tour Overview

A five-day tour from Casablanca to Marrakech, a city of historic landmarks, souks and gardens.

This tour takes you from Casablanca to Marrakech, one of Morocco's most visited cities.

Marrakech, one of the former imperial capitals of Morocco, is known for its landmarks, including Jemaa el-Fnaa, the souks, the city walls and gates, gardens, palaces and riads, mosques, tombs, the Mellah, museums, music, theatre and dance, crafts and Moroccan cuisine.

The Casablanca to Marrakech Tour visits several of these places over five days. The trip begins with a tour of Casablanca, the largest city and economic centre of Morocco. The tour then continues to Marrakech, the second largest city in Morocco, also known as the Pearl of the South. Here you will visit the 16th-century Saadian Tombs, the Bahia Palace, the Koutoubia Minaret, the Menara Gardens and Djemaa El Fna square.

The journey ends with a visit to the Atlas Mountains and an excursion to the Ourika Valley, a picturesque valley dotted with Berber villages at the foot of the Atlas Mountains.

The 5-day Casablanca to Marrakech Tour shows you the varied landscapes and settings of Morocco.

Wonderful weekend getaway!

August 2021, Tripadvisor

I have been traveling with Earthbound Expeditions for the last 16 years and it is always an excellent experience and adventure. After Nepal and Tibet in 2005, Nepal and Bhutan in 2008, and India somewhere in between, this time I asked Earthbound/Mr Rajan, to organize a weekend out of Kathmandu, combining hiking, good food, great sunrise and sunset, accommodation with great and mystic view… all wrapped in a budget price. And guess what? I got it all! Excellent weekend with some unforgettable hiking around Nagarkot and Balthali! To be continued…

Awesome experience, great people!

Awesome experience, great people! I had a wonderful time on the trek and tour through Annapurna region of the Himalayas. The staff was amazing and extremely friendly!! I couldn’t have asked for a better, kinder, more professional team to take us on this adventure. Thank you Rajan, Arjun, Rajan and the rest of the staff for such a wonderful time.

Literally perfect, profound, magical.

Truly exceeded all of my expectations. Every detail considered, every concern managed gently, swiftly and with a never ending sense of humor and lightness. There was a genuine and personal concern that everyone had the experience they came to have. It was downright psychedelic how magical this experience was and I give so much credit and appreciation to Mr. Rajan, Arjun as well as the rest of their organization and the locals they work with who made my trek one of the most profound experiences of my entire life.

Wonderful Trekking in the Himalayas

April 2021, Tripadvisor

Earthbound Expeditions made this trekking trip so very special and wonderful for all of us 25 people. The trip was very well arranged and we gained a lot of knowledge about Nepal & the Himalayas from Arjun and his great porters team. We enjoyed very lovely people and food at very nice tea houses with great mountain views. Thanks for all!
