Itinerary

Day	Destination	Description
Day 1	Marrakesh	Arrive early to explore the monuments of vibrant Marrakesh, from its beautiful tropical gardens to the Koutoubia Mosque.
Day 2	Imlil	Pass the lion-guarded gates and cypress trees of Kasbah Tamandout. Take in the crisp mountain air and spectacular views on a trek up to the remote Armed from the village of Imlil. Looking out to Mount Toubkal, Armed is home for the night.
Day 3	Ait Benhaddou	Follow in the footsteps of the gold, ivory and slave traders who once stopped in this magnificent clay kasbah on their journey across the Sahara. A UNESCO World Heritage site, this is one of the most beautiful kasbahs in all of Morocco.
Day 4	Desert Safari	Travel through the stunning Draa Valley and across the shifting sands of the Sahara by camel to a memorable night sleeping under the stars in a desert camp.
Day 5	Taroudannt	It's a long drive, but zipping over dunes and past lush oases makes our 4WD drive jeep journey to the red walls of Taroudannt worthwhile. The stunning town is laid-back but highly atmospheric, and its bustling markets are the best place to pick up a souvenir or two.
Days 6-7	Essaouira	Leave the verdant valleys of the High Atlas Mountains behind and journey back towards the coast. Picture-perfect Essaouira is a pleasant place to unwind, with its pretty harbour, sandy beaches and whitewashed houses.
Days 8-9	Marrakesh	The journey ends where it began - in busy Marrakesh. Take in the brilliant colours, spicy scents and enticing sounds of the souqs, and don't miss a trip to the intricate Saadian tombs.
