How long is the Tangier to Marrakech tour?

This private tour runs 6 days and 5 nights, connecting Tangier in the north to Marrakech in the south, with stops in Chefchaouen and Fes along the way.

Who this route suits

This itinerary is built for two common situations: travelers arriving in Morocco by ferry from Spain into Tangier, and travelers who want to see northern Morocco’s Rif Mountains and imperial cities before continuing to Marrakech, rather than flying directly between the two regions.

Extending into the Sahara Desert

Because the route ends in Marrakech, travelers with extra time often extend this tour directly into one of our Marrakech to Merzouga desert itineraries, turning a northern Morocco trip into a full south-to-Sahara route without needing a separate booking.

Tour Highlights

  • Start in Tangier, where the Mediterranean meets the Atlantic
  • Explore the blue-washed streets of Chefchaouen
  • Spend time in the Fes el-Bali Medina and its tanneries
  • Cross to Marrakech via the Middle Atlas
  • A practical route for travelers arriving from Spain by ferry
