Questions · Planning the route
Is my 7–10 day first route realistic?
The classic first loop is Marrakech, a night in the dunes, Fes and Chefchaouen, and it takes about 10 days without rushing. In 7 days, drop one of them: either the desert (saves about two days of driving) or Chefchaouen.
Start where your flight is cheapest, but fly into one city and out of another if you can: Marrakech in, Fes or Tangier out saves a full day of backtracking. Trains link Tangier, Rabat, Casablanca, Marrakech and Fes; the desert and Chefchaouen are by road.

What travellers say goes wrong
Too many stops, drive times underestimated, and nobody tells you what to cut.
