The route

Questions about this trip

Why add Essaouira to this route?

It's the only one of our Casablanca routes that reaches the coast — a different pace after the desert and the mountains, with fresh seafood and sea air.

Is 12 days too long for a first visit to Morocco?

Not at all — it's paced with rest days built in rather than a city a day, so it doesn't feel rushed even at this length.

Can I skip Essaouira and shorten the trip?

Yes, our shorter routes from Casablanca cover the same imperial cities and desert without the coast leg.

What's the drive time to Essaouira from Marrakech?

About two and a half hours each way, usually broken up with a stop at an argan oil cooperative.

Do you offer this same route from Marrakech instead?

Yes, ask about our Marrakech-based itineraries if that's a more convenient start or end point for your flights.
