Solo-ish Morocco

This G Adventures small-group tour begins in Casablanca with a cooking class that showcases both coastal and mountain Moroccan dishes. The itinerary moves through Meknes, where Roman ruins and local wine tasting paint a diverse picture of northern Morocco. The medinas of Fès and Marrakech offer winding streets to navigate, including guided visits to the Saadian Tombs and Jemaa el-Fna square in Marrakech.

One of the tour’s distinctive experiences is an overnight stay in a desert camp near Merzouga, surrounded by dunes where the sunset must be reached by camel or on foot. The journey also includes visits to the Todra Gorge and the Aït Ben Haddou kasbah, notable for their geology and history respectively. Travel is by private air-conditioned van, with some lengthy drives, and accommodations range from hotels to traditional riads and desert tents.

By design, this is a brisk itinerary with early starts and limited downtime, encouraging camaraderie among solo travellers without single supplement charges. The G Adventures team includes local guides and a Chief Experience Officer who facilitates the group's logistics and enriches the cultural encounters.
