Morocco in 3 Weeks: the Complete Grand Tour
With three weeks you can see it all - and still travel slowly enough to enjoy the mint tea. This is the definitive Morocco route, region by region.
The Route
| Days | Region |
|---|---|
| 1-3 | Casablanca & Rabat - arrival, Hassan II Mosque, the calm capital |
| 4-6 | Fes - the medieval medina + Meknes and Volubilis |
| 7-9 | The north: Chefchaouen, Tangier, Tetouan (northern Morocco) |
| 10-13 | The Sahara loop: gorges, Merzouga dunes, kasbah valleys to Ouarzazate |
| 14-17 | Marrakesh + Atlas day trips (Imlil, Ourika) |
| 18-21 | The coast: Essaouira, Taghazout surf, Agadir |
How to Travel It
Mix trains and CTM buses for the north, then a rental car or 3-day desert tour for the south - or self-drive the whole thing (road trip guide).
Shorter on Time?
Trim to the 2-week, 10-day or 7-day versions - or decide with how many days you need.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is 3 weeks too long for Morocco?
Not at all - three weeks lets you cover all four regions (imperial cities, north, Sahara, coast) at a relaxed pace, with time for cooking classes, hikes and beach days.
What's the best 3-week Morocco route?
Casablanca and Rabat, then Fes, the north (Chefchaouen and Tangier), the Sahara loop, Marrakesh with Atlas day trips, and finally the Atlantic coast.
Should you drive or use transport for 3 weeks in Morocco?
A mix works best: trains and buses for the flat north, a rental car or desert tour for the mountain-and-Sahara south.
