MOROCCO in 9 Days

Morocco is one of those destinations that hooks you with contrasts that make you feel like you're on different planets. From the chaos of Marrakech, where the wild traffic of the souks and the scent of spices fill the air, to the silence of the Sahara, where the only sound at dawn is the wind moving through the dunes.

This experience is designed for people who want something more than a typical holiday. On this trip, we’ll cross drastic changes in landscapes, get to know the local culture from the inside out, and share long road trips and unforgettable moments together. An intense, exciting, and authentic adventure.

Over 9 days, we will plunge into the essence of Morocco, crossing mountains, desert, coast, medinas, and sharing experiences with the local people. A combination that will make your trip unforgettable. You won't just come to see Morocco, you'll come to live it.

Let the adventure begin! The Nowa Experiences team will be waiting for you at the airport to transfer you to our riad, kicking off our adventure in the Red City, a fascinating place where chaos and beauty coexist in every corner.

After dropping off our bags and getting settled in, we’ll celebrate with our welcome dinner. It’s the perfect moment to break the ice, start getting to know our new friends, and toast to everything coming our way. Let’s go!

Today we hit the streets to explore the soul of Marrakech! 

We’re starting strong by visiting the electric contrast of the Majorelle Garden and the stunning architecture of the Bahia Palace, two absolute gems for understanding local history and art. Next, it’s time to dive into the maze of the medina's souks. We’ll get lost among stalls of rugs, lanterns, and spices, hidden courtyards, and soak up the city's unmistakable energy.

As late afternoon approaches, we’ll head back to the riad to fire up the body with our first functional workout. Sweat it out, recharge the endorphins, and get ready to enjoy another authentic Moroccan dinner together.

Today the landscapes change completely! We leave Marrakech behind to venture into a mountain range that runs across the northwest of Africa. Get ready for an epic road trip crossing high mountain passes, traditional Berber villages, and scenery that looks frozen in time.

Along the way, we’ll visit Ait Benhaddou, one of the most iconic places in Morocco and a UNESCO World Heritage site (the backdrop for movies like Gladiator or Game of Thrones). At sunset, we’ll reach the spectacular Dades Valley, surrounded by brutal rock formations, ancient kasbahs, and endless desert horizons.

Today we travel into the deepest southeastern part of Morocco. 

The valleys slowly fade away as the horizon opens up, turning silent and wild. We’ll wind through the impressive rock walls of the Todra Gorges, cross remote villages, and finally hit Merzouga: the true gateway to the Sahara Desert.

This is where one of the peak moments of the trip happens: catching the sunset from the top of the dunes. Watching the desert turn into shades of gold, blazing orange, and deep red as the sun dips below the horizon is an incredible experience. Tonight, we will sleep in a camp in the middle of the Sahara. Authentic food, Berber music rhythms around a campfire, and a starry sky that will leave you speechless await us. A night you'll remember forever.

We have to wake up early, but it’ll be worth it. Before the world wakes up, we’ll trek up the dunes to watch the sun rise over Erg Chebbi. Plus, we’ll do a morning yoga session right in the heart of the desert to kick off the day with the absolute best energy.

As the Sahara slowly comes to life, we’ll explore the fascinating culture and traditions of the region, visiting local villages and discovering the rhythm of desert life. The afternoon is yours to enjoy exactly how you want:

• Relaxing by the pool.
• Chasing an adrenaline rush sandboarding down the dunes.
• Or exploring the surroundings on a quad bike ride. 

The desert invites you to move at your own pace!
