Start your journey in Casablanca, where your personal driver will meet you at your hotel at 7:00 AM. After a smooth and scenic 2.5-hour drive across Morocco’s diverse landscapes, you’ll arrive in Marrakech, a city brimming with life, history, and breathtaking architecture.

Begin your exploration with a visit to the Koutoubia Mosque, Marrakech's largest and most impressive mosque. Admire the towering minaret and the peaceful gardens surrounding the mosque—an architectural marvel that stands as the heart of the city. While non-Muslims can’t enter, the exterior alone is worth capturing.

Watch as snake charmers, musicians, and dancers create a colorful atmosphere, offering you a true taste of Moroccan life.

After experiencing the dynamic square, enjoy a traditional Moroccan lunch in one of the Medina’s riads or charming restaurants, where you’ll savor delicious local dishes like tagine, couscous, and pastilla. Let the flavors of Morocco leave a lasting impression.

In the afternoon, visit the stunning Bahia Palace, a masterpiece of Moroccan architecture. Wander through its tranquil gardens, explore the ornate rooms adorned with intricate mosaics, and feel transported back in time to the 19th century when the palace was a royal residence.

Depending on your interests and time, you can either visit the Souks—vibrant markets filled with textiles, spices, and artisan crafts—or head to the Saadian Tombs, a hidden gem that showcases the beauty and history of Morocco’s Saadian dynasty.

After a day full of fascinating experiences, we’ll head back to Casablanca, where you’ll be dropped off at your hotel by 7:00 PM, filled with unforgettable memories and a deeper appreciation for Morocco’s cultural richness.
