Drive along the open roads from Fez through the ever-changing Atlas Mountain scenery to the Sahara then on to Marrakech through gorges and valleys brimming with kasbahs and oases. On this route you will experience the Imperial Cities of Fez & Meknes, the peaceful Mid Atlas, the magnificent High Atlas and the wilderness of the Sahara - and that is just at the half-way point. Following a fabulous night under the stars in the desert your journey continues along the stunning gorges of southern Morocco, passing kasbah after kasbah, eventually crossing the High Atlas Mountains once more.

This highly recommended holiday links Imperial Cities and famous kasbahs, such as Ait Ben Haddou and Telouet, with stunning natural sights of Morocco such as the high dunes of Erg Chebbi, the Barbary Apes in the Cedar Forest, the towering Todra Gorge and all the wonderful mountain landscapes in-between.
