Morocco is a country of long, beautiful roads: mountain passes, palm valleys, desert tracks and coastal highways. The way you travel them changes your whole trip. A private tour, with a vehicle and a driver only for your group, is the most comfortable way to discover the country, especially on a first visit. Here is what you get, which itineraries work best and how to book.
What is a private tour?
On a private tour you do not share the vehicle with strangers. Your driver picks you up at your hotel, riad or airport, follows your itinerary and adapts to your rhythm. On all our tours the vehicle is air-conditioned and the driver speaks French, English or Spanish.
The advantages
- Flexibility: stop for photos, a mint tea or a short walk whenever you want.
- Comfort: no crowded minibus, no waiting for other passengers.
- Local knowledge: your driver knows the roads, the best viewpoints and the small places that big groups miss.
- Ideal for families and couples: the pace is set by you, not by a group.
- Tailor-made: add a night, change a stop or choose a luxury desert camp.
Best private itineraries by starting city
From Marrakech
The classic is the 3 Days Desert Tour from Marrakech to Merzouga. With more time, the 5-Day Desert Tour from Marrakech or the 7-Day Tour with a Luxury Desert Camp go deeper into the south. See all Marrakech tours.
From Fes
Fes is the closest imperial city to the Merzouga dunes. Choose the 3 Days Desert Expedition from Fes or travel one-way to Marrakech in 4 or 5 days.
From Casablanca
Ideal if you land at Mohammed V airport: the 6-day, 7-day, 9-day and 10-day tours combine the imperial cities, the Atlas and the Sahara.

Private tour or self-drive?
Renting a car is possible, but Moroccan mountain roads, medina parking and navigation in old cities can be stressful. A local driver knows where to stop, where to park near your riad and which roads are open after rain or snow on the passes. You can sit back, enjoy the landscapes and ask all your questions about the country along the way.
How to choose the right length
- 2 to 3 days: one desert loop from Marrakech or Fes.
- 4 to 5 days: a desert loop with more time in the Dades Valley and Ouarzazate.
- 6 to 7 days: imperial cities plus the Sahara, from Casablanca or Tangier.
- 9 to 10 days: a complete tour of Morocco, from the north to the south.
What makes a good private tour
Look for a clear itinerary, realistic driving times, a driver who speaks your language and transparent information about what is included. Ask about the accommodation category and the type of desert camp, standard or luxury, so that the trip matches your expectations. We are happy to answer all these questions before you book.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is a private tour more expensive than a group tour?
Usually yes per person, but the difference shrinks for families and groups of friends who share the vehicle, and the comfort and flexibility are much greater.
Can a private tour start at the airport?
Yes. Send us your flight details and your driver can meet you at the airport.
Can we change the itinerary?
Yes. A private tour is built around you: we can add nights, remove stops or change the order of the cities.
