With private transportation, a dedicated guide, and flexible scheduling, this three-day experience is tailored entirely to your interests and pace.

Why Choose a Private Tour from Casablanca?

Private tours offer distinct advantages over group experiences:

Complete Personalization: Design your itinerary according to your interests, pace, and schedule

Flexible Timing: Stop longer at locations that captivate you, skip attractions that don't appeal

Dedicated Guide: Your guide focuses exclusively on your group, providing detailed knowledge and cultural insights

Private Transportation: Comfortable, climate-controlled vehicle exclusively for your party

Authentic Experiences: Access to hidden gems, family workshops, and local establishments unknown to standard tourists

Photography Opportunities: Plenty of time for quality photos without group constraints

Comfort and Luxury: Choose accommodations that match your preferences and budget

Day 1: Casablanca to Fez via Imperial Route

Your private tour begins with early morning departure from Casablanca.

Hassan II Mosque and Casablanca Exploration

Before departing, your guide may arrange a visit to the iconic Hassan II Mosque, one of the world's largest mosques with stunning architecture and ocean views. The mosque's minaret rises 200 meters, and if guided tours are available, you'll gain insight into Islamic architecture and Moroccan culture.

You may also explore Casablanca's medina and modern districts, understanding the city's transition from colonial port to modern economic hub.

The Journey to Fez

You'll travel southeast through Morocco's interior, passing through the fertile plains and gradually approaching the Middle Atlas region. The drive takes approximately 5-6 hours, allowing stops at scenic viewpoints and small towns.

Your guide will explain geographical features, historical context, and contemporary Moroccan society. Private tour guides often have deep local knowledge, pointing out features and stories that standard tour groups miss.

Arrival in Fez

By late afternoon, you'll reach Fez, one of the world's oldest continuously inhabited cities and home to one of the most complex medieval medinas. You'll check into your chosen accommodation, with time to freshen up before exploring.

Your guide may take you for an evening walk through the medina's quieter neighborhoods, avoiding daytime crowds and experiencing the city as locals do.

Day 2: Fez Medina and Imperial City Exploration

Day two is devoted entirely to exploring Fez's treasures at your own pace.

The Ancient Medina

The Fez medina is a UNESCO World Heritage Site containing thousands of alleyways, traditional workshops, artisan markets, and historic monuments. Your private guide will navigate these complex streets, explaining architectural details, pointing out significant sites, and facilitating interaction with local craftspeople.

Key locations include:

  • University of Al-Qarawiyyin: One of the world's oldest continuously functioning universities (founded 859 AD)
  • Leather Tanneries: Traditional leather-working facilities using centuries-old methods
  • Fes Mellah: The historic Jewish quarter with unique architecture and cultural significance
  • Royal Palace Gate (Bab Makina): The impressive entrance to the sultan's residence
  • Various Souks: Each specialized in different crafts – spices, textiles, metalwork, ceramics

Your guide will take you to family-run workshops where artisans create traditional goods, providing opportunities to see craftsmanship firsthand and purchase directly from makers.

Dinner and Evening in Fez

Your guide will recommend excellent restaurants serving authentic Moroccan cuisine. In a private tour, you may dine at a traditional riad, enjoying home-cooked meals and genuine hospitality.

Day 3: Fez to Chefchaouen

Your final day brings you to Morocco's most photogenic and artistically unique city.

Morning Departure and Journey

You'll leave Fez in the morning, driving north through scenic countryside toward the Rif Mountains. The journey takes approximately 3-4 hours through beautiful and relatively untouristic landscape.

Your guide will point out geographical features, explain the distinct character of different regions, and share stories about Moroccan mountain life and culture.

Chefchaouen: The Blue City

Chefchaouen is immediately striking – virtually every building is painted in shades of blue, creating an otherworldly atmosphere. This artistic mountain town is famous for its beauty and has become increasingly popular with international travelers seeking authentic experiences.

Your private guide will lead you through:

  • The Blue Medina: Narrow streets with stunning blue architecture at every turn
  • The Kasbah: Historic fortress overlooking the medina and surrounding mountains
  • Plaza Uta el-Hammam: The main square with the mosque and market
  • Art Galleries and Studios: The thriving artistic community
  • Scenic Viewpoints: Locations offering panoramic views of the blue city and surrounding landscape

Unlike group tours, your private guide can adjust timing based on light conditions for optimal photography and allow you to linger at locations that particularly appeal to you.

Overnight in Chefchaouen

You'll stay in a comfortable guesthouse or riad in Chefchaouen, allowing evening exploration of the medina as light fades and the blue tones deepen. Many travelers find the evening atmosphere, with locals going about daily activities and fewer tourists present, more authentic than daytime exploration.

Day 4: Return to Casablanca

Your final morning allows time for last-minute exploration before returning to Casablanca.

Final Chefchaouen Exploration

You may take an early morning walk to capture different light on the blue buildings, visit local cafés for traditional mint tea, or explore neighborhoods beyond the main medina.

Return Journey

You'll begin the drive back to Casablanca, taking a different route than the outbound journey if preferred. The return journey takes 5-6 hours, allowing stops along the way.

Many travelers use return journey time to reflect on experiences, ask their guide questions about what they've witnessed, and discuss recommendations for future visits.
