Detailed Description

Soulful secrets abound in Morocco’s heartlands, and 3,000 years of stories can be found within a small triangle of destinations in the country’s north. Three religions were introduced here, and Mohammed’s great-grandson Moulay Idriss founded the city of Fes in addition to Islam. More than a millennia after the Romans, Jewish immigrants and Andalusian Moriscos brought their own influence to a land of Riffians.

Morocco’s northern triangle deserves more than a few days. This handcrafted 10-day tour provides an in-depth exploration of a landscape and includes three UNESCO World Heritage Sites. You will begin your trip in Fes, where you will have several days to awaken your senses. The following day will use food as a focus to explore the changing artistic styles of the city. You will visit gardens and palaces that date back to different dynasties to create a detailed picture of the development of Morocco’s Islamic art.

The next day, you will travel to Meknes after stopping at Volubilis. Volubilis was built by the Romans and was where Christianity was introduced to Northwest Africa. The city now waits in a redolent state of ruin. Moulay Idriss is nearby, which is Morocco’s holiest city and a superb destination for exploring the serenity of Islam. Your three nights in Meknes will be about art because this Imperial city is Morocco’s artisanal capital. Everything in Meknes is a work of art.

You will end your customized tour in Morocco’s most sublime destination of Chefchaouen. Here, you will visit a Riffian village en route for a glimpse of Berber culture. Your experience in the blue city will be relaxing. Mountains surround Chefchaouen, and many hiking trails begin from the town’s higher gate. After the energy of Fes and the art of Meknes, Chefchaouen will complete your journey into the soul of Morocco.
