Private 10-Day Morocco Tour Package from Marrakech
Discover the Best Morocco Tour Package 10 Days From Marrakech With Private Desert Tours!
This private 10-day Morocco tour from Marrakech visits the Sahara Desert at Merzouga, the imperial cities of Fes, Meknes, and Rabat, the blue-washed town of Chefchaouen, and the coastal town of Essaouira for €1,790 per person, with a private driver-guide for the full trip — no group, no fixed schedule with strangers, just your own vehicle and your own pace.
Chefchaouen, the white-and-blue city in the Rif Mountains, is one of the highlights of the route: known in the Berber language for its art and traditions, and often described as the last rampart before the Mediterranean and the Iberian Peninsula. The loop runs from Marrakech into the desert, on to Fes, north to Chefchaouen, then back down through Rabat and Casablanca to Marrakech.
This private Morocco tour package combines the Sahara Desert with four imperial cities: Marrakech, Rabat, Fes, and Meknes. The longer your private Morocco tour duration is, the shorter your driving time is each day, which is one reason this 10-day version is a more comfortable pace than the shorter 3-4 day desert loops.
The drive from Marrakech to the Erg Chebbi luxury desert camp is genuinely long to do in a single day, so the route breaks the journey with an overnight in the Dades Gorges, a Berber village with some of the best luxury accommodations in the area. The next day continues to the Erg Chebbi luxury camp, where our Berber team welcomes you with mint tea, following Berber tradition.
Life at the Erg Chebbi Luxury Desert Camp
On this Morocco tour package, you’ll spend your desert nights in an exclusive luxury desert camp in the Erg Chebbi dunes. Your private tent combines luxury and authenticity, reflecting Berber culture and heritage, with a toilet and hot water shower inside the tent.
Days at the luxury desert camp are full of optional activities: relax and read, go camel trekking, try sandboarding on the dunes, stargaze, or gather for Berber music around the fire at night. ATV (quad biking) is also available if you’d like it.

Frequently Asked Questions
The full day-by-day itinerary is further below on this page. Here are the questions travelers ask most before booking this route:
Is 10 days enough to see Morocco?
Ten days is enough to comfortably cover the Sahara Desert, the imperial cities, and Chefchaouen without rushing between stops, which is why it’s one of the most popular lengths for a first Morocco trip. Shorter 3-4 day trips only reach the desert; this route adds the north and the coast.
How much does this 10-day private Morocco tour cost?
This tour is €1,790 per person, including private transportation, an English-speaking driver-guide, all accommodation, dinners and breakfast daily, and the camel trek and desert camp stay. Flights, lunch, drinks, and tips are not included — see the full lists above.
What’s the best time of year for this route?
October to April gives the most comfortable conditions for the Merzouga desert leg; the shoulder seasons of March-May and September-November tend to be the best overall balance between desert comfort and mild weather in the cities and mountains.
Do I need a visa for this tour?
Most travelers from the US, UK, EU, Canada, and Australia don’t need a visa for stays under 90 days, but requirements vary by nationality, so confirm your own requirements before booking flights.
How fit do I need to be for the camel trek and the Akchour Waterfalls hike?
The camel trek suits any fitness level; you can walk instead of riding if you prefer. The Akchour Waterfalls excursion on day 7 is a moderate hike of several hours, so comfortable walking shoes are worth packing.
Is this a private tour or a group tour?
100% private. You travel in your own vehicle with your own driver-guide for the full 10 days, not grouped with other travelers on a fixed schedule.
Can I customize this itinerary?
Yes. See our customized Morocco tour page or contact us directly to adjust stops, dates, or camp preferences.
