Village Stay
See monuments spanning the history of Morocco on a walk through Rabat's Old Quarter. Visit the ancient Roman city of Volubilis, before spending the night in the remote holy village of Moulay Idriss. Once forbidden to non-Muslims, this village offers an excellent insight into traditional Moroccan life.

Days 5-6
Chefchaouen
Nestled between two peaks in the Rif Mountains, pretty Chefchaouen is a perfect place to relax. Spend your time here shopping for unique handicrafts in the medina, or simply sit at a cafe and watch the world go by. Then take a tour to the coastal port of Tangier.
Day 7-8
Marrakesh
Tantalise your senses with a walk through the city's main square - Djemaa el-Fna. Rub shoulders with crowds of visitors and locals alike, engrossed in the spectacle of dancers, snake-charmers and acrobats.
