About this family trip to Morocco
This family trip to Morocco is a small group tour made for parents and children who want real adventure without long, tiring days. Several families travel together with one local guide, so the kids make friends from the first evening while parents share the road, the stories and the sunsets.
In ten days you cross the High Atlas on a mule, explore Aït Benhaddou, walk in the Dades and Todra gorges, ride camels into the Sahara and sleep two nights near the dunes of Merzouga. The drives have regular stops, the hotels have space for families, and every day has one big highlight.
