Experience Overview
Imagine a country with the charisma of Europe, the passion of Africa and the charm of the Middle East – a place where ancient cultures are intertwined with dramatic landscapes and time-worn medinas.
Imagine a country with the charisma of Europe, the passion of Africa and the charm of the Middle East – a place where ancient cultures are intertwined with dramatic landscapes and time-worn medinas. Now, the whole family can fall under Morocco’s spell on this eight-day adventure from magical Marrakech to the old pirate port of Essaouira, covering everything from camel-clad deserts to ocean beaches along the way. So, whether it’s in spice-infused back alleys, among crumbling Roman ruins or below the snow-capped Atlas Mountains – the allure of Morocco will prove impossible to ignore.
Highlights
- Sip sweet mint tea in rural villages, see goats climbing trees in the desert and tap your foot to traditional Amazigh musicians in Marrakech – Morocco is a real treat for the senses!
- Adventure into the Atlas Mountains and stay with a local family for an insight into traditional Moroccan life.
- With French, Portuguese and Jewish influences, Essaouira is about as exotic as it gets. Feast on freshly caught seafood, explore unique art galleries and be dazzled by a blue-specked townscape.
- Witness the magnificent rolling waves of the Atlantic Ocean from the back of a camel.

This was our first Intrepid adventure but won’t be our last. As a family with children aged 20, 17 and 12 it can be difficult to find a trip or activities that suits everyone but we found it in our Morocco holiday. Every day was full of excitement and new experiences. We had great fun with our fellow travelers and an excellent leader in Ibrahim. From our mountain stay, donkey and camel rides, to the different environments of Marrakech and Essaouira, we had an amazing time.

Intrepid travel and our local guide made our family trip to Morocco the adventure of a lifetime! We were able to relax ,connect with local people, and enjoy the well-planned itinerary. We are already dreaming about our next trip with Intrepid!

HUGE thanks to our guide, Mohamed Inti, for making our family trip around Morocco so absolutely magical. We learned so much about the history, culture, and language during our trip. Mohamed took such amazing and tireless care of us, working around our son's severe food allergies and breaking through our daughter's usual shyness.

We had a great time! Our tour guide, Mohamed Inti, was so kind and approachable. Every day, we got to do something fun and interesting. I also learned a lot of Arabic and about Moroccan culture. Overall, a great experience!

Amazing trip. Our guide Hassan was excellent.

A fabulous group trip that meant we made the most of the week we had available and saw some incredible sights and had some unforgettable experiences with a lovely bunch of like minded people. Worth enquiring to see what the age range of other children in the group already booked are - we were lucky that most of ours were similar age but with the age range 5-18 it could have been harder if they were further apart in age.

Our Canadian family of 6 had the pleasure of doing an Intrepid tour through Marrakesh, Taroudant, Agar, and Essaouira. We absolutely loved it. Our guide Mohamed was genuine and knowledgeable and we enjoyed our group and of course the variety in scenery and culture. The Atlas Mountains provided us a real personal touch as we stayed with local families. Our hearts go out to them as we've heard of the earthquake.

If you are on the fence about Morocco being suitable for young kids, don’t be. It’s wonderful, safe and fun.

Intrepid worked out well for our trip to Morocco, our group leader was well informed and was able to answer and assist on all aspects of our trip

This is a great trip to experience the colours, sounds and traditions of Morocco, from Souks to mountain villages to bustling seaside towns. Our guide, Tariq, was excellent and the itinerary full and exciting. Delicious food and spectacular scenery. We highly recommend this family holiday.

Really great trip, the entire family enjoyed it. Siad was a great leader and very knowledgeable, as well as environmentally conscious.

What a trip was worried about going in an adventure such as this with 3 boys 14, 8, 5 the are very fussy eaters and one with ASD. The group leader Saïd was simply the best played with the children and was cheerful and enthusiastic about everything the the positivity brushed off on everyone. Would definitely book again.

I would highly recommend a trip with Intrepid, everything was well organised, interesting and fulfilling, accommodation was excellent and the food was very good, if a little challenging for children. We would go again ??

A perfect trip for young families to immerse themselves in a different culture so close to Europe . Lots of adventure in the desert, mountain and beach, while being completely in safe hands with Hicham, our wonderful guide, and our driver.
