Trip level explained

Level 1

Easy

This is a light physical adventure. While there are some active activities, few are particularly strenuous. The longest hike is a 7-mile distance with 1,312 ft elevation gain and loss which is suitable for anyone with basic fitness levels, and capable of walking for a few hours. There are plenty of stops with a long picnic and rest at the falls to relax and recharge for the hike back down. Your rock climbing instructor will talk you through how to start, so no prior experience is needed here, just a sense of adventure. All physical activities can also be opted out of if you're not keen on giving them a go.

What if i need to skip an activity?

All physical activities can also be opted out of if you're not interested in trying them.

What will I need to carry?

You'll need to have a larger bag suitable for all your belongings which will be transported for you, and then a small daypack to carry personal items during each day of exploring.

Hot climate: factors to consider

This trip operates in areas where daytime temperatures can reach extreme levels, with limited shade and, at times, high humidity adding to the challenge. These conditions can affect physical performance and increase the risk of dehydration or heat-related illness. Your guide will adjust the pace and monitor the group closely, but staying well hydrated, wearing suitable clothing, and using sun protection is essential.

Before traveling, consider your ability to remain active in high temperatures and consult a medical professional if you have any concerns, especially if you have cardiovascular or heat-sensitive conditions. Arriving a day or two before the trip may help you adjust gradually to the heat.

Remote environment: factors to consider

Some parts of this trip take place in areas where access to medical facilities and emergency services may be limited. This may mean that reaching medical care takes longer than you might normally expect, or that local medical facilities have fewer resources than those you may be used to at home.

If someone becomes unwell or injured, initial treatment may be provided locally before onward travel to a larger hospital or city for further care. Evacuation could involve changing the planned route or using different forms of transportation to reach appropriate medical facilities. Mobile phone coverage may also be intermittent in some locations.

Your guide is trained to manage situations in remote environments and will monitor the group and respond appropriately if any issues arise. However, it’s important that you let your guide know straight away if you feel unwell or experience any health concerns during the trip.

Before booking, consider your personal health and ability to travel in locations where access to medical care may be delayed. If you have any pre-existing medical conditions or concerns, we recommend seeking advice from a medical professional and discussing them with your host before traveling.

All travelers must have suitable travel insurance that covers the activities included in the trip and emergency medical evacuation if required.

  • Jaime S.

    This trip would have been twice the price + triple the headaches to have organized on my own. . . and I would have missed out on invaluable language learning + cultural opportunities that are only possible when traveling with locals. Ismail + Hasan's insights, expertise + laughter were worth the price of admission alone! They knew all the best spots just far enough off the beaten path for an experience of a lifetime. We also got to see the major sites with insider tips + knowledgeable extra guides (Mgid at Volubilis was especially great!) Their patience, hospitality + generosity were truly showing the values of their Amazigh people. As far as what we did, the MBA itinerary is very accurate. It was a great mix of mazey medinas, vast vistas, + plenty of road time for napping or language learning (in my case). Warning: You will fall in love with this country if you aren't careful! We ate meals with and had tea with several native Moroccan families which were the hands-down highlight for me. The group I traveled with was just what a I needed in my first solo group travel. I've never laughed so hard + felt so much like family with a group of total strangers by the time we reached Marrakech. The varied travel + life experiences, as well as accents, made the experience of Morocco even more unique. If you are thinking about Morocco in any way, this is the trip for you! ⵜⴰⵏⵎⵎⵉⵔⵜ

    Came into this as my first guided tour with strangers and think I've found a new addiction. Loved the people I was grouped with, and the tour guide and driver were fantastic - fully packed itinerary and a week to be remembered.

  • Jessica C.

    Our guide Ismail and driver Hussain exceeded every expectation. We were given access to experiences and locations we never would have discovered on our own or in a larger group, and Ismail's knowledge and humour made the trip truly special. The itinerary was fully delivered — plus thoughtful extras — and we left feeling genuinely sad to say goodbye. It was a privilege to have this experience and we will definitely be travelling with much better adventures again!

    We had an amazing time in Morocco. The trip was full of diverse experiences and was well organised. We enjoyed all of the 'adventure' activities and our guide Ismail and driver Hassan were both brilliant. If you want to see Morocco and all of the varied experiences that you wouldn't get with a trip by yourself then join Much Better Adventures. We also had a lovely group, who were friendly and fun. We would definitely do another MBA trip and already looking at the other offerings!

  • Jane S.

    We saw so much of this wonderful country during Ramadan which felt like a proper privilege. We learnt about the people, history, politics, religion and interesting facts from the guides. We saw storks, eagles, hundreds of wild cats and dogs, and Barbary macaques. We learnt about leather tanning; carding wool for rugs; spinning thread for scarves; how silverware was created; how Moroccan ceramics and tiles are created; invisible ink painting; visited film sets where Game of Thrones and Gladiator were filme and watched the sunrise in the Sahara and sunset in the Blue City. Our driver and guide were just lovely humans - kind and calm and nothing was too much trouble. The group was fun and friendly. Delicious food everywhere, good accommodation, fantastic night in the desert, city and souk tours excellent, great hikes, swam near waterfall, stopped-off to learn about argan oil and rose products and other Moroccan produce. Would recommend this trip to anyone who wants to see more of this beautiful country and not just Marrakech. We were exhausted when we got home because we'd seen and experienced so much and our senses were buzzing. We felt like we'd been away for a month not 10 days. All-round excellent trip.

  • Mark B.

    A superb introduction to Morocco, it's people culture and history. In the desert and the mountains. Only 1 tiny hiccup at the hotel on first night when the staff there were not aware of our booking and we had no booking reference. Otherwise fantastic. Special thanks to guide Ismail and driver Hassan who made it work like clockwork.

  • Christine T.

    This wasn't just a trip; it was a deeply immersive cultural experience in Morocco that completely surpassed my expectations. The itinerary felt thoughtfully and intentionally curated, designed not just for sightseeing, but to genuinely connect us with the country's diverse culture, breathtaking landscapes, and the rhythm of daily life. The diversity of experiences was truly memorable and perfectly balanced: we spent days navigating the labyrinthine alleys of ancient medinas, hiking along stunning mountain trails in the Atlas, rock climbing in the Todra Gorge and witnessing the profound silence of the desert views. The journey felt like a perfectly paced narrative, balanced in a way that kept the entire journey engaging without ever feeling rushed. The true soul of this journey was our guide, Mohamed, who was far more than a logistical organizer; he was an unparalleled source of knowledge, professionalism, patience, and genuine care. His profound insights brought every site to life, and he consistently went the extra mile to ensure every single person felt comfortable and genuinely cared for, making the entire experience feel personal and incredibly well-supported. Our driver, Bujemaa, was always on time and made sure we got everywhere quickly and safely. He even coordinated all our airport drop-offs, which made the end of the trip so much easier. His professionalism, reliability, and willingness to show us places beyond the planned itinerary really stood out. The value and organization of the entire trip were exceptional. Trying to replicate an experience this smooth, rich, and seamlessly planned on our own, especially for the same cost, would be impossible. I’d highly recommend this tour and can’t wait to plan my next adventure with MBA.

  • William M.

    Our trip to Morocco was nothing short of phenomenal. From the moment we landed, it was clear this wasn’t going to be a typical tour—it was an expertly crafted experience that blended adventure, culture, and connection in a way we never could’ve pulled off on our own. Our guide, Mohammad, was the heartbeat of the entire journey. His knowledge, patience, humor, and absolute command of every detail took this trip from great to extraordinary. He navigated our group through cities, mountains, deserts, and hidden local gems with the ease of someone who genuinely loves what he does. At every stop he added context, stories, and insight that made Morocco come alive. We couldn’t have asked for a better leader—he was outstanding in every sense. The itinerary was jam-packed in the best possible way. Every day felt like a new chapter of a once-in-a-lifetime story: hiking through dramatic landscapes, exploring ancient medinas, sharing meals that ruined us for all future couscous, and experiencing moments that will stay with us forever. It was the perfect balance of adventure and immersion, and not a single day felt wasted or slow. And the value? Unbeatable. There is absolutely no scenario where we could have assembled a trip this smooth, this organized, and this rich in experiences for anywhere close to the price. The logistics alone—transportation, lodging, meals, activities—would have been overwhelming without the expertise behind this itinerary. Our group was another highlight. A collection of people from different places and backgrounds who quickly felt like friends. We laughed, pushed through challenges, shared unforgettable moments, and ended the trip as a tight-knit team. In every category—guiding, planning, value, adventure—this trip crushed our expectations. If you’re considering it, stop thinking and book it. You will not regret it. Morocco is magical, and with a guide like Mohammad and an itinerary like this, it becomes the adventure of a lifetime.

At every stop he added context, stories, and insight that made Morocco come alive. We couldn’t have asked for a better leader—he was outstanding in every sense. The itinerary was jam-packed in the best possible way. Every day felt like a new chapter of a once-in-a-lifetime story: hiking through dramatic landscapes, exploring ancient medinas, sharing meals that ruined us for all future couscous, and experiencing moments that will stay with us forever. It was the perfect balance of adventure and immersion, and not a single day felt wasted or slow. And the value? Unbeatable. There is absolutely no scenario where we could have assembled a trip this smooth, this organized, and this rich in experiences for anywhere close to the price. The logistics alone—transportation, lodging, meals, activities—would have been overwhelming without the expertise behind this itinerary. Our group was another highlight. A collection of people from different places and backgrounds who quickly felt like friends. We laughed, pushed through challenges, shared unforgettable moments, and ended the trip as a tight-knit team. In every category—guiding, planning, value, adventure—this trip crushed our expectations. If you’re considering it, stop thinking and book it. You will not regret it. Morocco is magical, and with a guide like Mohammad and an itinerary like this, it becomes the adventure of a lifetime.

  • Let’s start with the positives:

    Ella W. September 2025
    Let’s start with the positives: when you book with MBA, you're buying into a community of like-minded, adventurous people. The group I travelled with was fantastic, that aspect of the experience was gold. However, the trip itself fell short in several areas. The itinerary was not delivered as advertised. The walking tour in Chefchaouen didn’t happen, included meals were skipped, Some scheduled stops on drive days were extremely brief c. 5–10 minutes, limiting the chance to explore. Accommodation standards varied. Some hotels lacked air con, which was challenging given the climate. Meal times were impersonal, shared with multiple tour groups in large tourist venues (including the homestay). This undermined the sense of cultural immersion and left the experience feeling more like a package tour with the feeling of being on a conveyor belt than allowing any genuine connection with the destination.

  • Brilliant with room for improvement

    Nicholas H. May 2025
    I'll start with the negatives and close with the many, many positives that massively outweigh them. Negatives The hotel in Casablanca is just plain bad. To make a first impression, it's a poor start. It's been mentioned in other reviews and was spoken about in my group, it's not nice. Rooms are small, outdated and looks like it's 20 years overdue for a change of carpet and bathrooms. It can't be hard to find somewhere better. I appreciate Tinghir isn't on the tourist trail, so hotels are limited, but it wasn't the best hotel - particularly for single occupancy (it's a makeshift extension on a roof). The activity of climbing, if cancelled, is replaced by cycling. More options could be offered, like walking, or just to relax with your group rather than feel pressured into a cycle activity for experienced/expert riders. Some hotels change to what is advertised, depending on what's available, so don't pin your hopes on the advert. Tipping: be more upfront. Yes, about tipping for your tour leader is on the ad/itinerary, but advising about tips for your driver and then the 350dh for included meals/visits needs to be made clear before arriving in Morocco so you can budget for it. Positives Everything else. It's absolutely epic! There is no way I could have seen and done all that was included on my own. It's a stunning and beautiful country. Yes, some of the hotels could be better (definitely the two mentioned above that were poor) but they were fine for where you were. Our team leader, Ismail, was brilliant, funny, considerate, knowledgeable and a bundle of energy. I couldn't have asked for a better group and leader for this tour. The desert was simply beautiful, for sunset and sunrise. Something I'll never forget. I would've loved a chance to dune board, so maybe there's something to add, but I'm nitpicking (it's a bucket list activity). Chefchaouen was very pretty and you'll figure out the quieter spots to get your photos but it does match what you're imagining. The walk up to the Spanish mosque for sunset is special. While there are long drives, the stops along the way to connect with your group are what you cherish. Share and take photos of each other, joke around, talk and support one another. (I've made one photo book purely dedicated to this incredible group I was with). The visits to families and fresh/home-cooked meals are gems. Yes, you'll joke about endless tagine but it's delicious, especially with mint tea. Constant statements of "this is my favourite meal"! A few of the places you'll visit and want to buy from from - ceramics, rugs, oils - will take card or ship international, so you don't have to always worry about cash and bartering. Everything about this trip exceeded expectations. It's a breathtaking country, full of beauty. Embrace it, enjoy it, book it. I'd certainly return, especially for more time in Marrakech. A long weekend, perhaps, in autumn/winter or early spring.

  • Incredible Morocco Journey – A Beautiful Blend of Culture, Nature & Hospitali

    Nati S. May 2025
    Each destination offered something unique, and our guides were knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate. Every moment felt thoughtfully curated, from tea with nomad families to relaxing in a local hammam. Highly recommended for anyone seeking an immersive, well-rounded Moroccan experience full of culture, nature, and heartfelt connections.

  • My first group trip and definitely not my last

    Hannah M. May 2025
    This trip was everything I could have asked for! My travel group was amazing — we got along so well that we were already joking about where we're going together next year. There was quite a bit of driving between destinations, but that’s really the only way to see everything. At times, I felt a bit pressured to buy things at some of the markets, and there were moments when the directions or instructions from our tour leader could have been clearer. That said, he was very kind and thoughtful. He even surprised me with a birthday cake during the trip, which was such a sweet gesture and made my day really special. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and a birthday I’ll never forget. I can’t wait for the next adventure! :)

  • An incredible adventure & first group trip

    Anne K. May 2025
    What an adventure! This trip covered a lot of ground- a lot of driving for sure, but that’s necessary to see so much of the country! This was my first group tour and certainly won’t be my last— everyone was so incredibly welcoming and fun, and we’ve already started discussing a reunion trip! Our leader Abdullah and driver Hassan were great- felt safe and supported at all times, and were a wealth of information about local Moroccan culture. Highlights for me included wandering the blue city of Chefchaouen, visiting “Moroccan Switzerland,” learning all about local indigenous Amazigh culture, and the camel ride in the Sahara! One thing to note- many of the places we stop at throughout the tour for shopping are on the more expensive side (i. e. the pottery place, the rug place, the tanneries)— most of the same stuff is available in the Medina in Marrakech, for much cheaper! I’d recommend saving all your shopping for then. I’m glad I had an extra day to explore Marrakech after the tour too- would definitely recommend doing that if you can swing it!

  • I would recommend

    Ruth F. May 2025
    I enjoyed the trip. It was definitely “easy”. The way it’s advertised makes it seem like there’s more hiking than there is, but I suspected that when I read the itinerary. On some days it’s walking around the towns and villages. There’s only two hikes: the hike around Akchour Falls near Chefchouen and the one in the Todra Gorge. Both were highlights for me. I was happy with the level of difficulty… or non difficulty rather! Personally I also really enjoyed the night and morning sunrise in the Sahara, camel ride, hammam experience and outdoor rock climbing 🧗🏼‍♀️. It is of course is a lot of time on the bus but there are many stops to see things on the way. There was a bit of confusion over tips. On the trip I realised more was required if tipping the full expected amount which would be at least 1200 MAD to do all general tips plus driver plus local guide. For me that was about half my spending money - I didn’t buy much except food and a few small things. It’s worth MBA making this very clear so people can prepare correctly.

  • This was a 'could be better adventure' for me

    Courtney W. May 2025
    I enjoyed a lot of this trip including seeing a lot of Morocco with a great group of people, and a nice driver and guide. A few key changes could have made this a much better adventure - mainly around the info provided on the webpage and over the course of the tour. 1. The accommodation varied on the actual itinerary vs what was advertised. You don't stay in a riad at all, and the first hotel, Al Walid Hotel in Casablanca is of a very low standard, much worse than everything else over the course of the tour and sets a bad first impression of what your next 9-10 days will be like. Update the trip page to reflect the accurate details and please consider changing the first hotel that this group tour stays in. 2. The guide who accompanied us over the course of the trip was lovely and kept us on schedule. He did a couple of awesome things like stopping on the side of the road so we could buy fresh oranges and bread. However, someone who was more enthusiastic and forthcoming about local information (places, culture, history, language) would be more in line with what our group expected or would have liked. 3. Tipping culture is new to me, and the way this works on our trip was not well explained in the section under 'Not included' on the trip page. Yes, the guideline of 50 MAD per person, per day is true, but MBA should update this to say this doesn't include the tip for the tour or the driver. Our guide asked us each for 400 MAD at the beginning of the trip to tip restaurants, local guides, hotel staff etc, and then it became clear toward our last day that this didn't include a tip for him and the driver. If this is correct, update the trip page to reflect this amount, and guide people that the driver+guide tips, if people want to give these, are separate. 4. Be transparent on your website that people who go on tours are incentivised with the opportunity to win a £500 voucher for their reviews.

  • MBA a Wonderful Adventure

    Michael S. March 2025
    What a fantastic adventure/experience we had with Mohammad (Mo) Bensaid. He is indeed a true professional. Every day he went the extra mile to make our days better, nothing was an effort for him. This holiday has a lot of traveling in it, this was well flagged beforehand, but you cannot see this wonderful country without this travel, thank you Khalid for your expert driving skills. The travel allows you to see many aspects of the country and the culture of its people. Ours was a mixed group where most of the people had never met before our trip but everyone gelled very well together. At all times I felt safe on this trip, I would happily recommend this company for your visit to Morocco.

  • First trip with MBA and

    Anthony S. February 2025
    First trip with MBA and will certainly look to use them again. Mo was an excellent guide and enabled a packed and varied trip which felt an authentic experience of Morocco without following the tourist trap trail.

  • Amazing experience!

    Christine B. January 2025
    From the moment we arrived, our guide was exceptional—knowledgeable, friendly, and always eager to share insights about the country’s rich history, culture, and traditions. His passion for Morocco was contagious and added a personal touch to the entire journey. The tour was perfectly balanced, offering both the excitement of exploring bustling cities and the tranquility of Morocco’s rural landscapes. We spent time in vibrant cities like Marrakech and Fes, where we wandered through maze-like souks and bazaars, bargaining for textiles, and unique handicrafts. The energy of these markets was captivating, and our guide helped us navigate the labyrinth with ease, pointing out hidden gems and explaining the significance of the items on display. But the trip didn’t stop in the cities. We also ventured into Morocco’s breathtaking rural areas. A highlight was a day spent hiking in the Atlas Mountains, where the views were absolutely stunning. The peacefulness of the mountains, paired with the adventure of the trek, was a perfect contrast to the lively atmosphere of the cities. We also had the chance to ride camels across the Sahara, watching the sunset over the endless sand dunes—a moment of pure magic. Overall, this tour was the ideal mix of urban exploration, cultural immersion, and outdoor adventure. Whether it was exploring ancient medinas, shopping in lively bazaars, or getting lost in the beauty of Morocco’s natural landscapes, the journey was an incredible way to experience the best of this diverse and fascinating country. Highly recommended!

  • Fast-Paced, but Rewarding Adventure!

    Verity D. December 2024
    My sister and I really enjoyed our 10-day trip across Morocco! We loved the variety of locations, activities, and opportunities to immerse ourselves in the culture (we especially loved the desert camp in the Sahara). Our group and guide were fantastic, which made the trip that much more enjoyable and memorable. We'll be talking about it for years to come!

  • I was excited to join

    Hilary P. December 2024
    I was excited to join on this adventure. I looked over all the photos and read the itinerary several times imagining how amazing it would be but, I must say, the actual trip far exceeded my expectations. Not only was it a great mix of different kinds of activities and places in Morocco but there were so many more little things I was delighted by like stopping on the roadside to get the first oranges of the season, the van filling with the smell of fresh citrus, seeing monkeys or eating fresh baked cookies out of a wood fired oven after a long hike. Hamid was a gracious, enthusiastic tour guide who went over-and-beyond to make our trip fun, enlightening and connective. He was more than happy to answer any questions about his culture, teach us Arabic, help with handicraft purchases and even order a birthday cake! I always felt safe and comfortable and absolutely fell in love with the land and people of Morocco. I will definitely be looking at more Much Better Adventures and I will be back to Morocco. The only thing I did not like was having to leave at the end. I wanted to buy a motorcycle and 20 sheep and stay forever. That sentiment speaks to just how well curated and facilitated this trip was.

  • Memorable adventure - book this trip!

    Andrea S. December 2024
    This was an amazing trip. Thank you to our knowledgeable and thoughtful guide, Hamid, and our driver, who orchestrated our tour experience across Morocco. The changing landscapes, culture, buildings and scenery were awesome. Some of the journeys were long but definitely manageable as they were interspersed by genuinely enjoyable authentic experiences which I was grateful to have had. Everyone in the group got along just fine and we moved around the minibus on each trip so everyone could enjoy the front seats. The treks were doable and enjoyable. The desert and camel ride was a memorable experience. Morocco is a wonderful country which I very much hope I can visit again soon.

  • Good trip hotels nice food

    Jacqueline d. December 2024
    Good trip hotels nice food ok needs a bit of atmosphere while on the mini bus because of the long journeys

  • Beautiful journey through Morocco

    Olga S. December 2024
    This trip was exactly what I imagined it to be and more, having wanted to visit Morocco for many years. It covered everything from stunning views, beautiful outdoors, moderate activities, history, culture and let's not forget about food! I felt safe and well looked after throughout the trip by the guide Hamid and the driver Mustafa. We stayed in a variety of accommodations including a riad in Fes which was my favourite. I wasn't confident I would be able to do well at the rock climbing but it turned out to be probably the best activity we did thanks to the great organisation and a lot of support from my travel companions. I'm really pleased that MBA opted to showcase the lesser known parts of Morocco at the expense of Marrakech which, in my opinion, faded in comparison to a much more authentic Fes. I felt like I truly got a good taste of what this country is about and I'll be keen to return in the near future. Definitely recommend!

  • Brilliant trip. Redouane was an excellent

    Angela L. November 2024
    Brilliant trip. Redouane was an excellent Guide and really took care of us. He was incredibly patient and calm. His advice was in valuable and his knowledge and connections really helped the trip run smoothly. Very diverse experiences with many highlights eg the Sahara, rock climbing and hiking. It is rated as easy but you do have to be relatively fit to get the most out of the trip. A trip of a lifetime for me. Brilliant and thanks Redouane.

  • An extraordinary adventure!!

    Emma C. August 2024
    Wow! Where do I start?! This trip is unbelievable! Before I launch into superlatives however, I will say 2 things....1 - There's a LOT of travelling (so make sure youre prepared for this and you're with a good group who understand the need for a leg stretch!) And 2 - it is NOT easy! The hikes are hard, the paths are a bit scrambly & you have to be reasonably fit (be ready to walk/trek about 10k in the Atlas mountains for example!) But that's it - with those warnings aside, the trip was stunning, fun, friendly, exciting and every day really was a learning day! Every single day was a highlight and Mohammed (our trip leader and guide) and Samir (driver) were incredible too! I couldn't recommend more! Thank you MBA - I'll be back for more trips soon for sure!

  • Amazing

    Brian W. August 2024
    This was an amazing blend of some traditional Moroccan tourism/culture combined with some active days. By the end of the trip we truly had all bonded. The mountain hike was gorgeous. The desert hike was gorgeous. The ravine hike and mountain biking were so fun. Our guide and driver were amazing.

FAQs

Tap water in Morocco is not safe to drink for travelers. The tour vehicle will have a large container of water that you can fill your water bottles from. Most hotels will also provide safe drinking water so single-use water bottles should not be needed. Please bring your own reusable water bottle to fill up throughout the trip.

As this trip starts in one city and ends in another, it's not logistically suitable to leave your luggage in Casablanca at the beginning. The tour vehicle will transport your luggage between each point of the trip.

Ramadan is an Islamic festival where the religious do not eat or drink during daylight hours. While this is a really interesting time to travel, especially to witness celebrations where the fast is broken in the evenings, you can expect some business hours will be shortened, alcohol is not permitted during daylight hours, and some restaurants will be closed during this festival period. Activities for local people tend to be limited during the day, and the nights are very active in cities with lots of different foods being sold and consumed. Ramadan will not affect the inclusions on your trip, although you should be aware that dinners will be served after locals break their fast in the evenings.

As Ramadan follows the lunar calendar, the dates change from year to year. We recommend checking whether your chosen trip dates fall during this period.

Morocco has a subtropical climate with temperatures between 64°F and 82°F, although they can soar to 95°F in the summer and fall to as low as 41°F in the winter. However, the weather varies from region to region due to the country's geographical setting. The eastern and southern regions are very dry and hot all year round as they are surrounded by the scorching Sahara Desert, while the Atlas Mountains, which snake from south to north and divide the country in half, make the climate in the center more extreme with unforgiving heat in the summer and freezing temperatures in the winter. This trip visits a big variety of Morocco's climatic regions which makes for a trip perfect for tackling any time of year.

We partner with the World Land Trust to ensure this trip achieves Net-Zero emissions. We also support their Buy an Acre program, helping local communities to buy and protect natural habitats in perpetuity.

What's the number?
It works out on average at 625kg of CO2 emissions per person, including all local transport, accommodation, food, activities, guides, staff and office operations.

The only thing it doesn’t include right now is flights and travel to the destination. We do make an overall estimate across all our customers separately, but as we don’t book flights, have customers from all corners of the world, and no way of reliably knowing their travel plans, we simply can’t include an individual number in the figure on display here. We’ve got a goal to fix that, so that when you book, there is a way to measure and mitigate the carbon emitted by your flight too.

But what does the number mean?
Yep, hard to picture eh? To give you an idea:

  • Driving 1000 miles/1609km would be approximately 281kg of CO2 in an average car (or 140.5kg per person, if there were two of you in it).
  • A return economy class flight between London and New York would be approximately 1619kg (1.66 tonnes) per person.
  • 10 trees in a temperate forest are estimated to remove approximately 250kg of CO2 from the air in a period of 5-10 years.

What are we doing about it?
Our trips are relatively low-carbon by design, and we're working with all our hosts to develop long term carbon reduction plans. We partner with the World Land Trust to ensure this trip achieves Net-Zero emissions. We also support their Buy an Acre programme, helping local communities to buy and protect natural habitats in perpetuity, ensuring the protection of the reserve and its wildlife.

Want to know more?
Amazingly, no international travel company has ever publicly published their carbon measurements before, as far as we know. We believe that must change, quickly. So we’re openly sharing the method we used in the hope that other companies will be able to more easily follow suit and build on what we've done so far. You'll find it all here.
