If you crave adventure, this Moroccan vacation is for you. It begins and ends in Humphrey Bogart's Casablanca and travels via the Barbary Coast to Rabat, where a visit to the fortified Kasbah of Oudaias is included. Continue to the second imperial city of Meknes with its monumental gates and city walls, then to Fez to visit Morocco's largest medina. Your tour winds through the Middle Atlas mountain range and spectacular Ziz Gorges to Er-Rachidia of French Foreign Legion fame. Next, travel through stony deserts to Erfoud and holy Rissani, gateway to the Sahara Desert, followed by a thrilling experience: a visit to the colorful Souks, the desert tribe's market where Tuareg, Berber, and Blue People meet and animatedly swap silver jewelry and rugs for vegetables, salt and other goods. Leave Erfoud and travel to one of Morocco's most impressive natural sights: Todra Gorge. Next is Ouarzazate, known for its film studios, where you will tour the Taourirt Kasbah and marvel at the outstanding views of the fortified town and valley. In Marrakesh, enjoy a carriage ride, stroll through the exquisite Yves Saint Laurent Gardens, and visit Menara Park, Bahia Palace, and the elaborately decorated 16th-century Saadian Tombs. Finally, enjoy a full day at leisure to enjoy this "pink city" before returning to Casablanca for the conclusion of your grand Morocco vacation.
