Departing from Fes, tours heavily emphasize history and dramatic landscapes, beginning with guided explorations of the city’s UNESCO-listed Medina—the largest in the world—and nearby ancient Roman ruins of Volubilis. The most popular extended excursions take travelers on a scenic journey through the Middle Atlas Mountains, past the cedar forests of Azrou, and down to the golden dunes of Merzouga for a night in a luxury desert camp.
