There is not too much left of the famous port city, but it is a convenient gateway to Chefchaouen, which is the most charming place to spend a night anywhere in Morocco.

Detailed Description
Morocco is not a sightseeing powerhouse. You do not need to spend hours meandering between attractions to experience what the city provides. Morocco is alive in its old-world atmosphere, and you can feel and live out the tradition just by sitting on a balcony and absorbing all the sounds and smells. Here, you can travel slowly and absorb four very different imperial cities in just one week of travel. Handcrafted for senior travelers, this one-week luxury tour will lead you behind the scenes in five exceptional destinations with local guides that lead the way to exotic atmospheres while providing intriguing narratives.
Over seven days, you will travel from the far north to Morocco’s heart with stops at all four imperial cities. You will fly to Tangier and begin your laid-back adventure with a night in Chefchaouen, which is an ancient mountain town where all the streets are painted shades of blue. It is a miraculous sight and will prove an easy way to be introduced to the local culture before experiencing the big souks and walled cities. Fabulous Roman ruins will mark your journey to Meknes, which is the most artisanal of the old cities and a place where every building is like a gallery and each street a journey through color.
Fes is the largest of the old cities, and you will be staying deep within the city walls and enveloped by a vibrant range of smells, sounds, and sights. You will be able to feel the ambiance at every turn. On day four, you will make a short stop in Rabat, which is home to a charming town and contemporary world outlook, before continuing to Casablanca. Here, the Hassan II Mosque is a building worthy of comparison to any of the world’s most iconic religious structures.
Marrakech will be your final stop, and it is a city of glowing red sandstone and enigmatic souks. Here, tradition seems to imbue every corner. From storytellers to drummers and from its Jewish Quarter to its Islamic schools, Marrakech preserves its old-world harmony. For two nights, you will be staying in a converted palace, where you will be immersed in a realm of five-century-old designs. With two days, you can discover most of the city’s highlights without giving up on the laid-back pace that defines your one-week Morocco tour. While the sights are many, this is a country of endearing architecture, a charming culture, and delicious cuisine.

Our introduction to Morocco greatly exceeded any expectations due to the care and planning taken by my agent at this travel company. I don't believe a detail overlooked during our 11 day, private tour that began in Casa Blanca and included stays in Rabat, Chefchaouen, the amazing city of Fès, an overnight in the Sahara Desert that included a camel ride in and out of the camp, a relaxing stay in the Dades Valley, and finally the bustling, hustling city of Marrakech.
The dining venues that were included during our visit were always fabulous. We never had one bad meal or experience at any of the places that were selected for us.
Our driver was awesome as were the guides that met us in each of the cities/villages we visited. It made such a difference to have the expertise of each individual we had the opportunity to engage with. Each one offered to help us in any way they could to make our stay more comfortable.
The value for our experience also exceeded my expectations. The quality of the Riads, hotels, guides, meals, car/driver, activities and all the attention to details were of the highest caliber.
My agent communicated with me regularly, listened to my needs and custom designed our trip to meet not only my financial goals but my desire to truly experience the beautiful country of Morocco.
I would highly recommend anyone to work with this company for a true Moroccan experience.

The Best of Morocco
I have travelled all over the world and I have to say that this is one of the best trip I’ve ever had.
Ziccaso! Yes you surprise me every time I choose new place to explore by linking me to best companies that can accommodate everything I want to experience!! Thank you for choosing this travel company, which is the best of the best.
I have decided to go to Morocco last minute and Mr. Hassan has accommodated my requests in a short time with a very impressive trip in all means!
He contacted me and asked me about everything I am looking for in this trip and made it just right to what I like.
The trip was arranged in a very short time and despite that he was very helpful, honest and true with everything he suggested and arranged.
To be honest the trip was way beyond my expectations.
Morocco is a very beautiful country, the people are so kind and welcoming always with a smile. It is very colorful and the food is really delicious and cooked with love everywhere. The weather was just right in March everywhere. Hotels and transportations were exceptional in all means.
I started my tour with my tour guide who was carefully chosen by Mr Hassan to take care of me. I have to say that he made the trip perfect with his honesty, caring, calming attitude, patience, and kindness. Since he picked me up from the airport to the last day he dropped off without any trouble or complaint. I felt like a princess and didn’t worry about anything during my trip. He took care of everything including checking in, baggage handling, transportation, taking everywhere and some walking and guiding tours, literally everything! I was really lucky.
Mr. Hassan was checking on me with directly during the trip and making sure the his brilliant arrangements were going well with me. I can’t thank him enough for arranging this incredible unforgettable tour.
My tour was fast lane tour, you can choose that if you like to sleep in a new place every night. I don’t mind that so that I can see and experience more things in a short time and got to visit many places too. The lovely thing about this tour it was by driving which I got to pass through many cities and villages and explore the rich culture and meet new people.
Morocco is old, vintage and charming. It has a lovely vibe. Casablanca is beautiful and coastal in which I started my journey, then I visited Rabat which is the capital ( very net and nice ). After that we went to Meknes and Fes ( my favorite old city). Then we went to Sahara OMG it was so charming. After that I have to say I saw all types of mountains in this country and the journey was very comfortable and relaxing. I went then to Marrakech which is very alive city and to Essaouira for a day tour and was lovely.
At the last day I was really sad to leave .. I felt that I left a part of my heart in this country. I can’t wait to visit Morocco again and see the few remaining places that I haven’t been to.
I would like to share some pictures and I actually created albums in my instagrams to show people the hidden gems of this wonderful country.
Thank you again Mr Hassan and to my guide for making my dream trip unforgettable.

Our trip to Morocco was absolutely perfect from start to finish. Our driver was excellent and an excellent companion throughout the journey—reliable, friendly, and always helpful.
The guided tour through the medina in Marrakech with our guide was a standout experience, especially with the bonus of dining at a fantastic restaurant he recommended. Two major highlights of the trip were the unforgettable hot-air balloon ride and our magical night in the desert.
Although our time in Casablanca was brief, we thoroughly enjoyed it. Our guide in Rabat was knowledgeable and made the experience engaging and informative. We ended our trip in the stunning town of Chefchaouen, where another guide provided an exceptional tour—he was informative and passionate about his city.
The accommodations were perfect at every stop, and we truly appreciated the welcome gifts and meals provided by Zicasso's travel specialist and his team. Their attention to detail made all the difference.
I would highly recommend him and his company to anyone planning a trip to Morocco. It was an unforgettable experience that I will be sharing with friends and family for years to come.

My wife Doris and I and a couple close friends spent 12 days in Morocco late October-early November 2022. We planned the trip with Jaouad of this travel company. Deciding on the itinerary was an iterative process which took multiple 4 or 5 way emails and phone calls before settling on the final plan. We decided we wanted to avoid long driving times so chose not to go to the desert. Our itinerary took us to Casablanca, Marrakesh, the High Atlas Mountains, Fez, Chefchaouen, Tangier and Rabat. We had a fascinating and stimulating trip which gave us an excellent sampling of many of the major attractions of this diverse and inviting country. We walked away with a deeper appreciation of the multi-ethnic Arab, Amazigh, Andalusian and Jewish cultures in Morocco. Working with Jaouad was a pleasure. He is extremely knowledgeable, helpful and accommodating and takes the time to understand his clients' needs and desires. The guides he selected were top notch. Our driver who accompanied us throughout the entire trip was very reliable, personable and friendly. He went out of his way to solve problems and ensure our safety and satisfaction. Through his stories and anecdotes, we achieved a deeper understanding of some of the prevalent attitudes and perspectives of the people of the country. Our trip to Morocco was a mixture of novel experiences and sensations and luxury and comfort. In the Medina of Marrakesh and Fez, one encounters a riot of colors, sounds, tastes and smells and then one retreats to the tranquility and calm of a beautiful Riad. The program was highly curated yet flexible and adaptable to the whims and vagaries of the group. As is often the case, I came away with the sense that I learned a great deal but only scratched the surface of what this complex and varied country has to offer.
