Overview
Morocco’s four imperial cities and its finest royal courses come together in the 10 Days Golf Tour from Fes Across Morocco’s Imperial Cities. The route opens with golf and the medina of Fes, visits imperial Meknes and the Roman ruins of Volubilis, and plays the Royal Golf Dar Es Salam in Rabat and an ocean course near Casablanca.
The second half of this imperial cities golf tour settles in Marrakech, with rounds facing the High Atlas, a sunset in the Agafay Desert and a day in the Ourika Valley. Private and unhurried, it is the ideal golf holiday for travelers who want Morocco’s culture without long desert drives.

Itinerary
Day 1
Arrival in Fes ⇢ Hotel Transfer
At Fes-Saïss Airport, about 20 minutes from the city, a private driver collects you and your clubs for the transfer to your riad or hotel, the start of the Imperial Cities Golf Tour. The rest of the day is free to settle in.
In the evening, a rooftop terrace above the medina offers a first view over the old city as the call to prayer echoes across its minarets.
Day 2
Morning Golf ⇢ Evening Fes City Tour
The morning round is played at the Royal Golf de Fès, laid out among olive groves on the edge of the city with views of the Middle Atlas foothills. Its wide fairways and well-kept greens suit golfers of all levels.
In the afternoon, a licensed guide leads you into Fes el-Bali, the world’s largest car-free medieval city and a UNESCO World Heritage Site: the Bou Inania Madrasa, the Al Quaraouiyine, founded in 859, the Chouara Tannery and the souks of copper, leather and ceramics.
Day 3
Fes ⇢ Meknes City Tour ⇢ Volubilis ⇢ Rabat
In Meknes, the imperial city of Sultan Moulay Ismail, a guided visit takes in the tiled Bab Mansour gate, the royal granaries and the lively Place el-Hedim. Nearby, Volubilis preserves Roman mosaics and the Triumphal Arch of Caracalla among olive groves.
The road then reaches the Atlantic at Rabat, the royal capital, for two nights.
Day 4
Morning Golf ⇢ Rabat City Tour
The morning round is played at the Royal Golf Dar Es Salam, designed by Robert Trent Jones Sr. among cork oaks, lakes and flowering gardens, and home of the Hassan II Trophy.
In the afternoon, a guided tour of the royal capital takes in the 12th-century Hassan Tower, the marble Mausoleum of Mohammed V and the blue-and-white lanes of the Kasbah of the Udayas above the river mouth.
Day 5
Rabat ⇢ Casablanca ⇢ Afternoon Golf
An hour down the coast, Casablanca offers an afternoon round near the ocean, where sea breezes and firm fairways test every shot. The evening is free for a seafront dinner on the Corniche.
Day 6
Casablanca City Tour ⇢ Hassan II Mosque ⇢ Marrakech
The morning begins at the Hassan II Mosque, built partly over the Atlantic with a 210 m minaret, followed by a walk through the arcaded Habous quarter and the Art Deco city centre. The motorway then leads south to Marrakech, about 3 hours away.
Day 7
Morning Golf ⇢ Evening Marrakech City Tour
A morning round among palm and olive groves, with the snow-capped High Atlas on the horizon, shows why Marrakech is Morocco’s golf capital.
In the afternoon, a licensed guide leads you through the red city: the Koutoubia Mosque, the Bahia Palace, the Saadian Tombs and the souks, ending in the square of Jemaa el-Fnaa as the food stalls light up.
Day 8
Morning Golf ⇢ Agafay Desert Sunset
A second round in Marrakech, on a different course among olive groves, is followed by a relaxed afternoon. About 40 km from the city, the stony Agafay Desert offers ochre hills facing the Atlas, mint tea, an optional camel ride and a spectacular sunset.
Day 9
Marrakech ⇢ Atlas Mountains ⇢ Ourika Valley ⇢ Marrakech
A day in the High Atlas follows the Ourika Valley, about an hour from Marrakech, past Berber villages, terraced fields and riverside cafés. A short walk leads to the Setti Fatma waterfalls, before lunch by the river and the return to Marrakech.
Day 10
Morning Golf (if time permits) ⇢ Departure from Marrakech
Depending on your flight, a last morning round closes the trip, before a private transfer to Marrakech Menara Airport.
