Overview

Golf in Morocco is at its most extraordinary when the round is followed by a journey few golf holidays can offer, and the 7 Days Golf Tour From Marrakech pairs the fairways of the red city with the kasbahs, gorges and dunes of the south. After a morning round and a guided tour in Marrakech, the road crosses the High Atlas to Ait Ben Haddou, follows the Valley of Roses and the Dades Gorges, and reaches the Sahara for a camel trek and a night in a desert camp.

From the dunes of Erg Chebbi, this golf and desert tour in Morocco climbs north through the Ziz Valley and the cedar forests of Ifrane to the imperial city of Fes, where a final round or a visit to the medina closes the trip. One-way, private and carefully paced, it is the ideal Marrakech to Fes golf tour for golfers who want to see the real Morocco between rounds.

Highlights

Itinerary

Day 1

Arrival in Marrakech ⇢ Hotel Transfer

A private driver meets you and your clubs at Marrakech Menara Airport for the transfer to your hotel, the first stop of the 7 Days Golf Tour From Marrakech. The rest of the day is free to rest and enjoy the city.

In the evening, the square of Jemaa el-Fnaa fills with musicians, storytellers and food stalls, a lively start to the week.

Day 2

Morning Golf ⇢ Evening Marrakech City Tour

An early tee time offers cool air and clear views of the snow-capped High Atlas above the palm trees. Marrakech’s courses combine wide fairways, water hazards and fast greens, with caddies available to guide your round.

In the afternoon, a licensed guide leads you to the Koutoubia Mosque, the Bahia Palace, the Saadian Tombs and the souks, finishing at Jemaa el-Fnaa as night falls.

Day 3

Marrakech ⇢ Tizi n'Tichka ⇢ Ait Ben Haddou ⇢ Ouarzazate

The road climbs into the High Atlas past Berber villages and walnut groves to the Tizi n’Tichka pass at 2,260 m, Morocco’s highest paved road. On the southern side, Ait Ben Haddou rises in layers of mud-brick towers, a UNESCO-listed ksar seen in Gladiator and Game of Thrones.

The day ends in Ouarzazate, the gateway to the Sahara, where the Taourirt Kasbah and the film studios recall its role as “the Hollywood of Africa”.

Day 4

Ouarzazate ⇢ Skoura ⇢ Valley of Roses ⇢ Dades Gorges

The Road of a Thousand Kasbahs leads through the Skoura palm oasis, dotted with old family kasbahs, and Kelaat M’Gouna, the Valley of Roses, where Damask roses are distilled into rose water each spring.

In the afternoon, the road enters the Dades Gorges, where red cliffs and rock formations line a famous hairpin road, glowing in the evening light.

Day 5

Dades ⇢ Todra Gorge ⇢ Merzouga ⇢ Desert Camp

Morning brings the palm grove of Tinghir and Todra Gorge, where limestone walls rise up to 300 m above a clear stream. After a walk through the narrows, the road crosses the hamada to Merzouga.

In the late afternoon, a camel caravan carries you into the dunes of Erg Chebbi for sunset, followed by dinner, Berber drums and a night in a desert camp, the most memorable evening of this golf and desert tour in Morocco.

Day 6

Merzouga ⇢ Ziz Valley ⇢ Midelt ⇢ Ifrane ⇢ Fes

Sunrise over the dunes is followed by the drive north along the palm-filled Ziz Valley and through the Ziz Gorges to Midelt. The road then climbs into the Middle Atlas to Ifrane, the “Switzerland of Morocco”, and its cedar forests, home to Barbary macaques.

In the evening you arrive in Fes, the oldest of Morocco’s imperial cities.

Day 7

Morning Golf or Fes Medina ⇢ Departure

The final morning of this Marrakech to Fes golf tour offers a choice: a round on a course in the hills around Fes, or a guided visit of the medina, with the Bou Inania Madrasa, the Al Quaraouiyine and the Chouara Tannery.

Afterwards, a private transfer takes you to Fes-Saïss Airport or your hotel.
