Morocco Magics: A Moroccan-Owned Tour Operator Based in Marrakech
Morocco Magics is registered and headquartered at 33 Sidi Bouloukat, Marrakech 40040, and operates tours across the whole of Morocco. The agency is 100% Moroccan-owned and staffed by local Amazigh (Berber) guides who work in the regions they come from.
Three things define how we operate:
- Local ownership. We are not a reseller. Our drivers, guides and camp partners are contracted directly, which is why itineraries can change mid-trip when weather or your pace requires it.
- Direct support during travel. Our Marrakech office is reachable throughout your trip, and every group has a named contact from airport pickup to departure.
- Community and environmental commitment. We work with locally owned riads and desert camps, and our Erg Chebbi camps operate on solar power with managed water and waste.

Our Morocco Tour Packages by Duration
Morocco tour length determines route shape, not just price. Trips under 5 days cover one region; trips of 7 days or more combine the desert with at least one imperial city; trips of 10 days or more cross the country without repeated backtracking.
Short Desert Tours: 2 to 4 Days
Short desert tours run from Marrakech to the Erg Chebbi dunes at Merzouga, crossing the High Atlas at the Tizi n'Tichka pass and stopping at Aït Benhaddou and the Dades or Todra gorges. Three days is the minimum for a genuine Sahara night — the drive is 8 to 9 hours each way.
Classic Morocco Tours: 7 to 8 Days
Classic tours combine the Sahara with the imperial cities and are the most common choice for a first visit to Morocco.
Extended Morocco Tours: 10 to 14 Days
Extended tours cross Morocco north to south and add regions that shorter itineraries cannot reach.
Where Our Morocco Tours Travel
Morocco holds four distinct travel landscapes within a country crossable by road in two days, and our itineraries are built to combine at least three of them.
The Sahara Desert: Merzouga and Erg Chebbi
The Imperial Cities: Marrakech, Fes, Meknes and Rabat
The Atlas Mountains and the Southern Valleys
The Atlantic Coast and the North
How Our Morocco Tours Work
A Morocco Magics tour is a fully organised itinerary that includes transport, accommodation, a driver and guiding, from your arrival airport to your departure airport.
Private Tours and Small-Group Tours
A private tour runs on your own schedule with a dedicated driver-guide and vehicle, and the itinerary can be altered during the trip. A small-group tour shares the vehicle and guide with other travellers on a fixed route, lowering the cost per person.
Private tours suit families, couples and anyone travelling with children or older relatives. Small-group tours suit solo travellers and those who want company on the road.
What Every Morocco Magics Tour Includes
Every tour includes private ground transport in an air-conditioned vehicle, a licensed English-speaking driver-guide, accommodation with breakfast, desert camp accommodation with dinner and breakfast on Sahara itineraries, and the camel trek where the route includes one.
Tours exclude international flights, lunches, monument entrance fees, and tips for guides and drivers.
Accommodation: Riads, Kasbahs and Desert Camps
A riad is a traditional courtyard house converted to small guest accommodation, and it is the standard city stay on our itineraries. In the southern valleys we use restored kasbahs, and in Erg Chebbi we use desert camps with private tents and en-suite bathrooms on our premium tiers.
Guides, Drivers and Vehicles
Our drivers are professional Moroccan drivers who know the Atlas and desert routes, and our city guides are licensed by the Ministry of Tourism and carry a numbered badge. Vehicles range from air-conditioned sedans and minivans to 4x4s for the Erg Chigaga crossing.
Licensed guiding matters practically: unlicensed guides in Moroccan medinas operate on shop commission, which is why independent visitors are routinely steered toward the wrong purchases.
What a Morocco Tour Costs
A Morocco tour with Morocco Magics starts at $180 per person for a 3-day desert trip and reaches $2,560 per person for a 10-day heritage itinerary. Price is driven by four factors: trip length, private versus shared vehicle, accommodation tier, and group size — per-person cost falls significantly from two travellers to four.
Morocco money and budget guideWhen to Travel: Choosing Your Departure Season
The best months for a Morocco tour are March to May and September to November, when interior daytime temperatures sit in the low-to-mid 20s °C and desert nights stay comfortable. We operate year-round with seasonal adjustments: summer itineraries shift activity to early morning and evening and favour the coast and the Atlas, and winter itineraries add extra bedding at desert camps, where night temperatures approach freezing.
Planning Your First Trip to Morocco
First-time visitors to Morocco need to settle four things before booking: entry requirements, currency, dress expectations and trip length. Most travellers from the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and the European Union enter Morocco without a visa for up to 90 days. The currency is the Moroccan dirham (MAD), a closed currency that cannot reliably be bought before arrival.
How to Book a Morocco Tour
Booking a Morocco Magics tour takes three steps. Send us your dates, group size and the itinerary or regions you want. We return a written quotation with the named riads and camps, the vehicle type and the full inclusion list. You confirm with a deposit, and we hold the accommodation.
Our Marrakech office is open Monday to Friday, 08:00–17:30, and Saturday and Sunday, 08:00–24:00. Call +212 602 06 08 14 or email contact@moroccomagics.com.
Frequently Asked Questions
You need a minimum of 3 days for a Sahara Desert tour from Marrakech and 7 days to combine the desert with the imperial cities. Trips of 10 to 14 days cross Morocco north to south without repeating driving days.
Morocco Magics operates both. Private tours run on your own schedule with a dedicated driver-guide and vehicle and can be modified during the trip. Small-group tours share the vehicle and guide on a fixed route at a lower cost per person.
Every Morocco Magics tour includes private ground transport with a licensed driver-guide, accommodation with breakfast, desert camp accommodation with dinner and breakfast on Sahara routes, and the camel trek where the itinerary includes one. International flights, lunches, monument entry fees and tips are excluded.
Most travellers do not. Citizens of the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and EU member states may enter Morocco without a visa for stays of up to 90 days, with a passport valid at least six months beyond arrival.
Yes. Every itinerary is a starting point. Because we contract our own drivers, guides and camps directly rather than reselling, routes, durations and accommodation tiers can be changed before departure and adjusted during the trip.
March to May and September to November are the best months for a Morocco tour, with interior daytime temperatures in the low-to-mid 20s °C. July and August exceed 38 °C in Marrakech and the Sahara, so summer itineraries shift to the Atlantic coast and the Atlas Mountains.
