Day 4
Volubolis / Meknes
After an early breakfast,
you will set out in the morning to the ancient Roman ruins of Volubolis.
The group will spend the morning exploring the 2000-year-old ruins and
getting a picture of life during the Roman Empire. Lunch will be taken in
Mulay Idris, one of the holiest cities in Morocco. After lunch, your guide
will take you on a bus tour of the imperial city, Meknes.
Day 5
Marrakech
After an early breakfast, the group will depart for Marrakech. The
beautiful drive will take you up into the Middle Atlas Mountains and along
the base of the High Atlas Mountains.
Once in Marrakech, you will
check into your hotel and then head off to the Djemaa el-Fna, the center
square of the medina. The famous Djemaa el-Fna, is one of the center
attractions of Marrakech. Coming alive at night with the local
storytellers, entertainers, and mouth-watering barbeque pits, the square is
well worth a visit. A quiet cup of tea on the terrace of an adjacent café
provides a spectacular aerial view of the bustling square. Dinner can be
taken in the hotel or in the square.

horse and carriage ride around the city; a relaxing way to take in the
ancient city.
Day 7 Casablanca
Your last day of
travel will take you back to Casablanca. Free time will be given that
afternoon for any who wish to have some final shopping time in the old
medina.
