Detailed Day-by-Day Itinerary

Family Trip to Morocco: Marrakesh, Imlil Agafay - 7 Days

Day 1 — Arrive in Marrakesh & Private Food Tour

Welcome to Morocco! On arrival you’ll meet your private driver and transfer to a traditional riad in the Medina. After settling in, enjoy a private food tour — a gentle introduction to Morocco’s vibrant flavors and markets. Ideal for families: lots of small tastings and a sensory walk through Marrakesh’s souks.

Day 2 — Explore Marrakesh, ANIMA Garden & Royal Mansour Tea

Today is family-friendly sightseeing with a guided treasure hunt through the Medina, a visit to Ben Youssef Madrasa, and a memorable trip to ANIMA Gardens. Finish with a luxurious afternoon tea at the Royal Mansour where children receive a special kids’ menu.

Day 3 — Family Cooking Class, Pottery & Mosaic Workshop

Take a child-focused cooking class at the Amal nonprofit center, where kids can taste spices and help make a tajine. Later, join a pottery or zellige mosaic workshop — a calm, creative activity that produces keepsakes to take home.

Day 4 — Sunrise Hot Air Balloon & Transfer to Imlil

Pre-dawn hot air balloon flight over Marrakesh offers unforgettable family photos. Return for breakfast, then travel to Imlil in the High Atlas — the gateway to Berber villages and gentle mountain walks.

Day 5 — Toubkal National Park & Berber Mule Ride

Explore Toubkal National Park with easy family hikes and a mule trip to nearby villages. Share lunch with a local Berber family and discover rural life — kids will love feeding goats and learning about traditional irrigation and farming.

Day 6 — Transfer to Agafay Desert, Berber Village Visit & Camel Ride

Drive to the Agafay Desert with picturesque stops in mountain valleys. In Agafay, enjoy a camel ride at sunset and settle into a family-friendly desert camp for dinner and stories around the campfire — camping below a spectacular starry sky.

Day 7 — Transfer to Marrakesh & Depart

After sunrise in the desert, transfer back to Marrakesh for your onward flight. Safe travels!
