Private group tours in Morocco are made for people who already know who they are traveling with: a family, a group of friends, a birthday trip or a company team. The tour is yours alone. You share the car, the driver and the schedule with nobody else, and the route is planned around your group instead of the other way around.
At Morocco Tours Data we organize private tours, desert excursions and day trips for travelers from around the world. This guide explains how a private group tour works, what to decide before you ask for a quote, and how to avoid the mistakes groups make when they plan a Morocco group trip on their own.
What is a private group tour in Morocco?
A private group tour means only your own group travels together. There are no strangers joining at the last minute and no fixed departure date to fit around.
A shared tour works differently. Travelers who booked separately ride together on a set schedule, with a set route and little room to change it. On a private tour, you choose the dates, the pace and the stops, and the vehicle and driver are for your group only.
Who private group tours are for
- Families with children, or several generations traveling together
- Friends celebrating a birthday, a wedding or a reunion
- Teams and companies organizing a retreat or a reward trip
- Small groups with a shared interest, such as photography or hiking
What is included in a private tour with us
Every tour is different, so your written quote always lists exactly what is included and what is not. Most private tours include a driver, transport in a vehicle that suits your group size, and a route planned with you. Hotels or riads, a night in a desert camp, meals and guided visits can be added depending on the tour and your budget.
Popular routes for groups
These are three examples of private group tours in Morocco that we organize.
3 days from Rabat: imperial cities and the blue city
This route is a good fit for groups with little time. It covers imperial Meknes, the Roman ruins of Volubilis, the blue city of Chefchaouen and the Hassan II Mosque in Casablanca. If Chefchaouen is the reason you are coming, our article on why the blue city amazes visitors will help you decide how long to stay.
4 days from Rabat to Marrakech through the desert
This one crosses the Middle Atlas and Ifrane, reaches the Erg Chebbi dunes in Merzouga, includes a night in a Berber camp, and ends with the kasbah of Ait Ben Haddou a UNESCO World Heritage site. If your group starts in Marrakech, have a look at our 4-day program from Marrakech to the Merzouga desert.
Day trips
If your group only has a day or two, we run day trips such as Chefchaouen from Fes, the Roman ruins of Volubilis from Fes and the Ouzoud Waterfalls from Marrakech.
These routes are examples. Dates, stops and the number of nights can all be adjusted to your group.
How to plan a Morocco group trip
Start with the season. Spring, from March to May, and autumn, from September to November, are comfortable for most routes. Summer is very hot in the desert, and nights in the Sahara are cold in winter. Our guide to the best time to visit Merzouga goes through it month by month.
Then think about the pace. Morocco is bigger than it looks on a map, and a trip from Marrakech to Merzouga is a full day of driving. With children or older travelers, plan the long days carefully and leave time to rest.
Finally, decide what matters most to the group: the desert, the cities, the mountains or a mix. A good itinerary says no to some things, so the trip does not turn into a race.
