Down to Earth: Fez, Chefchaouen and the Rif

If you love experiencing other cultures and have a taste for the great outdoors, this part of Northern Morocco will be perfect for you! You'll get to do a lot of walking - including trekking through the Rif Mountains as mules carry your luggage - you'll get to see many aspects of Moroccan culture and history, and you'll enjoy some very good food. You'll stay in local Berber houses (simple accommodation, great hospitality) and guesthouses, and you'll come back well exercised and with a mass of wonderful memories.


This is one of Tribes' Down to Earth holidays. This is a great range of more affordable, set itinerary holidays, as opposed to our tailor made trips. The Down to Earth holidays also have their own website where you will find lots more details about each trip.

Pricing guidelines for Morocco

  • Open Panel 

We hope the following will give you a rough idea of costs. These are quoted per person based on twin share for two people, without international flights but including internal flights. We’ve used good standard accommodation throughout. There are nearly always ways to spend more money than we’ve suggested (!), but these prices show a good and realistic range for each type of trip.

International flights will add from about £200 depending on the season and route (unless the airlines have special offers). We offer flights with Royal Air Maroc which has daily flights to Marrakech as well as good connections to other cities.

For each accommodation on this website you will find an indication of the price. The bands are based on the price per person per night at peak season and are represented by the following values for this country:
£

  under £50

  £50 to £75

  £75 to £100
