Morocco group tours for solo travellers
Travel solo as part of a group tour to Morocco
Why travel solo to Morocco?
With less than an hour between Tarifa and Tangier, Morocco is where North Africa brushes up against Moorish southern Europe. In Morocco, Arab and European influences happily coexist, all underpinned by ancient Amazigh (Berber) culture.
The range of landscapes in Morocco is just as varied and breathtaking: the Atlas Mountains, peaking at Mt Toubkal’s 4,167m; the vast Sahara Desert; and the rugged Atlantic coastline, serving some of the best surf on the continent.
Then, there are Morocco’s colour-rich cities. Marrakech, with its labyrinthine medina and traditional textiles. The Rif Mountain ‘blue city’ of Chefchaouen, with its sapphire-washed streets and alleyways winding into the hills. Casablanca, elegant and sea-washed. And many more, brimming with history and character…
Offering good value for travellers and a year-round temperate climate, it’s no wonder Morocco consistently ranks as one of Flash Pack’s most popular destinations. You’ll quickly fall in love – and be back for more.

Top places to visit in Morocco
Marrakech
Marrakech’s medina is a walled city, built during the Berber Empire. Meander through souks sampling local cuisine, tour ancient ruins and admire its mix of mosques, palaces and markets.
Essaouira
Take to the beach in Essaouira – a beautiful, breezy port city on Morocco’s Atlantic coast. Nicknamed the ‘Wind City of Africa’, it’s particularly popular with windsurfers. Escape the coastal currents in the winding spice-filled alleys of the medina.
Taghazout
A small fishing village north of Agadir is home to some of the best waves in Africa. If you prefer calmer waters, pop over to Paradise Valley on the Tamraght River to take in a palm-lined gorge, complete with pools and waterfalls.
Casablanca
Casablanca is Morocco’s largest city, a commercial hub boasting a blend of Moorish, art deco, and French colonial influences. Admire the graceful architecture with a fresh Atlantic breeze to keep you cool.
