Private Morocco Tours from the USA

No. U.S. passport holders can enter Morocco visa-free for stays up to 90 days for tourism. Your passport must be valid for at least six months from your date of entry, and you'll need at least one blank page for the entry stamp. We send a pre-trip prep PDF that walks you through everything Customs may ask.

Yes — Royal Air Maroc operates nonstop service from New York JFK and Washington Dulles (IAD) to Casablanca (CMN) year-round. Flight time is approximately 7.5 hours. From most other U.S. cities, you'll connect once — typically via Madrid (Iberia), Lisbon (TAP), Paris (Air France), London (British Airways), or Frankfurt (Lufthansa). We can structure your itinerary around whichever routing makes sense for your home airport.

Our private tours start at $2,120 USD per person (5-day Marrakech & Sahara) and go up to $3,710 USD per person (15-day Grand Morocco) for two people travelling together in 4-star accommodation. Pricing covers private vehicle with English-speaking driver, all hotels, daily breakfast, and several included meals — but excludes your international flights. Quotes are issued in U.S. dollars.

Yes — Morocco is one of the safest destinations in North Africa and the broader region for U.S. travellers. The U.S. State Department currently lists Morocco at Level 2: Exercise Increased Caution, which is the same advisory level as France, Germany, the U.K. and Italy. Our private itineraries add a layer beyond solo travel: dedicated English-speaking driver, vetted accommodation, 24/7 in-country support, and curated routes that avoid the very small handful of areas the State Department flags.

You can pay by U.S. credit card (Amex, Visa, Mastercard), ACH bank transfer, international wire, Zelle, or PayPal. Invoicing is in USD, so your credit-card statement won't show foreign transaction fees. Standard payment schedule is 30% deposit at confirmation, balance due 45 days before arrival. Larger or last-minute bookings can be structured differently — just ask.

Morocco runs on GMT+1 year-round. That's typically 4 hours ahead of U.S. Eastern time, 5 ahead of Central, 6 ahead of Mountain, and 7 ahead of Pacific. Most American travellers find the jet lag from the East Coast manageable — similar to flying to Western Europe. We build a relaxed Day 1 (or a half-day Casablanca walk) into most itineraries to let you reset.

Yes — multi-gen American families are one of our most common bookings. We use mid-size or large private vehicles (Mercedes Vito or Sprinter equivalents), select accommodation with family suites or connecting rooms, build in slower pacing and rest days, and offer kid-friendly cooking classes, cooking workshops, camel rides in the dunes, and Atlas village visits that work for all ages. Tell us the ages and mobility levels of everyone travelling, and we'll design accordingly.

For peak season travel (April–May and September–October), we recommend booking 4–6 months ahead — the best riads in Fes and Marrakech sell out fast in those windows. For Christmas/New Year, book 8–10 months out. For shoulder seasons (Feb–March, Nov, summer Atlantic coast), 8–12 weeks is usually enough lead time. If you're planning closer to departure, we can almost always still build something excellent — just call us.

Yes. Morocco is naturally halal-friendly across the board. We routinely arrange vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and kosher meals. For strict kosher, we work with specific Casablanca and Marrakech kosher caterers and restaurants. Just tell us your dietary requirements at the proposal stage and we'll structure restaurant and riad selections around them.

We strongly recommend U.S. travellers purchase comprehensive travel insurance covering trip cancellation, medical evacuation, and lost baggage. We don't sell insurance directly (so we have no incentive to push any one product), but we can point you toward U.S.-based providers our clients have had good experiences with, including Allianz, Travel Guard, and World Nomads. Many Amex Platinum and Chase Sapphire Reserve cards include strong baseline trip protection — worth checking before you buy a standalone policy.
