Our family (myself, my husband, and our 10 year old son) spent the day with Ishmael and Mohamed wandering through the Atlas mountains, Berber villages, and the desert. … Our son's 10th birthday fell on our adventure day … and Ishmael and Mohamed had "Happy Birthday Luke" written on the car AND they delivered a special birthday cake to our Riad
“No better way to experience Morocco!!!”
An important aspect was also their flexibility in allowing all of our children to ride quad bikes individually, as assessment made by Youssef on the day, and an important part of our trip that the kids wanted to do.
“Incredible experience for all”
We just returned from our adventure and the entire family has been altered forever. … He was engaging and fun with the teenagers. … We had a ball with the ATV's and the camel trekking.

A family holiday in Morocco mixes cities, mountains, desert and beach in one trip. Most families start in Marrakech, then cross the Atlas to the Sahara desert with kids for camel rides and a night in a desert camp, and finish by the ocean in Essaouira.
Private family tours are the easiest way to travel: your own driver, child seats, family rooms and stops whenever the children need them. Our trips for toddlers keep drives short; our adventure trips for teens add quads, climbing and surf.
The best time to visit Morocco with kids is spring and autumn. Read our guides on safety for families, things to do in Marrakech with kids and the perfect 7-day family itinerary.
Yes. Moroccans love children and families are welcomed everywhere. With a private driver and a local team on WhatsApp, a family trip is easy and relaxed.
Our guide to safety for familiesEvery age works with the right trip: short drives and pools for toddlers, camels and desert camps from about 4, treks from 6, and quads, climbing and surf for teens.
What children of every age love hereSpring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) are ideal. The Sahara is best from October to April; in summer, choose the coast and the mountains.
The best time to visit, month by monthYes. Every trip is private for your family, with your own driver and guides, so you set the pace, the stops and the nap times.
Who looks after your familyYes, on request and free of charge. Tell us the ages of your children when you enquire.

Send us your datesFor a first trip, Marrakech and the Sahara in 6 to 7 days. With toddlers, Marrakech, the Agafay desert and Essaouira. With teens, add quads, climbing, surf and an Atlas hike.
Our favourite first family tripYes, with the right pace: split the drive over two days and choose a comfortable family tent. With babies, the Agafay desert one hour from Marrakech is easier.
The Sahara desert with childrenA riad with a pool and family rooms, close to a car access point, or a villa in the Palmeraie for more space. We book family-friendly places only.
Family-friendly riads in MarrakechOur family trips start from 4 days. One week is ideal for Marrakech and the Sahara, 10 days to add the coast or Fes, 12 days or more for the whole country.
A 7-day family itineraryYes. Most of our family trips are door to door: we pick you up at your hotel, riad or the airport and bring you back at the end. Some trips start in one city and end in another, for example Fes to Tangier.
More answers for parentsVery: quads and sandboarding in the dunes, climbing in the Todra Gorge, surf in Essaouira, and nights in the desert far from Wi-Fi.
Adventure trips with teenagersOn family group trips, the children are a team: they play, compete, share stories and make friends from other countries, while parents relax. Activities are adapted to the ages of the group and supervised by our guides.
Teams of kids lead a slow camel caravan through checkpoints in the dunes, with our camel men walking alongside.
Who can slide the furthest down the big dune? Everybody gets a turn, and a medal for courage.
Clues hidden around the camp and the oasis: maps, riddles in Darija and a treasure at the end.
Family teams build and decorate with stones, palm leaves and shells; the camp staff are the jury.
