Tangier, Ouarzazate and Casablanca: market towns and local tables across 18 days

Across 18 days, Tangier opens around Morocco read across the water; the turning point in Todra Gorge is Tinghir's palm-grove approach; arrival in Casablanca follows inter-city rail legs, off-asphalt vehicle stages, and overland road links, and the day design allows city and landscape around each table.

Histoire

At the opening, Tangier brings Tangier's Europe; midway, Rabat brings Bou Regreg waterfront; at the close, Casablanca brings Art Deco avenues.

Tangier holds day 1 ahead of Midelt around Tangier's Europe; day 4 reaches Midelt before Tangier for high-plateau staging town; day 10 before Tangier keeps Rabat focused on Bou Regreg waterfront. Before Tangier, day 13 separates thuya craft in Essaouira; before Tangier, day 18 separates Atlantic arrival city in Casablanca.

Rabat acts as the hinge through Bou Regreg waterfront; from Tangier after Tangier's Europe, the itinerary crosses Tanger-Tétouan-Al Hoceïma, Fès-Meknès, Drâa-Tafilalet, Dakhla-Oued Ed-Dahab, Oriental, Rabat-Salé-Kénitra, Marrakech-Safi, Souss-Massa, Guelmim-Oued Noun, and Casablanca-Settat using inter-city rail legs, four-wheel-drive desert stages, and road-network stages, while keeping fewer dining stops detached from the itinerary.

Plan the first connection from Tangier around service-day schedules between Rabat and Casablanca and available seats, dated desert access between Rabat and Casablanca and specialist vehicles, and current carriageway conditions between Rabat and Tangier and road-network timing; keep Casablanca's final connection open to live conditions.
