Morocco tours for seniors: slow, private day trips

You've done the rushing. These days start late, use the car for the distance and keep the walking short, flat and optional.

What we change for senior travellers

1/3 Walking

Easy and optional. We tell you in advance where the ground is uneven: the medina's cobbles, the Ouzoud cliff path, Ourika's stepping stones.

2/3 Drives

Comfortable vehicles and stops every hour or so on the longer days.

3/3 Altitude

Imlil is about 1,800 m and Oukaïmeden about 2,600 m. Tell us about any health concerns and ask your doctor; we'll plan around it.

What senior travellers ask us

Are your Morocco tours suitable for seniors?

Many are. The Three Valleys loop, the Marrakech city tour and the Essaouira coast are easy days. Tell us about your mobility and we'll be honest about which stops suit you.

How much walking is there?

On the easy trips, short strolls you can skip. The medinas have uneven cobbles, and some trips (Ouzoud, the Ourika waterfalls, Imlil) have rocky paths, which we flag before you book.

How much does a slow-paced trip in Morocco cost?

We don't publish prices. The cost depends on your dates, how many of you there are, the vehicle and where you sleep, so we send a fixed written quote within 24 hours of your request. There is no deposit to ask for one.
