Hey everyone! So, I have been itching to explore Morocco, and Marrakech has been on my radar for a while now. But here is the thing: I'm really keen on checking out Fez too. So, I was wondering, has anyone here ever done a day trip from Marrakech to Fez? Is it doable? Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks a bunch!

Can You Do a Day Trip from Marrakech to Fes?

Hey there!

While the idea of a day trip from Marrakech to Fez sounds thrilling, the journey takes six to seven hours by car via A3 and A2. However, attempting this in such a short timeframe might leave you stressed and missing out on attractions along the way.

If you're considering a desert trip from Marrakech to Fez, it's not feasible due to the lengthy travel time required. Instead, I recommend spending a day or two in Marrakech, then heading to Fez via A3 and A2 for an overnight stay. Alternatively, you could opt for a three-day journey via the desert.

By taking your time, you can fully immerse yourself in the charm of each city and create unforgettable memories. Just a heads up, if you choose the three-day desert route, be cautious between Merzouga and Fez on the last day as there are speed limit controls by the gendarmerie, and they might not be the friendliest.

Wishing you a fantastic Moroccan adventure filled with safe travels and incredible experiences!
