Capture the extraordinary visual diversity of Morocco on this five-day photography tour designed for enthusiast and advanced photographers. Led by a professional travel photographer with extensive Morocco experience, this small-group tour is timed to maximize golden hour shooting opportunities at Morocco's most photogenic locations, from the blue streets of Chefchaouen to the golden dunes of the Sahara.
The tour begins in Marrakech, where an evening session in the Jemaa el-Fnaa square provides the perfect introduction to street photography in Morocco's most visually intense environment. Your photography guide will share techniques for capturing candid portraits, managing challenging light conditions, and composing compelling images in chaotic environments. Early morning sessions in the quiet medina streets capture a different mood entirely.
From Marrakech, the route takes you through the Atlas Mountains to the Sahara, with multiple stops at locations chosen specifically for their photographic potential: the kasbah of Ait Ben Haddou in late afternoon light, the towering walls of Todra Gorge, and the Erg Chebbi dunes at sunrise and sunset. The desert camp overnight provides opportunities for astrophotography and long-exposure night sky work under some of the darkest and clearest skies in North Africa.
The tour concludes with two days shooting in Fes and Chefchaouen, two of the most photogenic cities in the world. In Fes, your guide navigates you to hidden viewpoints, artisan workshops with perfect natural light, and the iconic Chouara Tannery. In Chefchaouen, pre-dawn sessions capture the blue streets without tourists, and your guide knows every angle that makes this blue city so captivating. Post-processing workshops are included each evening.
