Morocco Eclipse 2027: Sun, Shadow & Chefchaouen
About Morocco - From $2,099.00 USD
For one unforgettable afternoon, Morocco’s “Blue City” of Chefchaouen will glow under the shadow of a total Solar Eclipse — and you’ll be there, eyes to the sky, in the middle of the magic. But that’s just the start. Over seven days, you’ll wander the maze-like medina of Fes, picnic in the Atlas Mountains, and explore the ancient Roman ruins of Volubilis. Then it’s off to Casablanca, where the city’s historic old town and coastal energy keep the adventure going strong. Culture, history, landscapes, and one epic celestial moment — Morocco doesn’t get more once-in-a-lifetime than this.

Is there an extra cost for travelling solo?
We believe solo travellers should not have to pay more to travel so our group trips are designed for shared accommodation and do not involve a single supplement. Single travellers joining group trips are paired in twin or multi-share accommodation with someone of the same sex for the duration of the trip. Some of our Independent trips are designed differently and solo travellers on these itineraries must pay the single trip price.
