Morocco – Feb 2026

This workshop will take place over eight nights and nine days. It will be a trip as much about soaking up the culture, as it will be about capturing it with our cameras.

Morocco is a country rich in history and culture and is one of my favourite places to photograph! Moroccan culture is vibrant and varied and provides endless opportunities for any photographer. Marrakesh’s bustling medina alone is a sight to behold.

At every turn there are stunning locations and historical sights. In Morocco you are surrounded by cultural traditions in practise, there is just so much to do and see in this mesmerising country. Do not miss your opportunity to experience something completely different! 

Full details of our proposed itinerary in the workshop description and why not explore my Morocco images in the gallery below to get a sense of what to expect.

This trip will create memories for a lifetime!

We will meet at our hotel at 3pm on Saturday 14th of February where the tour will begin. We will spend the first two nights in Marrakech exploring the magic of the Medina. 

On Sunday morning we will meet our guide who will take us to all the photographic areas of Marrakech. We will visit the Souks, Palaces, Tanneries, Secret Gardens and many more delights. It is important to have a guide in Marrakech for safety and to make the most of our time.

Tuesday morning will see sunrise down at the river after which we will take time to explore the old city. Also, on Tuesday we travel east towards Tinghir where we will be staying at the entrance to the Todra gorge. 

On Wednesday we depart for Merzouga where we will be staying on the edge of the Western Sahara desert for 3 nights.
