Incredible Morocco and Middle East tours

You’ve got your home life, and home friends...and home routine. But this is your chance to leave it behind. To lose yourself in the everyday. To change your view and your expectations. To discover the unknown. To set the REAL you free on a Middle East or North Africa tour.   

Take a Topdeck trip through Morocco and delve deeper than the #wanderlust pics of your TikTok feed. From mesmerising Marrakech to the ‘Blue City’ of Chefchaouen and buzzing medinas of Fes – uncover a side to Morocco only the savviest travellers have the opportunity to experience.   

You’ve seen them in textbooks. You’ve seen them in documentaries. You’ve seen them in The Mummy movies over and over. But experiencing the Pyramids of Giza for yourself? A whole different level of AMAZING. From open-air felucca sailing down the Nile to exploring the Temples of Abu Simbel with a qualified Egyptologist – our ‘Egypt: Pharaohs & Pyramids’ tour sure as hell isn’t your average holiday. Then again, you’re not your average traveller.   

Long story short: you’d be hard-pressed to find another region that sizes up to the Middle East and North Africa. Ready to see why?

Things to do in Thailand

Explore Casablanca

If it’s good enough for Hollywood, it’s more than good enough for us. Touched down in Casablanca? The coastline is calling. A trip to the beach is just what your Topdeck trip mates ordered, and with sparkly waters and golden sands, how could you not? Beach aside, Morocco’s largest city has plenty up its sleeve with awesome architecture and jaw-dropping sights aplenty. Wander through the market-filled Medina for a REAL taste of Morocco. Gaze up at Hassan II Mosque aka one of the largest mosques in the world. Have a peek in Rick’s Café just because it’s famous. And window shop your way through Africa’s biggest mall. Afterwards? Share ALL the stories as you tuck into the tastiest tagine ever with the best group ever.

A fel-whatta?

Imagine: the sun on your back, the wind in your sails and THE BEST people you could ever hope to meet sharing stories, food and music in one cushion-strewn love-in...on our ‘Egypt: Pharaohs & Pyramids’ trip we’ll ditch the coach, forget the tourist-laden top sights, and embark on a once-in-a-lifetime Nile River cruise. Spending a night aboard a traditional felucca (aka traditional wooden sailboat), we’ll ditch the tech and lose ourselves in the moment. Tuck into home-cooked molokhia and kushari with the gang. Stop for refreshing swim stops. And wave to the locals going about their day-to-day along the banks of this mighty river. This is what you came for.

See the Pyramids in person

When it comes to I-N-C-R-E-D-I-B-L-E sights, the Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx are defo up there. Yeah, they may look epic on the TV, but the ancient wonder of the world looks even more epic in real life. And lucky you getting to experience it all on the walking tour of ALL walking tours. Journey through the sun-soaked sands and get ready for that *pinch-me* moment as you come face on with the HUGE triangle structures and iconic human-headed Sphinx. It’s a pretty wow-worthy moment so take it all in and listen as our expert Trip Leader fills you in on over 4000 years of history (dw, he’ll do a speedy summary). Oh, and it’s compulsory to talk about the Pyramids long after you’ve left ‘cos you’ve been there, done that and it was totally awesome.

Visit the ‘Blue City’ and Rif Mountains

Make sure you pack your camera ‘cos this mountainside city is bursting with picture-perfect moments. If blue’s your favourite colour you’re in for a treat and if it’s not, it soon will be ‘cos it’s EVERYWHERE. The best way to discover this Moroccan gem? Following the footsteps of an expert local guide. Hold (tightly) onto your best travel bud as we try not to get lost in the medina. Soak up epic views of the Rif Mountains from the top of the Spanish Mosque. Get your history fix at the majestic Kasbah fortress. And try your hardest to not buy a souvenir from one of the local markets. All that sightseeing is thirsty work and what better way to quench it than with a Moroccan mint tea? No trip to Chefchaouen is complete without sampling the local eats either. Gather the gang and follow those mouth-watering aromas to the delish street food stalls.

Real you

Pausing to watch the sun set over one of the oldest cities in the world. Listening to the crackle of the campfire surrounded by new friends. Diving to colour-filled underwater cities in the Red Sea. Losing yourself amongst Morocco’s winding medinas. Brushing your hand along the ancient limestone walls of the Great Pyramids. This, it’s an alternate reality. A realer real, away from home, work, the daily grind. So, who do you want to be? Because this is your chance. Your chance to be the best version of yourself. To be an insider, not a bystander. To strip it all back and find the real you. Trust us, you’re out there somewhere.
