Whether you are traveling as a couple, with friends, or with your family, Morocco Family Tours can create a private New Year itinerary designed around your travel dates and interests.
Celebrate New Year’s Eve in Marrakech
Marrakech is one of Morocco’s most popular destinations during the holiday season. The city combines traditional Moroccan culture with excellent restaurants, beautiful riads, rooftop terraces, luxury hotels, and festive New Year celebrations.
During your stay, you can explore Jemaa el-Fna, wander through the colorful souks, visit historic palaces and gardens, enjoy traditional Moroccan cuisine, and experience the atmosphere of the old Medina.
For New Year’s Eve, many hotels and restaurants organize special dinners and celebrations. Because this is one of the busiest periods of the year, booking accommodation and activities in advance is highly recommended.
New Year in the Sahara Desert
For travelers looking for something completely different, celebrating New Year’s Eve in the Sahara Desert can be the highlight of a Morocco trip.
Travel through the Atlas Mountains, visit Ait Ben Haddou, discover the Dades and Todra valleys, and continue toward Merzouga and the impressive Erg Chebbi dunes.
In Merzouga, you can ride a camel across the dunes at sunset before spending the night at a desert camp. Enjoy Moroccan food, traditional music, and the incredible desert sky as you welcome 2027 in the Sahara.

Is December a Good Time to Visit Morocco?
Yes. December is a great time to explore Morocco, especially for travelers who prefer cooler temperatures compared with the summer months.
Days can be pleasant in Marrakech and southern Morocco, while evenings and desert nights can become cold. Warm layers are therefore important, particularly if your itinerary includes Merzouga or the Atlas Mountains.
