Total Solar Eclipse in Morocco 2027
Experience the total solar eclipse with a local Moroccan family. We are preparing special small-group and private journeys for travelers who want to experience the 2027 total solar eclipse while discovering the landscapes, culture and hospitality of Morocco.
About the Eclipse
On August 2, 2027, a total solar eclipse will cross parts of Morocco. The northern part of Morocco lies within the path of totality, making the country an interesting destination for travelers who want to combine the eclipse with a Moroccan holiday.
The Moon's shadow sweeps in from the Atlantic, crosses the Strait of Gibraltar and continues east across North Africa and the Middle East. Only a narrow band — the path of totality — experiences the fully eclipsed Sun and the solar corona. Everything outside that band sees a partial eclipse.
We are still confirming our final viewing area on the ground. For that reason we do not publish an exact location yet: when it is confirmed, it will be shared with our eclipse guests.

Where to Watch the Eclipse in Morocco
The path of totality reaches northern Morocco.
The path of totality crosses the north of the country. Travelers who want to see the fully eclipsed Sun need to be inside that band; the rest of Morocco enjoys a deep partial eclipse.
Weather, open horizons and easy mobility matter as much as the map. A private vehicle and driver let us reposition on the morning of the eclipse if coastal mist or crowds affect one spot.
- Stay inside the path of totality the night before
- Keep two or three viewing options with different horizons
- Decide the final spot on the morning, using the forecast
- Use certified solar viewing protection for all partial phases

What Our Travelers Say
Real experiences from real travelers who have explored Morocco with us
The best tour guide you'll find!
I don't normally give reviews let alone 5 star ones but Hassan and his team have gone so far above my expectations from a tour company I thought they more then deserved it. As a Solo traveler I was or course concerned about safety. So what made me go with them? Morocco amazing destinations was responsive on the phone transparent and fair with their prices, but it was more than that. They gave me traveling tips and we're always a phone call away if I had a question or needed a place to stay. Unfortunately the first few days of my trip I was sick I wasn't feeling well enough to start the tour when I communicated this to the company their primary concern was me feeling better and enjoying my trip and they didn't even ask for a compensation fee even though they had driven all the way out there. I was really touched by this and called them a couple days later to continue the tour. The tour guide takes you in like one of his family showing you his home his community and tradition. Something I can say as an American we don't really have an abundance. The openness of the people to share what they have connect to you and how they live with one another was really an experience for me. If any of what I'm saying speaks to you book your tour with them and no further for a good experience in Morocco.
Do you want Quality Service? Would you like to feel welcomed? Choose this company, you won't be disappointed 🙏🏾🫶🏾
If I could rate this company with 20 stars that would not be enough!!! From the moment we arrived they treated us with so much respect and you can tell they take pride in the service they provide. Hamid my expert driver and friend was nothing short of extraordinary. His attention to detail and character blew me away. I found myself getting emotional any time he would go above and beyond to ensure my comfortability. Hamid I cannot thank you enough, you my friend are something special. To your boss Hassan, thank you for pairing me with this talented young man. We will be back God willing in July but ONLY if Hamid will accommodate us. I will name my son after him - The real Fatimah
Spectacular experience 100% recommended
The service of our guide Hassan has been excellent. At all times we have felt accompanied by him, feeling him as a friend who has made the journey with us and who has transmitted to us the passion for his work, his country, his people and especially his Berber culture.
