The Magic of Morocco

Imagine ancient alleyways in blushing pink stone, sprawling markets crammed with carpets and spices, calls to prayer piped out from ancient minarets. Now picture yourself atop a camel, riding through the vast dunes of the desert in a scene right out of a movie. This is where we’ll find ourselves on this private trip between friends. This adventurous road trip will take us from Marrakech through the Atlas Mountains and deep into the sand dunes of the Erg Chebbi desert - a journey to excite, inspire and remember. Are you ready for it?

​​

*Please note that there is a fair amount of driving in order to arrive at the magnificent Erg Chebbi desert. We will be transported by private minibus to the foot of the dunes, then 4x4 jeeps into the desert and to our luxury camp. Driving time will be four to five hours each day for two days to the desert with the return trip to Marrakech by air.
​

Highlights:​

• a four day/three night excursion into the desert, with two nights in a beautiful camp set in the dunes 

• visits to important cultural heritage sites and areas of spectacular beauty

• camel riding, sand boarding

• a cooking class

• delicious local food
