Tour Itinerary
|
There is something mysterious about Morocco
that draws travellers in from all over the world. Experience the chaotic
markets, relaxing coastal retreats and a hospitality second to none! Right
on Europe's doorstep, Morocco serves up a wealth of intrigue that has
something for everyone.
Day 1 Marrakech
The most African of all Moroccan Imperial cities, the red-walled mystic
of Marrakech captivates travellers with its old world charm. Wander the
Djemaa el Fna, a square unlike any other in the world that comes alive
every evening with a gathering of exotic performance artists such as traditional
musicians, dancers, storytellers and snake charmers.
Day 2, 3 Kasbah du Toubkal
We head into the tranquillity of the High Atlas Mountains. It is just
a short trek to the Kasbah du Toubkal, our simple accomodation for two
nights located on the hill above Imlil, a beautiful little village of
traditional Moroccan pink houses.
Day 4 Ouirgane
Ouirgane is a gorgeous valley stop nestled in the foothills of the High
Atlas Mountains. Here we can satisfy our palettes with great local delicacies
at the open-air food stalls. There is the option of doing a short trek
through the surrounding area, or alternatively, you may like to take on
a horseback riding adventure.
Day 5, 6 Essaouira
This character-filled seaside town offers travellers a breath of fresh
air. Explore the ramparts of the Scala de la Ville, a laid-back place
that has been the inspiration for a generation of artists. Alternatively,
shop for souvenirs or kick back on the long beach that this relaxing coastal
town is famous for.
Day 7-9 Marrakech
Returning to Marrakech, we embark on a fabulous guided caleche tour. There
is also plenty of time to visit some of the city's many monuments. We
enjoy our last feast in this amazing country where the hospitality is
as warm as the sun that washes over it.
