ITINERARY
Day 1
Marrakesh
When you arrive at Marrakesh Menara Airport, we will be there to welcome you and take you to your hotel in comfort. Settle in and enjoy some free time before dinner and a good night’s sleep in your luxury accommodation.
Day 2
Marrakesh
After breakfast, spend the day exploring the city. A day in Marrakesh offers a sensory feast of vibrant sights, sounds, and flavours waiting to be explored. Begin your morning by navigating the bustling lanes of the Medina, where the air is filled with the scent of exotic spices and freshly baked bread. Dive into the labyrinth of souks, bargaining for treasures like colourful textiles, intricate ceramics, and handcrafted leather goods. Next, venture to the historic landmarks such as the Bahia Palace and Koutoubia Mosque, marvelling at their intricate architecture and rich history. For lunch, indulge in a tantalizing tagine or couscous dish at a charming rooftop restaurant overlooking the bustling Jemaa el-Fnaa square. Afternoon offers a chance to unwind in a tranquil oasis like the Majorelle Garden, with its serene ponds and vibrant botanicals. As the sun begins to set, return to the square, where the energy crescendos with storytellers, musicians, and snake charmers performing amidst a sea of bustling stalls. Finally, end your day with a sumptuous Moroccan feast at a traditional riad, savouring dishes like tender lamb mechoui and decadent pastries infused with almonds and honey, a fitting finale to an unforgettable day in Marrakesh.
Day 3
Marrakesh – Agafay Desert
The Agafay Desert, just a short drive from bustling Marrakesh, offers a serene escape into the vast expanse of arid beauty. Unlike the towering dunes of the Sahara, Agafay presents a unique landscape of rocky plateaus, dusty plains, and scattered acacia trees, creating an otherworldly ambiance. Visitors can embark on thrilling desert adventures, from camel treks to quad biking, exploring the rugged terrain and soaking in panoramic views of the distant Atlas Mountains. As the sun dips below the horizon, casting a warm glow over the desert, relish the tranquillity of this remote wilderness, before dinner and a night in one of Agafay Pearl Camp’s luxurious tents.
Day 4
Agafay Desert – Marrakesh
After a breakfast of fresh fruit and traditional pastries, you return to Marrakesh. Your private transfer driver will collect you 3 hours prior to your flight’s scheduled departure time. Alternatively, why not book an extension to your stay?
