The Arrival

A Royal Welcome to Marrakech

VIP meet and greet, from the aircraft door to your riad

As you step off the plane, your Meet & Greet agent is waiting with your name on a signboard. She escorts you through immigration and customs, arranges a porter for your luggage if you wish, and walks you straight to your private driver and guide at the airport exit.

A comfortable private transfer brings you to your hotel in the heart of Marrakech, where our guide assists with a smooth check-in. Then you have time to refresh before your first taste of Moroccan flavors.

The Medina

Into the Heart of Djemaa El Fna

An orientation walk through the pulsating soul of the city

Your orientation tour winds through the old medina and ends at Djemaa El Fna, alive with color, sound and aroma: street performers, fire eaters, snake charmers and musicians filling the evening air. Stalls overflow with dried fruit, spices and freshly pressed orange juice.

Pause for a delicate henna tattoo, a timeless Moroccan tradition, then sip mint tea on a cafe terrace overlooking the entire square as the sun sets and the food stalls come to life below.

The Evening

Cocktails & Dinner at Dar Dar Rooftop

The Marrakech skyline and the Atlas as your backdrop

The evening opens with expertly crafted cocktails and gourmet canapes as the sun sets over the city. As night falls, a refined dinner follows: a curated menu of Moroccan and international flavors, prepared with the freshest ingredients and served with elegance under the glittering city lights.

The Souks

A Full Day of Sightseeing & Shopping

Carpets, lanterns, leather and spice, with your own guide

Wander the labyrinthine streets of the historic medina, where the souks display colorful textiles, handwoven carpets, leather goods, pottery, lanterns and fragrant spices. A feast for the senses from the first alley to the last.

Your guide takes you to our recommended shops based on your interests and your wish list, so every purchase is the right one.

From the Sky

Sunrise Hot Air Balloon Ride

Marrakech and the Atlas in the soft gold of morning

Rise before dawn for a once-in-a-lifetime hot air balloon adventure over the Marrakech Palm Grove. As you float gently above the landscape, panoramic views of the desert and the Atlas Mountains unfold beneath you, bathed in golden light. A highlight of any journey to Morocco.

The Gardens

Majorelle Gardens & the YSL Museum

The most photographed blue in Morocco

After breakfast, head to the famous Majorelle Gardens, the serene botanical haven once owned by Yves Saint Laurent. Stroll among lush plantings, cobalt-blue pavilions and an exquisite collection of cacti and palms, with the Yves Saint Laurent Museum just next door.

The Ritual

A Private Moroccan Hammam

Steam, black soap and laughter, in complete privacy

Reserved exclusively for your group, this traditional ritual is more than a spa treatment. Fragrant steam, aromatic black soap and invigorating scrubs cleanse both body and mind, while the privacy lets you unwind, laugh and simply be together.

The evening continues at Royal Mansour: a curated tasting of fine Moroccan wines with artisanal bites, followed by a multi-course dinner at La Grande Table Marocaine, renowned for its refined Moroccan cuisine.

The Ride

Sidecar Through the Palm Grove

Wind in your hair, palms as far as the eye can see

Hop into a vintage sidecar motorcycle for a thrilling ride through the palm groves of Marrakech, cruising past towering palms, traditional Berber villages and the hidden corners of the old medina that most visitors never see.

The Pause

Tea Time at the Culinary Arts Museum

Mint tea and pastries in the heart of the medina

In the heart of the old medina, the Musee Culinaire hosts a charming tea-time experience: traditional Moroccan mint tea and delicate pastries served in an elegant setting, surrounded by the flavors and stories of the country’s culinary heritage.

The Adventure

Maverick Ride to the Agafay Desert

Two hours of pure adrenaline between camp and lake

On arrival in the Agafay, take the wheel for a two-hour Maverick ride across the stone desert, running between your camp and the shores of Lake Lalla Takerkoust. Dust, speed and scenery you will talk about for years.

The Night

Flying Dresses & a 1001 Nights Evening

A photoshoot at golden hour, then a night to remember

At your desert camp, the evening begins with a private flying dress photoshoot: flowing high-fashion gowns, hair, makeup and styling on site, and a professional photographer capturing cinematic images against the golden dunes.

Then the 1001 Nights experience takes over: camel rides at sunset, Gnaoua and Ahouach performances, a lavish Bedouin-style dinner, henna art, fire shows and a guided stargazing session under the vast desert sky.

The Mountains

Into the High Atlas

Berber hospitality, clay ovens and mountain air

After a gentle morning yoga session and checkout, your private driver takes you into the High Atlas Mountains. In a Berber village you meet a local woman who bakes bread the most traditional way, in a clay oven. Try it warm, dipped in virgin olive oil, with fresh mint tea.

The day continues at Kasbah Tamadot with lunch by the pool and sweeping mountain views, or with a cultural escape to the Ourika Valley: a carpet-weaving cooperative, an organic farm lunch and an optional soft hike through the green valley.

The Farewell

A VIP Goodbye

Escorted to the last minute, the way you arrived

On your final day, a private transfer brings you to Marrakech Menara Airport, where your Meet & Greet agent escorts you to check-in and facilitates customs and immigration. You then relax in the VIP lounge until boarding, carrying home a suitcase of souvenirs and a heart full of stories.
