MOROCCO
—A magic carpet ride escape of exotic travel and sensual pleasure, this distinctly private journey immerses you in the very essence of this marvellous country. Dip into colourful markets and bazaars and engage with a variety of landscapes from the mighty Atlas Mountains to carving gorges, canyons, green oases and the enchanting dunes of the Sahara.
—On arrival, you’ll be whisked away for a scenic helicopter flight high into the Atlas mountains for an exotic luncheon overlooking the valley and Berber villages, returning to Marrakech to enjoy the chaos of the souks and the peace of a hammam at your private Riad in the heart of the city. The next day your private plane will take you to the Erg Chegaga desert to explore its majestic dunes by 4x4, camel and quad bike with a private picnic in a palm oasis. After an evening’s entertainment with the Tuareg nomads at your exclusive camp deep in the dunes, you’ll awake to a champagne hot air balloon ride over the desert. Then it’s a quick heli flight to your private palace Kasbah where you will enjoy a relaxing afternoon pool-side with massage/spa treatments before an evening of spectacular cultural entertainment.
—This unique sojourn will leave you enlightened by the spirit of Morocco and the Sahara.
