Exploring Morocco Holidays

Marrakech Weekend of Pampering

Your Itinerary

Day 1 - Body Indulgence

Arrive in Marrakech Airport from where it is only half an hour drive to the lovely oasis of Villa Dinari. Relax or have a swim in the heated pool before your body  gets a special treat. Enjoy a traditional Moroccan hammam (steam room) where you will be washed and exfoliated, followed by a ghassoul clay application and a massage of your choice with essential oils – rose & sandalwood, verbena, jasmine or amber & musk or Argan oil. To follow this blissful time we suggest a cocktail and dinner at Villa Dinari’s restaurant.

Day 2 - Cooking Fun

Today you will get your hands dirty at the cookery class with one of Villa’s Dinari chefs. You will prepare two starters and a main course (you will be able to choose your favourites from the menu provided).  Your creation will be then served as your dinner. Printed version of dishes cooked will be provided so you can have a go at recreating it at home.

Morocco riad

Day 3 - Luxury Eating

Around midday your driver will take you to Marrakech Medina for a last night’s stay at  La Maison Arabe – one of the most sumptuous riads in Marrakech. After being welcomed you can take a walk in the souks which are just short walk from the riad. In the evening you will be treated with a Moroccan dinner at the restaurant  rapidly becoming and must-visit for food lovers. 

Day 4 - Bon Voyage

Depending on your flight time you may consider another spa pamper before heading back home or we can arrange a half day guided tour of the medina to see the most important sights.  Then home, but we guarantee with this mix of relaxation, pampering and good food, it will feel like you have been away a lot longer than 3 nights.  Bon Voyage Marrakech.

Marrakech
The start and finish for most Morocco Holidays. Highlights are the souks in the old Medina, the main square in the evening, the Majorelle gardens and the historical sites. You should definitely stay in a Marrakech Riad for at least a few nights but also some beautiful villas and hotels on the edge of town in rural Marrakech. Click for suggested riads More
Essaouira
Essaouira is our favourite at all times of year. Probably the prettiest coastal town in Morocco and loads to see and do. Great camel trekking, horse-riding, surfing kite/windsurfing, cooking lessons, lovely medina (more relaxing shopping than Marrakech). Also great places to stay in town and in the village click below for suggestions More
High Atlas Mountains
Incredibly close to Marrakech but a world apart, the Atlas mountains are an essential visit. Go for a day trip (trekking or driving tour), or stay in one of the beautiful kasbahs perched on a hilltop to relax and soak up the views More
Sahara Desert
The massive dunes of the Sahara should be on anyone's "bucket list" and it is easy to do a trip into the desert from Marrakech, Fes or the coast with a bit of planning More
Ait Ben Haddou
One of the most famous sights in Morocco, Ait Ben Haddou is a rock fortress on the south side of the Atlas. Always a good stopping point on our desert tours and a must for the photo album More
The Gorges
The Todra and Dades Gorges maybe a little over-hyped but certainly worth a stop on the way to Mezourga - part of our Desert & Gorges Tour More
Taroudant
A pretty walled town within easy reach of Agadir (so a lot of day trippers from the package hotels) but also a great place for a night's stop between the desert and the coast More
Agadir
Having been re-built after and earthquake 50 years ago it doesn't have as much charm as other Moroccan cities but the beach and climate are lovely More
Oualidia Lagoon
A small seaside town built up around a pretty estuary and lagoon. Home to La Sultana, the best coastal hotel in Morocco and can easily be combined with a visit to Marrakech and Essaouira More
Rabat
Less well known as a tourist destination but with recently introduced direct flights from the UK it is an interesting city where you can see the modern Morocco alongside the rivermouth Kasbah and the medina More
Casablanca
The biggest city in Morocco and an industrial sprawl. We generally advise not stopping there and even if flying to Casablanca head North to Fes/Rabat or south to Marrakech/Essaouira. If you are passing through it is worth visiting the spectacular seafront mosque.
Chefchaouen
The town of Chefchaouen is beautifully situated on a mountainside, often referred to as the blue pearl due to its shimmering blue buildings. It's worth learning the history behind the choice of this color, which contributed to the town's fame, making it one of the most photographed places in Morocco. In Chefchaouen, explore the picturesque medina with winding alleys and the Kasbah with its lush gardens, serving as a haven of freshness in the city center. Chefchaouen is a paradise for walkers, not only because of its most beautiful streets and alleys, which create an unreal impression but also due to the hiking trails around the city. Besides the Old Town, it's worth visiting the main square, Uta el Hamman, with numerous cafes, and seeing the 15th-century El Adamaa Masjid mosque in white-orange colors with its characteristic octagonal minaret. Chefchaouen is an excellent choice for a one-day trip or a relaxing overnight stay. More
Fes
Fes makes for a fabulous long weekend or as part of our "Grand Tour". The highlight is the medina which most people prefer to Marrakech, partly as it is on a hill you are much more aware of the geography. Also, do a day trip to the Roman ruins at Volubilis and ask about a night or two in the village of Bhalil More
Merzouga
The second good dune area of Morocco is Erg Chebbi by Merzouga - easier to get to (no 4x4 needed) and whilst the dunes are stunning we prefer Erg Cheggaga for a proper desert experience. More
