Exploring Morocco Holidays

Rebali Activity Break

Your Itinerary

Day 1 - Arrive in Essaouira

Food is a an important part of any visit to Morocco and at Rebali you have the services of a full time chef, specialising in traditional Moroccan dishes including the famous tagines salads and cous-cous as well as the fresh fish caught on the doorstep.

Tonight we will treat you to a romantic dinner with a bottle of lovely Moroccan wine.

Day 2 - Cookery lesson

After you have sampled amazing Moroccan cuisine you will probably want to try to master your kitchen skills as well.

You will accompany the chef to the souks to find the freshest ingredients and then help him prepare a fabulous meal for you.

Day 3 - Relax

On-site are lovely private and shared gardens, a selection of swimming pools, why not spend a day reading by one of them?

Day 4 - Adventure time!

Where the road stops and the dunes start, quad bikes become the way to explore and in particular to get out to the lighthouse and the amazing dune-scape around Cape Sim.

Day 5 - Meet the locals

You will be taken on a 30 minute walk (donkeys also available) and then be put in the hands of one of the village matriarchs for lunch. No English or French is spoken but that doesn’t detract from it being one of the best things you will do whilst in Morocco.

Day 6 - Hammam time

There can be few better ways to end a hard day on the beach or by the pool than with a traditional gommage; an olive soap scrub, followed by a deep cleansing session in the steam room.

Day 7 - Visit Essaouira

The bustling old medina and port of Essaouira is one of Morocco’s most attractive towns and is a Unesco World Heritage Site. A lot more laid back than Marrakech or Fes, the souks and markets will absorb you for hours.

Day 8 - HOME

Your driver will collect you at Rebali Riads for the trip back to the airport and your flight home, assuming you manage to get all your souvenirs and memories within your baggage allowance….

Rebali Riads is a beautiful boutique hotel with just 18 rooms in riads and private villas in the village of Sidi Kaouki, south of Essaouira, on the Moroccan Atlantic Coast.

A few steps from miles of gorgeous sandy beaches and stunning views over the coast and mountains. You can relax and soak up Moroccan rural life, and Essaouira is an easy drive away with its bustling souks and ramparts.

 

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
