Day 1
Hello there & welcome to magical Morocco, your driver will meet you in
the airport arrivals & will transport you to the hotel / riad
Day2
Today, we start our family fun expedition driving into the Atlas Mountains,
climbing high and onwards to our destination Ouarzazate. Interestingly, this
stunning town & area has been made very famous by featuring in so many
classic Hollywood movies. Ouarzazate or known by the Berber locals as ‘the door
of the desert’ has been the backdrop in films such as ‘Gladiator’ (Russell
Crowe), ‘Alexander’ (Oliver Stone) and classics like ‘Lawrence of Arabia’.
Together, we will visit the famous film studios here and let our imaginations
run wild.
Day3
How would you like to see a gorge that has walls a 1000 foot high? Well
today, we have the unique opportunity to discover and explore the stunning Todra
Gorge. The whole family will witness the magical affect of the stones changing
colour, as sun moves from East to West, delivering varying shades of yellows,
oranges and glowing reds. As the day evolves so does your Morocco adventure
tour, and we cruise back to relax by the hotel pool. Here we harmonies in the
subtle warmth of Morocco life and dream steady of the days ahead. Home life is
now a distant memory.
Day4
The great family adventure continues by crossing the Jebel Sahrou mountain
range and downwards to the ‘Erg Chebbi’ or sand dunes to you and me! This
majestic sand structures signify the beginning of the mighty Sahara Desert,
where we’ll swap 4×4 jeeps for camels to trek deep into this hypnotic landscape.
During this inspiring transit on this unusual form of animal transpaortation,
you’ll be wow’ed at the bewildering expanse of the Sahara Desert. Even the kids
will have clarity in their own peacefulness as the desert envelopes itself
around you. In good timing to satisfy one’s hidden beast, we’ll arrive at a
genuine Berber camp for delicious food and a night underneath the skies wet with
stars. Tonight we will hear tales of old, and the whispers of the desert night
and relaxation in one of the most spectacular overnight locations you’ll ever
have.
Day5
Our next stop is the Gorges du Dades, a stunning gorge of the Dadès River and
lies between the Atlas Mountains and Anti-Atlas mountain range. Although sad to
leave the hypnotic charm of the Sahara, day five promises to be as every bit
special as the days so far. Along our way we’ll discover the purpose built
Kasbahs and many other southern wonders of this beautiful region. Tonight you
will stay in a fantastic hotel in the Gorges du dades.
Day6
Your Morocco family adventure holiday is about to discover another incredible
town called Aït Benhaddou, a ‘fortified city’ and Unesco registered for its
historical value and beauty. Interestingly Aït Benhaddou has been home to many
film sets from Gladiator to The Mummy. The natural landscapes are a feast for
the eyes and the town itself is located hill side. Together we’ll take a guided
tour, and discover the dusty treasures of this unique city.
Day7
We’ll have time in the morning to enjoy some free time in Ait Benhaddou,
before moving on. When ready we’ll journey over the Atlas Mountains and head for
the red glow of Marrakech. It’ll be late afternoon by the time we arrive in this
exotic place of intrigue and family adventure. This is Morocco’s second largest
city, full of marvellous colour, luscious fruits, street sellers and
entertainers. We’ll freshen up and then explore the main square ‘Djamma-El-Fna’
before resting for another delicious dinner.
Day8
A family holiday in Morocco wouldn’t be complete without a city tour. It
takes a local to really show you the delights of this city. Marrakech the
distant city conjures up many images of exotic magic carpets, snake charmers and
frankincense and myrrh brought in by camel trains – and we’ll bring this sense
of magic to the whole family. We’ll of course begin in one of the busiest
squares in Africa, then weave our way through darkened alleyways, find hidden
gardens & court yards. Your senses will overload on the sights &
exciting smells and you’ll be able to test your bargaining skills with the
world’s greatest sales men. Need more relaxation, we can highly recommend a
traditional Hammam steam bath and massage, not a bad way to end the day.
Day9
The tour ends after breakfast in Marrakech. We hope to see you again or at
least read your testimonials
