Your luxury Morocco holiday awaits

Luxury Travel Chefchaouen_MoroccoLuxury Travel Fes Morocco

Loved for its vibrant cities, Morocco is a mesh of culture, history and charm. Marrakech dazzles with souks and the lively Jemaa el-Fnaa square, while Fes offers a maze of medieval alleys. Tangier, Rabat, Chefchaouen and Essaouira each add their unique character, from bohemian spirit to blue-toned streets and coastal beauty.

Luxury Travel Marrakesh-Safi MoroccoLuxury holiday to the Sahara Desert in Morocco

Beyond the cities, nature takes centre stage. In the Sahara, Merzouga’s golden dunes promise camel treks and starry nights in Berber camps. The High Atlas Mountains offer dramatic views and adventure, from luxury stays to treks up Mount Toubkal. Nearby, the Todra and Dades Gorges rise spectacularly from the valley floor.

Luxury Travel Rabat MoroccoLuxury Travel Riad Marrakesh Morocco

History is woven into Morocco’s medinas, kasbahs and monumental gates. We recommend our clients explore Roman ruins at Volubilis, the clay citadel of Ait Ben-Haddou in Ouarzazate, the Royal Tomb in Rabat, the Saadian Tombs in Marrakech, and Meknes—an ancient city founded in the 11th century.

  • "Morocco is a sensory adventure where every moment feels like a scene from a storybook. You might find yourself haggling for the perfect leather jacket in the bustling tanneries of Fez, then strolling through the serene, blue-washed alleys of Chefchaouen. In Essaouira, the pace quickens as you zip across golden sand dunes on quad bikes, screeching with joy. The souqs of Marrakech dazzle with color, scent, and sound, while the haunting call to prayer echoes across the rooftops, grounding you in the country’s deep spiritual rhythm. And when you finally wander into the vast, silent Sahara, under a sky full of stars, you realize just how small we really are."

  • “Strolling through the iconic Jemaa el-Fna market square in Fes is a feast for the senses. This ancient place has been welcoming shoppers for a thousand years. You’ll see it all here … from a Moroccan musician charming a cobra from a vibrant woven basket to stalls overflowing with ceramics, vivid textiles, affordable throws, rugs, dishes, jewellery, artwork, and musical instruments.”

    Kylie Wright

  • “It is unlike anything I have done before, staying in a Berber camp in the desert in Morocco. Riding a camel to the dune top at sunset, with waves of textured sand going on to the horizon. Learning about Berber culture and traditions, and enjoying the flavour-packed cuisine of Morocco during a star-lit dinner. A one of a kind experience.”
