What’s Included

• Accommodation

  On this trip, we stay in two premises: a hotel in a modern suburb of Marrakech and a family-run property in the Atlas village of Tighza. Marrakech: Hotel Gomassine (nights 1, 2 and 7) Our adventure begins and ends at Hotel Gomassine in the Guéliz neighbourhood of Marrakech. The hotel itself has a small pool with sun loungers, plus there are plenty of shops, cafes and restaurants nearby. If, upon arrival, you need to pick up anything for the days ahead, the Carre Eden mall is a five-minute walk away, where you’ll find international shops and a Carrefour Gourmet supermarket. Tighza: Riad Bouchahoud (nights 3-6) This family-run property offers simple, traditional accommodation in spacious rooms. On warmer evenings, we can enjoy dinner on the large terrace overlooking the farms and villages of the Tighza valley; during winter, the spacious salon gives us plenty of space to relax and socialise. Worth knowing Due to the size of the Tijhza riad, we can only offer the single supplement in Marrakech.

• Guide

  There will be a local leader, a driver and local guides where needed.

• Additional Services
  • Arrival and departure transfers.
  • Stay in a traditional Moroccan village.
  • Walking amidst beautiful mountain scenery.
  • Discover the fascinating culture and traditions of the Berber people.

• Transport

  We use a private bus, the size of which will depend on the group size, with a local driver. Roads in Morocco are reasonably good, and driving conditions in towns and on the plains are good. On mountain roads, the pace will be slower. Although the buses normally have air conditioning and heating, this is not up to European/North American standards.
