Your journey will start in Marrakech, where you will discover the wonders of the ochre city: palaces, lush gardens, the lively medina, the famous Jemaa El Fna square, and the majestic Koutoubia. Unless you opt for a hike in the beautiful nature around the village of Imlil, you will leave for the valley of the Ourika, a true haven of freshness located in the foothills of the Atlas with waterfalls and green landscapes. You will explore the beautiful desert of Agafay at the gates of Marrakech where, after meeting a sunset during a camel-riding, you will experience a memorable evening under the starry sky to the rhythm of the local atmosphere, before a night in a tent at the luxury camp of this desert. Towards Essaouira, you will take roads lined with argan trees, endemic of Morocco, where the goats perched on their branches feast on their fruits sought for their precious oil. In Essaouira, a port city of the trade winds with authentic charm, under the sea breeze, you will discover its imposing ramparts, its lively port, its narrow streets lined with artisanal shops and its large beach, before tasting the delights of fresh fish. Finally, you return to Marrakech, the mind filled with unforgettable memories between desert, mountain and ocean.
