MARRAKECH

Your adventure begins in Marrakech where you will set off on vintage motorcycles, complete with sidecars, for an incredible day of adventuring. Explore this remarkable city, a labyrinth of alleyways, home to the thriving souks filled with traditional textiles, Moroccan art and spices, the perfect playground for following a series of clues on an exciting treasure hunt through the medina.

HAOUZ PLAIN

The next day, before dawn, you will leave the city for a hot air balloon flight over the Haouz Plain. Marvel at the surrounding scenery as the sun rises for a truly magical aerial view over the terraced fields and secluded Berber villages below. Landing from your flight, a delicious Moroccan breakfast will be served at the base of the balloon as the striking Atlas Mountains stand tall in the distance.

TOUBKAL NATIONAL PARK

From here, it’s off to the Toubkal National Park, home to the highest mountain in North Africa, where you will spend the morning trekking through the villages of the Mizane Valley. Pause for lunch in a typical mountain auberge in the heart of a Berber village, before travelling to the foot of the Kik Plateau - a vast and scenic pastureland - for a high-octane dune-buggy adventure that takes you deep into the Agafay stone desert.

SAHARA DESERT

Continue on an epic journey through the mountains and down to the Sahara Desert, travelling through a flat valley of streams and fields set against a backdrop of wild and dramatic mountains. Set out on a hike through the surrounding valley, stopping at a Berber market, before arriving at the home of a local family who will invite you to join them for a traditional cooking class followed by lunch, providing an amazing insight into Moroccan rural life.

Activities

Jump onto mountain bikes and onto a new off-road route that crosses the Atlas Mountains by way of one of the highest passes in North Africa (3,000m above sea level) before heading by 4x4 to an exclusive palm oasis for the night.

Activities

Head to one of the most celebrated palm oases of southern Morocco, home to millions of date palms, mud villages, crumbling kasbahs and striking angular mountains, before journeying into the desert again to stay in a luxury desert camp for two nights. Try your hand at sand boarding, desert bread baking, camel trekking, quad biking, hiking and of course scaling the dunes at sunset and sunrise.

Activities

Conclude your experience with a spectacular helicopter ride back from the desert into the vibrant city of Marrakech.
