MARRAKECH

With its ancient Medina, labyrinthine alleyways, mosques and minarets, exotic gardens and stunning setting against the backdrop of the snow-capped Atlas Mountains, the historic walled city Marrakech has so much to offer and makes the perfect choice for a fascinating city break.

ATLAS MOUNTAINS

From Marrakech on a crisp, clear winter’s day you can behold a most awesome sight; that of the snow-capped High Atlas Mountains. Here we have two splendid hotels, both in idyllic location surrounded by Berber villages that have remained unchanged for centuries.

ESSAOUIRA

The windy town of Essaouira on the Atlantic Coast is a wonderful place to spend a few days, almost a 'mini-Marrakech', Essaouira has a wide selection of shops, souks and restaurants and not forgetting the fish market, with its huge selection of delicious seafood on offer. Also a fantastic spot for water sports enthusiasts, it's a great place to try out a bit of wind or kite surfing.

OUALIDIA

The picturesque village of Oualidia is an idyllic spot to while away a few days, there is not a lot to do here, other than relax and be utterly pampered at the gorgeous La Sultana hotel, on the edge of the stunning azure lagoon.
