Discover Marrakech over 7 nights, with time exploring the medina and Atlas Mountains before settling into a second hotel for spa days and city visits.

Marrakech

Marrakech and the Atlas Mountains

Marrakech can be dazzling and a little disorientating. That’s part of the fun, but having someone show you the way is a very good start. Spend three nights in a riad inside the medina, the city’s walled old quarter. A full-day guided walk connects the famous landmarks with places you might otherwise pass by, from a communal bakery to working craft studios. The next day, pick out ingredients at the market and turn them into lunch in a family home. Then leave the city for three nights in the High Atlas foothills. An included day in the Ourika Valley introduces you to local growers, a women’s cooperative, and village artisans. Keep your final full day free for a guided walk in the hills or an afternoon by the pool.

Luxury Marrakech and Coast

La Sultana has made a name for itself with small, distinctive hotels that feel rooted in Morocco. In Marrakech, five restored riads form a hotel of just 28 individually designed rooms, with ornate courtyards, a hammam, and a rooftop above the Kasbah, the medina’s historic royal quarter. From this luxury base, you’ll have time to get to know the old city with a guide before an excursion takes you into the Atlas Mountains. Then travel west to Oualidia, a fishing town on the Atlantic coast. A natural barrier shelters its tidal lagoon from the open ocean, creating a landscape of oyster beds, salt marshes, and birdlife. La Sultana Oualidia sits at the water’s edge, with only 12 rooms and suites, a spa, gardens, and a pool overlooking the lagoon. Four nights give you time to explore it all or simply stay put and watch the tides.

Marrakech

Marrakech, Desert and Beach

One day, you’re watching bread go into a communal oven in Marrakech. Next, you’re walking between orchards and terraced fields in the High Atlas on your way to lunch in a local family’s home. Then come Agafay’s pale, stony hills and a night at camp, followed by Atlantic waves on the coast near Taghazout. This seven-night trip keeps changing scenes. It includes a guided introduction to Marrakech’s medina, a day in the mountains, and a visit to Taroudant’s walled souks. The coast gets a free day, too, so you can book a surf lesson, settle in on the beach, or linger over seafood. And if that last part sounds especially tempting, you can add extra nights at the end.

Marrakech, Mountains and Beach

Few days look alike on this trip. One takes you through Marrakech’s medina, the walled old city where palace courtyards sit alongside working shops and neighbourhood bakeries. Another begins at a market and ends with lunch you’ve made in a family home. In the Atlas foothills, you’ll meet growers, cooperative members, and artisans on an included day in the Ourika Valley. Then the landscape opens onto the Atlantic. Your coastal base could be beside Agadir’s broad bay or farther north at Imi Ouaddar, with an excursion inland to Taroudant and its busy trading souks. Add three nights on the coast if you’d like a longer finish by the sea.
