Atlas kasbah
Cool air, mountain walking, and a terrace for the evening.
Morocco
Morocco: medina, Atlas, desert
A riad, a kasbah, and a night under the stars.
An eight-night private Morocco journey: Marrakech with a guide, walking from a kasbah in the High Atlas, and a private desert camp.
The classic shape, done privately. A guide who can read the medina, a kasbah in the mountains with walking from the door, and one or two nights in a private desert camp.
Children do very well here: pools, mules, camels, and a night in the dunes.

Questions about this journey
How long is the drive to the desert?
A full day each way, or a short flight to cut it. We plan it to suit the party.
What is the desert camp like?
A private camp with proper beds, en-suite bathrooms and a cook, set among the dunes away from other camps. Dinner is by lantern and the stars are the point.
Can we add the coast?
Yes. Essaouira is three hours from Marrakech and gives two or three gentle nights by the sea at the end.
