Marrakech: The Jewel of the Red City

Welcome to Morocco, known as the gateway to Africa and a country of dazzling diversity, here you’ll unearth vast mountain ranges, ancient cities, sweeping deserts and sincere hospitality. Your first stop on this twin-center trip is Marrakech, where you will be greeted by your private driver who will transfer you to your hotel for the next three nights. You’re staying at the opulent Four Seasons Marrakech. Known for its picturesque gardens and seamless levels of service and cuisine, we’ll curate an exemplary schedule of exploration so that you leave no Marrakech stone unturned. Lean into the ancient secrets of the city and expose its interesting past on a historical tour of Marrakech. Your private guide will lead you to the many historic sites, each with their own stupendousness. Meander through the winding streets and spice-scented souks, marvel at ancient tombs and be stunned by magisterial minarets.

Tantalise your tastebuds with a cooking demonstration from a traditional Moroccan chef. Watch the master at work and try your hand at preparing national delicacies while learning about the source of produce and Moroccan culinary culture. From refreshing couscous salads to bubbling vegetable tagines, sit down in the olive garden and indulge in the delightful dishes you have created. Round off the day with a peaceful stroll around the hotel’s beautifully kept gardens before cooling off in one of the refreshing swimming pools.
