This 11-day Morocco tour threads together three imperial cities, spice-scented souks, Hollywood-famous Sahara Desert dunes, the Atlas Mountains, and coastal Casablanca — all with five-star stays and a generous helping of experiences you won’t find in a brochure. Wander the labyrinthine Medina of Fez with an expert guide, learn to make Moroccan tagine with a local chef in a private riad (home), soak up Marrakech’s rooftops and rhythms, then glamp under the stars in a sea of sand dunes in the Sahara, rounding off the journey on the sun-soaked Atlantic coast. From Royal Hammam rituals to camel rides and palm-dotted oasis lunches, every stop is wrapped in comfort and character — with your Art In Voyage hosts handling all the details.

A romantic hideaway within the walled medina of Marrakech and at the beating heart of the kasbah, La Sultana puts you just moments from the royal palaces, museums, and souks of magical Marrakech.
Inside, authentic Moroccan cuisine, rooms, and suites with terraces and an Argan-infused spa are standout features of this boutique retreat. This is a small, luxury hotel that knows how to spoil its guests, especially in the spa. From almonds to dates, prickly pears to Damask roses, the alchemist-like therapists make the most of Morocco’s natural treasures. There’s a Jacuzzi, two hammams and sauna here too – not to mention candlelit pools. This exotic ambiance carries through to the other spaces in and around La Sultana, especially the treasure box bedrooms. Their high vaulted ceilings, intricately carved woods, marble, and copper echo the hotel’s rich heritage.

Terracotta-colored stone meets cerulean skies as this traditional Kasbah cuts an imposing shape across the landscape. Unwind in a haven of manicured lawns and fragrant almond blossoms.

On the fringes of the Moroccan desert and the outskirts of Ouzarzate , shaded by the palms, lies Dar Ahlam. Terracotta-colored stone meets cerulean skies as this traditional Kasbah cuts an imposing shape across the landscape. Unwind in a haven of manicured lawns and fragrant almond blossoms. Or step out into the wilderness of the desert for a night under the stars, where you will soak up the elegant beauty in the privacy of your own luxury tent. The décor changes with the seasons, sumptuous fabrics, and colors bringing the environment to life. Days at Dar Ahlam are long and luxurious. Without the distractions of television and technology, you can really unwind. Instead, indulge in a massage under the olive trees or head off for refreshments by the river. Spend a balmy evening atop the Kasbah, aperitif in hand, before feasting on a freshly prepared supper under the vast sky.
