As an exotic getaway to Africa, Morocco is sometimes anarchic but always awe-inspiring. From never-ending Saharan dunes to the peaks of the High Atlas Mountains, from richly colorful markets to historically prosperous medinas, Morocco is both intoxicating and overly unique.
Hop on a camel, a horse or a 4×4 to explore the surrounding breathtaking rural vistas; mingle with locals over brewing mint tea;
or learn to make traditional tagine in a private setting.

Day 1 – Fès
After a peaceful overnight flight in a luxurious Gulfstream G-IV, wake up feeling refreshed in lively Fès. Greeted with a selection of fruits and Moroccan sweets, let yourself succumb to the convivial Moroccan hospitality and charm of your host.
After a night of festivities, retire to your lovely accommodations at the beautifully restored Riad Fès, a Relais & Châteaux property in the center of the medina of Fès.

After a delightful lunch set in the beautiful gardens at Fès Café at Jardin des Biehn, continue to a small fondouk to learn how traditional Moroccan tom–tom drums are made.

villagers carrying hand-made rugs or artisans hand-tooling crafts the way it has been done for centuries.
Retreat to your private villa at Amanjena, a lovely complex of gardens and pools hailed as “a world unto itself inside towering ocher walls….with rose-colored arches, columns and fountains” by the New York Times.

Day 6 – Ouarzazate & Skoura Oasis
Your private jet will take you to Ouarzazate to explore the UNESCO-restored Kasbah of Aït Ben Haddou. Film buffs may be surprised to learn that Ouarzazate was the setting for dozens of movies from David Lean’s Lawrence of Arabia to Bertolucci’s The Sheltering Sky.
Continue to Dar Ahlam, an intimate Relais & Châteaux boutique hotel deep in the Skoura Oasis. T
he hotel’s unique décor blending Moroccan, Italian, and Balinese influences.
Enjoy lunch in the sprawling gardens of Dar Ahlam before taking a quick plunge into its inviting pool. Once refreshed, head out by 4×4 to the Valley of the Almond Trees, where you will visit small rural villages and have mint tea in a family home.
