Marrakech
Berber village life
Gifts for the Berber children When we stay in the Berber village we have arranged an opportunity to give some small gifts to the children of the village. You can bring some children's clothes that are no longer required or some pens, pencils and paper for use in the school. (Most children go to school, except around harvest time, when they are needed in the fields.)
The adventure continues when we visit the old port and fishing village of Essaouira, once the base for pirates, and in the 60s a hippy hangout and favourite of Jimi Hendrix. Essaouira is now a great place to explore the narrow streets or enjoy the wide sandy beach. The resort welcomes visitors, many Moroccans holiday there. This is a far cry from the more touristy beach resorts. From here we take a trip out to Sidi Kaouaki for a camel ride (2 nights Full Board). The Mystery and Magic of Marrakech For our last night we return to the magic of Marrakech. This time we will stay in a Riad right in the heart of the old city (Medina) of Marrakech and have a last chance to haggle for treasures from the souks. The rooms in the Riad are arranged around a courtyard. All the rooms are en suite. The food in the Riad is superb and the buffet breakfast offers a wide choice of hot and cold options. Sadly this will be our last night before our departure the following day (1 night Half Board). |

We fly to Marrakech and spend two nights Half Board in a traditionally-designed but newly-built Riad with swimming pool, a few kilometres outside of Marrakech with en suite rooms. Riad M'Hidou has a swimming pool and is a peaceful haven. During the day we will organise a trip into the bustling city of Marrakech, and take a look around the souks, bazaars and market stalls in the Medina. We will marvel at the story-tellers, colourful water sellers, the snake charmers and acrobats before returning for a dip in the pool and our evening meal in the peace and tranquillity of our Riad (2 nights Half Board).
We then transfer to the foothills of the High Atlas mountains and stay in a Gite (village house) with a local family. Here the accommodation will be shared and basic. We will see how other people live in the world. The welcome is wonderful and hospitable. You will need to bring sleeping bags. All our food is prepared for us by our hosts and is freshly-made from local produce. Vegetarians, as well as meat eaters, can enjoy the traditional tajines (meat, fish or vegetable dishes cooked in traditional conical-shaped pots), couscous, salads, rice as well as great soups and fresh fruits (2 nights Full Board).

Our holiday to Morocco incorporates a Berber village, Marrakech and Essaouira on the coast. We have a walking holiday in Mallorca, staying in Port de Soller and the monastery at Lluc. Our walking weekends in the UK are aimed mainly at single travellers aged between 33 and 58 (older or younger people and couples are welcome if they feel comfortable with the group).
