Overview
Highlights
- Encounter the nomadic tribe of the Sahara once travelled the desert in great numbers, but after invasions and wars they have been reduced to small groups, scattered across the sandy hills of this unforgiving desert.
- Explore myriad labyrinth of ancient alleys, where artisans hammer, weld, scuplt and, of course, seduce passers by. Our guides will take you directly through this magical, ancient marketplace.
- Visit Marrakesh, a city steeped in ancient artistry that continues to thrive, including zellij, terra cotta tilework covered with enamel in the form of chips set into plaster. This form of Islamic art is one of the main characteristics of Moroccan architecture.
- Deep inside the highest dunes in the Sahara lies Erg Chigaga, eight luxury tents, replete with king beds, egyptiancotton and wall to wall kilims; a romantic hideaway with open bar and divine cuisine; Sahara in style.
