A ten-day route through Casablanca, Rabat, Fès, and Marrakech: Morocco’s imperial history, city by city.
A ten-day route through Casablanca, Rabat, Fès, and Marrakech: Morocco’s imperial history, city by city.
Morocco’s imperial cities each held the seat of power at a different point in its history, and each one still carries that weight differently.
This route moves from the Atlantic coast inland to the mountains, taking in Casablanca’s modern skyline, Rabat’s quieter boulevards, Fès’s medieval medina, and Marrakech’s souks and gardens. A private guide accompanies each leg, since Fès’s medina in particular, the world’s largest car-free urban area, was built to be navigated by people who had lived there their whole lives.
Arrival and private transfer into the city.
A visit to the Hassan II Mosque, its minaret rising directly over the Atlantic, one of the few mosques in the country open to non-Muslim visitors.
The second day is left open for the city’s Art Deco architecture and coastal corniche.
Private transfer to Rabat, a quieter and more governmental Morocco than Casablanca or Marrakech.
Time in the Kasbah of the Udayas, along the Bou Regreg river, and through a medina calmer than either of the country’s larger ones.
Three days given to Fès, the heart of the route.
A private guide leads the way through the medina’s nine centuries of history, still organised by guild, still home to working tanneries whose dye pits look almost unchanged from medieval illustrations.
Time is also set aside for the Bou Inania Madrasa and the city’s royal palace gates.
The final leg picks the pace back up after three more contemplative cities.
Souks, the Jardin Majorelle, and rooftop dinners close out the trip, with the last day left open for whatever hasn’t yet been done.
A private cooking class in a Marrakech riad kitchen, market visit included, ending with the meal on a rooftop as the light drops.
Watch Erg Chebbi's dunes shift to copper at sunset, then give way to one of the darkest skies most travellers will ever stand under, from a private camp of your own.
A privately reserved hammam in Marrakech offers a traditional Moroccan cleansing ritual guided by a master practitioner, using black soap, steam, and kessa exfoliation in a historic bathing space. Removed from the public cycle of the hammam, the experience reveals its cultural role with clarity and control.

Greater Kruger is often discussed as a single destination, but it is really two different safari experiences sharing one ecosystem. Kruger National Park and the private reserves along its western boundary sit on unfenced land, so wildlife moves freely between them, yet the rules, the pace, and the feel of a stay differ considerably depending […]

Kruger rewards visitors year-round, but the experience changes considerably depending on when a traveller goes. Wildlife visibility, weather, and crowd levels all shift with the seasons, sometimes in opposite directions from each other, which makes the question of timing more complicated than a single best month.

Kruger National Park is one of Africa’s most accessible wildlife destinations and one of the most rewarding, but first-time safari travellers consistently arrive prepared for the wrong things. The wildlife guides and the packing lists cover the obvious ground; what follows is the part that usually gets left out.

Wine brought most travellers to the Cape Winelands in the first place, but three days here can hold a great deal more: private art collections, working olive groves, cycling through vineyard rows, and a slower pace than a single-day tasting circuit allows.
