Travel to Essaouira
Today you leave Marrakech and head west to the Atlantic coast and the former pirate’s lair of Essaouira, one of Morocco’s most attractive coastal cities (approx. 3 hours). The wild waves of the Atlantic crash remorselessly onto the rocky coastline of this old pirate’s hideout. The maze of narrow lanes with tiny cafes look out onto small squares encircled by Portuguese, Berber and French battlements. Two fortresses look out over the ocean and on an offshore island stands another, even larger castle. As befits a seaport and large swathe of sandy beach, the pace of life is more relaxed here and the whitewashed streets lend a truly Mediterranean air to the city. Hotel - 2 nights (B)
Day
+2
Explore Essaouira
We recommend a stroll around the lively old port which is full of colour and interest. The early morning is the best time - when fishermen can be seen bringing in their catch or mending their nets. The harbour was once the lair of pirates who sailed out to plunder richly laden ships that passed along the coast. The day is free to relax so you can wander as you please. Take a leisurely stroll along the ramparts, visit the little workshops that specialise in ornate inlaid work using thuya wood (an aromatic local conifer) or enjoy a meal of freshly cooked sardines down on the quayside (make sure you agree the price first!). For those wanting to stretch their legs there is a large expansive beach with a crumbling castle at the far end said to have inspired Jimi Hendrix to write Castles made of Sand – real aficionados can continue their walk to Diabet, the village where he used to live.

Atlas Mountain Retreat Extension
Enjoy stunning views and great walks from your retreat in the foothills of the Atlas mountains. Sip mint tea on the terrace, hike in the surrounding valleys or just stroll around the lovely gardens filled with roses and citrus trees.
The price is based on 2 passengers travelling. A supplement will apply if only 1 person. Contact our Travel Consultants for more information.

Drive into the Atlas Mountains
About an hour and a half’s drive south takes you up into the High Atlas Mountains. The scenery is fairly monotonous until you reach Tahanoute crossing the Haouz plain. From here you rise through the gorge of Moulay Brahim until you reach Asni. En route you can see salt leaching out of the ground giving some of the mountain sides a white dusting. The views get more and more impressive until you arrive at Ouirgane, a beautiful mountain village in a wonderful valley location. There are great views from here and wonderful almond and walnut groves that blossom in the spring changing the colours of the mountain sides dramatically. Hotel - 3 nights (B)
Ksar Shama - Set in the heart of the Atlas mountains, the Ksar Shama's location offers beautiful views of the often snow-capped peaks of Mount Toubkal. All rooms are built with traditional adobe walls and wooden ceiling rafters and are equipped with air conditioning and en suite bathrooms.

Explore the Atlas Mountains
The High Atlas region is a mix of fertile valleys and soaring snow-capped peaks. Flat-roofed Berber houses built from local materials huddle together to create fortress-like villages that blend almost seamlessly into the mountainside. The many trails and tracks which criss-cross the area provide numerous opportunities for walkers - and the ideal way to make the most of this stunning area is on foot. You can do as much or as little as you want. You can explore the nearby village and surrounding mountains on short morning and afternoon walks, take a full day walk with the option of a picnic lunch and mule support. Alternatively you may choose to relax on the terrace and recharge your batteries by soaking up the mountain surroundings. (B)

Back to Marrakech
Today you transfer down from the mountains back to Marrakech airport where the trip ends for Land Only clients and those on group flights proceed on your flight home. (B)
