Summary

Why we love this tour

Join us on a journey of sisterhood immersed in the sites, sounds, and culture of Morocco in Marrakesh, a Desert Camp, and the High Atlas Mountains.

We will journey from the bustling sites and sounds of Marrakesh, to the quiet glamor of a desert camp, and finally to our traditional Kasbah set amidst Berber life. The sequencing of our travels allows us to journey inward as we experience different landscapes around and within. Each day will offer opportunities to commune with the spaces we occupy, including customized guided hikes and immersions with local culture as well as other options. This is an immersive experience in the culture and nature of the surrounding area.

This tour is a friends-and-family tour, without additional programming, and is priced accordingly. The group leader, Unquote Travel co-founder Paige Conner Totaro, will assist all guests with planning any additional outings or activities. There will be plenty of time for shopping, including a coaching session on how to haggle with vendors in the medina (Don’t be intimidated! It’s expected and it’s fun!).
