honeymoon ideas

Morocco deserts and souks

Jane's verdict

Morocco is a 3-hour flight away, yet it offers a thoroughly exotic honeymoon. Let all your senses be stimulated in the souks of Marrakech and Fes, before retreating to a palatial riad. Romantics will fall in love with the Atlas mountains and coastal gems like Essaouira, not to mention camel trekking and hot air balloon rides for two.

Few places on earth lend themselves to exceptional honeymoons in the way Morocco does.

Let the romanticism and mystery, colour and diversity intoxicate you, safe in the knowledge that all the arrangements are taken care of by the leading specialist company.

We will chat to you to find out exactly what you’re looking for and inspire you with our recommendations – whether it’s for that special suite in a unique riad or a surprise hot-air balloon ride over the Atlas mountains at sunrise.

Perhaps the best way to experience Morocco on honeymoon is to combine a city like Marrakech or Fes with some time relaxing on one of Morocco’s beautiful beaches, a stay in the Atlas mountains or a trip into the Sahara desert.

You can be as active as you want – there’s a 4-day luxury trek in the Atlas mountains for example – or simply soak up the atmosphere from the comfort of your hotel. We’ve picked the very best of Morocco’s stunning riads, kasbahs, boutique hotels and resorts and we know them inside out.

We are all of the firm belief that a honeymoon is a once-in-a-lifetime event and we want to be sure yours is perfect in every way – we’ll even offer restaurants recommendations and tips on the most romantic view points.

We can arrange flight-inclusive honeymoons, multi-centre experiences, hotel-only arrangements and a host of special interest activities.

Check out our suggested itineraries for some inspiration – the 8-night de luxe coast and desert honeymoon, for example, takes in cities, beach and desert in style – and then talk to one of our experts who will create a unique honeymoon just for you.
