YOGA HOLIDAY TO MOROCCO 18th-24th SEPTEMBER 2023.
Authentic Two Destination Yoga Holiday.
Marrakech and the High Atlas Mountains
With Lizzie Eggerton and Jo Niblett
This is a yoga holiday perfect for anyone seeking yoga and adventure in equal measure…
We warmly welcome you to join us on an authentic Moroccan adventure, where you will have the opportunity to explore all things Moroccan… a unique blend of culture, nature and wellbeing. Reconnect with life affirming experiences whilst enjoying the company of likeminded travellers.
The holiday will include a 4 night stay in Marrakech. We will be staying in a traditional riad in the Medina, which is the Old Islamic capital, enclosed by ramparts and gates.
Whilst in Marrakech you will have plenty of opportunity to explore the labyrinth of souks, follow the aromas of mint tea & local cooking which will lead you past hammams (bath houses), spice and textile souks that line the maze of cobbled lanes. You certainly won’t be short of things to do…choose from a vast selection of famous cultural sites, including El Badhi Palace, Jardin Majorelle, Koutoubia Mosque, Le Jardin Secret, to name but a few. (Jo will be available to guide you & offer advice…. )
The beautiful riad we will be staying in offers a roof top terrace, perfect for the twice daily yoga sessions. Located downstairs you will have use of a central plunge pool, ideal for cooling down after a busy day exploring!
There will also be plenty of opportunities to treat your self to some traditional spa treatments at a local hammam.
A short evening stroll will lead you to Jemaa el Fnaa the main square of Marrakech, which becomes even more vibrant once the sun goes down.The square transforms from a bustling daytime market into a night time spectacular, teeming with musicians, snake charmers, dancers, acrobats and street food. Great fun… never dull!
For the next part of the trip, we will venture out of the hustle of Marrakech, taking a journey into contrasting green & fertile landscapes to explore some more of Morocco’s hidden gems. Our destination a traditional Berber village, nestled in the foothills of the Atlas Mountains, surrounded by snow capped summits…. stunning! Here we will spend 2 nights reconnecting with a simpler way of life… soaking up the breath taking views and fresh air!
Optional guided mountain hikes and cookery lessons will be on offer along with daily roof top yoga sessions….
For the final part of the trip, we head back to the heart of Marrakech for our last night in magical Morocco… with just enough time to do any last minute shopping and perhaps one more tagine for the road!
