Group trip along the west coast of Morocco for women
How do you imagine a trip to Morocco? Historic cities, overwhelming scents and colours, or soft sand dunes at sunset? On this group trip for women along the west coast of Morocco, we will discover many facets of a welcoming and magical country. Marrakech will be our gateway and will show us the historic and lively side of the country. We will then take time to learn about the times and spaces of Berber life. We will enjoy a unique experience in a tented camp along the beach: stars, bonfires and music will help us find harmony within the group and with ourselves.
We will test ourselves in different situations, to shake up our routine and enrich ourselves with new emotions and awareness. We will explore the area with all the resources at our disposal: from slow walks in search of a waterfall to adventurous quad bike excursions on the dunes, to evocative horse rides on the beach.
Even if you have never driven a scooter or ridden a horse, you can try out safe experiences suitable for all women who want to bring out their adventurous side.
Itinerary between Marrakech and Essaouira
Is Morocco safe for women? Our local contact is Erika, who began exploring the country on her own in 2006, fell in love with it and decided to stay. No one better than her can help us experience the local culture without fear or preconceptions.
Together with Omar, she will guide us on a journey to discover the most authentic side of Morocco, where they live, work and raise their family with passion. They will welcome us to their ranch, accompany us on excursions and put us in touch with local families who will share their lifestyle with us.

They will take us to the beach and will be patient even with those who have never ridden a horse before.This will be our way of saying goodbye to Essaouira before returning to Marrakech. A quick lunch along the way and then, once settled in the riad, we will have time to lose ourselves in the market teeming with life and artisans, either in a group or on our own.
