MOROCCON GLAMPING

Combine authenticity and luxury with a traditional Bedouin tent, but with all modern conveniences, in the quietude of the desert. Adorned with plush cushions, bohemian furniture and colourful lanterns, you can experience the spirit of the Berber, without compromising on comfort. Relaxing under a canopy of stars, listening to the folkloric sounds of Gnawa music, with the rolling dunes as a backdrop and the aromas of aromatic spices and Maghrebi mint tea floating in the air, is an experience you will treasure forever.

Tea in the Sahara anyone?

HISTORY

Live free or die trying. The Berbers ‘’Imazighen’’ refer to themselves as “free people”. Their history dates back to prehistoric times and they fought for their freedom against the Romans, Arabs, and French. Despite repeated colonisation attempts, their language and culture has remained intact and their history continues to be recorded.

From the Phoenicians to the Byzantine Empire and Saadi dynasty, join us for an epic journey to discover the people, places and events that shaped Morocco’s history and heritage.
