Your journey begins in the vibrant heart of the Kingdom.

• Wander through the electric blue Majorelle Garden and the neighboring Yves Saint Laurent Museum, celebrating the intersection of high fashion and Moroccan soul.

• Your first two nights are spent in a luxury Riad, a peaceful oasis hidden behind the thick walls of the bustling Medina.

Day 3: Gateway to the Sky (Imlil)

Leave the heat of the city for the crisp air of the High Atlas Mountains.

• Arrive in Imlil ($1,740\text{m}$), the base for Mount Toubkal. To reach your lodge, enjoy a scenic mule trek or a light walk through terraced fields.

• Dine on a sun-drenched terrace with a home-cooked Berber lunch, overlooking the snow-capped peaks of the Toubkal Massif.

Day 4: Berber Heartlands & Village Life

A day of gentle immersion into the "real" Morocco.

Day 5: The Tizi n'Test – A Masterclass in Engineering

Prepare for one of the most spectacular mountain passes in the world.

• Visit the Tinmel Mosque, an architectural jewel built in 1148. It is one of only two mosques in Morocco open to non-Muslims, offering a rare look at Almohad architecture.

• Descend the winding roads into the fertile Souss Valley, watching the landscape transform from jagged rock to lush citrus groves.

Day 6: Taroudant – The Saffron & Silver City

Often called "Little Marrakech," Taroudant is a hidden treasure untouched by mass tourism.

Day 7–9: Essaouira – The Wind City of the Atlantic

• For the adventurous, we can arrange kite-surfing lessons (the city is the wind capital of Africa) or a sunset horseback ride along the dunes of Mogador.

Day 10: Liquid Gold & The Return to the Red City

As we wind our way back to Marrakech, we travel through the rare Argan biosphere.

• NKeep your eyes peeled for the famous "tree-climbing goats" who perch on Argan branches to eat the fruit.

• Visit a Women’s Argan Cooperative to see the labor-intensive process of cracking the nuts by hand to produce "Liquid Gold" for cosmetics and culinary use.
