"How can I best describe the value you provided to this experience? It is the difference between managing your stocks on e-trade vs. placing them in the trusted hands of a private financial advisor. I will never gamble with my precious vacation time again. You brought so much to this trip that we could not have found on our own, and we cannot even count the moments that our family will never forget. Thank you!"

Morocco
From the chic gourmet restaurants and riads of the cities to the exotic Kasbahs of the desert oases and Atlas mountains, Morocco is as diverse a destination as you're bound to find.
Rich in culture and sumptuous in colours, textures, sounds and scents, this is a wonderful place for just about any traveller. A place to uncover gastronomic indulgence, soft adventure, contemporary design and ancient traditions.
A postcard from Morocco...
We made the unbelievable journey through the Atlas Mountains today.
Jaw-dropping views invited us at every turn (and there were lots of them along the way), from the staggering snow-capped peaks to the clustered Berber villages. The local kids were especially curious about us and eager to wave us into every town along the way. I loved each and every minute of the drive.
Lunch was a delightful and unforgettable surprise. A picnic had been set up for us in the desert, complete with a tented table, Persian carpets and linen table cloths. The meal itself was a divine buffet of sumptuous tagines, salads and fruit.
We spent the last few nights in an idyllic restored Kasbah located in a natural oasis. Honestly it was so stylish and atmospheric, a scene ripped out of the pages of the Arabian Nights.
We are now in Essaouira on the coast of the Atlantic Ocean. Our evening walk led us along a magnificent stretch of deserted beach. Tomorrow it's time to explore the souks and the spice market.
I'm officially addicted to the mint tea here...must bring some home!
Let us know if a private picnic in the desert sounds appetizing.
