The royal treatment in Morocco
The royal treatment
in Morocco
From its bustling souks to glistening shores, Morocco’s charm has long wooed travellers from far and wide, right down to its own royalty.
With the loveliest of lodgings fit for a monarch, Royal Mansour’s palatial portfolio hits the golden mean between opulence and authenticity. The décor is sumptuous and the service is practically precognitive – oh, and they’re in three beautiful locations beloved by their sovereign owners.
The buzz of Marrakech starts the journey, where a refined riad is the base for explorations from all perspectives. Then, the coast comes calling, with a praise for the Golden Age ignited by Casablanca’s Art Deco gems, and a warming Mediterranean familiarity is found on the beaches of Tamuda Bay.

After settling into our regal abode yesterday afternoon, today it was time to explore – and as a first timer to Marrakech I wanted to see as much as possible. I was expecting the guided tour, but it was a total surprise when the vintage sidecars showed up. Whizzing through the Medina was the perfect way to take it all in and discover some secret places you’d ordinarily miss if you didn’t know where to look. We’re almost ready to head back out for a romantic dinner in the desert under the stars.

I’ve been brought back down to earth from the most amazing morning, quite literally. We set out before dawn to drive into the desert where our treat was waiting – a hot air balloon. It’s something I’ve wanted to do for years, and the accompaniment of breakfast and a mini coffee tasting just made the experience. We’ve got the rest of the day to ourselves now but I’m looking forward to venturing into the Atlas Mountains tomorrow for a picnic.

I can’t help but think it’s wrong that Casablanca is often overlooked for its neighbours, it’s beautiful here. Today we’ve indulged to no end on a foodie tour of the city (sfenj might be my new favourite thing), while tomorrow we’re heading to the country’s capital – Rabat. We’ll be touring sites like the Hassan Tower, the Mohammed V Mausoleum, the Chellah site, and the Kasbah of the Oudayas.

We’ve been relaxing in Tamuda Bay for the last two days, all too easy to do with the beach being on our doorstep, but it’s time to get out and explore. Today we’re heading to Tangier for a tour. I’ve only ever read about the city, so I’m intrigued to see how it stacks up in real life. Sadly, tomorrow is the last day but it’s a good one, we’re off to Chefchaouen, or the ‘Blue City’, a must-do while in this area.

Soar over Marrakech in a hot air balloonAt the crack of dawn, take flight over Marrakech’s countryside in a hot air balloon. As the world below begins to wake up, glide gracefully over the Atlas Mountains and sleepy Berber villages before breakfast (including four different coffees) is served mid-air.

Visit the ‘Blue City’ of ChefchaouenDespite its name meaning ‘horns’ in Rif Berber thanks to the mountains that flank it, Chefchaouen couldn’t be a more peaceful place. Famous for its vibrant blue hue, a rich heritage has left it scattered with mosques and Andalusian gardens that call out to be explored. After wondering the town, head to the nearby Kasbah – complete with a Berber museum and pretty gardens of its own.

Hopping from souks, to markets, to cultural sites like the Kasbah, the uniqueness of this melting pot means there’s something new around every corner.

Take a sidecar around Marrakech and dine under the starsMarrakech is brimming with sights, and there’s no better way to get around them all than in a vintage sidecar. Zip through the Medina’s alleys with a guide in search of hidden gardens and historic buildings, meeting some locals along the way. Later, a camel ride through the desert at dusk ends at a private tent set up for dinner and stargazing.
