Immersive Students Tour in Marrakech Itinerary
Medina Magic & The First Bite
Your immersive students tour in Marrakech begins the moment you step off the plane and meet our local team. After dropping your bags at a Riad in the old city, we head straight into an immersive experience designed to wake up your senses. Our welcome dinner isn’t held in a stiff restaurant, but in a lively medina spot where you will learn the social rules of the Moroccan table. You will taste slow-cooked tagines and fresh salads while hearing the call to prayer echo over the rooftops. It is the ultimate welcome for our students on the immersive students tour in Marrakech.
Overnight: Riad in MarrakechAtlas Peaks & Village Hospitality
We leave the city heat behind and head for the cool, crisp air of the High Atlas Mountains. Today on our immersive students tour in Marrakech is all about seeing the real local life in Morocco as we trek through the valleys surrounding Imlil. You will walk along ancient stone paths through walnut groves, guided by a local mountain expert who knows the history of every ridge. We make a stop at a local Berber cooperative to see the raw, traditional work that goes into making Argan oil. The highlight of the day is sitting down for lunch in a family home perched on the mountainside. Eating together in a private home offers a genuine connection that most Morocco tours for students simply cannot provide.
