Chauffeur at your Disposal

Have a car and driver during your stay

The convenience and sheer, unadulterated luxury of having your own car and driver should not be underestimated. For the determined shopper and sightseer, there is no better way to maximise your time spent visiting the town. In the evenings, also, should you go out, it is always nice to have your car waiting for you when you leave the restaurant.

There are also a great many things to do and see outside of Marrakech, including golf, skiing, trips into the mountains or into the desert, or day picnics in the countryside. We are delighted to offer our clients a great many possibilities. For the latest prices, please contact the concierge at the hotel where you will be staying.

Popular activities include:

Golf

There are several world class golf courses around Marrakech, most no more than a 10 to 15 minute drive from the hotel. Let us organise your tee times and transportation.

Mountain Walks

Berber villages and mountain trails await. Visit the birthplace of the Almohad Dynasty, founders of Marrakech, and the Tin Mal mosque in the mountains before a picnic lunch nearby. Visit the wonderful Kasbah du Toubkal and enjoy lunch on their panoramic terrace.

Shopping & Sightseeing

Our concierge team would be delighted to help you work out an itinerary to suit your interests, and can provide practical advice on where to shop, what to see, where to eat, etc.
