Who is this trip for?
We are adventurous women, mainly in our 40s to 60's, who like to move moderately and take care of ourselves. This journey is truly a bucket list experience. You will stay in beautiful accommodations, be touched by the local culture, experience awe from the sheer beauty of the land, eat divine food, and everything will be expertly planned for you. But, our style of travel is not for everyone. This trip has a few long drives (see itinerary) and hotel changes to and from the desert. Our itinerary is meant for someone with a sense of adventure and flexibility.
Resilience is key in Morocco—a change in the weather, occasional power outages, or road detours may be part of the experience and affect our itinerary. Our excellent guides and driver will ensure we’re safe, but we approach this as adventure travelers, open to the unexpected and adaptable. Our hikes are moderate; they don’t require advanced skills, but you’ll need hiking boots, poles, and some stamina.
Your Host
Hi, I'm Stacey, a physician, health coach and lifelong adventure traveller. When I first started my wellness adventure travel company, I knew that Morocco would be my first destination. This country is exotic and exciting with stunning natural beauty, exquisite artisans, and unparalleled hospitality.
In curating this trip, I partnered with local outfitters I have gotten to know personally and handpicked my favorite accommodations, activities and experiences to craft this unforgettable journey. Join me and a community of women to experience the magic of Morocco.
Our Riads and Hotels
MARRAKESH RIAD
MARRAKESH LUXURY RESORT
DADES LUXURY HOTEL
We are starting our adventure staying in a Riad in Marrakesh. A riad is a traditional Moroccan house or palace with the style and architecture of the region. They are centered around a garden or courtyard and adorned with intricate mosaics, carved wood, and other ornate decorations. Many have been converted into boutique hotels for a unique cultural immersion while providing a tranquil setting. Our Riad has a rooftop terrace with a small pool and lounge areas. Each room in the Riad is different. Some are larger, and some are smaller. Attempts will be made to balance out rooms sizes throughout the trip, but there may be variability. . Our hotel in Dades is a stunning boutique 5-star hotel where traditional Moroccan decor meets luxury. There is a full spa, hammam, yoga room, and rooftop bar with beautiful mountain views. Again, rooms will be of different sizes. We end our adventure together at a beautiful 5 star luxury resort back in Marrakesh. This resort is ranked amongst the top hotels in Northern Africa by Tripadvisor and Conde Nast Traveler.
Testimonials
-Agapi Bell
This was an amazing trip! We truly dove into the people, land and culture of Morocco. From the cities' Medinas to the sands of the Sahara our minds and bodies were immersed. We hiked gorges and traversed farms when we weren't marveling at historic sites and Medina shops. What a complete and breathtaking trip. Stacey did an incredible job of curating daily tours and mixing in time to reflect. She also found Riyads, hotels and restaurants that were perfect for us! I am so grateful for this trip and all I experienced.

The hiking is considered moderate. The longest is around 5 miles with an 800 foot climb and a little rock scramble. We will have a few guides to accommodate different paces and there are options. Good hiking boots and hiking poles are suggested.
Riads are stunning and unique accommodations, each with limited rooms that vary in size and layout. Some rooms on this trip are larger than others, and bed sizes may differ. Since we’ll be staying in five different places, I’ll do my best to make the arrangements as fair as possible throughout the journey.
