Full-Day Excursion:
City of Tiznit, Pottery Shop, Rasmouka Dunes,
Youseff Bin Tachfine Dam + Camel Ride
Experience the spirit of the desert spirit — its silence, magic dunes, and landscapes unlike anywhere else in the world. Venture south of Agadir in a 4x4 to the south of Agadir to discover a village of seamen, banana plantations, a sandbank end of the Atlantic coast and enchanting dunes, where a brief camel ride awaits you. You’ll also visit the Youssef Ben Tachfine Dam and travel to a Berber village where you’ll have a special invitation for a traditional lunch with a local family, before continuing to Tiznit to visit the ramparts of this extraordinary city, famous for its silver jewelry.
Experience a magical sunrise over Agadir with Morocco’s premier eco-conscious hot air balloon team. Begin with a morning pickup and warm mint tea as your balloon is prepared, then lift off for a serene hour-long flight over the desert plains and mountains of the stunning Massa region. After landing, you’ll receive a flight certificate in elegant Arabic calligraphy — a memorable keepsake of this unforgettable adventure.
This optional experience costs an additional $225.
Optional Experience: Hot Air Balloon Ride
Experience a traditional Moroccan tea service, a warm gesture of hospitality where fragrant green tea is poured from high above to aerate the brew and create its signature light foam. It’s an intentional ritual meant to welcome guests, encourage connection, and honor the moment.
Moroccan Tea Ceremony
Enjoy a lively and authentic Berber folk band performance, filled with rhythmic drums, traditional instruments, and soulful vocals. This vibrant experience showcases centuries-old musical traditions and warm cultural hospitality, creating an unforgettable atmosphere of celebration and connection.
Berber Folk Band Experience
Therapeutic Hammam Spa Package
Step into the serenity of a Moroccan hammam, where warm steam envelops your body and eases your mind. As tension melts away, each soothing rinse restores clarity and softness to your skin. This ritual also includes a purifying body scrub and a green clay and medicinal plant body wrap — leaving you feeling clear, relaxed, and completely refreshed.
Beauty in Belonging Workshop
Dive into one of our greatest human strengths and reconnect with your truest sense of belonging. Guided by Adam, this transformative heart-opening workshop blends group discussions and partner exercises, helping you overcome inner obstacles and rediscover the art of truly being seen.
Yoga, Meditation + Journaling
Step into a space of reflection and renewal, where you can find clarity and peace. Through meditation and journaling, you’ll connect with your inner world and gain insight, while yoga and mindful movement awaken and energize your body. This practice nurtures presence, self-discovery, and a deeper connection to your retreat journey.
