Traveling Solo?

You’re in good company. Solo travelers typically make up about half of our small groups. With curiosity at the center of our experiences, there’s a natural camaraderie that develops over the course of a trip. We have two options for you: 

Shared Room (subject to the latest Covid-19 guidelines): You'll be matched with another solo traveler of the same gender.

Private Room: Have your own room, subject to availability, for a supplemental cost of $1160. After booking your trip, please request a private room when you fill out your traveler information form and we’ll add the option to your booking and final balance. The capacity for private rooms is limited and will be granted on a first-come, first-serve basis.*

*Single supplement accommodations are not guaranteed on Day 4, Day 5 and Day 8 of the trip and you may be paired with another guests of the same gender. 

 

Activity Level

Travelers should feel comfortable walking four to six miles each day, with lots of time spent moving around and on your feet. You should be comfortable walking on both flat and uneven ground, as well as stairs. Drive time will average between 1 to 3 hours a day, with two long drive days ranging from 4 to 6 hours.

Arrival & Departure

Our trip arrives and departs from Marrakech, which is served by the Menara Airport (RAK). We will provide an airport transfer to your Marrakech trip hotel.*

You may depart at any time on the last day of the tour.  Afternoon arrival and departure are ideal to get the most from our trip’s activities and meals. An airport departure transfer is included*.

*Airport transfers are only provided if arriving & departing on the trip dates, or if pre/post arrangements have been made through Atlas Obscura. 

Accommodations

We will be splitting our time between desert resorts with pools and full amenities and riads in cities. Riads are Moroccan guesthouses that are built into traditional courtyard homes with gardens. They are intimate, family-run lodgings with personalized, artistic flourishes, like local artworks and crafts. Some guesthouses/riads are unable to supply air conditioning.  We will also be staying in the desert for two nights at two different camps. The first tented camp will have en-suite bathroom/showers and eco-friendly toilets in all tents. The second tented camp will include a hand basin in the tent, but will not have en-suite bathrooms. There will be a designated block in the camp area including several shower and basin stations with hot water.
