A honeymoon in Morocco mixes romance and adventure in a way few countries can: a quiet riad with a rooftop terrace in Marrakech, a road over the Atlas Mountains, and a private tent in the Sahara where the only sound at night is the wind on the dunes. We plan every honeymoon as a private trip with your own driver, so you set the pace and the timetable.
Our suggested honeymoon in Morocco
- Days 1–2 – Marrakech. Arrival and check-in at a boutique riad. A guided walk through the medina, the Bahia Palace and the Majorelle Garden, then dinner on a rooftop facing the Koutoubia.
- Day 3 – Atlas Mountains and Ait Ben Haddou. Over the Tizi n Tichka pass to the kasbah of Ait Ben Haddou and a night in the Dades Valley.
- Days 4–5 – Sahara. Camel ride at sunset to a luxury camp in Erg Chebbi, with a private tent, en-suite bathroom and dinner by the fire. A free day for a 4x4 tour, sandboarding or simply doing nothing.
- Day 6 – Todra Gorge to Ouarzazate. The canyon walls of Todra and the Valley of Roses on the way back west.
- Day 7 – Back to Marrakech or on to Essaouira for a few days by the ocean.
Romantic extras we can add
- Sunrise hot-air balloon flight over the palm groves of Marrakech
- Private hammam and massage for two
- Candlelit dinner in the dunes, away from the camp
- Two or three nights by the sea in Essaouira
Where to stay on a honeymoon in Morocco
We choose small places with character: a riad with only a handful of rooms around a courtyard garden in Marrakech, a kasbah hotel with mountain views in the Dades Valley and a luxury camp with private tents in the Erg Chebbi dunes. If you prefer a modern resort feel for a few nights, we can add a beach hotel in Essaouira or Agadir at the end of the trip. In every place we ask for the best available room for honeymooners, and we let the hosts know you are celebrating.
Many couples also ask how much free time they will have. On a honeymoon in Morocco we keep the mornings slow, never schedule early starts unless there is a sunrise worth it, and leave evenings free for long dinners.

Honeymoon in Morocco: frequently asked questions
When is the best time for a honeymoon in Morocco?
March to May and September to November bring warm days, cool desert nights and beautiful light. Winter is quieter and very romantic in the desert, with fires and blankets at the camp.
Can we have a private tent in the Sahara?
Yes. Every honeymoon in Morocco we plan includes a private tent for two, and we can choose a luxury camp with an en-suite bathroom and a king-size bed.
Can you add surprises for the couple?
Of course – flowers in the room, a cake, a private dinner in the dunes or a photographer for an hour. Tell us your ideas and we will organise them discreetly.
