TERRE’S TOP 10 ROMANTIC THINGS TO DO IN MARRAKECH
• Watch the sunrise or sunset over Marrakech floating in a hot-air balloon for a bird’s-eye view of the city with the snow-capped Atlas Mountains and expansive desert as the backdrop. Don‘t forget the champagne!
• Indulge in a couples hammam spa treatment at TERRE’s Sultry Spa, where the unique octagon-shaped hammam is the only one in Marrakech that allows couples to experience the centuries-old steam bath ritual together. Enjoy a signature Octogone Royal Hammam and Floral Bath ritual where couples unwind in the steam of the hammam, before a relaxing ginger scrub followed by four-hands body massages using essential oils and fresh mint. The treatment is capped off in a bath scented with rose petals while sipping pomegranate and lemon juice cocktails.
• Using Marrakech as a base, set out on a camel trek across the stunning Sahara with a crew of Berber and Tuareg guides
• Pack a picnic lunch and go on a day excursion to the Atlas Mountains visiting picturesque villages and artisans markets along the way or head towards the sea to explore the coastline of Morocco and the charming beach in Essaouira.
• Take a sunset ride through the West Palmeraie desert in a calèche (horse-drawn carriage). TERRE can prepare a pre-dinner cocktail or mint tea and Moroccan cookies to enjoy during the ride.
