Marrakech

— Journey —

Jet 2 h 30 from Ajaccio

Marrakech — the Red City — is two and a half hours by jet from Ajaccio, a Mediterranean crossing into another world of ochre ramparts, palm groves and the snow-capped Atlas beyond. FFGR coordinates with partner operators for arrival at La Mamounia and the Royal Mansour, private riad stays in the Medina, and excursions to the Agafay desert and the Ourika valley. The souks of the Medina, the Jardin Majorelle, and the Yves Saint Laurent museum reward the cultivated visitor; the rooftop terraces above the Jemaa el-Fnaa offer the most theatrical sunsets in North Africa. The Maison's standard travels intact across the sea.
