While most travelers flock to Marrakech’s souks or take a camel ride into the dunes, Morocco hides countless lesser-known treasures—especially for women seeking meaningful connection.
- Women’s Hammam in Fes: Tucked behind the tannery district lies Hammam Moulay Idriss, run by a collective of local women. You’ll experience the true ritual of Moroccan bathing and even learn the art of preparing beldi soap using olives and herbs.
- Spice Customization Experience: Near the Mellah (Jewish Quarter) in Marrakech, a quiet herbalist shop lets you create your own attars—natural perfumes blended to your mood and health. It's also a great place to pick up locally made argan oil directly from Berber women’s cooperatives.
- Desert Nights with a Storyteller: In Merzouga, we partner with nomadic women to host nightly fire-side storytelling circles. You’ll hear traditional Amazigh legends passed down from mothers to daughters—some never written, only spoken.
- Rural Weaving Villages: On the way from Ouarzazate to Fes, a detour to the Aït Bouguemez Valley allows a visit to women’s weaving workshops where you can learn the meanings of rug symbols and even try the loom yourself.
Tip: Ask your guide for a visit to the Cooperative Tisseuses in Tinghir, a women-run embroidery group supporting girls' education through craft.
