The Best Private Trips to Book for a Special Occasion

If you want to celebrate a big occasion by embarking on a truly immersive, large-scale voyage of discovery, then we think our 11-day tour of Morocco does the trick just fine. The diversity of this country is astounding, be it culturally or naturally. Our tour includes city fun in Casablanca and ancient Fes, as well as an unforgettable day trip to the unique blue city of Chefchaouen. You’ll visit ancient Roman ruins and have a home-cooked meal with a local family, before venturing deep into the Sahara for a night under the stars at a luxury desert camp. Gather around the fire for wine tasting and stargazing, before rising early for a sunrise camel ride. Next up is the epic gorges and rural Berber villages of the Atlas Mountains, which we’ll explore en route to Marrakech, where mouthwatering experiences await, including a street food tour and a Moroccan cooking masterclass.

Sometimes the best way to celebrate a big occasion is simply by ticking off that thing that’s been on your bucket list for decades. Well, that’s where our comprehensive nine-day tour of Egypt comes in. This itinerary is like a hall of fame for travel experiences, including visits to the Great Pyramids, the Sphinx and a guided tour of Cairo, as well as a visit to the brand new Grand Egyptian Museum. You’ll also explore Luxor Temple illuminated by candlelight, dine on authentic Nubian cuisine and work on your haggling skills in the Souq of Luxor. The second half of this trip is spent gentling floating down the Nile on a luxury river cruise – when you’re not sipping cocktails and sunbathing on top deck, you’ll be hopping off-board to go kayaking along the world’s largest river. The beauty of booking this trip private? You can easily extend the trip with a visit to the historic site of Abu Simbel.
