10 NIGHTS
Do yourself a favour and book this trip! You won’t be disappointed. Jess has taken so much time and care in curating an exceptional, bespoke Moroccan experience...her connections and personal love affair with Morocco ensure that you will see the very best of everything. You will leave with so much colour in your heart and an abundance of vintage Moroccan goodies in your suitcase. I couldn’t recommend this trip more highly!
Jess' retreat exceeded all my expectations and now Morocco is one of my most favourite, treasured destinations I have ever visited! Everything was perfect from the spectacular and homely accommodation, delicious food, included excursions & experiences, fabulous shopping and comfortable transport. I felt safe and informed throughout the trip due to the strong connections Jess has formed with her Moroccan contacts over the years of her travelling there. Her knowledge and passion for this beautiful country really shines through.
Cactusilk's tour of Morocco was fabulous! Amazing food, beautiful accommodation and lots of sight seeing all with a relaxed feel
The tour with Cactusilk was absolutely amazing! Very well organised with plenty of pre-trip information and advice...Our host Jess and local guide Salah were very knowledgeable, friendly and trustworthy. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this trip!
This was my first trip to Morocco and it was absolutely amazing, totally exceeded all my expectations. Can’t wait to go again!
This was a brilliant tour that exceeded my expectations by far. The group size was perfect. Morocco is a beautiful & diverse county!
About Cactusilk
My name is Jess and I established Cactusilk in 2019 after falling head over heels in love with all things Moroccan.
It all started in 2018 when I joined a friend on a totally indulgent retreat...10 days of pure Moroccan immersion!
Needless to say I was hooked and Cactusilk emerged not long after.
I now split my time between Australia and Morocco and have built some amazing relationships with suppliers and friends on the ground in Marrakech, Essaouira and the Atlas Mountains.
My experience comes from many adventures as a solo traveller. I am so excited to share my love of this intoxicating country with my retreat guests!
