Couple questions: Honeymoon planning

What romantic touches can be arranged on a Morocco honeymoon?

Rose petals and candles on arrival, a private rooftop dinner, breakfast in your riad courtyard, a hammam reserved for two, a private dinner in the dunes, a dawn camel ride, a sunrise balloon flight, a musician at the camp, a cake for an anniversary, or a photographer for an hour. Tell us what you would like when you enquire.

The short answer

The earthen ksar of Ait Benhaddou climbing its hill in afternoon light, palms in front and the granary on the crest — Ait Benhaddou, on the road south to the Sahara

In more detail

These details work best when they are planned, not improvised. We confirm each one with the riad, camp or hotel in advance, so it is ready when you arrive. The finest riads like honeymooners and will often add a welcome of their own if they know.

Some of the most requested: a private dinner on the sand at a Sahara camp, with a fire and music; a couples' hammam and argan-oil ritual in a riad's own hammam; a rooftop sundowner over the medina; and a private sunrise camel ride before anyone else is up.

If one of you is planning a surprise for the other, say so in your enquiry and tell us which detail matters most. We handle it quietly with your driver-guide and hosts so it simply happens. Other small things couples like: a tray of pastries and mint tea waiting after a long driving day, a bottle of Moroccan wine at sunset, or a surprise musician at the desert camp. One or two well-chosen touches are better than a long list.
