BEST VACATION EVER!!! Imagine going on a trip and all you have to do is book your flight. Amirah leaves no stone unturned. From the moment you land, you are taken care of. The villas, the sites, THE FOOD. Literally everything was amazing. The company?? Second to none. Not sure what sorcery Amirah performed but our group was SUPERB! I’ve been home for a month and I still think about this trip EVERYDAY. 10/10 would most definitely recommend.

I am trying to keep this short, because the experience was enough to write a few chapters in a novel. Short version: I LOVED IT! Everything about this trip was memorable, from the luxury villa, the chef made food, the cooking class, shopping, to glamping in the dessert. I could not have asked for a better time than the one I had in Marrakech. Amirah and Jerrell are some really dope people to know. Their vibes are unmatched! They are extremely detailed when it came to ensuring I would not need anything once I arrived. Everything was planned and executed to the T. I can't say thank you enough Amirah for hosting these trips. I am beyond grateful for the memories I made, the bonds we formed, the experiences I gained, and a lifetime worth of stories to tell. I cannot wait until the next one!!!!

Amirah truly treats you like a bestie and she provides only the best for her besties! The accommodations and meals were top tier ( I didn’t want to leave my room at the beautiful villa). Amirah goes out of her way to make the experience one of a lifetime. Her attention to detail is impeccable. For example, I briefly mentioned I wanted an açaí bowl and I forgot about it. However, on our last day together Amirah planned our day in way that ensured I got to experience a Balinese açaí bowl. The entire experience is full of small thoughtful moments that make you feel seen and appreciated. Anything you want to do, see, or eat; Amirah will make it happen!
