Bloom into your own power
Some experiences are made to last a lifetime. This is one of them. It will leave you with breathtaking moments and heart-filled memories that you will still talk about many years later. There are some places that make your eyes glow and your heart shine. Some places that make you remember what it feels to be alive.
The Sahara holds space for all the spaces. Her vastness is reflected by the eternal sand dunes you see during the day and the infinite stars sky you discover during the night. When surrounded by such abundance, you cannot feel any different than abundant inside out.
We invite you to a journey that will help you reconnect with yourself while being supported by a circle of like-minded women. This is a journey for body, mind and senses. A journey to empower and elevate each other on all levels of being. Join us to explore the power of a female circle while discovering the hidden, colorful magic of Marrakech and the Sahara desert.
We promise this is a journey that you will never forget. For it is here to remind you. And to remember.

Testimonials
I am grateful to Alexia and Nicola and ALKEMY Travel for pulling off this amazing retreat. It was the perfect mix of adventure and journey within. The retreat was fun yet insightful, I got to see a lot of Morocco and also looked deeper into myself. Thank you for the vinyasa and yin yoga practices, meditation and Psychedelic Breathwork, and the wonderful team in Morocco who took an amazing care of us and shared with us the magic of their culture.

Sahara Soul Adventure 2022FAQ
Please fly in and out of Marrakech International Airport. Make sure you arrive by 3pm on Day 1 so you have enough time to get to our first Hotel comfortably.
Please plan your departure flight after breakfast or later on Day 8.
Well, first of all, it is the desert. It can get very hot, dry and sandy.
Usually we have day temperatures between 25-38 degrees and that can vary depending on the current climate situation. Heat waves as well as sudden drops of temperature are always possible, yet we have a great time and camp that will accommodate you well.
Nights get cooler and you may even be able to sleep outside under the stars.
Yes, we are sending out a packing list with the confirmation of your space on the Retreat.
Yes, some cash is always recommended as there are no cash machines in the desert. While this is an all-inclusive trip, you might want to buy souvenirs and gifts in the market and also give tips to our Berber team. Best you exchange cash right at the airport so you do not need to worry later as we are on a tightly timed adventure trip.
