DESCRIPTION

Indigo Gazelle Tours is excited to offer this exclusive, private Golf & Culture small group tour to Morocco that will reveal championship golf course gems relatively unknown to American golfers and also explore the cultures, colors, cuisine, and hospitality for which this North African country is renowned. Indigo Gazelle’s Owner, Morocco specialist, and golf enthusiast, Alex Safos, will lead this intimate, adventurous, and unique tour. Gather your small group of family or friends, and experience the romance of travel once again on a private journey tailor-made for it.

This multi-layered itinerary will literally and metaphorically cover much ground and traverse: the cosmopolitan and sophisticated capital of Rabat, home to Robert Trent Jones’ acclaimed Royal Dar Es Salaam (Red) course which hosts the Hassan II Trophy tournament for PGA Tour Champions and has also been a stop on the European tour; the picturesque mountain village of Ifrane—Morocco’s “Little Switzerland”—nestled in the Middle Atlas Mountains and home to the spectacular Michlifen golf course designed by Jack Nicklaus; the spiritual capital and “soul of Morocco,” Fes, with its fantastic 8th century medina (old city) —a UNESCO World Heritage Site brimming with architectural marvels and incredible markets (souqs)—and nearby, historic Royal Golf Fes course designed by Cabell Robinson; the iconic, much-Instagrammed “Blue Pearl” village of Chefchaouen, snug in the wild Rif Mountains and rich in Jewish and Muslim heritage; the storied city of Tangier with its beatnik and libertine past, now remade into a modern, major port and Mediterranean luxury destination astride the Strait of Gibraltar…and the nearby seaside links course of Al Houara designed by Vijay Singh and Graham Marsh; and a final night in Casablanca, home to the magnificent Hassan II Mosque and replica of “Rick’s Cafe” preserved in an eponymous, fine-dining restaurant where the 1942 Bogart and Bergman film is memorialized.
