A Luxury Weekend Break In A Marrakesh Riad

by Peter R Stewart

A Luxury Weekend Break to Marrakesh has the real sound of romance and mystery to it, and it is easily possible to find and book a romantic getaway package to a new Riad in Marrakesh called the Riad Noir D’Ivoire.

The luxury weekend break will start at the airport where you will be met, and driven the fifteen minutes to the Medina, and then it is a ten minute walk, and the sights and sounds of Marrakesh will overwhelm you immediately.

Situated in the north east section of the Medina in Marrakesh this is a real escape from 21st century life, and a blessed cool relief after the pressures of tourist days in the Medina where you can be pursued for what seems like hours on end!

Beautifully decorated, and each with its own feel, there are six rooms of which two are suites, although the double rooms are pretty amazing themselves.

One of the features of all the rooms are how comfortable are the beds, so comfortable guests have been known to sleep through the early morning call to prayer, which in the Medina is very loud indeed.

If you can book it, get the Elephant Suite, which has a small balcony overlooking the courtyard, a huge fireplace, and a round beaten silver bath tub, and a monsoon shower. You will find mineral water and dried apricots and roasted almonds in your room or suite, with sunhats and a straw basket for goodies shopping in the Medina.

The Riad Noir D’Ivoire is centred around a courtyard with a small plunge pool, and palm trees with huge leaves at each corner, and one side is the bar, and the other the restaurant. At one end is a boutique and at the other end a comfortable lounge or more accurately a Salon with comfortable sofas, an extensive library, and in the winter a roaring log fire.

You eat breakfast on the roof terrace where there are a mass of potted plants and sun loungers.

The staff are brilliant with that well trained ability to appear just when needed and disappear completely at other times, but somehow reappearing just when you think you might want them again. This type of behaviour is so important when you are on a romantic weekend package, and you don’t want to be disturbed but equally you want service, and here the Riad Noir D’Ivoire is fantastic.

The food is just right, and lacked for nothing, they seemed to know intuitively exactly what you are going to need after an exhausting day sightseeing. The dishes are local with a European edge – just right.

A great help before you get lost in the medina is the owners give you a local mobile phone with her number and that of the riad programmed in, so that when you get lost in the labyrinth of alleyways, you can be rescued with directions. You will need this otherwise your luxury weekend break to Marrakesh could turn into the stuff of nightmares.

For a Luxury weekend romantic getaway package style break there is no doubt that the Riad Noir D’Ivoire in Marrakesh rings all the right bells

Best Places To Visit: Alaska

by Dave Text

Welcome to Alaska or as the Aleut people say, Welcome to “Alyeska”, the “great land”. Yes most definitely Alaska is a great land. It is one of the biggest states in the United States (almost big enough to one fifth to the rest of the US) and on the other hand one of the least populated areas in the US (definitely it’s a place to visit if you come from crowded NY or LA).

Its one of the two sates in the US which don’t share a border with any other state (second state being Hawaii). So what’s so special about Alaska, infact a good question to ask if you haven’t yet visited Alaska.

It is a place which can be called ‘special’ in this world. And why not where else do you find striking wildlife, wonderful mountains, glacier-carved valleys and steep, rocky coastline at one place. Yes it’s Alaska, the great land.

Whether you are a wildlife buff or an adventure lover or just trying to escape the high city life in the company of your loved one doing nothing, this state has lot much to offer to everyone. Just plan your holiday choose the travel mode to reach here (there are many ways which lead you to this place) and immerse yourself with the breathtaking beauty of nature.

Don’t rush with less number of days to this state, instead plan your holiday in such a way that you can experience and enrich with all the scenic places in here. There are many tour planners which can help you out with the Alaskan tour and can plan out things for you with proper convenience. Evidently in a matter of 12-15 days you would be able to see all the hotspots in this region.

Reaching here is another fun part, you can take a cruise (believe me it’s an experience you wouldn’t forget) which offers the opportunity to see the Inside Passage, Gulf of Alaska, tidewater glacier viewing and the port towns of Southeast region.

Another benefit would be if you combine it with the land tour. In this case land tour gives you the chance to visit Denali National Park, the Wrangell-St. Elias National park and other backwoods destinations. Together, they add up to the most complete experience. You can very well reach here by rail route.

In the past couple of decades this state has seen a boost in tourism which has resulted in the increased number of hotels and lodgings in this region. But don’t count on the number of hotels and be assured of getting the reservations on time.

This region sees millions of tourist visitors each year and sometimes it is really difficult to find hotels or lodgings. Instead make your reservations in advance using the hotels website or helpline if you are not going through any tour planner (in this case the tour planner reserves the hotels and lodges).

There are plenty of good hotels to suit different budgets in this region. Some of the recommended hotels are McKinley Village Lodge, Denali cabins, Motel Nord heaven, North face Lodge all in Denali National Park and Comfort Inn, Diamond center Hotel, Hotel Captain Cook all in Anchorage, Wedgwood resorts in Fairbanks etc.

In all you can find many hotels in here but you have to read the reviews carefully before choosing one. See to it that the hotel you have chosen is in your budget and gives you the reach to the scenic destinations. Hotels here provide a good service and many facilities. Make your reservations before you reach there.
