There’s just something about Marrakesh, Morocco that soothes the soul. At Royal Mansour, travelers can book this immunity-supportive agenda on an individual basis (from $12,785 for five days). As you follow your bliss, you’ll be showered with programming running the gamut from private sport lessons and Tibetan singing bowl therapies to oxygen facials and massages. Consultations with a nutritionist and wellness advisor, as well as a body composition and scalp analysis, are also part of the retreat, as are personalized menus. When you’re not fl ooding your cells with delectable fare from acclaimed chefs, enjoy the 27,000-square-foot spa, art therapy class in a glass-paneled greenhouse, or a chaise lounge by the pool. www.travelandleisure.com/trip-ideas/yogawellness/wellness-retreats-around-theworld Image credit: Isaac Ichou/Courtesy of Royal Mansour

when other water sources on the reserve dry up. The magic ingredient is not just the quality and quantity of the game viewing or the elegance of the accommodation, but the Varty family and their enlightened approach to the healing power of nature and an unwavering legacy of doing good – the charge led these days by fourthgeneration siblings Bron and Boyd. Suspend any preconceived notions of a typical safari to become hooked on the power of silent, meditative game drives or waking early to squeeze in a yoga class outdoors while elephants splash in the river below. Service appears impromptu, laid-back even, but don’t be fooled. It’s orchestrated with military precision behind the scenes to ensure every minute counts without making anyone feel rushed. A crack squad of guides will have the crankiest guest leaping enthusiastically off the four-wheeldrive to crouch in the dirt with their Shangaan tracker and discuss the freshness of paw prints. Offerings at the Healing House wellness centre include wilderness walking and ancient forms of sound therapy. While courses to chart your life’s true purpose based on animal tracking and the annual self-transformation adventure retreat with guru Martha Beck add to Londolozi’s reputation for putting the soul into safari.
