About this experience
Dihya events, it's not a trip, it's a revelation.
While other tours show you fez from the outside, Dihya opens doors to her deepest female soul. It is not conventional tourism: it is an intimate encounter with the dance, spirituality and ancestral rituals that women have guarded for generations.
For five days, you will live a carefully designed experience for a very small group of women. You will immerse yourself in Shikhat, Gnaoua, Taarida, and Hadra dance workshops, ancient wellness practices, beauty rituals with henna and herbalism, sessions of bodily and spiritual connection, and guided tours of the most magical corners.
Dihya is exclusive by nature. Each activity is a bridge to the feminine wisdom of the Maghreb, facilitated by local teachers and accompanied by an atmosphere of care, beauty and authenticity.
It is an experience for women who seek to reconnect with their body, their energy and their sacred essence.
