RIAD KNIZA, MARRAKECH
THE EXPANSIVE VIEWS OF THE ATLAS MOUNTAINS
Opened in 2004, and renovated throughout to the highest standards using local craftsmen, the Riad Kniza has just 11 tastefully furnished, well-equipped, airconditioned deluxe rooms and suites, the majority with an open fireplace.
Traditional, home-cooked Moroccan food, served either on the roof terrace which has expansive views of the Atlas Mountains and the Medina or in the two comfortable lounges on the ground floor, is the speciality of the house. Recently a swimming pool and a spa with sauna, massage room and hammam have been added. The level of service is equal to that expected of a 5-star hotel but here, in this family home, it is even more special as it is so personal.

“EXPERTLY TAILORED, EFFORTLESSLY ENJOYABLE”
We travelled to Indochina in January/February with an itinerary designed by The Ultimate Travel Company – and it was spot on. Rob, our consultant, really understood what we were looking for and created a journey that suited us perfectly. The choice of hotels was excellent, and the pace was just right, with enough time built in to relax and recharge between the different experiences. The service throughout was professional, personal and thoughtful – exactly what you want from a travel specialist.
“PROFESSIONAL, PERSONAL – AND A REAL PLEASURE”
From the moment we got in touch, everything felt smooth and well looked after. The team were not only professional and thorough – providing tailored suggestions with clear costings – but also genuinely friendly. Even after we returned, a follow-up email (and a bottle of wine!) showed just how thoughtful Ultimate Travel really is. Nothing was too much trouble. We already have more trips booked and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.
“FAULTLESS AND FUN”
We’ve just returned from a Danube cruise with Douglas Skeggs and Joanna Worsley, with a few days in Vienna beforehand – all brilliantly overseen by Emily. From meet and greet at the airport to every detail on board the Amadeus Cara, the organisation was seamless. We’re already looking forward to our next Escorted Tour with The Ultimate Travel Company.
