What's this trip about?

    Our Moroccan cooking school is located just outside the ancient imperial city of Marrakech, a walled garden city of tall graceful palms set beneath the snow-capped Atlas Mountain range. About ten minutes from the medina, you will find the Palmeraie, a grove of over 150,000 towering palm trees. It is here you will find the luxury villa, aptly named the ‘house of green mint.’ The combination of luxurious hospitality, fine food and wine, and an enthusiastic staff are necessary ingredients for, “one of the best vacations we have ever had,” as many of our recent guests tell us.

View Profile

Metropolitan Touring's 60+ years are characterized by that difference. Creators, promoters, sellers, organisers, coordinators, hosts, pioneers, yes. But above all, friends to all those who have come into contact with the company – and every contact, every bond, a story

In many ways, our company's origins as the pioneers of travel and tours to Galapagos Islands have set our course over the last decades. Their fragility, their specialness, their uniqueness have formed our belief in Galapagos cruises and travel experience that is founded on respectful contact with the natural world, in interpretation, understanding and sharing – and in fun!

Today, we own and operate a trio of vessels (the Santa Cruz and yachts Isabela II and La Pinta) as well as the Finch Bay Eco Hotel on Santa Cruz Island – and all our staff is as committed as they were when we were founded to creating unforgettable experiences for our guests.
