Exploring Samir's Hometown of Agadir

Alhamdulillah! The Heart’s Turn Tour, like the Heart itself, was a powerful experience that lives beyond words. All of the destinations, accommodations, sites, guides, unexpected side trips, insider access, curated spaces, practices, teachings, music, food…everything, was so masterfully taken care of that a real opportunity for deep spiritual exploration and transformation emerged. This experience was so far beyond a generic tour of cities, sites, and food. Traveling with guides, teachers, and musicians from Turkey and beyond that share a spiritual path is what really made this offering special. All of us made up an international community, a family, of loving seekers exploring, praying, singing, chanting, meditating, playing and whirling our way together through the sacred offerings of people and places throughout Turkey. It was magical and will no doubt prove itself to be a life-changing trip. Many thanks to all of the hearts and hands from across the globe that made this happen. Mashallah!!

As a graduate of the Master’s Program in Happiness Studies and currently pursuing my PhD in the same field. The 2025 Sufi Tour in Turkey has been the best decision I’ve made as a happiness student. I was able to experience the concepts of happiness in real life. I fully endorse and encourage this tour if you want to truly experience what “happiness” is all about.

This was my second time traveling to Morocco with The Lila Series, and my third time taking a trip with this group. I imagine that I will travel with them again, and I hope that speaks for itself! I cannot say enough good things about how deep and authentic of an experience The Lila Series offers to travelers. In Morocco, one of our fellow travelers who helps to set up and guide the trip is a young and very hip musician who grew up in one of the cities we visited. He knows many other musicians who practice different indigenous and folk music forms from different parts of Morocco and special places that would not make it onto a tourist's map. This helps to provide access into true, sacred places and some of the most healing, music one can imagine. And did I mention they are among the most famous and revered musicians in Morocco? The people & musicians we meet, and the Moroccans I have encountered in general, are very generous, warm and welcoming. The food is good and plentiful, and the country is beautiful. In addition to sacred music and ceremony, there is also time for excursions onto Morocco's stunning beaches and shopping in the souks. They will even give you some advice on how to bargain (aka haggle)! I also always feel very safe with this group everywhere I've been, plus, if you journey with The Lila Series, you'll meet a wonderful community of fellow travelers, and you're likely to make new friends for life. If you're a music lover, have been wanting to go to Morocco, or have been before and are looking for a deeper experience, then this is really an opportunity not to be missed. ENJOY!

Truly the most magical way one could hope to experience Morocco and its tradition of spiritual music. Omar, Amira and Samir invite you into something so special that you would be hard pressed to be able to experience by just going to Morocco on your own.
