Morocco is an enticing blend of quiet traditional life and frenetic tourist haunts; place where atmospheric souks and sublime scenery converge to create enthralling travel experiences. Here are our favourite destinations in Morocco.
Morocco holds an enduring fascination that few other regions can compete with. While only a few hours from Europe, it remains firmly rooted in its medieval past.
Bustling night markets and colourful souks give the cities an unmistakable energy. Sleepy mountain villages nestled into burnt landscapes of rocky canyons, hum to the ebb and flow of daily life. Alongside rivers fringed by swathes of fertile green, crumbling kasbahs betray an ancient powerful Morocco, strategically located along once-prosperous caravan routes.
Despite the many popular tourist-driven things to do in Morocco, the country still holds a few surprises. Hiking in remote villages in the Atlas Mountains; exploring rose-filled valleys; day trips to hidden desert oases.
There are few places in the world that capture the exotic more poignantly than on a road trip through Morocco. It’s a culturally diverse region with a host of wonderful things to do. Here are some of our favourites.
