Travelling in Morocco

A Feast For The Senses…

This ancient and exotic land offers breath-taking mountain ranges, impressive waterfalls, wonderful beaches, cedar forests, the great Sahara Desert and a rich, complex history. 
Morocco has been inhabited since prehistoric times and the vibrant culture reflects its occupation by Phoenicians, Carthaginians, Romans, Arabs and, more recently, the French. 
You’ll visit Imperial Cities with storybook names – Casablanca and Marrakesh, Fez and Meknes – wander through ancient medinas, haggle for local handicrafts over a cup of mint tea at the local souks, and marvel at the kasbahs (old fortresses). 
Enjoy displays of traditional Berber dance, a ‘fantasia’ (men on horseback performing acrobatic feats), and take part in one of the many colourful festivities that celebrate the seasons throughout the year. Visit Morocco, where dreams become reality!
