Morocco

Morocco, a captivating North African country, is known for its diverse landscapes, warm hospitality, and stunning, photogenic towns. Nestled between the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea, Morocco mixes ancient traditions with the modern way of life. The souks – the bustling markets of Marrakech – offer glimpses of authentic local life. Here, you’ll find beautifully crafted ceramics and aromatic spices to take home, and you can practice your haggling skills for the best bargain.

You can experience the tranquil beauty of the Sahara Desert with its vast golden dunes and starlit skies on a camel trek or a 4x4 tour. The coastal city of Casablanca highlights Morocco's architectural prowess, with the majestic Hassan II Mosque, one of the largest mosques in the world, standing as a testament to Moroccan craftsmanship. Further north, the blue-rinsed houses and winding alleys of Chefchaouen are a mesmerizing sight – the whole city seems bathed in azure. If a beach holiday is more your style, head to the coastal town of Agadir. With its long stretches of golden sands and perfect waves, it's a haven for surfers and beach lovers alike.
