MARRAKESH

The top attraction of Marrakech isJemaa el Fna, the main square of the city: pulsating with life at all hours, it is animated by merchants, musicians, street artists, jugglers, snake charmers, cute and mischievous monkeys. Lively during the day, evocative at night. It is the perfect place to taste Moroccan street food and to attend outdoor shows that will catapult you into a Morocco of the past. Marrakech is a city surprisingly full of things to do including museums, palaces and gardens. Not to forget, shopping in the souk is one of the unmissable activities during ourtravel to Morocco.

FES

In the valley nestled between the Maghreb hills, 350 meters above sea level, lies the imperial city ofFez, a true stronghold of the country's culture and identity. Entering Fes (or Fez) you will feel like you have taken a dive into the past and you will breathe a medieval air: your senses will get lost among wonderful landscapes, particular sounds, rich scents and many colours. Fes is divided into the New City or Fès el-Jedid, that is, the imperial city built starting from 1200, where the station, the Royal Palace and the Jewish quarter are located, and the Old City, or Medina, called Fès el-Bali, the oldest walled part of Fes, a true labyrinth of streets, over 9 thousand, with markets of every type, from carpets to brass objects, from ceramics to fabrics and leather with the famous tanneries, and where goods are still transported on the back of a donkey.

ESSAOUIRA

Essaouira, originally called Mogador, meaning small fortress, has always been an important port that connects Morocco with the rest of Africa and Europe. This mid-18th century fortified port city is simply stunning and a must-see on your holiday in Morocco. The coasts of Essaouira are swept almost all year round by ocean breezes and many surfers and windsurfers reach it to twirl on the surface of the water off the coast. We recommend tourists to visit the fish market and observe the work of fishermen and traders. The shops sell beautiful local handicrafts such as thuja wood products, embroidered clothes and carpets. Essaouira is the ideal destination for a stay full of history, art and adventure offered in ourtravel to Morocco

GREAT SOUTH

And here is His Majesty theGreat South and its Desert, one of ours tours in Morocco most popular. Near Merzouga, you can admire the beautiful dunes ofErg Chebbi, while to the south the dunes ofErg Chigaga. On the back of the dromedary you can admire the sunset between the dunes, and then move on to walk between the dunes barefoot to feel all the power of the desert. We will then continue towards the most important stages of the South such asAit Ben Haddou born as a fortified city or Ksar. The other important destinations are theDraa valleys with its palm oases, theDades Gorges and theTodra gorges with red earth mountains, dizzying gorges, Berber villages, the majestic ksours and kasbahs. These valleys of the High Atlas mountains offer wonderful and particular landscapes.

RABAT

Rabat, the capital of Morocco, is a modern city along the western coast of the country overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. In addition to being the seat of the Moroccan Government, Rabat is the main center of the nation's traditional cuisine and architecture, a true jewel where the colonial buildings, the avenues adorned with palm trees and the cosmopolitan atmosphere make the city an unmissable destination during the trip to Morocco. Phoenician, Roman, Almohad and Berber Marinid dynasty monuments tell the long history of Rabat. Surprising are the Wall of the Andalusians which protects the southern area of the Medina, built in 1600 in clay, and the old city, more schematic than the other Medinas, where the rue Souika, which leads to the Great Mosque and the shoe souq of Es Sebat

CASABLANCA

Also known as Casa or Dar El Baida, the city ofCasablanca, thanks to its artificial port, is the economic capital of Morocco where most of the country's foreign trade is managed. Located along the west coast, the city resembles a center of southern Europe: cosmopolitan, modern and frenetic, in its shops you will find luxury brands. From the big oneHassan II Mosque, also open to non-Muslim visitors, Art Deco and neo-Moorish architecture, Casablanca has more to offer than you might expect. This energetic and modern city, with a huge port and a myriad of commercial activities, such as the Casablanca Twin Center, has its beating heart in Mohammed V Square overlooked by beautiful buildings dating back to 1930. Casablanca is a modern city and a little outside the box compared to other places in Morocco but still manages to combine urban life with traditions.
