Morocco

Colour, culture and unforgettable cuisine

Sands, souks and sweet mint tea

From the bustling medinas of Marrakesh and Fez to the wild Atlantic beaches of Essaouira, the vast Sahara Desert to the snow-capped peaks of the Atlas Mountains – Morocco is vibrant, intense and endlessly fascinating.

Wander the blue-washed alleyways of Chefchaouen, hike North Africa’s highest peak, surf the ocean or get wonderfully lost in a tiny Berber village. Morocco’s cultural tapestry – a bold blend of Arab, European and African influences – is stitched into every colourful souk, handwoven rug and tiled courtyard.

And the food? Next level. Fragrant tagines, saffron-scented couscous, sweet mint tea and multi-course feasts served with a generous helping of spice and hospitality. (Pack an extra suitcase – trust us.)

Whether you’re here for the history, the adventure or the interiors of your dreams, Morocco will dazzle you at every turn.
