With its rich culture and centuries-old architecture, this North African country is sure to delight even the most discerning traveler.

Here are some of the top activities that you can look forward to in Morocco:

GET HAPPILY LOST IN MARRAKESH

Marrakesh, the “Red City”, is one of the most alluring destinations in Morocco. A former imperial city, it is now a popular tourist destination.

Here you can spend a few days strolling through its bustling souks, visiting the Jardin Majorelle, or exploring some of its wonderful sites, like the Bahia Palace and Ben Youssef Madrassa.

ESCAPE IT ALL IN A MOROCCAN DESERT TOUR

Imagine sleeping under the starry night of the Moroccan desert and waking up to the views of the exotic landscape stretching out before you. Imagine feeling the warm sun on your face and hearing nothing but the sound of silence.

This is what awaits you when you go luxury camping in the Southern Moroccan Desert. Don’t miss this once-in-a-lifetime experience with experienced guides and exclusive campsites.

Whether you’re seeking adventure or simply want to escape for a while, this is an unforgettable way to enjoy the beauty and mystery of the Moroccan Desert.

EXPLORE BEAUTIFUL RABAT

The Bouregreg River flows into the Atlantic Ocean at the location of Morocco’s bustling capital, Rabat. It’s home to some of Morocco’s most important monuments, including the Hassan Tower, Royal Palace, and Kasbah de Quidas.

You can easily spend your days exploring the countless landmarks that beautifully reflect the city’s Islamic and French-colonial heritage.

SHOP AROUND THE MEDINA IN FES

Traveling to Fes feels like going back in time. In the Medina of Fes, it’s almost like time stopped centuries ago.

With its winding alleyways and centuries-old mosques, Fes is a living museum where you can experience real, down-to-earth Moroccan life firsthand.

Suppose you’re looking to do some shopping for authentic Moroccan souvenirs. In that case, you’ll find an abundance of artisanal shops selling traditional copperware, leather items, the iconic blue and white Fassi ceramics, and much more in Medina.

DISCOVER CASABLANCA

Casablanca is a city that needs no introduction. This gorgeous port city is renowned for its unique blend of cultures. All throughout the city, you’ll see a unique and colorful mix of French and Moresque architecture styles.

Whether you explore inside the incredible Hassan II Mosque, stroll along the seaside Corniche Road, or shop in the Souq Haboos, you’ll love everything about this wonderful city.

EXPERIENCE MOROCCAN HOSPITALITY IN A RIAD

A Riad is a traditional Moroccan estate with all living quarters constructed around a central courtyard. Many investors have converted many large, sumptuous buildings into luxury boutique hotels.

Usually nestled within the ancient walls of the city’s Medina, these exquisitely appointed residences offer guests a true taste of Moroccan culture and hospitality.

From tastefully decorated suites and delicious dinners in the lush courtyard to luxurious amenities and personal service, a stay in a Riad is an unforgettable experience.

RELAX AT A TRADITIONAL MOROCCAN SPA

The Hammam, the traditional spa bath, has always played an important role in Moroccan culture. Thus, for many people, a trip to Morocco is not complete without a visit to a traditional Moroccan spa. Here you can relax and indulge your senses with a traditional soak or scrub, among other treatments.

Best Time to Visit Morocco

Morocco is a year-round destination, with each season offering different vibes. But the best time to visit is in the fall (September – November) and spring (March – April).

This is when temperatures are moderate (usually around 77°F), and the major cities are less crowded.
