Along the northern coast of Africa sits the amazing country of Morocco. It boasts incredibly diverse – and beautiful landscapes, and is home to a wonderfully diverse population. On the “Highlights of Morocco” tour, you’ll get to know the vibrant culture and colorful backdrops that distinctively define Morocco.
To start, you’ll visit Rick’s Café, the mythical saloon from the 1942 film “Casablanca” where you’ll enjoy a most memorable welcome dinner, setting the stage for an unforgettable journey. One of your first stops will be to take in the lush rolling hills studded with ancient olive groves that await you in the Ismalian capital of Meknes. You’ll explore Fes, one of the holiest cities in the Islamic world, including a walking tour in the Medina. The medina is an ancient market where donkeys and mules laden with goods still walk, and goods of all varieties are for sale, making for a delightful multi-sensory experience. Terrain-wise you will make your way through the famous Sahara Desert by jeep before boarding a camel for your ride to a Nomad camp. That’s cultural immersion at its finest! Another incredible highlight includes traveling the rugged “Road of a Thousand Kasbahs” to the UNESCO World Heritage site of Kasbah Ait Ben Haddou. This Kasbah (fortress) is the most famous in all of Morocco, and is so picturesque that it’s often depicted on many a postcard. Moving on to Marrakech, there will be a true taste of Moroccan hospitality when you partake in a lunch with a local family, and tea with a Berber family in their home. These culinary inclusions really help you to experience life as a local, and often provide everlasting memories.
