Morocco

Morocco’s top tourist attractions range from grand Roman ruins to orange-toned mud-brick kasbah architecture, which makes it one of north Africa’s most interesting historic destinations.

While the souqs of Marrakesh and Fes, crammed to the brim with local artisan crafts, have made it one of the world’s best places to visit for shoppers, head out of the cities, and a Moroccan trip becomes an adventure into some of the region’s most dramatic scenery.

The craggy heights of the Atlas Mountains cut through the center of Morocco and are prime territory for trekking and other outdoor activities, while for those willing to make the long journey out east, sleeping amid the towering sand dunes of the Sahara remains one of the country’s top things to do.

Morocco is also a journey into a timeless, tranquil world of cute coastal villages, colorful-painted towns that cling to hillsides, and remote mountain outposts defended by fortress walls.
