Morocco feels like a tailor - made destination for all types of travelers. Right from the Saharan dunes to the highest peaks of the Atlas, you wouldn't want to miss the opportunity. With landscapes and mountains leading towards the Oasis, while offering a simple, breathtaking pleasure of the night sky as it glistens in thin air and the rugged coastlines, waterfalls and caves in forested hills, and the mighty desert.
Morocco's cities are some of the most exciting on the continent. Join the centuries-old trail of nomads and traders to their ancient hearts, from the winding medina maze of Fez to the carnivalesque street-theatre of the Djemaa El Fna in Marrakesh. In the rocky deserts medinas are protected by kasbahs, on the coast by thick sea walls. But it's not just a heritage trip, as Morocco's cities are forward-facing too, with glitzy new urban design in Casablanca, Rabat and Tangier looking to the future as well as paying homage to their roots.

The Chaouwara tanneries are one of the city’s most iconic sights (and smells), offering a unique window into the pungent, natural process of producing world-class leather using methods that have changed little since medieval times. In 2015–16 they underwent a year-long restoration to spruce up the crumbling environs surrounding the pits, including the viewing terraces, but fear not – the tanneries' atmosphere remains intact.
Do not miss the Blue Gate, while exploring Fez. The towering main entry to the old medina is quite a sight, with its mosaic tiles, blue on the side you walk through (hence its name) yet green on the reverse, the color of Islam.
Similar, yet different, shops and sights abound and it's easy to spend hours walking through new avenues, keeping close watch on the turns you take, so you can get back to the gate later to make your return journey.
Enjoy lunch at Café Clock, or similar. There are several eateries just inside the gate, offering high up perches for an overview of the medina (height and distance are welcome when you feel overwhelmed by the bustle of the old city).
