Balance Culture and Nature
Morocco offers the perfect mix of both:
- Culture: Fes Medina, Marrakech souks, Chefchaouen, and Casablanca’s Hassan II Mosque.
- Nature: Atlas Mountains, Ouzoud Waterfalls, and the Agafay Desert.
A balanced itinerary helps you experience Morocco’s diversity without feeling rushed.

Choose Authentic Accommodation
For a truly Moroccan experience, stay in riads — traditional guesthouses featuring beautiful courtyards and local architecture.
In the desert, spend a night in a luxury or traditional camp surrounded by silence and stars.

Food is a big part of the Moroccan experience. Don’t miss:

- Couscous on Fridays
- Pastilla (sweet and savory pie)
- Mint tea, the drink of hospitality

Pack Smart for Different Climates
Morocco has diverse weather conditions:
- Mountains: cool, especially at night.
- Desert: hot days, cold nights.
- Coastal cities: mild all year.
Bring layers, sunscreen, a hat, and comfortable shoes.
Respect Local Culture and Customs
Morocco is a welcoming country, but it’s important to be respectful:
- Dress modestly, especially in rural areas.
- Ask before taking photos of people.
- Learn a few Arabic or French phrases — locals appreciate it!
