Morocco

Morocco Morocco is located in the very north of Africa, located on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean, over which the Atlas Mountains stretch, which reach the Sahara Desert. This beautiful Kingdom has a rich history and tradition, dating back thousands of years, from the settlement of the Berbers, whose customs and culture permeated through the centuries together with the influence of European colonists. On this trip to Morocco, we will have the opportunity to try a variety of Moroccan food, drink tea with Berbers, go on a trip to the capital Rabat and Casablanca, swim in the cool waters of the Ouzoud waterfall and take pictures with monkeys. Rich stalls in Marrakech will give us the opportunity to buy various souvenirs: sweets, teas, jewelry, leather handbags, scarves and to walk through the main square of Djema el Fna. Excursions to the desert of Agafay, Essaouira and Ourika will complete your trip to Morocco and leave a special impression on you. Our adventure begins in the heart of Morocco - Marrakech, a city pulsating with energy and colors. This city of three Berber and three Arab dynasties will delight you with its magical markets where the smells of exotic spices, the colors of traditional fabrics and the sounds of local music meet. We will visit the famous Katubia Mosque, the symbol of the city, and explore Djema el Fna, the largest square in North Africa, which is a real treasure of local culture and tradition. In the crowded bazaars, everyone will find and buy souvenirs for themselves: Moroccan tea, spices, sweets, scarves, bags, handicrafts, jewelry and art. Chatty sellers, taking photos with exotic animals and snake charmers are a daily sight and an important part of everyday life. Prices in Morocco greatly depend on your haggling skills and negotiating with skilled street vendors, making traveling to Morocco even more interesting. While staying in Marrakech, we will optionally visit the Ouzoud waterfalls, which are among the highest in all of Africa, as well as the mystical city of Essaouira, located on the Atlantic coast, which enchants visitors with its charm and authenticity. Of course, we will not miss a tour of the capital Rabat, today's capital, where we will visit the Royal Palace and the impressive Mausoleum of Mohammed V. Then we will head to Casablanca, also known as the "White City", where the French will dominate architecture and modern urban oases. The old capital Fes will enchant you with its ancient medinas and the longest pedestrian zone in the world, which is the center of Islamic spirituality and science. The sand from the shoes you wore will quickly disappear, but the taste and experience of Morocco is a lasting memory and stimulation for all the senses, something you will remember for a long time.
