| Description: | Morocco is a place like no other - from sweeping desert expanses to rugged mountain peaks, breathtaking beaches to urban intrigue. A magical and exotic kingdom, Morocco will enchant every one of your senses. It will leave you wishing you had more time to explore. Come, let Truly Morocco satisfy your curiosity. Meander lakes and waterfalls in the High Atlas mountains in summer or ski from one of Africa’s highest peaks in winter. Trekking, climbing, skiing, sledding, swimming, mountain biking, communing with nature and local villagers are all possible in these stunning mountains. Immerse yourself in ancient Berber culture, traditions, art and music in this remote and generally unexplored place. Rugged beauty, exhilarating slopes, lush valleys and cool canyons are easily accessible as a day trip from Marrakech or included in the overall discovery of Truly Morocco. The commercial and financial hub of Morocco and often the entry point, this city is best visited without a car as traffic congestion is a real concern. The Hassan II mosque is the only one in country where non-muslims are welcome and your time here would be incomplete without a visit. An art-deco architecture tour is another highlight of this French colonial urban center as are cocktails and dinner at Rick’s Cafe as depicted in the famous film, Casablanca. Possibilities abound in this tantalizing city of dizzying diversity where past and present co-exist among scholars, artisans, vagabonds and everything in between. Visit UNESCO’s Fez-el-Bali souk in the old medina, a labyrinthine maze where you will be transported back in time to medieval days where centuries of Moroccan heritage is on display, including the confounding working tannery. The famous blue gate of Bab Boujeloud ushers in a sense of history and architecture leading to the mosque with it’s green tiled minaret and the oldest known university in the world. A must-see on your Truly Morocco tour. |
