Luxury holidays in Morocco



Morocco, with a culinary, architectural and cultural tradition heavily influenced by an exotic Moorish history, is a magical country.

Throughout its long history there has been a succession of invading races, the advent of Islam and six successive Arab dynasties which have left an extraordinarily rich heritage: elaborate gateways lead through medieval city walls to the twisting alleyways of the souks, intricate minarets pierce the skyline, and fortified castles, or Kasbahs, stand as proud as ever.
 

From the easygoing coastal town of Essaouira, with its art galleries and tempting surf, to the fascinating city of Fes, where life still seems rooted in medieval time; from the rugged Atlas Mountains to the arid Sahara and its starkly contrasting oases, the beauty of Morocco and hospitality of its people will ignite a love affair to last a lifetime. 

MARRAKECH
Marrakech is a city of great beauty, with the snow-capped peaks of the Atlas Mountains rising behind it. At the heart of the Old Town, or Medina, is the Djemaa el Fna, a bustling marketplace that transforms at night into a carnival of acrobats, snake charmers, storytellers and aromatic food stalls. Friendly bargaining is encouraged in the souks for rugs, silverware, leatherwork and spices.
