Morocco is a fabled destination for travellers, known for its colourful bazaars and varied landscape of snow-capped mountains, Mediterranean coastline, vast deserts and charming Atlantic towns. It is rapidly becoming one of the world's most popular destinations and with its palaces and monuments, its history and passions, is a country you will fall in love with.

Sitting at the top northwest corner of Africa and sharing two oceans, the Atlantic and the Mediterranean, Morocco's main appeal for visitors has always been its Mediterranean climate, making the country a perfect all-year destination. In contrast, in the Atlas Mountains, temperatures can drop below zero and mountain peaks are snow capped throughout most of the year, making them an excellent destination for skiers.

In Arabic, Morocco means Al Mamlakah al Maghribīyah, meaning “the Kingdom of the West.”  For Europeans, Morocco is often called the gateway to Africa, separated from Europe by just nine miles of Strait of Gibraltar Sea. Travelling to Morocco couldn't be easier - by air it is only 3-4 hours away from the UK. There are four gateway cities for air travellers - Agadir, Casablanca, Marrakech and Tangier.

Morocco is an exciting place with a wealth of attractions that are as wide-ranging as the landscape. Visitors are overwhelmed by true Moroccan hospitality. From luxurious five star resorts, to the most humble mountain village, Moroccans welcome you with a warmth and honesty fast disappearing from the modern world.

Whether you visit Morocco for the sunshine, or to trek through the mountains or the hot desert sands, it is a sure bet you will also be enchanted by the timeless Medieval medinas of the cities, particularly in Fez and Marrakech, where the souks and squares plunge visitors into a fascinating foreign world. Snake charmers weave their magic, the stench of the tanners' yards pervades the air and the call of the muezzins waft from the ancient minarets. The overall memory will be one of sweetened mint tea, brightly coloured slippered feet and big smiles.
