Marrakech: Where Tradition Meets Modernity

Jemaa el-Fnaa: A Vibrant Square

The heart of Marrakech beats at Jemaa el-Fnaa square. By day, it’s a bustling market with food stalls, vendors selling everything from spices to carpets, and snake charmers. By night, it transforms into a lively entertainment hub, with storytellers, musicians, and street performers creating a magical atmosphere.

Koutoubia Mosque: An Iconic Landmark

You can’t miss the majestic Koutoubia Mosque, an iconic symbol of Marrakech. Its towering minaret stands as a testament to the city’s rich history and Islamic heritage. It’s a breathtaking sight, especially at sunset when the call to prayer echoes through the city.

Zagora Desert: A Desert Escape

Zagora, located in southeastern Morocco, is the gateway to the Sahara Desert and offers a unique desert experience different from Merzouga.

Draa Valley: A Green Oasis

Zagora is your entry point to the Draa Valley, a lush oasis surrounded by date palm groves and mountains. The greenery of this valley contrasts beautifully with the arid desert landscapes. Take a leisurely stroll through the palm groves and enjoy the tranquility.

Desert Camps: Underneath the Stars

While in Zagora, don’t miss the chance to spend a night in a desert camp. These camps provide a comfortable yet authentic desert experience. Enjoy traditional Berber cuisine, music, and the warmth of a campfire, all under a spectacular canopy of stars.

Tamegroute: Pottery Village

A visit to Tamegroute, a nearby village, reveals the craftsmanship of Berber potters. Explore the centuries-old underground kasbah library and witness the intricate pottery-making process. It’s a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the region.
