Whichever city you choose - though we recommend all three, of course - you'll be charmed like a snake on Jemaa El Fna in no time. And to help you sift through the noise, here's our rundown of the best that Morocco has to offer. Marhaba! Morocco may be a short hop, skip and a jump across the Med from Europe but it feels like another world. Salesmen flaunting their wares in the souks, robed figures rushing to prayer and ancient palaces decked with dazzling tiles - it's easy to fall under its spell. Marrakech, on the cusp of both desert and mountain, offers old-world glamour and an enthralling sense of adventure. Casablanca, lapped by the Atlantic, is a thoroughly modern metropolis with a special affinity for art deco. And at the northernmost tip of the country is the eccentric cliffside city of Tangier, where many a writer and artist have pitched up and sought inspiration over the years.

Nestled in the heart of Morocco, Marrakech stands as a testament to the rich tapestry of culture and history woven throughout the ages. With its vibrant markets, ancient medina, and stunning architecture, Marrakech is a city that captures the imagination and leaves an indelible mark on all who visit. As you embark on your journey to Marrakech, prepare to be enchanted by the sights, sounds, and flavors that await you. From the bustling souks filled with spices and textiles to the tranquil gardens and majestic palaces, every corner of Marrakech tells a story waiting to be discovered. Join us as we embark on a journey through the winding streets of Marrakech, where ancient traditions blend seamlessly with modern life, and the past is always present. Let the magic of Marrakech capture your heart and inspire your soul.
