Clear, carefully researched guides, realistic itineraries and practical planning tools for travellers discovering Morocco for the first time, from the medinas to the mountains and the Sahara.
Morocco is often described in a handful of images: a spice stall, a blue lane, a camel on a dune. The reality is richer: Amazigh mountain villages and Atlantic fishing ports, scholarly cities and modern capitals, and a culture of hospitality that shapes everyday life.
We publish practical, honest guidance to help you plan a trip that fits the country rather than racing through it, with realistic travel times, respectful advice and clear notes wherever details change.
How we research our guidesFive places that shape most first trips, each with an in-depth guide covering seasons, transport, itineraries and local customs.
A red-walled medina at the foot of the High Atlas, where palaces, souks and gardens meet.
The high dunes of Erg Chebbi, where a night in the desert can be the quietest of your life.
Morocco's spiritual and scholarly capital, where a vast medieval medina still works as a living city.
A blue-washed mountain town in the Rif, made for slow mornings and walks into the hills.
A fortified Atlantic port of whitewashed lanes, blue boats and steady sea winds.

In Erg Chebbi, evening arrives in stages. The sand turns from gold to copper, the wind drops, and the camps along the dunes light their lanterns one by one. Then comes the part visitors remember most: a silence so complete that the sky seems louder than the land.
Reaching it takes planning: long drives over the High Atlas, warm layers for a cold night, and a camp chosen with care.
