Holidays to Morocco

Home to gorgeous Atlantic and Mediterranean beaches, the epic Atlas Mountains and vibrant, colourful, aromatic souks, Morocco holidays are an absolute delight for all the senses.

Souk it up in Marrakesh

Get ready to barter at one of Medina’s souks, where an inimitable cacophony of colours, sights and scents await. Expect steely-eyed snake charmers, the promise of a magic carpet and the odd monkey appearing on your shoulder for a selfie. At night, Marrakesh’s Jemaa el-Fna square turns into a foodie’s paradise where you can feast on spicy street food, shish kebabs and snail soup.

Ain’t no mountain high enough

Running like a spine through Morocco, the Atlas Mountains are a sweeping stretch of natural beauty peppered with stupendous views and charming Berber villages that feel like they’re from a seemingly bygone era. Go hiking in the foothills, meet the locals and treat yourself to a hearty tagine followed by a soothing mint tea.

Beach Melba

With mile after mile of coastline, the lush waters of the Med to the north and the Atlantic to the west, and sunshine constantly on tap, Morocco does beach breaks like nobody else. Like a surf? Catch the best waves at Taghazout beach. Love your vitamin D? Flop and bake on Agadir Beach. With the family? The coastal town of Saïdia, dubbed the ‘Blue Pearl’, is an easy winner.

Rock the Kasbah

Hit the rewind button and travel back in time when grand fortresses were in their prime by exploring the earthy red kasbahs of Morocco. You’ll find a shed load of them in the south, along what is handily referred to as the Route (or Road) of a Thousand Kasbahs. Head to the Atlas mountains or the edge of the Sahara.

Banging dunes

Grab a shesh (a traditional Berber scarf) and go full-on Lawrence of Arabia (the iconic, super long classic flick was filmed here). Camp out Bedouin style in the Sahara Desert, ride a camel, go dune-bashing in a 4X4 and stargaze at the Milky Way. A dusty desert escape like this is the Morocco holiday of dreams.
