MOROCCO
MOROCCO IS THREE COUNTRIES COMPRESSED INTO ONE
The medinas get the attention, and they earn it. Fez el-Bali is the largest car-free urban area in the world, a medieval city that has been continuously inhabited for over a thousand years and still functions more or less as it always has. Getting genuinely lost in it, past the point where the tourist infrastructure thins out and the tanneries and the metalworkers and the bread ovens take over, is one of those disorienting, irreplaceable travel experiences that no amount of research quite prepares you for.
But Morocco is also a mountain country. The High Atlas rises to over 13,000 feet and cuts across the middle of the country in a way that creates dramatically different worlds on either side. The Berber villages along the trekking routes above Marrakech carry a culture that is distinct from the Arab-influenced imperial cities and largely invisible to visitors who stay in the valley. The road south through the Draa Valley to the Saharan dunes at Merzouga passes through a landscape of kasbahs and palmeries that shifts every hour in a way that makes the journey as significant as the destination.
Then there's the Atlantic coast, which most Morocco itineraries treat as an afterthought. Essaouira is a wind-battered, blue-and-white fishing port that has been quietly attracting artists and musicians for decades without losing the working harbor at its center. The Souss-Massa coast further south is a serious birding destination that almost nobody outside the ornithology community knows about. We design Morocco itineraries that move through all of it with enough time in each place to let the country's layered character actually register rather than reducing it to a highlights reel.
