In the surrounding areas of Marrakech and the centre of the country, the nature is absolutely spectacular. Sportsmen and adventurers have the opportunity to really enjoy roaming these beautiful landscapes by foot!

Walks in the centre of Morocco

If there is a place that sums up the incredible diversity and richness of the beautiful country of Morocco, it is certainly the countless markets called souks.  You will dive into the unforgettable atmosphere and you will find everything imaginable and more.

Morocco's incredible souks

Today, Morocco has a worldwide reputation for its numerous cultural and principally musical festivals. It's a great occasion to discover the artistic riches of the country during a trip to Morocco.

Morocco is world famous for its imperial cities. Every day, tourists from the four corners of the earth tour round the incredible palaces and gardens in these unique places. A breath taking visit in the heart of Morocco's history.

Morocco's superb imperial cities

It's without doubt the most touristy town in Morocco, thanks to its amazing souk and the immense Jema El Fna Square.

Salaam alaikoum! When we think of Morocco, it is the buzzing and colourful souks, filled with the scent of exotic spices that spring to mind. We conjure up images of magnificent palaces, lush gardens and white, sandy beaches that stretch far into the horizon. But there is more to Morocco; a depth that goes beyond its beauty and colour. There is its soul, a heart that beats not only in the bazaars but also across its lands, all there for you to discover as you immerse yourself in the daily lives of its people. By meeting these people and by enjoying their hospitality during your stay, you will see Morocco and its inhabitants unveil the hidden treasures that lie at the core of their culture. From its four royal cities to the misty ramparts of Essaouira, from hiking and trekking across the countryside (be it in the foothills of the Atlas Mountains or on a camel’s back in the Sahara), wonders await you, no matter what your choice of holiday may be.

Skoura is on the road to the most attractive kasbahs in the country, so I took the opportunity to visit and explore these ancient, rammed-earth fortresses. They overlook the valley and offer an incredible view! The best known, not far from Skoura, is the Kasbah Amerhidil which was built in the 17th century. Some of the scenes from the film Lawrence of Arabia were shot there and it's fun to go there.
The pretty, picturesque villages near El Kellaâ M'gouna by the Dadès River are well worth the trip. A chance to immerse yourself in Berber culture and meet all kinds of people.
From there onwards, you are in the Valley of the Roses. So I took the opportunity to buy some rose water, an ancient beauty secret, much used by Moroccan women. I used it to freshen up, it's a lovely feeling!
