3: Morocco - Best of North & South (18 days)

Thrill to this land of contrasts - sparkling coastlines, soaring mountains, lush valleys and the vast, unforgettable Sahara Desert. Travel in the footsteps of pirates, sultans and desert nomads, exploring the colonial architecture of Casablanca, the ancient Roman ruins of Volubilis, medieval Fes and the intricate clay architecture of Ait Benhaddou.

As well as enjoying the locals' warm hospitality, you'll embark on exotic adventures - a camel ride over Saharan dunes, a hike with mules in the High Atlas Mountains and haggling for treasures in bustling souqs. Take an exhilarating journey to absorb the extraordinary sights of this mysterious kingdom.
