It is easy to find cheap holidays and cheap holiday deals to Morocco. By taking a few moments here, you can learn a great deal about this ancient country, its history and its people.
Morocco is separated into thirty two different provinces, and includes a portion of the Sahara Desert. No matter which region you decide to visit, there is something for everyone to experience the diversity of this incredible nation.
While staying in Morocco, you can choose from a number of different regions to stay in. Essaouira is a favorite region for many to holiday at. It has a lot to offer those who love to wander the beaches. There, visitors can enjoy the splendid surroundings and incredible service at some of the local hotels such as the Ryad Lyon-Mogador or the Riad Malaika. Ouarzazate is another area that is popular as is Fes.
If you are looking for adventure, Morocco has plenty for you to experience. Essaouira offers several options that can make your visit to Morocco a memorable one. How about starting your day with a drive over the dunes in a landrover? Make a stop at a Berber farmhouse and experience the food and culture of the people there. Take a flight in a hot air balloon. Sway through the dunes on the back of a camel. Or a simple horse back ride along the beach.
In Fes, visitors can soak up the culture and hidden history with a tour of the Fez Mullah cemetery, and the synagogue, evidence of the former presence of the Jews in this area. Visitors can also explore the Bou Inania Medersa which was a school back in the fourteenth century. Amazingly, this building is still in use as a religious and educational centre, and offers tours to allow visitors to see for themselves the timeless beauty of hand made walls, tiles, plasterwork and arches. Another nearby Koranic school is the Sahrij Medersa.
Morocco is a shopper's paradise. The variety of things for sale at the souk (market) is hard to describe, no matter which city or town you may visit. While shopping for clothing, you may find yourself being entertained by dancers and musicians in the market square. Acrobats or storytellers may command your attention while you haggle for the best prices on jewellery or leather. At night, you will find all sorts of open air restaurants in the square.
Moroccan cuisine is a mish-mash of more than eight different cultural styles. It has been influenced by the Middle East, Africa, the Mediterranean cultures, the Moorish, Portuguese, Spanish and Berbers too. It is rich in spicing, favoring saffron and mint and fruits like oranges and lemons. A typical Moroccan meal includes couscous.
Morocco is a diverse country in terms of geography. Some parts are desert, some are mountainous. Only a small portion of the landscape is arable land, and an equal portion is forest. These lush forests, fed by the Mediterranean patterns of weather, are bio-diverse, especially in the number of birds that call Morocco home. Where ever you go, you will be mesmerized by the colors, scents and sounds of this beautiful country.
