Trip Summary

Casablanca
Casablanca is the largest city in Morocco and the country's commercial and social epicenter. The Romans founded a settlement called 'Anfa,' and within a short time it quickly became one of the most noteworthy ports in North Africa. The French influence on Casablanca is undeniable and is on display in the tree-lined avenues south of the Old Medina. The Old Medina and La Corniche, two compact areas full of adventure and surprises, are popular tourist attractions.
Visit Hassan II Mosque, Place des Nations Unies, Arab League Park, La Corniche, Plage Ain Diab, Morocco Mall, Bouskoura Forest, Mohammedia, Rick's Café, The Old Medina, and so much more. -
Essaouira
Essaouira, formerly known by the name Mogador, is a city situated on Morocco's Atlantic coast. The Old Town of Essaouira is situated on a clifftop protected along the coast by ramparts called the Skala de la Kasbah; here you will find Essaouira`s Medina and the Mellah (Jewish Quarter). Essaouira thrived in the 18th and 19th centuries, when it became Morocco's first world-class seaport. The sea is still important to the city's economy today as a tourist destination. Southeast of the Medina, there are two beaches, Plage d`Essaouira and Plage de Tagharte, which are popular with all types of visitors, from sunbathers to professional surfers. Essaouira and the nearby village of Diabat are very well-known for their shared 'hippie culture,' popularized as a result of Jimi Hendrix's 1969 visit to the area.
Visit and explore the Essaouira Medina, Skala de la Kasbah, Mellah, Plage d'Essaouira, Plage de Tagharte, Diabat, Quartier des Dunes, and so much more. -
Skoura
Skoura is a fertile oasis lined with immense palm groves that provide great views of the Atlas Mountains alongside deserted landscapes. It is renowned for the cultivation of roses. The palm groves were laid out in the 12th century by the Almohad sultan Yacoub el-Mansour and named after its original inhabitants, the Berbers of the Haskourene tribe. The most beautiful kasbahs in southern Morocco can be found here. Many of them are still partially inhabited. Pathways tunnel through the vegetation from one kasbah to another within this fertile island - a true oasis, perhaps the most intensely verdant in Morocco.
Visit and discover the Kasbah Amridil, Palmeraie de Skoura, Musee Memoire de Ouarzazate and much more. -
Marrakech
Marrakech has a long and storied history tied to the tragedies and triumphs of the sultans and kings of Morocco. Along with Fez, Meknes and Rabat, Marrakech was one of the four 'imperial capitals of Morocco.' The heart of the fortified Old City is an area called The Medina, filled with historical buildings and great shopping opportunities at the myriad souqs. The Medina, along with Menara Gardens and Agdal Gardens, have all been named UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The thriving center of town is the Jemaa el-Fna, which explodes with activity and color after nightfall. Marrakech is also a jumping-off point for tourists to explore the beautiful Atlas Mountains.
Explore and enjoy The Medina, Agdal Gardens, Menara Gardens, Koutoubia Mosque, La Palmeraie, Gueliz, Jemaa el-Fna, Jardin Majorelle, Palais de la Bahia, and so much more.
