Rating: 4.7 (1 reviews)

Zagora is an ancient Moroccan frontier city, dating from at least the eleventh century, if not even further back. The Berbers called this area "Tazagort", the twin peaks, referencing Mount Zagora overlooking the city and the Almohad hillside fortress on the mountain. The Saadi dynasty's expedition to Timbuktu started here, and today you can see a sign that says "Timbuktu - 52 Days", as that is how long it takes to make the trip by camel. Within an hour of town, Saharan sand dunes and camel rides are the order of the day at Erg Chigaga. Zagora was a popular stop along this desert route known as the “Salt Trail.” Many a Moroccan Sultan made his wealth from these caravans, which transported dates, silver, gold, slaves, handcrafted works, and, of course, salt.

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.
Casablanca

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.
Fez

Fez

Fez is one of the best sights in the world. It is famous for its ancient walled city, often compared to the walled city of Jerusalem. The whole old city of Fez has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage site. The immense medina of Fes-l-Bali (the old city) is a huge labyrinth. Lose yourself in the hustle and bustle of the various markets, and find your way out once you have had enough of all the sights, sounds, and smells that will overwhelm your senses. Visit the Medina of Fez, Bab Bou, Al-Attarine Madrasa, Dar Batha Museum, Merenid Tombs and much more!
