Why Morocco
What makes Morocco so cool? Perhaps it’s the way it warmly welcomes visitors into a magical land full of curious sights, sounds and architecture. Or it’s unique position sitting at the crossroads where Africa meets Europe, blended with a Middle Eastern cultural vibe. Morocco is so much more than incredibly unique shopping experiences in magical souks, it is deserts beckoning the adventurist, snow capped mountains to be trekked. Medieval medinas obsessed with being explored and soft sands against lapping shores inviting travelers to relax. Go ahead, walk through one of the fabulous, ubiquitous doors to your own personalized Morocco experience.
