What to Love about Morocco
Well Placed Travel shares why Morocco should be on your travel list
A Cultural Mosaic
Morocco blends Middle Eastern and Muslim traditions with North African authenticity and hints of Southern European influence. From the call to prayer echoing five times a day to European-inspired architecture, every corner brings discovery.
exceptional Hospitality
Morocco’s hotels are works of art, blending centuries-old architecture with modern elegance. From lavish riads hidden in medinas to vineyard inns, serene desert camps and coastal retreats, each property offers its own sense of wonder. What makes the experience unforgettable is Morocco’s legendary hospitality, where every detail is infused with warmth, generosity, and a deep sense of welcome. You feel truly cared for.
imazighen/Berber Heritage
Learning about the native Berber culture added depth and authenticity to the journey. The Indigenous people of Morocco are the Amazigh (plural: Imazighen), which means “free people”, often known as Berbers. Spread across Morocco’s mountains, deserts, and villages, the Amazigh have a rich cultural heritage of language, music, art, and traditions that predate Arab influence and continue to thrive today.
Medina Magic
Behind massive, imposing walls lie secret gardens, mosaic-filled courtyards, and labyrinthine alleyways. Experience children playing, communal bakeries, local merchants, and serene quiet - all in a centuries-old design that keeps cool under the sun.
Exceptional Cuisine
Fresh, layered, and authentic.
Roadside markets, hand made bread baked daily, butcher shops, olives, wine, tender tagines, delicate couscous, and simple vegetable salads showcase Morocco’s rich agricultural heritage. The cuisine features rich spice blends without being spicy. And, there are exceptional chefs from Japan, Lebanon, Greece, France and Italy sharing the cuisine of their home countries.
Breathtaking Landscapes
Rolling hills, olive groves, vineyards, the dramatic Atlantic coast with the promise of southern beaches and the Atlas Mountains for a return visit
Adventure Everywhere
Desert camps, camel treks, 4x4s in the dunes, hot air balloon rides over the Atlas Mountains, ancient Roman ruins, and sprawling vineyards make every day unforgettable. Relax at exceptional hotel pools or reset at a hammam.
