Morocco has so much to offer for adventure from white mountain peaks, colourful cities and dramatic Atlantic coastline. There’s many adventures on offer where theres opportunities to bargain hunt in bustling bazaars and journey deep into the Atlas mountains to spend time with the Berber people, helping out with a community project. You can cook traditional Moroccan tagines in bustling Marrakech, visit the sleepy laid back coastal town of Essaouira and trek along the wild Atlantic coast. Its a superb introduction to Arab North Africa and offers an experience that, although only a few hours by plane, is a million miles away from home .
