Splendors of Morocco

The Kingdom of Morocco has long held a romantic allure for the westerner. Since the 18th century some of Europe's greatest writers and painters have sought inspiration here. Known to the Arabs as "al-Maghreb al-Aqsa" meaning the "farthest land of the setting sun," Morocco boasts stunning natural beauty and an extraordinarily rich and varied cultural heritage.

In this magical land of legend and color, the souqs and thousand-year-old labyrinthine medinas of fabled Marrakesh and Fez await your discovery. Cross the high passes of the Atlas Mountains, discover the magnificent scenery and crumbling Kasbahs of the pre-Sahara. Throughout your journey experience the warm hospitality of Moroccans at the small luxury character hotels featured in this program.
