While wandering through the narrow streets of the city, you can see the influences of its rich cultural heritage, including Islamic, French, and Berber elements. Among the places we will visit are the heart of the city, Mohammed V Square, the United Nations Square, which beautifully blends Morocco’s past and present, the famous Hassan II Mosque with the world’s second tallest minaret, the Old Medina, the Hobus neighborhood famous for its open-air markets, and Ain Diab and the Corniche located along the Atlantic Ocean coast.

Upon arrival, we will have a panoramic city tour where we will see the Hassan Tower and the Mohammed V Mausoleum, built in memory of the grandfather of the current king, a pioneer of Morocco’s independence, as well as the Royal Palace. After the tour, we head to Marrakech. Upon arrival in Marrakech, we begin to explore the city which will take you back to centuries ago with its narrow streets. Marrakech derives its name from the word “mur akush” in the language of the Berbers, the oldest indigenous people of North Africa, meaning “Land of God.” Known for its famous red walls, Marrakech is also called the “Red City.” During our city tour, we will visit Bahia Palace, which provides a wonderful impression of what it means to be a noble in Morocco during the 19th century, the Koutoubia Minaret, the Majorelle Gardens, which host a collection of plants from around the world, and the heart of the city known as Djemaa El Fna Square.

• After breakfast at the hotel, we join the UNESCO World Heritage Magnificent Essaouira Tour. Essaouira, which has hosted civilizations since prehistoric times, is located on the Atlantic Ocean and is known for its old city wall painted in white, narrow streets, and traditional markets. This city center is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site and is known as a fishing port, as well as a calm coastal town where art and culture are intertwined. The city offers a relaxing getaway for its visitors, and a relatively tranquil atmosphere compared to Marrakech has attracted many world-famous artists like Cat Stevens, Jimi Hendrix, and Orson Welles over the years, making it a center for art and culture. The town has also hosted the filming of the famous Game of Thrones series. In our tour, we will visit the Essaouira ramparts, Essaouira Fortress, Essaouira Port, which has a fish market, and the famous Medina. While exploring Essaouira, you will also find opportunities to shop happily, combining the elegance of traditional Moroccan architecture with traces of modern life. After the tour, we return to our hotel in Marrakech. Dinner and overnight stay at the hotel.

The highest peak of the chain of mountains that separates the Mediterranean coasts of Northwest Africa from the Sahara Desert is Toubkal, near Marrakech. These mountains also host a wide variety of plants and animals that are at risk of extinction. The unique cultures and lifestyles of the Berbers, the oldest indigenous people of North Africa, who primarily constitute the region’s population, combined with the majestic landscape of the mountains, create a different experience for visitors.
