Imperial Morocco

of all the trips to all the towns, you’ll want to play this one again!

This trip is an excellent introduction to Morocco’s centuries-old culture in a remarkably short space of time. You’ll visit the country’s three most beautiful imperial cities, ancient strongholds with maze-like streets surrounded by towering walls. You’ll see colourful markets, grand mosques, Koranic schools and ancient palaces. You’ll visit splendid Roman ruins, Morocco’s most important pilgrim city, its capital city and the snow-capped mountains of the High Atlas. And you’ll return home feeling that you’ve not only observed all of this Eastern culture at arm’s length but that you’ve been immersed up to your neck in it!
Imperial Morocco
  • • Casablanca Visit the Hassan II Mosque, drive via Rabat to the charming city of Meknes, formerly an imperial city and boasting a huge system of ramparts that form part of the ancient palace complex. «
  • • Marrakech Visit the largest of all the imperial cities and the southern capital, Marrakech. Our journey will take us through the Middle Atlas Mountains, offering glimpses of the imposing snow-covered peaks of the High Atlas Mountains. «
  • • Meknes A short drive from Meknes will take us to the once-great Roman city of Volubilis and the pilgrim city which holds the bones of the founder of Islam in Morocco, Moulay Idriss. We’ll then visit Fes, which simply exudes history and religion. «
  • • Majorelle Gardens Marrakech is also famous for great gardens, of which the Majorelle Gardens, created in 1920 by the French artist of the same name, is probably the most beautiful. The bright blue villa contrasts perfectly with the surrounding tropical plants growing in enormous jars and pots. «
  • • Medina of Fes Explore the sprawling labyrinthine alleys of Fes where donkeys and mules are the only form of transport in these steep and narrow streets. The most delicious scents come from the souk, where perfumes and spices are traded. «
  • • Bustling markets Marrakech is dynamic and typically Berber, you’ll love the bustling markets, the peaceful gardens and watching the sunset whilst listening to the call-to-prayer emanating from the mosques. «
