From the bustling souks to the serene Sahara, this North African gem has something for everyone. To help you make the most of your trip, we’ve rounded up the must-do experiences in Morocco that will give you major FOMO (fear of missing out, for the uninitiated). So grab your sun hat and let’s dive in!
Wander Through the Medina of Marrakech
First stop: Marrakech! The medina, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is a labyrinth of narrow alleyways, colourful souks, and historic sites. Lose yourself in the hustle and bustle, haggle for some gorgeous handcrafted goods, and don’t forget to visit the iconic Jemaa el-Fnaa square. As the sun sets, the square transforms into a lively hub of food stalls, musicians, and street performers. Trust us, you won’t want to miss this vibrant spectacle.
Stay in a Luxurious Riad
When in Morocco, do as the Moroccans do and stay in a riad. These traditional houses with interior gardens or courtyards offer a serene retreat from the city’s chaos. Imagine sipping mint tea on a rooftop terrace while gazing at the Atlas Mountains or unwinding in a beautifully tiled courtyard. Riads are the epitome of Moroccan charm and luxury, and staying in one is an experience in itself.
Camel Trekking in the Sahara Desert
No trip to Morocco is complete without a camel trek in the Sahara. There are a couple of tours you can book via TUI Musement depending on where in Morocco you are staying. If you’re staying in Agadir, there’s a fantastic Camel Trek & BBQ Experience that picks you up from your hotel and takes you to enjoy a leisurely camel ride followed by a delicious BBQ under the evening sky.
Relax in a Traditional Hammam
After days of exploring, treat yourself to some serious relaxation in a traditional hammam (Moroccan bathhouse). Experience the cleansing rituals of steam baths, scrubs, and massages that will leave you feeling rejuvenated and refreshed. Many luxury riads and hotels offer hammam services, combining traditional techniques with modern comforts for the ultimate pampering session.
Get Lost in the Gardens of Majorelle
For a dose of tranquillity amidst the chaos, visit the enchanting Jardin Majorelle in Marrakech. Once owned by Yves Saint Laurent, this botanical garden is a lush oasis of exotic plants, vibrant blue structures, and tranquil water features. It’s the perfect spot to relax, take a leisurely stroll, and snap some gorgeous photos.
Savour Moroccan Cuisine
Last but definitely not least, indulge in the mouthwatering flavours of Moroccan cuisine. Feast on tagines, couscous, and pastilla, and don’t forget to try some traditional mint tea. For a truly immersive experience, join a cooking class where you can learn to prepare these delicious dishes yourself. Your taste buds will thank you!
