| Description: | Morocco is a kingdom governed by Parliament. Steep yourself in history and heritage in any of Morocco’s major cities. Located on the Straight of Gibraltar and the Mediterranean coast, Tangier is the gateway to Europe with many swift ferry crossings per day making it an easy day trip from Spain. While here shop the souks, sip mint tea on the square in any of the myriad cafes and take a promenade - it is the beach after all. While a great deal of effort is being made to make this historic port town a world-renowned modern destination it boasts historical influences of the Spaniards, Portuguese, Romans, Arabs and others. Spend a little time exploring caves and a lighthouse or channel your inner Beatnik! Arguably the most charming and beautiful Moroccan village awash with varying shades of sky blue nestled among the lush and wild poppy fields of the Rif Mountains. Artsy, even hippyish, this old Andalusian town, where Spanish is still spoken, is popular with hikers and backpackers and those wishing a more laid back vibe. Find inner peace and your free spirit as an easy day trip from either Fes or Tangier. Not to be missed as part of your Truly Morocco visit. Escape the heat and bustle of Marrakech for this quaint seaside port where fishing and boat making are still the mainstay. Enjoy surfing, windsurfing or a harbor cruise. Take it easy and stroll along the beach or ramparts and browse galleries, shop for local handicrafts in the medina or catch the weekly fish auction. Can be enjoyed as a day trip from Marrakech or as part of your Truly Morocco experience. Exhibiting splendid and grand Moorish architecture, Meknes is one of Morocco’s Imperial Cities and an easy day trip from Fes. One of the larger cities, it’s situated in the heart of a bountiful agricultural area and has long been considered Morocco’s food basket. Neighboring Volubilis is an ancient Roman town where you can journey back to the 3rd century and the most important archaeological site in Morocco. |
