Why Morocco and Essaouira?
Morocco is easily accessible in around four hours or less from many European airports. The country, its culture and cuisine offer a fascinating juxtaposition of Africa, the Orient and Europe, from the majestic Atlas Mountains and the ancient grandeur of imperial cities to impressive desert landscapes and the charm of the Atlantic coast.
Essaouira, Morocco’s Windy City, is the pearl of the Moroccan Atlantic coast. The picturesque blue-and-white harbour town’s historic Medina is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Enjoy cultural events, watch fishing boats land their catch, walk the imposing ramparts and discover the Medina’s secrets: winding alleys leading to pretty squares, characterful shops and galleries, markets filled with craftwork, restaurants serving the traditional tagine – and precious Argan oil, unique to the region.
