Morocco

Why go ?

Mosques, mountains, mint tea, medinas, Marrakech&helip;. One could be forgiven for thinking that all Morocco’s charms begin with ‘m’. (Of course, that would be doing Tangier, tagines and tadelakt tiling a great disservice&helip;)

Where to stay

Wake up in Marrakech’s royal gardens at opulent La Mamounia, where Winston Churchill went to escape the rat-race. Stay on at labyrinthine El Fenn, a traditional riad sweetened with rose-pink furnishings. Hop to Fez for more magic in handsome, historic Palais Amani. Finish with a dash of Essaouiran coastal glamour at leafy Le Jardin des Douars.

something to write home about

Morocco’s default drink, sugary mint tea, warms you on chilly Atlas Mountain nights and soothes you in the midday Marrakech sun. Take it with breakfast and a sea view in Essaouira or while browsing Berber blankets in the Medina.

when to go

Spring in Morocco is balmy and beautiful, lacking the extreme heat that can make summertime-exploring a challenge. You’ll still get warm days in winter, but expect the temperature to plummet by night, especially up in the mountains.
