About Morocco

Morocco is a North African destination where Arab, Amazigh and European influences meet in a landscape of ancient cities, mountains, deserts and coastline. From the winding medinas of imperial cities to the dunes of the Sahara, the country offers a striking range of experiences for leisure and business travellers alike.

Cities such as Casablanca, Marrakesh, Fes, Rabat and Tangier each have their own character. Marrakesh is known for its historic medina, gardens and lively squares, Fes preserves one of the world's oldest university medinas, while Casablanca serves as the country's commercial heart and a major gateway.

Beyond the cities, Morocco spans the Atlas Mountains, the Sahara desert and Atlantic and Mediterranean coastlines. Historic architecture, Amazigh villages, regional cuisine and traditions of craftsmanship shape much of the country's identity, alongside a long history reflected in monuments and UNESCO-listed sites.

Morocco is a major destination for tourism, international conferences and business travel, with growing connections to Europe, the Middle East and Africa. Major events, trade activity and cultural festivals bring visitors to its cities throughout the year.

A network of international airports, motorways, railways and bus connections links the main cities and regions, supporting practical travel between airports, hotels, business districts, event venues and tourist destinations.
