Morocco

November 2016


We traveled to large, royal cities, small Berber villages, the High Atlas Mountains and the Sahara Desert on our two-week, private tour with a Moroccan guide and a Moroccan driver in a Mercedes van.  


Morocco – an exotic country of kind, friendly people, medinas, souks and Kasbahs teeming with mystery and intrigue, luxurious royal palaces, a culture embracing the Spanish and French colonial past and the Arabic and Berber present, date palm groves, vast olive tree plantations, Roman ruins, and the breathtaking scenery of the High Atlas Mountains and the Sahara Desert.  


A truly special experience!
