Why Travel to Morocco for the Holidays?
Traveling to Morocco during the festive season offers unique experiences for every type of traveler:
Traveling to Morocco with FRIENDS
This getaway will let your group experience the adventure of a desert trip. You will have fun driving a quad or a buggy in the dunes, doing sandboarding, enjoying Moroccan nights in the trendy restaurants of Marrakech and their cozy riads, and more. Or perhaps you want to join a Christmas yoga retreat in Morocco. All done at an affordable price. Discovering a different culture is a rewarding milestone you will never forget.
FAMILY Christmas Holidays in Morocco / Travel with KIDS
Traveling with your children to discover a land where everything is different for them is a wonderful experience that will surely reinforce your family bonds—the best gift they may receive. Their best experience will be to ride the camels, and they might have the opportunity of playing with children from a very different origin, which is always an enrichment. The whole environment will be magic: different cities, landscapes, people, and the desert. We adapt the trips to the whole family.
COUPLE Trip to Morocco
Marrakech, Tangier, and all of Morocco offer romantic getaways. Combine your discovering trip with a stay in the most cozy riads and their neverending breakfasts in the sun on the terrace. Take dinner with candles on the top roofs of Marrakech or the best restaurants in Morocco. Try a hammam, a spa, a henna tattoo, a balloon ride in Marrakech, or a night in a luxury tent in the Sahara desert. Enjoy each moment together on a private trip and build memories.
TRAVELERS SEEKING COMFORT AND CULTURE
The experience of traveling to enjoy the pleasures of Morocco is a most well-deserved reward. Enjoy culture, delightful gastronomy, all the comforts of high standards of accommodation, and slow tourism. Wellness can be experienced in multiple ways in Marrakech, Merzouga, Tangier, or any other place in the country.
When is the Best Time to Travel to Morocco at Christmas?
Both before and after Christmas are great, and even before at the beginning of December. Morocco has multiple options to spend these days. The luxury and trendy Marrakech allows you to enjoy Christmas in a charming riad.
Morocco At Christmas Or Before: Some travelers travel even the first half of December or just the week before Christmas Eve, so that you can be at home by then. Others travel during the week around it, gaining “red days” to have a longer holiday at the end of the year.
