Morocco Travel Guide
From the blue city of Chefchaouen to the red city of Marrakesh, Morocco is as vibrant and colorful as the hues that can be found across the country.
Although under the radar for the majority of travelers, Morocco presents an exciting opportunity to tap into a destination brimming with cultural delights. Where else can you go from surf to Sahara in the same day? Or from meandering through a medina to sipping mint tea, relaxing in a hammam to trying harira, and coming back to your riad to relax for the evening?
Thanks to its melting pot of Berber, Arabic, and European cultures, Morocco is the perfect country for those seeking new and exotic adventures. For those who want to take a sharp turn onto the path less traveled. For those who want to live boldly and adventurously.

Asilah is a delightful bohemian town where cultural festivals take place every summer. blue and white are the real stars. Bathed by the Atlantic, the wall surrounding this fishing village hides one of the most charming medinas in the country.
Casablanca is the economic and financial capital of Morocco, a vibrant city full of treasures to discover. Get ready to discover fascinating architecture backed by the French protectorate, places once frequented by mythical figures such as Edith Piaf or Saint-Exupéry and markets anything can be found.
In Chefchaouen, a small town in northern Morocco, all shades of blue intermingle in a combination that is as relaxing as photogenic. Chefchaouen, is the perfect place for a short getaway and breathe fresh air.
Dakhla, between dunes and lagoons, refuses to be conquered by mass tourism. It has become one of the most frequented places by lovers of surfing, kitesurfing and windsurfing, and has some of the most impressive beaches in the country.
It was a premier commercial enclave between Timbuktu and Europe in the 18th century, and a celebrated hippie colony in the 60s and 70s inaugurated by the visit of guitarist Jimi Hendrix. Today, in the 21st century, Essaouira's fishing vllage essence remains untouched.
The medina of Fez embodies Morocco's curious past, with its grandiose 19th century mosques, more than 9,000 winding (and vehicle-free) streets, and over 80,000 shops selling everything from handcrafted leather goods to local culinary treats. The biggest medina in the world is overwhelming and unique. Welcome to the chaos.
Thank you for a beyond amazing trip, or should I say experience. Even the weather was perfect. Everything was organized, on time and exceptionally executed.
You were truly instrumental in making our trip fantastic. Truthfully, I wish I were still there.
Many thanks and looking forward to something we can plan together again in the future. Abrazos,

Hands down, best tour trip ever 🙂

Dear Valeska,
Thank you so much for this helpful list! Gary and I are still talking about what a great time we had on the trip to Spain and how much we enjoyed meeting you, Fernando and Felix. You did an amazing job and we so appreciated seeing Spain's beautiful cities, historical treasures and of course the wonderful food, wine and people!
Gary and I wanted to thank you again for your continued care and concern as we spent three additional days in Madrid with the Millars. You and Fernando were so nice to make sure all went well and to see us off when we finally had to depart.
We are wishing you all the best and a wonderful holiday season ahead,

Valeska put together an incredible itinerary for my honeymoon to Spain. We were looking for a good mix of culture, food, and relaxation and she delivered on all fronts. She was easy to work with and really listened to our wishes in making recommendations.
All the private excursions that she arranged were excellent. At some point during every tour our guide received a message from our agent checking in on how everything was going. We felt very well taken care of during our honeymoon and very thankful for all the assistance Valeska provided in making this dream vacation come true.
