Centres of civilisation from ancient times, Morocco and the Middle East are full of rich history and mystique. At the crossroads of the civilised world you can find ancient sandblasted ruins, intricate architecture and amazing natural landscapes peopled by resilient and friendly locals. Tendrils of coffee aroma and shisha smoke mingle with the scents of spices as you wander through the bazaars, with the sound of haggling punctuating the background murmur.
Join one of our tours and discover the lesser explored areas by foot. Discover landscapes that beguile and can be found nowhere else. The unique culture and cuisine offer a real departure from the Western norms, and seeing it all on foot gets you the most authentic experience possible.
