Why Morocco

— The country

Why Morocco

A land of contrasts

Morocco is the Atlantic and the Mediterranean, the desert and the high mountains, imperial cities and Berber villages. A mosaic of landscapes, cultures and flavours across 446,000 km².

A three-hour flight from the major European capitals, the country offers a complete change of scene: different time zone (UTC+1), currency (the dirham, MAD), languages (Arabic, Berber and French) — yet immediate cultural closeness.

What makes Morocco unique

Geographical diversity

Mediterranean coastlines to the north. The Atlantic from Essaouira to Dakhla in the west. Imperial cities in the centre. The Sahara and its dunes in the south.

An everyday cuisine

Tagine, couscous, pastilla, harira. A cuisine of slow cooking, spices and sharing.

Legendary hospitality

An invitation to mint tea is not a formality — it's a ritual. Welcome in Morocco comes with generosity and curiosity.

Entry

No visa needed for 90 days

Morocco is a safe and stable country. No visa needed for EU, Swiss, Canadian or American citizens — just a passport valid for 6 months.

A living heritage

9 UNESCO World Heritage sites, including the medinas of Fez, Marrakech, Tetouan and Essaouira. Craftsmanship on every street corner: rugs, ceramics, brassware, Berber weavers.
