Morocco: a destination waiting to be discovered
Although our Marseille-Morocco route is currently suspended, Morocco remains a destination waiting to be discovered. Whilst we await a possible resumption of flights, we’ll continue to share our tips and ideas for exploring the country and planning a future trip.
Cities to visit, must-see attractions, practical advice: here are a few ideas for things to do and things to bear in mind when planning a trip to Morocco.
Escape to the desert and the valleys of the south
Beyond the cities, southern Morocco unfolds its golden dunes, oases and valleys sculpted by time. It offers a different kind of travel experience, characterised by silence, wide open spaces and nights under the stars. Here you’ll come across ochre-coloured kasbahs, palm groves and villages clinging to the hillsides, far from the hustle and bustle of the coast. Setting off on the road south means accepting the need to slow down so you can savour every stage of the journey to the full. Our page dedicated to the Moroccan desert and the southern valleys takes you along these roads to the far reaches of the country.
Let’s sit down to eat
Moroccan cuisine in itself embodies the art of hospitality. Slow-cooked tagines, Friday couscous, sweet-and-savoury pastilla, shared mint tea: every dish is an invitation to conviviality. Flavours vary from region to region, depending on the spices and seasonal produce. Discovering this cuisine also means gaining a better understanding of the country’s culture and its sense of hospitality. To whet your appetite before you set off, discover Morocco’s iconic dishes.
Follow the guide
A first trip to Morocco always raises a thousand questions. Where to start, what to see first, how to get from one place to the next? The country offers such a variety of landscapes and towns that it’s best to have a few points of reference before you set off. A good itinerary is one that suits you and leaves room for the unexpected. Our guide to visiting Morocco brings together all the essentials you need to plan a trip at your own pace.
Exploring the imperial cities
Marrakech, Fez, Meknes, Rabat: the imperial cities are the guardians of the kingdom’s history. Their bustling medinas, palaces, ramparts and gardens tell the story of centuries of life and power. It’s easy to lose yourself in the souks here, or take the time to enjoy a coffee in the shade of a patio. Each city has its own character, ranging from bustling energy to tranquil charm. Find out more on our page about Morocco’s imperial cities.
Choosing the right time to visit
Morocco is experienced differently depending on the season. A bit of preparation makes all the difference and helps you avoid any unpleasant surprises.
Choosing the right time of year
The heat of the south, the mild climate of the coast, the coolness of the mountains: Morocco’s climate varies greatly from one region to another. Depending on the time of year, you might prefer the coast, the interior or the peaks of the Atlas Mountains. Spring and autumn often offer the best balance for comfortable travel. To time your trip just right, check out our guide on when to visit Morocco.
Travelling in December
Winter has its own charm in Morocco, with its soft light and quieter crowds. It’s a season that’s often underestimated, ideal for visiting cities without the crowds and enjoying lower prices. The days remain bright on the coast, whilst the Atlas Mountains are sometimes blanketed in snow. We give you a glimpse of this on our page dedicated to Morocco in December, and more specifically to Marrakech in December for those planning a trip to the ‘ochre city’.
Understanding Ramadan
Travelling during Ramadan means discovering the country in a unique light, shaped by its traditions. Daily routines change, and the atmosphere shifts at sunset, when families gather to break their fast. It is an emotionally rich time, provided you are familiar with the customs so that you can travel respectfully. We’ll shed some light on Ramadan in Morocco and its impact on daily life.
Planning your trip with peace of mind
A great trip also involves sorting out the practical details. A few checks beforehand can help you avoid many unexpected problems once you’re there.
Gathering your documents
ID card, passport, and any other formalities depending on your situation: it’s better to plan ahead than to find yourself stuck at the last minute. The documents you’ll need may vary depending on the length and nature of your stay. Taking the time to check all this in advance means you can set off with peace of mind. Find out what to do on our page on travel documents for Morocco, which summarises the documents you’ll need.
Travelling by motorhome
Morocco is the perfect destination for a motorhome holiday, offering the freedom to choose your own route and meet new people along the way. You’ll find designated motorhome sites, off-road tracks for the more adventurous, and landscapes that change with every bend in the road. However, this way of travelling does require a bit of planning to ensure your route and equipment are properly prepared. We’ve set out the essentials on our page about travelling through Morocco by motorhome.
Events and highlights
Morocco is also home to events that punctuate the year and lend a special flavour to your trip.
Operation Marhaba
Every summer, Operation Marhaba supports families returning to Morocco. It is a significant event, both on a human and logistical level, which mobilises considerable resources to facilitate the crossings. Behind the organisation, it is above all about reunions and reconnecting with one’s roots for the duration of the summer.
The Africa Eco Race
For sports and adventure enthusiasts, the Africa Eco Race links the Mediterranean to the African tracks in the spirit of a legendary rally. The event traverses spectacular landscapes, from sandy dunes to the continent’s arid expanses. It is as much a human adventure as it is a sporting one, driven by a desire to push one’s limits.
A seasonal suspension; the future under review
The Marseille–Tangier Med route has been suspended for the low season, and the future of our service to Morocco remains under review for the coming summer seasons. At this stage, we are unable to commit to resuming the service.
We invite you to follow our news updates to stay informed of any developments. If you have booked a crossing and your journey is affected, our teams are here to support you: they will contact each passenger individually, and our helpline remains open on 0970 83 20 20. Thank you for your trust, season after season.
