The year 2023 was a record year for Morocco as a tourism destination, surpassing pre-pandemic figures. By the end of November, the country welcomed 13.3 million visitors, and estimates for the full year predict around 14.5 million visitors. This achievement represents a remarkable 12.5 per cent increase over the figures recorded in 2019, solidifying Morocco's status as a thriving and increasingly popular destination for travellers.

Cultural Odyssey

Nestled at the crossroads of civilisations, Morocco beckons with a rich mosaic of history and diverse landscapes. Home to the oldest human remains, this ancient civilisation serves as a gateway between worlds. Morocco's monarchy, dating back to the 9th century, stands as the world's second-oldest ruling monarchy. With over 9,000 monuments and nine UNESCO World Heritage Sites, the nation unfolds a cultural odyssey.

Morocco’s landscape is a visual symphony from the Mediterranean's serene coves to the snowy peaks of the Atlas Mountains, the plains of the Atlantic coast, or the sands of the Sahara Desert. Activities abound, from trekking in mountain valleys to thrilling water sports along the Atlantic coast. Culinary enthusiasts indulge in Morocco's renowned cuisine, while global hospitality and air transport brands ensure a comfortable sojourn. Morocco, where prehistoric traces meet modern indulgence, invites exploration into its timeless allure.
