Casablanca is the economic capital of Morocco and the commercial hub of western Morocco. On the Atlantic Ocean it is the largest and busiest city in the country. The Port of Casablanca is one of the largest artificial ports in the world. The Hassan II Mosque, which stands partly over the ocean and was completed in 1993.  It is one of the largest and most ornate mosques in the world.  It has a 210-meter minaret topped with lasers directed toward Mecca. The city's handsome Moorish buildings, which meld French-colonial design and traditional Moroccan style, are best admired in the downtown area.  Visitors who spend time in the Quartier Habous or Nouvelle Medina (the New Medina) built by the French in the 1930’s or in the beachside suburb of Ain Diab, are sure to get into the local swing of things.  This old pirate lair, now a modern city, is looking towards the future but also embracing the European-flavored urban sophistication that has underpinned life here for the past century. This city is certainly worth a visit.  With Morocco Meta Adventures you will see the best of the country.  Don’t hesitate to contact us.

More about Essaouira

Essaouira lies on the crossroads between two tribes: the Arab Chiadma to the north and the Haha Berbers in the south.  Add to that the Gnawa, who came originally from further south in Africa, and the Europeans, and you get a rich cultural mix.  Essaouira, called Mogador until 1960, is known as the `Wind city of Africa`. It attracts surfers, windsurfers and kite surfers all taming the waves between April and November.

It attracts surfers, windsurfers and kite surfers all taming the waves between April and November. Visitors to the Essaouira will enjoy the many attractions of this laid back beautiful coastal town.  Essaouira's medina, a UNESCO World heritage is an exceptional example of a late-18th-century fortified town. The ramparts, called Scala de la Kasbah, around the medina are quite impressive as they're built on the cliffs.  Along the ramparts, there are old cannons from the 16th century lined up and pointing out over the Atlantic Ocean.  If you watched Game of Thrones, this sight might be familiar.  Stroll along the ramparts and look over to Purpuraires island where you will see birds hovering above this nature reserve.  Or just relax and watch the sun set over the Atlantic. Visitors can wander through the spice-scented lanes and palm-lined avenues of the Essaouira`s fortified medina.  They can browse the many art galleries and boutiques of handcrafted goods.  And they can enjoy watching artisans carve from Thuya, a local native cedar wood. The port of Essaouira is a busy working port filled with fishing boats.  Watch the nets being repaired and the daily catch being sold every afternoon to restaurants around the harbor area.  Then buy your choice of fish and take it to your favourite restaurant to be cleaned and cooked for you. Essaouira is rated as the most beautiful cities in Morocco by UNESCO.  And the beaches surrounding Essaouira are rated as blue flag meaning they have met high environmental and quality standards.  Make your visit to this beautiful city a memorable one with Morocco Meta Adventures.  Contact us to arrange your tour.  

More about Fez (Fes)

Fez (Fes) is the spiritual, cultural, and intellectual capital of Morocco.  It is primarily known for its famous medina of which there are two parts.  One is Fes el-Bali, the site of the famous Qarawiyyin University and the Zawiya of Moulay Idris II, important religious and cultural sites.  The other is Fez el-Jdid, the site of the 195-acre Royal Palace.  Both sites are linked together and referred to as the Medina of Fes.  In 1981, UNESCO designated the Medina of Fes, a World Heritage site, describing it as "one of the most extensive and best conserved historic towns of the Arab-Muslim world.  Fes was the first site in Morocco to be granted this status. This enchanting labyrinth of alleyways remains much as it did centuries ago.  During its heyday, Fes attracted scholars and philosophers, mathematicians and lawyers, astronomers and theologians.   Craftsmen built them houses and palaces.  Kings endowed mosques and medrasas (religious schools). And merchants offered exotic wares from the silk roads and sub-Saharan trade routes.  All of which can be seen today. The Medina of Fes is maybe the world’s largest car-free urban area.  Here you see carts pulled along cobbled lanes by donkeys, horses or people.  The vibrant souks with their handcrafted works of art, the vendors hawking their wares and the incredible architectural details in the many buildings offer a visual feast to the visitor.  As well, there is the Chouara Tannery, one of the most popular attractions in Fes. Although Fes lost its influence at the beginning of the 19th century, it remains a supremely self-confident city whose cultural and spiritual lineage beguiles visitors.  Soak in the old-world atmosphere of this living museum on your visit.   Contact us and let Morocco Meta Adventures be your guide in Fes.

More about Marrakech
