Terms About Camel Trekking:

Camel riding in the desert is not always a comfortable activity for everyone, but it is a beautiful, once in a lifetime experience.  Therefore, we have recommendations to consider as it may not be a suitable activity for all our clients.

  • Pregnant women

  • Those with a serious illness

Items to bring for your visit at the Dessert Camp:

  • A pair of shoes that are suitable for walking on the sand dunes, ideally closed to avoid getting sand inside.
  • Jeans are a good choice to wear while you are on your camel.
  • A flashlight to use at the camp in the dark.
  • Sunglasses and sunscreen for the bright sunshine and hot sun.

 

Things To Know Before You Go:

Is the drinking water safe in Morocco?
Usually, the water is safe in Morocco, but we recommend using the bottled mineral water for drinking, brushing your teeth, or washing fruit.  This avoids any issues that might affect your holiday. The tap water is fine for all other uses.

What will the weather be like?
Morocco is a land of contrasts, and the climate follows suit. Moroccan weather is typically sunny and warm but can be cooler in the mountains.  As mornings and nights are also cooler, we suggest bringing layers of clothing. Be prepared!

Spring and autumn are the most popular seasons for travel. Check the weather at www.weather.com.

What kind of clothing is appropriate for Women and Men?

Women visitors are not expected to cover their hair, arms, or legs. However, we suggest avoiding spaghetti straps, tight or revealing clothing and short skirts or shorts. Men may feel more comfortable in long pants as shorts are generally worn by young Moroccan men.

Is Morocco a safe country?

Morocco is a safe place to visit. As tourism is one of the main industries in the country the Moroccan government has done much to make the country safe for tourists from all over the world. Occasionally, you may encounter pickpockets but you’re unlikely to be assaulted or seriously hurt. Remember, always be a safe and savvy traveller and you will encounter many wonderful people in Morocco.

More about Dadès Valley

he Dadès Valley is one of the stunning valleys in the south of Morocco.  From the daunting High Atlas in the north to the rugged Jebel Saghro range south, the valley is dotted with oasis and mudbrick palaces.  As a result, the region has the fairy tale nickname - Valley of a Thousand Kasbahs.  Some of the best views are only glimpsed when travelling on foot along the hidden livestock tracks. These tracks are between the Dadès and Todra Gorges or nomad routes across the Saghro Massif. The area, which now forms the Dadès Gorges, lay at the bottom of the sea millions of years ago.  Great quantities of sediment were deposited around giant coral reefs.  Over time this material became compacted into a variety of sedimentary rocks such as sandstone and limestone. Eventually, the movement of the earth's crust caused the region to rise above the sea, forming the Atlas Mountains and surrounding landscape. Today, the Dades Valley attracts many professional photographers from all over the world. To take your own stunning photos add the Dadès Valley to your list with Morocco Meta Adventures.

Essaouira, called Mogador until 1960, is known as the `Wind city of Africa`.  As a result, it attracts surfers, windsurfers and kite surfers all taming the waves between April and November.

The ramparts, called Scala de la Kasbah, around the medina are impressive as they're built on the seaside cliffs.  Along the ramparts, there are old cannons from the 16th century lined up and pointing out over the Atlantic Ocean.  If you watched The Game of Thrones, this sight will be familiar.  Stroll along the ramparts and look over to the Purpuraires Island to see birds hovering above this nature reserve.  Or just relax and watch the sun set over the Atlantic. Wander through the spice-scented lanes and palm-lined avenues of the Essaouira`s fortified medina. Later, browse the many art galleries and boutiques of handcrafted goods.  And finally, watch artisans carve from Thuya, a local native cedar wood.

Essaouira is rated as the most beautiful city in Morocco by UNESCO.  And the beaches surrounding Essaouira are rated as blue flag meaning they have met high environmental and quality standards.  Therefore, make your visit to this beautiful city a memorable one with Morocco Meta Adventures.  Contact us to arrange your tour.

This enchanting labyrinth of alleyways remain much as they did centuries ago.  During its heyday, Fes attracted scholars and philosophers, mathematicians and lawyers, astronomers and theologians.   As a result, craftsmen built them houses and palaces.  Then kings endowed mosques and medrasas (religious schools).  And finally, merchants offered exotic wares from the silk roads and sub-Saharan trade routes. The Medina of Fes is maybe the world’s largest car-free urban area.  Here you will see only carts pulled along cobbled lanes by donkeys, horses or people.   This medina is a feast for all the senses.  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 never-ending display 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 enchants 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 Todra Gorges

The Todra Gorges are a series of limestone river canyons in the eastern part of the High Atlas Mountains. They are near the town of Tinerhir.  The road from Tinerhir passes through palm groves and Berber villages until high walls of pink and grey rock close in around the road.  Both the Todra and neighbouring Dades Rivers are responsible for carving out these deep cliff-sided canyons.  The height of the canyon walls can vary, but in some places can be up to 400 meters (1,312 ft) high.  A 300m-deep fault splits the orange limestone into a deep ravine.  At some points it is just wide enough for a crystal-clear river and single-file trekkers to squeeze through. The Todra Gorge is a stunningly beautiful destination for rock climbing or hiking. Many visitors from all over the world are attracted to this place.  Add this destination to your Moroccan travel checklist with Morocco Meta Adventures and see the best of the country.

More about Volubilis

Volubilis is a North African archaeological site, located near Fès in the Zerhoun mountain Plain of Morocco.  Volubilis developed under several civilizations and grew rapidly under Roman rule from the 1st century A.D. onwards until being taken by local tribes about 285.  Sitting in the middle of a fertile plain, this ruined Roman city is the best-preserved archaeological site in Morocco.  The many beautiful mosaics preserved in situ are a highlight of the visit.  In 1997 it was declared a UNESCO World Heritage site.  Volubilis is about 33km north of Meknes and can easily be combined with nearby Moulay Idriss Zerhoun to make a fantastic day trip from Meknes or Fez.   A visit to Volubilis will allow visitors, especially those with an interest in history and adventure, to experience the remnants of Morocco’s ancient past.   Ask Morocco Meta Adventures to arrange your tour.
