More about Atlas Mountains

The mountain range in the Maghrib area of North Africa stretches around 2,500 km (1,600 mi) through Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia. The mountain range has different names in each country, but in Morocco they are known as the Atlas Mountains. They are subdivided into three ranges, the Middle Atlas, the High Atlas and they Anti-Atlas. These mountains separate the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean from the large Sahara Desert. The highest peak with an elevation of 4,167 meters (13,671 ft) is Toubkal, is in central Morocco south of Marrakech. The Atlas Mountains are primarily inhabited by the native Moroccan Berbers. In the Berber language the words for 'mountain' are adrar and adras. The mountains are also home to several animals and plants found mostly in Africa, but some are also found in Europe. The weather is cooler than other part of Morocco but has sunny summers, with an average temperature there is 25°C. The Atlas Mountains are the meeting place of two different kinds of air masses—the humid and cold polar air masses that come from the north and the hot and dry tropical air masses that move up from the south. Therefore, they create a geographic obstacle stopping humidity from reaching the southern areas and stopping the hot dry winds from the Sahara Desert. As a result, the northern area is cooler and more fertile. The Atlas Mountains give Morocco a beautiful and diverse contrast of landscapes throughout the country. You should not miss the opportunity to experience this fascinating area of Morocco. With Morocco Meta Adventures you will see the best of the country. Don’t hesitate to contact us.

The city of Chefchaouen was founded in 1471 as a small kasbah by Ali ibn Rashid al-Alami, a descendant of Abd al-Salam ibn Mashish al-Alami and Idris I.

More about Desert (Sahara)

The Sahara Desert is like nowhere else on earth. The name comes from the Arabic word ‘sahra’ which means desert. This largest hot desert in the world covers one third of the African continent. It is exquisite in detail, from a white sand sea to an orange sand dune sculpted to perfection by the wind. But it also has Earth’s most hostile environment, dry and hot in the summer and cold in the winter. As a result, there is no vegetation in the desert. This desert of Morocco is a stunning place that makes you appreciate the beauty of the country. Visit the Sahara Desert with Morocco Meta Adventures for a once in a lifetime experience.

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 have a rich cultural mix. 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. Visitors to the Essaouira enjoy the many attractions of this laid back beautiful coastal town. And Essaouira's medina, a UNESCO World Heritage site is an exceptional example of a late-18th-century fortified town. 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. The port of Essaouira is a busy working port filled with fishing boats. Here you can see 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 city in Morocco by UNESCO.

More about Fez (Fes)

Fez (Fes) is the spiritual and cultural capital of Morocco. It is 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, and described it as "one of the most extensive and best conserved historic towns of the Arab-Muslim world". Fes is the first site in Morocco to be granted this status. 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 Ifrane
