So sick and tired of the pouring rain I took a train to Morocco just to kill the pain

Sang the American band Moon Taxi in their song entitled Morocco.  Maybe they were catching the Marrakech Express 45 years after Crosby, Stills and Nash did the same. Despite the time lag between the two songs, Morocco is still a draw for tourists today.

If you fancy getting away from the wet weather of the past few weeks and fancy some sun then it seems that Moon Taxi had the right idea. Temperatures in Morocco are already into the early 20s and will gradually rise to the low 40s in the summer.

Marrakech was named as the 9th best destination in the world by Tripadvisor in 2019.  Known as the red city because of the colour of the walls that enclose the Medina in the old city.  Here you are likely to experience something closer to traditional Moroccan life.  Experience traditional Moroccan cuisine, culture and haggle over a bargain or two.

Agadir on the coast will provide you with a contrast.  Much of the city was rebuilt after an earthquake in the 1960s.  Near the base of the Atlas Mountains on the Atlantic Ocean, it is has a long wide beach perfect for swimming and watersports.  This makes a great contrast to bustling Marrakech so why not ask Maggie to book you a two centre holiday.
