Morocco stands at the western extremity of the Arab and the Muslim world. Seperated only by 9 miles from Europe. A gateway for travellers into Africa. A country of inspiration and romantic allure for the westerner. Its greatest charm lies in the labyrinths of the imperial cities. Rabat, Marrakech, Meknes,and Fes. It is with no doubt that Morocco is home to an amazing rich architectural tradition and its medieval cities,Roman ruins,Berber fortresses,and beautiful Islamic monuments are among the the best examples of the their kind in the world.

Tangier, Casablanca, Marrakech...just the names of these cities and towns should stir a hint of spice in the nostrils of the most geographically challenged. Many Moroccan destinations have been mythologized, and for good reason, but the more jaded traveller may well moan about the extinction of the `real' Morocco. Still others will extol the country's unique living history, its shimmering light, its art.
Morocco is the ideal starting point for the traveller to Africa. An easy hop from Europe, it can be a friendly, hectic and stimulating place to get around in. Open-air markets throughout the country are piled high with rugs, woodwork, and jewellery.
Spectacularly diverse, Morocco combines sand, sea and snow. The southern coast stretches to the edge of the Western Sahara while to the north the bulk of Morocco's population fills the foothills of the often snow-capped Atlas Mountains. The mountains are important obstacles against the invasion of the desert.
Between the mountains and Morocco's Atlantic coast are plateaus and plains which are fertile and well watered.
The `coolest of the hottest countries', Morocco's colder months are most un-African. In the higher regions in particular, winter conditions can be positively Arctic. In summer, the mountains are hot during the day and cool at night. The rainy season between November and April is something of a misnomer, bringing only occasional light rain.

From the `standard' Arabic culture, Morocco has developed an elaborate patchwork of artistic traditions. The thread holding it all together is music; from the classical style that developed in Muslim Spain and the storytelling musical traditions of the indigenous Berbers through to the contemporary fusion of African, French, pop and rock. Although identified more with Algeria, Rai (opinion) music is a burgeoning force in Morocco. Despite its distinctly Arab-African rhythms (it owes much to Bedouin music), it's probably the most thoroughly westernised style, combining a variety of electrical instruments to create a hypnotic effect.

Merzouga:  
The dromedary is the only and vailable mean of transport in the desert. When we arrive to the dunes, we leave our 4x4 landrovers behind and take part in a camelride with the native camelman. This excursion can be at any time during the day; early in the morning to admire the colourful sunrise from the top of the dunes, in the day to meet nomads or in the afternoon to enjoy the sunset and a bivouac (in nomad tents) in a oase inside the erg.

We can also go for a camelride for more than one day starting from one of the Berber village near the erg like Merzouga or hassi Labiad. These itineraries will allow us discover the villages and fossils sites and also the nomad camps. A lunch iwth nomads is an experience not to miss.
If it about long rides and walks itineraries, the bivouac is considered a relaxing site in an ocean of silence. A night in such a place is the ideal cure against stress.
The evening is animated by the black people and Berber music and songs while the night is marked with silence and the the charming stars and the sky.
