Cities of Morocco

Morocco's cities are very different from one another. The four imperial cities, Marrakech, Fes, Meknes and Rabat, hold palaces, medinas and monuments. The Atlantic coast offers Casablanca, Essaouira and Agadir. In the north you will find Chefchaouen, Tangier and Tetouan, while the south opens onto desert towns such as Zagora, Merzouga and Ouarzazate. Use the guides below to choose where to spend your time, or see our 7-day itinerary for a route that links the highlights.
