Morocco feels close to Europe but entirely its own. The old walled medinas of Marrakech and Fes are full of markets and craftspeople, the Atlas Mountains offer cool air and Berber villages, and the Sahara waits beyond them. Trains join the main northern cities, while a private driver is often the best way to reach the south.
