From navigating bustling medinas to planning Sahara escapes, here is what first-time travellers should know before experiencing Morocco’s rich mix of culture and hospitality.

Nestled in the idyllic Atlas Mountains in Morocco, the Kasbah Tamadot’s home-from-home experience — with its idyllic scenery and quaintly-appointed private residences — wields an exceptional proposal on luxury travel.

The beads were discovered in Morocco sometime between 2014 and 2018 and are almost 150,000 years old.

Hidden gem: The Palais Amani, an upscale boutique hotel located in downtown Fez, is Morocco’s best kept secret. Not anymore.

The splendour of this hotel extends beyond an overnight stay albeit super luxurious – it’s a tradition-infused city in itself.

The Moroccan museum, the larger of the two dedicated to the life and work of the fashion icon, looks to attract 700,000 visitors yearly.
