is a living experience of your
sensations.

the desert.

the textiles, wooden handicrafts, inlaid silver
jewelry of Moroccan artisans.
Taste
the cooking from different regions: Mechui,
Tajines, Almond pastilles.
Study
the ocean as it laps the white sand shores, or the
bright sky from inside an ancient palace or
crumbling kasbah, or the columns of 100 BC Roman
ruins.
 Live
the rich and varied Arabic and Berber folklore at
the colorful festivals that celebrate the arts and
traditions of Morocco.
The
Kingdom of Morocco, located in the NW corner of
Africa, has been occupied by different nations over
the centuries. You will find Roman ruins,
Portuguese forts, Arabic architecture. The majority
of people today are Arabic with a large minority of
Berbers, the indigenous people of Morocco who
escaped to the mountains and deserts to avoid the
Arabs more than 1000 years ago. The religion is
Muslim.
This
ancient land is bordered by the Atlantic and
Mediterranean Sea beaches, untouched stretches of
fine white sand. Snow-capped mountain ranges take
you by winding roads past cascading waterfalls.
Goats and sheep graze, and camels alongside burros
plow the fertile farmland in the plains. Plodding
rivers have cut deep gorges in red earth as the
terrain changes heading to the desert. The Sahara
Desert crosses the land (from the Atlantic to
Algeria and Mauritania), for you to discover the
oases, the black desert, golden sand dunes, salt
lakes, and prehistoric fossils for you to pick up
from ancient sea beds.
We
offer something special as the nomad Berber family
Ourdaras comes from the desert near Merzouga,
Morocco and are truly Men of the Sahara. They will
Take You Through Berber Villages, Medieval Souks,
Imperial Cities and Deep Into the Heart of Morocco
to Make Your Sahara Holidays a Lifetime Experience
of Your Senses.

Excerpt
from Discovering Agadir
by
Jerry W. Bird
 While
the route that winds its way along Morocco's
Atlantic Coast, from Essaouira south to Agadir, is
relatively short in distance, the scenery we
encountered was simply unforgettable. Muguette and
I were in good company, traveling by Land Rover
with Elena Hall, partner in the "Blue Men of
Morocco" tour company. We met her many months
ago via the Internet, and in person at the 6th ATA
Ecotourism Symposium in Fès a week earlier.
The trip was leisurely, and along the way, on
Elena's insistence, we made a one hour detour
inland, passing through a rugged, hilly area that
reminded me of Northern Arizona or Southern Utah.
The side trip was to a special area where our host,
was searching for "ammonite gonatite" fossils.
According
to Ms. Hall, an American living in Spain, the
country north of Agadir is the only area in Morocco
where such fossils are available. The seacoast
route provided a completely different vista with
miles of pristine, undisturbed beaches, lighthouses
and a variety of unique pastoral scenes
(continued
on next page).
