Here's my top five reasons to visit Morocco.

1
00:00:05,820 --> 00:00:07,760
Number five. The price. For example.

2
00:00:07,769 --> 00:00:11,310
This Riad in Marrakesh is £25 per night per person.

3
00:00:11,539 --> 00:00:15,029
I look at it, it's spectacular. Overall, Morocco is a cheap country.

4
00:00:15,100 --> 00:00:18,069
Food and drink is super affordable and it's all fresh.

5
00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:21,610
You can even get a full course dinner from anywhere between five and £10.

6
00:00:21,639 --> 00:00:25,309
Accommodation like you just saw, is quite inexpensive even in the high end.

7
00:00:25,319 --> 00:00:26,809
Riad in the city centres

8
00:00:27,079 --> 00:00:31,280
and also transport between the big cities, is also really easy and well priced.

9
00:00:31,319 --> 00:00:34,209
We paid around £10 for a five hour bus from Chef

10
00:00:34,470 --> 00:00:34,729
went to,

11
00:00:35,319 --> 00:00:37,250
and it was a very comfortable bus as well.

12
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:41,209
Also, remember to tip and barter, especially in the market.

13
00:00:41,930 --> 00:00:43,380
Number four. The History.

14
00:00:44,729 --> 00:00:48,860
Morocco is a melting pot for many different cultures African Arabic,

15
00:00:48,990 --> 00:00:50,209
berba to name a few.

16
00:00:50,349 --> 00:00:53,139
So this means the history of the country is super interesting.

17
00:00:53,340 --> 00:00:56,830
The Berber culture in particular, dates back to 4000 years ago,

18
00:00:57,020 --> 00:00:59,099
and visiting the Berber regions of Morocco makes

19
00:00:59,110 --> 00:01:00,900
you feel like you've gone back in time.

20
00:01:01,259 --> 00:01:03,930
Rural Morocco is an amazing taste of a region

21
00:01:03,939 --> 00:01:06,150
of the world where civilization was birthed from.

22
00:01:06,330 --> 00:01:09,470
And the architecture of urban Morocco is full of history, too.

23
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:13,400
Which leads me to number three. Number three, The Crazy City. Medina.

24
00:01:13,849 --> 00:01:16,300
The Medina are the old towns of the cities.

25
00:01:16,339 --> 00:01:19,470
And let me tell you, they are the most fascinating places we visited.

26
00:01:19,930 --> 00:01:21,900
It's easier to get lost than to actually find

27
00:01:21,910 --> 00:01:24,089
your way through the socks and the alleys,

28
00:01:24,099 --> 00:01:25,370
but that's part of the fun.

29
00:01:25,699 --> 00:01:27,930
The things you stumble across are so interesting,

30
00:01:27,940 --> 00:01:31,790
like the world renowned artisans, craftsmen and, of course, carpets,

31
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:36,209
but also less picturesque things like this Camel's head.

32
00:01:36,709 --> 00:01:40,050
The Medina in particular, is a UNESCO World Heritage site,

33
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:42,889
and it's the largest urban car free zone in the

34
00:01:42,900 --> 00:01:45,510
world and also the largest Medina in the world,

35
00:01:45,519 --> 00:01:45,949
too.

36
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,970
If you're looking for a culture shock and a real adventure,

37
00:01:48,980 --> 00:01:51,599
then head into the Medina with no plan at all.

38
00:01:51,610 --> 00:01:54,050
But just remember a map in case you get lost.

39
00:01:54,910 --> 00:01:57,389
Number two Landscape diversity

40
00:01:57,629 --> 00:02:02,440
From the coast to the Atlas Mountains, the Sahara Desert to the Woodlands,

41
00:02:02,449 --> 00:02:06,050
agricultural plains and even Africa's Grand Canyon,

42
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,538
the geography of Morocco is something amazing to experience.

43
00:02:09,550 --> 00:02:12,039
There's also loads of wildlife amongst these landscapes,

44
00:02:12,050 --> 00:02:14,759
including monkeys and a variety of different birds.

45
00:02:14,770 --> 00:02:17,490
So we couldn't help but learn about the terrain of the lands.

46
00:02:17,500 --> 00:02:20,000
We travelled through the variety in different landscapes is

47
00:02:20,009 --> 00:02:22,539
definitely one of the reasons you should visit Morocco

48
00:02:23,570 --> 00:02:25,339
and number one, the people.

49
00:02:25,660 --> 00:02:27,669
What can I say about the Moroccan people?

50
00:02:27,899 --> 00:02:30,570
Welcoming, kind, helpful and happy.

51
00:02:30,649 --> 00:02:33,580
Some people saw my camera and asked to have their picture taken

52
00:02:33,589 --> 00:02:36,809
or be involved in the vlogs without wanting anything in return.

53
00:02:36,839 --> 00:02:36,850
I

54
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:40,399
got invited to have mint tea in many different places by people

55
00:02:40,500 --> 00:02:41,509
we just met,

56
00:02:41,550 --> 00:02:45,889
and we were really taken back by the hospitality of a country so different to our own.

57
00:02:46,029 --> 00:02:48,479
This is what I love so much about travel,

58
00:02:48,490 --> 00:02:50,929
to feel at home through the kindness of others

59
00:02:50,940 --> 00:02:53,139
and to learn about the lives of different people.

60
00:02:54,710 --> 00:02:57,289
Morocco was the perfect place to do so.

61
00:02:58,110 --> 00:03:00,080
Anyone who wants to come to Morocco,

62
00:03:00,479 --> 00:03:00,839
we
