    This tour was a feast for the senses. The flavors of Moroccan cuisine, from tagines to fresh mint tea, were delightful. Visiting local markets and engaging with artisans added depth to the experience. The only downside was wishing for more time in each city, but the comprehensive itinerary ensured we saw the best of Morocco.
