During this photo tour we will accompany you to discover the extraordinary nature of Morocco. It’s a Constitutional Monarchy that occupies the northwestern part of North Africa and is the crossroads between Europe and Africa. It is bordered to the north by the Mediterranean and the Spanish enclaves of Ceuta and Melilla, to the west by the Atlantic, to the east by Algeria and to the south by Mauritania. In the North and in the coast the climate is of Mediterranean type while in the hinterland it is desert. It has a majority Arab ethnicity and a Berber minority. Its capital is Rabat. Morocco is crossed by two main mountain ranges, the Rif in the northern part parallel to the Mediterranean coast, the Atlas that is divided into High Atlas and Middle or Small Atlas that runs from North to South up to the gates of the Sahara Desert. The Rif is less known than the other mountain ranges of Morocco but offers spectacular scenery based on limestone cliffs, gorges, valleys and waterways. With more than 400 peaks that reach up to 3000 meters and many above 4000 meters, the Atlas massif imposes itself, which will give us in this photo tour breathtaking scenery and true pearls, such as the Tessaout Valley and its red villages, where the land with which the houses are made merges with the rock and the mountains. The area is populated mainly by Berber tribes and the views offered from this point of view are breathtaking, ranging from the burnt ocher of the earth to the

blue blue of the sky to the green of the oases up to the dizzying mountain peaks. To the south, close to the Atlantic coast and the borders with the Sahara Desert we find the Little Atlas with its dry climate, arid landscapes and particularly high summer temperatures. At the foot of the Atlas opens the Land of the Dunes. The desert provides wonderful light at dawn and sunset, when the sandy ocean comes to life with its warm and intense colors. We enter the WĀDĪ beds of rivers or valleys and the Erg, vast plateaus made up of sandy stretches covered by dunes opposed to the rocky

desert and serir (pebble desert). Photographers will also enjoy the opportunity to hone their skills behind the lens, taking lessons from our photo guide who knows all the tips and tricks when it comes to taking an incredible photo. One thing is certain: you will leave the charming Morocco with incredible new additions to your photo portfolio.
