Morocco is one of the world's great sensory adventures, and it's remarkably close to home. In 2026 this North African gem remains a family favourite, pairing ancient medinas and Sahara dunes with mountain trails and a coastline made for sunset.
Expect soft adventure and mindful, experiential travel: sleep under desert stars, trek Berber villages in the High Atlas, and learn to cook a tagine from a local host.
With a short flight from the UK, seamless connections and a growing base of remote-work-friendly riads, Morocco also works beautifully for bleisure. Come for the colour, the craft and the legendary hospitality.
