  • Mystical, Exotic Morocco
    A Program of the Museum of Jewish Heritage We are dedicated to making your experience rich in content and superior in comfort. Rabbis, Saints and Healers: This unique travel program combines the expertise and resources of two organizations that cherish the traditions, achievements, and faith of Jewish communities – past and present – around the world. Jewish Heritage Travel MYSTICAL, EXOTIC and the Museum of Jewish Heritage are delighted to have the opportunity to share this rich, varied, and poignant history and culture with you on these select trips. We look forward to traveling with you. MOROCCO MARCH 4—MARCH 15, 2019 Program Overview Morocco — exotic, mysterious, sensuous, and dramatic—a land of extremes, from high mountain peaks to deserts, lush valleys, and Kasbahs. Morocco, homeland to a unique Jewish culture that was formed during the age of Islamic ascendancy and later flourished with the spread of European culture in the Middle East. Linked to the desert palm, “rooted in Africa, watered by Islam, and rustled by the winds of Europe,” Morocco combines African, Middle Eastern, and European influences to create a magical kingdom like no other. This trip will bring to life the history, tradition, and culture of Jewish Morocco, a fascinating meeting place of East and West. Led by Dr. Aryeh Maidenbaum and accompanied by Professor Yoram Bilu, an outstanding scholar from Israel and expert on Moroccan Jewry, as well as a superb local guide, we will immerse ourselves in the heritage and tradition of the Jews of Morocco. Experience the traditional arts, crafts, and music, and learn about the particular fascination that Moroccan Jews have had with charismatic rabbis, saints, and healers.

  • Magical Morocco’ 10 Days/9 Nights
    Tour Itinerary – ‘Magical Morocco’ 10 days/9 nights OVERVIEW Our Magical Morocco tour is a fabulous experience of touring the amazing land of 1,000 Kasbahs, the most famous desert in the world, Arabic architecture, Berber villages, stunning mountains, in short ‘MOROCCO’. A magical travel adventure where you immerse yourself in a totally different, rich and wonderful culture. This tour is an exclusive private tour for a minimum of two guests, so we can normally schedule it to meet the start date you require. Day 1: ARRIVAL We collect you upon arrival at Marrakech airport, or Casablanca, and take you to check-in to your beautiful Riad located near the centre of Marrakech where you will stay for the next 2 nights. Marrakech, is the fourth largest city in the Kingdom of Morocco. It is located to the west of the foothills of the Atlas Mountains, which provide a dramatic backdrop. Founded in 1062 in the Almoravid period, Marrakech grew rapidly and established itself as a cultural and religious centre and became a trading centre for Maghreb and sub-Saharan Africa. Andalusian craftsmen from Seville and Córdoba built and decorated numerous palaces in the city. The city became the Capital of the Almoravid Emirate, with great wealth from Gold and Silver being brought there in travelling caravans. As a result of its cultural reputation, Marrakesh attracted many writers and artists, especially from Andalucía, including the famous philosopher Averroes of Córdoba. Marrakech is one of the great Citadels of the Muslim World and is known as the Jewel of the South.

  • Marrakesh & Central Morocco ﻣراﮐش و وﺳط ﻣراﮐش
    © Lonely Planet Publications 290 Marrakesh & Central Morocco ﻣﺮﺍﻛﺶ ﻭ ﻭﺳﻂ ﻣﺮﺍﻛﺶ Through no fault of their own, maps can’t do central Morocco justice. On a city plan, Mar- rakesh’s walled medina looks like a neat bundle of streets, and the legendary Djemaa el- Fna like a glorified parking lot – but even the best satellite technology can’t capture the meanderings of covered souqs and the mayhem of backflipping Gnawa musicians. Towering Jebel Toubkal pops up to the south, but there’s no telling how those distant snowcapped High Atlas mountain ranges on both sides of Marrakesh cool the brain on a scorching summer’s day. Only on trails between these peaks can you appreciate the treks kids walk to get to school in the isolated Zat Valley, or the tenacity of red-stone villages wedged into rocky crevices in the Aït Bougomez Valley. Most of all, it seems impossible that so much life should exist so close to the expanse of desert just over the Tizi n’Tichka pass. What you can’t guess from longitude coordinates is the burbling river interrupting the stony-faced Todra Gorge, or the rocks melting like wax candles into the green carpet of the Dadès Gorge. Just when all signs of vegetation seem to have dried up in the Ziz and Draâ river valleys, water seeps through fissures and erupts into oases until the landscape is taken over by the Saharan sand dunes of Erg Chebbi (Merzouga) and Erg Chigaga (M’Hamid). Mileage suggests you can return from the Sahara to Marrakesh in one day flat, but central Morocco is the place to put down the map, get lost and live a little.
