Morocco is a country made for travellers with its variety of cultures - Berber, Arab and the French legacy - and variety of landscapes from the mountains of the High Atlas to the southern valleys and coastal beaches. This updated handbook is written by two North Africa specialists who have travelled and worked in Morocco over many years. It contains practical information including: detailed coverage of all accommodation from youth hostels and camp sites to sophisticated and original hotels; restaurants, bars, discos and night-life; how to cope with travel in the desert; the latest information on trekking routes and mountaineering; and how to get about with the minimum of fuss. The practical information is backed up with a picture of the cultural, social and political situation, enabling travellers to plan their trip with confidence and ease.
