Gateway to the Sahara

Morocco is so close to Europe but yet so far in terms of culture and wildlife. It is rich in diversity from the high alpine crags of the Atlas mountains to the edges of the Sahara desert and the important wetlands on the coastline.

Cream-coloured Courser and Bald Ibis together with 8 species of Wheatear and 11 species of Lark are just a few of the many birds we will be enjoying on this journey.
