Reasons to Have Your Study Tour in Morocco

As the saying goes, there’s no better teacher than experience. But at Morocco Travel and Tour, the leading travel agency in Herndon, Virginia for tours to Morocco, we say that the best teacher is an educational experience—in short, a study tour. While we’re at it, allow us to say that Morocco ticks every box for a study tour that is as fun as it is educational. With an astonishing blend of history, tradition, and culture, it’s more accurate to look at the country as a whole world of its own.

We’ve given thousands of students the experience of a lifetime through our travel and tour in Virginia. Don’t wait until it’s too late! Here are the top reasons why you shouldn’t miss the opportunity:

• Morocco is a melting pot of cultures

  Morocco boasts the truest meeting of cultures if there ever was one. With a diverse history and traditions shaped by the cultures of Arabs, Berbers, French, Spanish, and even Romans, expect that you will only have scratched the surface when you start studying about the country.

• Morocco is the perfect haven for language immersion

  Does your foreign language skills from high school need some brushing up? In Morocco, you’ll be sure to do just that. In fact, you can practice with native speakers and fully immerse yourself into Arabic and the other languages used in the country.

  You don’t have to worry about initializing conversations, too. Don’t know how to speak Arabic? You’re in luck! Most Moroccans can speak fluent French. Not enough French? Spanish works just as fine, too. Not enough Spanish as well? English can get you by a little.

• Morocco is a fusion of old and modern progressive influences

  Morocco is pretty much still a conservative country, being able to keep most of its old traditions. However, like any other country in the world, modernity and the progressive ideals that the 21st century brings is slowly catching up. Thus, it’s only expected that Morocco today has been a vessel for old and modern influences, which always makes for an exciting learning experience.

• Morocco has gorgeous landscapes

  You don’t have to travel far to meet the landscape wonders of Morocco. From the sand dunes of the Sahara Desert, the Atlas mountains, or even the sunsets at the riad you’re staying at, you can be sure to find the perfect backdrop for your educational experience.

• Morocco has one of the best cuisines in the world

  No trip to Morocco is complete without tasting its world-famous cuisine. Enjoying authentic Moroccan fare at the Djemaa el-Fna square, joining food tours, and eating at souks or marketplaces is enough to make a complete cultural experience in itself. You may also take part in our Moroccan cooking class and bring home a bit of Moroccan culinary magic to your family and friends.
