Sand & Stars: A Trip to Marrakech & Morocco

Sarah Marshall, 27.05.2022

Souks and snake charmers, spices and scents – this mix of ancient and modern, of sensuous intensity, gives Morocco & Marrakech their enduring appeal.

Dressed in dazzling hues and swathed with exotic colours, no city strikes a pose quite like Marrakech. Oranges dangle from fruiting boughs like balls of blazing sunshine, mounds of raging-red cayenne pepper illuminate spice shop doorways and vibrant palms tickle bright blue skies.
