Why you should go in the Morocco imperial cities Tour by First-class Train ? Travel Responsibly: Less Carbon Footprint travel by Train a different way to travel ­ This way of travelling can be summed up in two words: immersing yourself. Rather than dashing from one tourist attraction to another with a flock of other tourists, slow travel, this kind of tourism is more sustainable. Quality is more important than quantity when it comes to immersing yourself in the local way of life of the region you are visiting. To make the most of slow travel, take the train. This comfortable mode of transport allows you to relax during the journey and admire the countryside as it passes by. In addition, the environmental impact of a train in comparison with other modes of transport (planes, car, minivan for example) is relatively low, which fits in perfectly with the aim of 'travelling better'accampagned by our tour leader ­ Go back in the medieval time.

Marrakech
After breakfast, Marrakesh guided visit, Meet the unexpected Perhaps the logical question to ask at this point is: Why go? The answer is that when a man has been there and undergone the baptism of solitude he can’t help himself. Once he has been under the spell of the vast luminous, silent country, no other place is quite strong enough for him, no other surroundings can provide the supremely satisfying sensation of existing in the midst of something that is absolute. He will go back, whatever the cost in time or money, for the absolute has no price.
