A Moroccan city is among the ten best tourist cities in the world, ahead of the most famous cities like Berlin (Germany) and Montreal (Canada).

The city of Marrakech remains the first tourist destination in terms of overnight stays, with 4 million overnight stays recorded in May 2024. This is revealed by the Tourism Observatory in a document on tourism statistics during the period.

In recent years, many Moroccan tourists have flocked to Salamanca (Castile and León) during the summer season. These are mainly Moroccans living in Europe who make a stop in the city located in northwestern Spain before returning to Morocco to spend their summer vacation.

The Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs has drawn up a list of recommendations for its nationals planning to visit Morocco.

Dakhla has managed to establish itself as an essential tourist destination in recent years. Despite the long distance that separates it from the major cities, many Moroccan and foreign tourists prefer this city located at the extreme south of Morocco to the northern regions, and for various reasons.

Marrakech continues to attract visitors from around the world, especially many celebrities and rising stars. They are flocking to the ochre city, one of the best tourist destinations in Africa and the Middle East.

The ongoing excavation and widening works in the city of Al Hoceima at the start of the summer season are disrupting traffic and causing outrage among residents and visitors, particularly Moroccans living abroad.

A Moroccan city tops the ranking of the 10 most sought-after destinations for the summer of 2024 from Lyon Saint-Exupéry airport.

Assisted by the National Financial Intelligence Authority (ANRF), a bank managed to unmask a money laundering scheme following a transfer from the tax haven of Nauru, located in the Pacific. The beneficiary is a Moroccan living abroad (MRE), owner of a travel agency in Morocco, who wanted to invest the huge sum received in a tourism project in the north of the kingdom.

National tourists and Moroccans living abroad who plan to spend their summer vacations in northern Morocco are ending up renouncing their plans due to the exaggerated rise in the prices of tourist services in the region.

Algeria’s hostile rhetoric towards Morocco has not changed anything. Algerian tourists, including celebrities from the arts and sports such as Cheb Khaled and Zinedine Zidane, continue to visit the kingdom. Artists like Faudel and Reda Taliani have even chosen Morocco as their second country.

Many foreign tourists arrive in Morocco every year. For those who are not yet unconditional fans of the destination and wish to visit the kingdom, it is good to have some useful information about the dirham, the Moroccan currency.
