The Western Kingdom!
MYSTIQUE OF MOROCCO
With leadership by Dr. Patrick Hatcher!

April 24-May 5, 2010 - Sold out! Plan now to go in 2011!

We invite you to join us as we explore the mystique of the Kingdom of Morocco! Spectacular landscapes and fascinating cultural experiences await you! We will start our journey in Rabat, the capital of Morocco, with a visit to the Oudais Kasbah and the elaborately decorated mausoleum of King Mohammed V. We will then discover cultural and archaeological sites from the Imperial city of Meknes to Volubilis, the best preserved Roman town in North Africa; the fascinating town of Sefrou; to Medina’s that have existed for several centuries. On the way to the Sahara Desert, we will drive through the Middle Atlas with stops for spectacular photos. The majestic canyon of the Ziz Gorge rivals the Grand Canyon and we will also see the Todra and Dades Gorges.

In the desert, we will experience the berber way of life as it has existed for centuries from making bread to preparing and drinking mint tea. Ksour of Ait Ben Haddou, a World Heritage Site, and Quarazate, the French Protectorate Site, will be of special interest.

Our final destination is the fabled and exotic Marrakech. We hope you will be able to join us!
