Things to do in Meknes-Tafilalet

Activities, attractions and tours

It's quite a walk from the medina, and when you first walk inside it doesn't seem to impressive. But the longer you stay, the more impressive it does become. Wander through the large halls, admire the architecture and head out back to the long rows of stables...it's a cool place to spend an hour. #meknes #morocco #thingstodo

If you're heading to the Sahara Desert, this is an excellent base. You walk in and feel as if you've entered a desert fortress, with common areas and rooms to match. The dunes of the Sahara are literally out the back door! #saharadesert #morocco #kasbah #awesomehotel

Far in the east of Morocco, near the Algerian border is the village of Merzouga. When the giant sand dunes of the Sahara begin, they go on as far as the eye can see. #Africa #Morocco
