Mahima Tripathi and Fahd Karrakchou from the Morocco Tourism Board join Goway Trade Training Manager and Professor Goway, Don Forster, on the GowayPro Travel Tales Podcast to discuss the three different sides of Morocco: the “expected” Morocco for first-time travellers, the “deeper” side of Morocco for experienced Globetrotters, and the “real” Morocco, found from a local’s point of view.
Morocco is a destination where ancient traditions, vibrant, diverse cultures, and breathtaking landscapes come together to create an unforgettable travel experience, from the bustling souks of Marrakech to the golden dunes of the Sahara Desert.

The anticipation of travelling to a new destination is almost palpable. You've done your research, likely spoken to someone who has been there before, and begun daydreaming of your adventure. However, you're also aware of how your expectations may differ from reality.
