Dear Temple Alumni & Friends,

Join alumni and friends on a 14-day exploration of Morocco and discover this land of age-old culture and natural beauty. An experienced local tour director will lead this program highlighting Morocco’s unique history and culture as you travel from the imperial cities of Rabat, Fez, and Marrakech to the imposing High Atlas and the vast Sahara. In addition, we are delighted that Dr. Jane DeRose Evans, Professor of Art History at Temple University, will join us as the Faculty Host on this tour.

Visit five UNESCO World Heritage sites, including Meknes, Morocco’s youngest imperial city; Volubilis, with its ancient Roman ruins; and Fez, Morocco’s oldest imperial city, prized for its cultural, religious and educational institutions. Follow a fabled ancient caravan route in the snow-topped High Atlas Mountains, see spectacular Todra Gorge, and travel to Ait ben-Haddou, another UNESCO World Heritage site. Along the way, experience lush desert oases, precipitous mountain canyons, dozens of kasbahs and souks (markets), and villages where life proceeds much as it has for centuries. Enjoy a unique sunset excursion of the towering sand dunes at the edge of the Sahara on a four-wheel drive followed by a camelback ride. Then spend three nights in alluring Marrakech before your adventure concludes in storied Casablanca.

With space for a total of only 24 guests on this Temple Travels exclusive departure, we expect this tour to fill quickly. Don’t be disappointed — book today to secure your space on this thrilling small group tour of Morocco!

Sincerely,

Amy Goerwitz Director of Temple TravelsQuestions?
