Each region has its own unique array of activities for travelers to choose from, as well as specific weather patterns to be aware of.
When is the best time to visit?

Tangier in northern Morocco, for example, has a pleasant Mediterranean climate year-round, while travelers interested in experiencing the Sahara will want to stick to a trip in Spring or Fall to avoid extreme temperatures.
