In this exciting episode, we're taking you deep into the heart of North Africa to explore the enchanting and unforgettable country of Morocco. Have you ever dreamed of off-roading through the Sahara, riding camels through towering dunes, or drinking cocktails on a sun-drenched rooftop in Marrakech? If Morocco has ever been on your travel wish list, or even if it hasn't, this episode might be just the thing to inspire your next adventure.
We're calling in The Travelers for this one: Brad Bermingham, Troy Mendenhall, my husband Craig, and me—four longtime friends. We have been exploring the world together now that our kids are grown and our calendars are a bit more flexible. From the Kentucky Bourbon Trail to the visually stunning Lake Louise and Banff , our adventures have taken us far and wide, but Morocco was unlike anywhere we've ever been.
In this episode, here are a few highlights!
- Is Morocco the right destination for you?
- How Cindy Stephan of International Culinary Tours curated a once-in-a-lifetime itinerary
- What it's like to ride a camel at sunset in the Sahara
- The wild sights of the Medina in Marrakech - motorcycles and donkey carts, oh my!
- What is a hammam, and should you try one?
- What's a shush and why you'll want one for your desert ride
- How stepping outside your comfort zone can completely transform your travel experience
This episode is full of laughter, stories, and tips for planning your own Moroccan getaway—or just enjoying it vicariously through our eyes (and sand-filled shoes).
