When people throw around the word ‘exotic’, they’re probably referring to places like Morocco.

Places where riding a camel over dunes while the sun shimmers dramatically on the horizon is not an unusual thing. Where tagines come spiked with saffron and argan, carpet merchants haggle in the bazaars and Berber tribesmen herd goats on the slopes of the High Atlas Mountains. A Morocco tour is basically the answer to all your Lawrence of Arabia-type fantasies (right down to the swirling white djellabas): you’ll stay in historic riads, camp beneath the Saharan stars and enjoy some classic Maghreb hospitality (usually featuring plenty of couscous). Whether it’s the wind-battered port town of Essaouira or the crumbling Kasbahs and oases of the deep desert – ‘exotic’ doesn’t come close.

Clear your plate for flavour-filled Morocco, where Berber, Arabic and European influences mix to create an adventurous culinary cocktail. Follow the smell of food through mesmerizing markets and master recipes taught by those that know them best. Grab street food from a souq and share traditional meals in local homes. Take a handful of bustling medinas, mix with a dash of sea and season with fresh local produce, all drizzled with warm Moroccan hospitality for an adventure that will linger long on the tongue and in the memory.

I’m very happy to have gone on this adventure “Country Roads Scotland: Highlands and Islands” with guest host John Bishop.  It really was a pleasure. And I can’t thank you enough for keeping all of our ducks in a row as various arrangements—from flights to insurance—were put in place. You truly made all the difference in making travel easy in these strange times.
Really enjoyed our ‘ride’ through Scotland. (As a driver at home for myself and some non-driving friends, it was wonderful to be able to simply stare out the window at landscape—no roadside attractions, no giant billboards.)
Melissa did a great job, dealing with all the unexpected changes whether from QEII closures or serious traffic accident shutting out planned route. She was always good-natured, fun but low-key, provided just the right amount of information at the right time. It must have been so stressful, but she never showed that. Enjoyed the one time music was included as we drove onto Skye. A lovely touch!
Local guides, when used, were excellent too.
We had a congenial group of interesting people, all very good about mixing up where we sat at meals, etc.
Scottish people everywhere were always helpful and friendly—a real pleasure to travel in Scotland!
