location & map

The Moroccans call their country Maghrib which, in Arabic, means “sunset” or “west”, acknowledging this North African kingdom’s place as the westernmost Arabic country. Bordered on the north by the Mediterranean Sea (Spain is just an hour’s ferry ride away) and on the west by the Atlantic Ocean, Morocco has numerous beaches and a long, dramatic coastline. With four mountain ranges, great oases and the dunes of the Sahara, Morocco is a land of remarkable geographic diversity.

Most international flights to Morocco from Europe and North America fly daily into Casablanca, where they connect with frequent daily internal flights to Marrakech. British Airways has a daily direct service from London and Manchester to Marrakech, and Royal Air Maroc has daily flights between London and Marrakech. Ryanair offers direct flights from London to Marrakech four times a week. There are also daily direct flights between Paris and Marrakech with Air France and Royal Air Maroc.

Amanjena provides complimentary transfers from Marrakech airport (a ¼ hour journey) and Casablanca airport, which is approximately 2½ hours away.
