Follow us on our Grand Moroccan Roadtrip!
From sweeping sand dunes to desolate highways of emptiness, bustling cities, and snow-covered peaks, we explored Morocco from north to south and east to west. Driving more than 10,000 km in eight weeks, our roadtrip included many unforgettable adventures. Watch as we explore remote landscapes, climb high peaks, battle breath-taking dust-topias (double pun, yeah!), and navigate the hectic bustle of Morocco’s major cities.

Real Talk:
Despite our attempt at keeping our Morocco Travel Documentary as authentic as possible, you are still watching a highlight reel. When editing, we naturally tend to choose the most exciting videos. What you don’t see are the hours spent driving through less spectacular landscapes or some of the unpleasant challenges we faced.
Did we like everything about Morocco?
Far from it. As mentioned in the video, the huge amount of trash definitely dampened our experience. Additionally, we were surprised by the sheer number of begging children. During our trip, we counted a minimum of 500 children asking us for money or sweets. While Morocco undoubtedly has to combat poverty, this behavior often seemed less dictated by need and more by opportunity. Stopping and giving is an individual choice, of course, but when we didn’t we were regularly flipped off, kicked after, or hurled insults at.
In general, though, we perceived most Moroccans as extremely friendly and helpful. The best example is the three local men who selflessly helped us to change our ruptured tire. We cannot thank them enough.
Full Disclosure:
This trip was entirely self-funded. However, we did enjoy a two-night complimentary stay at La Sultana Oualidia and a two-night complimentary stay at La Sultana Marrakech.

WESTERN SAHARA – Because some commentators have surprisingly frail egos: I am using the term Western Sahara in a geographical sense. At no point do I claim that Western Sahara is a country or independent of Morocco. Referring to it as 'Morrocan Sahara', as many commentators do, is absolutely idiotic as it entirely disregards the desert areas in the east of the country. Morocco controls 80% of the Western Sahara region, which clearly is a disputed area judging by the constant military presence and thorough questioning. Lastly, Morocco is doing excellent development work by building harbours and roads in the area. Be proud of what your country is achieving in this desolate strip of desert and stop whining about the geographical terminology. Or maybe don't – it's great for the algorithm ❤
Beautiful filming and editing. Did you do all by yourself? Which app did you use?
Morocco country of peace, beauty and generosity
Good
The Moroccan kingdom is one country from Tangier to Gouira in Moroccan Sahara 🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦
God has perfected everything He created. And He originated the creation of humankind from clay.Then He made his descendants from an extract of a humble fluid .genie (jinn) created aforetime from the smokeless flame of fire, angels from light he created this universe and the existance which is more than this material univers thats why the Quran talk about the faith and beliving And about all these matters.
God created 124000 messengers for Good tidings and warnings peoples
from Adam until the last one which is muhammed peace be open him
The Aramaic ( language of jesus and bible ) word for God is Alaha or Elaha
The Hebrew ( language of moses and torah ) Word for God is Elohim
the arabic ( language of Muhammed and Quran) word for god is Allah
God created Adam, the father of humanity, and breathed into him of His spirit. He created Jesus, son of Mary, peace be upon them both, without a father and breathed into him of His spirit. He is the Creator of souls/spirits and the angels entrusted with all these matters (For example, the Holy Spirit is the angel Gabriel, peace be upon him, who is entrusted with revelation and supporting the prophets). God is the Creator of miracles, and there is no power or strength except with Him.
I bear witness that there is no god but Allah alone, without partner or son, and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, and that Jesus is His servant and messenger, and His word which He bestowed upon Mary, and a spirit from Him,and that Moses is the one who spoke to God and His messenger, and Paradise is true, and Hell is true.
some quran verses :
In the name of Allah(god), the Compassionate, the Merciful.
Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds.
The Compassionate, the Merciful.
Master of the Day of Judgment.
You alone we worship; and upon You, we call for help.
Guide us along the straight path.
The path of those You have blessed, not of those with anger on them, nor of the misguided.(Amen)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful.
Say, “He is Allah, [who is] One,
Allah, the Eternal Refuge.
He neither begets nor is born,
Nor is there to Him any equivalent.
Quran :
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful.
And (remember) when Allah will say (on the Day of Resurrection): "O 'Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary)! Did you say unto men: 'Worship me and my mother as two gods besides Allah?' " He will say: "Glory be to You! It was not for me to say what I had no right (to say). Had I said such a thing, You would surely have known it. You know what is in my inner-self though I do not know what is in Yours, truly, You, only You, are the All-Knower of all that is hidden and unseen.
Never did I say to them aught except what You (Allah) did command me to say: 'Worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord.' And I was a witness over them while I dwelt amongst them, but when You took me up, You were the Watcher over them, and You are a Witness to all things.
"If You punish them, they are Your slaves, and if You forgive them, verily You, only You are the All-Mighty, the All-Wise."
Allah will say: "This is a Day on which the truthful will profit from their truth: theirs are Gardens under which rivers flow (in Paradise) – they shall abide therein forever. Allah is pleased with them and they with Him. That is the great success (Paradise).
To Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and all that is therein, and He is Able to do all things.
Quran :
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful.
Those who do not believe in the Hereafter name the angels with female names.They have no knowledge of it. They follow nothing but assumptions, and assumptions are no substitute for the truth.
