If ever you feel like the city is becoming too toxic for you, don’t feel like you don’t have any other choice. You can always look south and know that somewhere on the path there is a place that is waiting for you to visit. The South has the Sahara desert which is famous for its safe and quiet atmosphere.

A trip to Morroco could be perfect to rest your mind for a few days from the bustling city. So what are you waiting for? Join us now as we explore South Africa for five days and four nights. During the trip, you will experience how it is to live in Marrakech and Merzouga. Below, we have written an itinerary for the journey.
