Stunning views of the snow-capped Toubkal massif, the highest point in North Africa.
Berber Valleys
Intricate terraced fields and traditional red-clay villages tucked into the mountain folds.
Berrechid Plains

Sahel Transition
Witness the shift from the sub-Saharan savannahs of Burkina Faso to the arid Sahelian landscape.
El Djouf
The 'Empty Quarter' of the Sahara, featuring vast, monochromatic sand seas and massive longitudinal dunes.
Atlantic Horizon
As the flight nears Casablanca, the distant glint of the Atlantic Ocean becomes visible during the descent.
Choose this side for morning flights to avoid the direct afternoon sun. The view is best during the first hour for vegetation changes and the final 20 minutes for the Moroccan coastline approach.
