Morocco has earned a double spotlight in the latest ranking of top destinations in Africa and the Middle East by Travel + Leisure, one of the most respected names in global travel journalism. Two of the country’s most iconic cities—Marrakesh and Fez—secured spots in the magazine’s 2025 reader-voted top ten, standing proudly alongside regional giants like Cape Town, Dubai, and Istanbul. Marrakesh clinched fourth place, once again affirming its position as a favorite among international travelers. With its vibrant old city, a wide variety of accommodation options, and a lifestyle that effortlessly blends deep-rooted tradition with refined modernity, the city continues to captivate. This year, Marrakesh was also inducted into the magazine’s “Hall of Fame,” a special mention reserved for destinations that consistently earn top marks from readers year after year. Fez, often seen as quieter but no less essential, landed in sixth place. Known as Morocco’s spiritual heart, Fez leaves a strong impression with its dense historical legacy, thriving artisanal scene, and the timeless charm of its UNESCO-listed medina. While it may fly more under the radar than Marrakesh, its unique energy and authenticity clearly resonated with the magazine’s readers. This dual recognition cements Morocco’s rising influence on the regional tourism stage. It is the only African or Arab country to place two cities in the top ten—beating out travel heavyweights like Egypt, Jordan, and the United Arab Emirates. Voters praised the Moroccan cities for their cultural richness, welcoming atmosphere, and sense of authenticity. The rankings are based on a broad set of criteria including food, architecture, safety, accessibility, and value for money.
