Here's looking at you, kid. The famous Casablanca movie quote that you've heard a hundred times before. Now you can live that experience by taking Arabic courses in Morocco where Casablanca is located. The colorful country in the northwestern corner of Africa is a myriad blend of enchanting cities, dramatic scenery and nomadic culture. In Marrakesh, stay at an intimate riad and wander the local souqs, or markets, particularly the Jamaa el-Fnaa, the largest in Africa. Important sites to see are the El Badi Palace, the Saadian Tombs and the Koutoubia Mosque. Fez, Meknes, Asilah and Essaouira are other amazing cities calling for exploration. With imperial city gates, white-washed buildings, mazes of medieval streets, and impressive medinas, mosques, and minarets, each city offers sites and sounds for everyone. As if that was not enough, you can devour tender beef and couscous while being mesmerized by local Chleuh dancers. However, the mountains and deserts are not to be forgotten and any devoted hiker will attest to the magic of the Atlas Mountains. Climb North Africa's highest peak, Jebel Toubkal, for a panoramic view that is sure to please and pass by quaint adobe villages along the way. For a true Moroccan experience, spend some time traveling with the nomadic Berbers. Trek by camel over Sahara sand dunes, sleep in a tent under the stars, and tuck into traditional fare. Wherever you are in Morrocco, your studies from Arabic school in Morocco will come in handy, and when you eventually go to Casablanca, prepare to be a movie star.
