Morocco Jewish Heritage Tours
Our Morocco Jewish heritage tours follow more than two thousand years of Jewish life in Morocco: the historic mellahs (Jewish quarters), restored synagogues, cemeteries and pilgrimage sites. The Moroccan constitution recognises the Hebrew heritage as part of the national identity, and many sites have been carefully restored.
