Moroccans are extremely family-oriented and you'll get lots of positive attention when you travel there with children. Morocco has excellent beaches, Essaouira for example is a wonderful destination. You can also explore the desert and ride camels as well as spend a few nights in a Kasbah (fort) in the cooler Atlas mountains. Moroccan food isn't too spicy either so you can sample everything from kebabs to couscous. Pastries, fresh fruit and nuts are on sale everywhere for a quick and easy snack. Avoid traveling in mid-summer because it get's very hot, or get a Riad with a swimming pool so you can cool down at midday.
Morocco is relatively easy to travel around independently. Even small hotels can be booked online and car rental is simple. If you'd rather go on a tour see the recommendations below :
