Your mind immediately thinks of one very famous film when you hear Casablanca, but this spot's actually been used as a set in the movies a few times. Spoiler! None of them share their name with the city itself.
- Casablanca'sĀ Hassan II Mosque featured as a location in Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation, with local narrow streets also used for a car chase.
- The city's medina served as a backdrop in the noughties thriller Body of Lies.Ā
- 2001's Spy Game used the city as a double for Beirut.
If the authentic riads and flavoursome tagines don't draw you in, maybe a chance to spot Tom, Leo, or Brad might do the trick!
But if coastal Casablanca isn't your style, perhaps the Pink City will have you in Instagrammable heaven.
The bustlingĀ medina of Marrakesh is likely to be your first stop, but when it's time to slow the pace a little,Ā El Fenn delivers the goods. With a rooftop pool, chic sun loungers, and the ultimate boho decor, it's a pretty great setting from day to night :-)
Jack's take
Morocco is always one of our faves, especially when you can take advantage of the mild spring weather.
