Morocco is a feast for the senses.  This African country is only 9 miles from the coast of Spain at its closest point.  You can feel the Spanish and French influences all over this beautiful land.  Famous for its medieval, mazelike medina’s and souks, where you can find ceramics, leather, jewelry, metal works and much more. Some of the most intact Roman ruins can be found in Morocco.  From vast deserts with sweeping sand dunes to vibrant cities to gorgeous hiking through the Atlas Mountains, this country has much to offer clients with all interests.

Santa Fe has become a mecca for artists and foodies.  The historical center is well known for its Pueblo style architecture and winding streets.  It was founded in 1610 as a Spanish colony, and therefore has a traditional Plaza at its center.  Surrounded by several national monuments and only an hour away from Albuquerque, Santa Fe has so much to offer.

Puglia is flanked by two crystal blue seas – the Adriatic and the Ionian – and its southern exposure offers miles of stunning beaches, but this is not your average beach vacation.
