According to the 2015 Trip Advisor’s “Traveler’s Choice Destination Awards”, which gives destinations awards based on ratings from actual travellers, Morocco holidays are the most popular for holidaymakers the world over this year.

People who voted for Marrakech praised its shopping, its natural beauty, and the joys of sitting for hours in the hammams, as the traditional spa baths of the region are called.

The UK’s Top Contributor of photos to TripAdvisor in 2014, Steve Jackson, said, “Marrakech is one of those cities that should be on everyone’s bucket list. It’s a fantastic city to explore, rich in history and culture, and between the sea of street activity, bright colours and striking sunsets, it is a truly intoxicating experience.”

Other top destinations included Siem Reap, Cambodia at number 2, Istanbul in Turkey at number 3, while Hanoi in Vietnam, Prague in the Czech Republic, and London in the United Kingdom came in at numbers 4, 5 and 6 respectively. Rome filled slot number 7, Buenos Aires in Argentina filled slot number 8, Paris was number 9, and Cape Town Central in South Africa completed the list of the 10 most popular destinations in the world.

The Traveler’s Choice Awards have been running for thirteen years, and as well as a decision on the favourite destination of travellers worldwide, it also picks out the best beaches, hotels, restaurants, attractions, destinations on the rise, all-inclusive resorts (which you know we love), and islands, all based on holidaymaker’s reviews.
