Morocco 2022 – a photo diary

In November 2022, we took a group of intrepid travellers on our “Trilobite’s Sahara Kingdom” geological tour of Morocco. Our 10-day trip across the Atlas mountains to the Sahara Desert was not only a trilobite extravaganza but also took in a dinosaur discovery site, mineral mines and various historic sites.

We returned to Germany in October 2022 for our “Volcanoes and Famous Fossil Sites” tour. The sites didn’t fail to impress!

Visits to Ice Age caves and volcano sites rounded off a fantastic trip! We look forward to returning next year!

It is world-famous for its trilobite and dinosaur fauna.
