This course is designed for travelers with or without any background in Arabic who seek a deeper understanding of Morocco. The course consists of a 1.5 hour Moroccan Arabic class every morning, followed by a cultural activity each afternoon.
These include events such as a tour of Mederssas in the Fez Medina, meetings with Muslim scholars, attendance at a Sufi night, a visit to the Roman ruins at Volubilis, plus lessons in both Arabic calligraphy and Moroccan cuisine. During the second week, an afternoon will be spent volunteering with a local aid organization giving participants the opportunity to use their new Arabic skills and to help the community.
Over the weekend, we offer optional day or overnight trips to a variety of locations in Morocco.
