1Turkey, the essential gem of 2026
Istanbul & Cappadocia
Turkey ticks every box: an unbeatable value for money, millennia of culture and surreal landscapes. At sunrise, dozens of hot-air balloons rise above the fairy chimneys of Cappadocia, one of the most spectacular sights on the planet. In Istanbul, two continents meet between the Blue Mosque, the Bosphorus and the Grand Bazaar.
Why in 2026? New air routes and freshly opened boutique hotels make Cappadocia more accessible than ever, before prices align with European destinations.
2Cape Verde, absolute relaxation
Sal Island, the Brazil of Africa
Just a five-hour flight away, Cape Verde offers white sand beaches fringed by turquoise water with Caribbean vibes. Sal Island, the sunniest in the archipelago, combines absolute relaxation, kitesurfing and a distinctly Cape Verdean musical atmosphere. A destination soaring in popularity as direct flights multiply.
Why in 2026? Cape Verde is the best compromise between tropical beaches and budget: luxury hotels at still reasonable prices, far from the Caribbean crowds.
3Sicily, between volcanoes and the Dolce Vita
The complete tour of the island
Palermo, Taormina, Agrigento, the Greek temples and the ever-smoking Etna: Sicily packs 3,000 years of history into an island the size of a region. It is also Europe's best table at gentle prices, between cannoli, arancini and seafood. A loop tour that appeals to every traveller.
Why in 2026? Sicily remains more affordable than Tuscany or the Amalfi Coast, while offering an exceptional cultural density, ideal for a first trip to Italy.
4Egypt and the magic of the Nile
5-star cruise + Hurghada
Glide between Luxor, Edfu and Aswan aboard a 5-star Nile cruise, then finish with a few lazy days in Hurghada on the Red Sea coast. Between the Valley of the Kings, Karnak Temple and the sunset over the feluccas, Egypt is enjoying a real tourism revival.
Why in 2026? Egypt offers the best prestige-to-price ratio in the Middle East: a 5-star cruise, full board and excursions for a contained budget.
5Albania, the new Croatia
Tirana & the Albanian Riviera
Albania is THE country to see before everyone else: a riviera of turquoise coves reminiscent of Croatia twenty years ago, still very gentle prices and a vibrant capital in full transformation. Lovers of authentic discoveries will be delighted.
Why in 2026? Before the expected tourism explosion, Albania still offers almost private beaches and restaurants where the bill pleasantly surprises.
6Portugal, Europe's light
Lisbon & the Algarve
From Lisbon's yellow trams to the golden cliffs of the Algarve, Portugal seduces with its unique light and star-studded cuisine at gentle prices. Pastéis de nata, grilled sardines, surfers at dusk: the perfect destination for a stay combining culture and relaxation.
Why in 2026? Direct flights from Casablanca and renovated beachfront hotels make Portugal the easiest gateway to Southern Europe.
7Tunisia, best value for money
Hammamet all-inclusive
For families and controlled budgets, Tunisia remains unbeatable: 7 nights in an all-inclusive 4-star hotel with Royal Air Maroc flight and transfers included. Hammamet combines fine sand beaches, an authentic medina and golf, two hours' flight from Casablanca.
Why in 2026? It is the ideal destination for a first all-inclusive trip or a long weekend without breaking the bank, with an excellent hotel infrastructure.
8Spain, culture and the Costa Brava
Barcelona & the Costa Brava
Between Gaudí's dreamlike architecture and the wild coves of the Costa Brava, Barcelona is Europe's most complete city destination. Tapas, the Boqueria market, sunset over Barceloneta: a perfect stop for a stay that is both urban and coastal.
Why in 2026? Very well connected from Morocco, Spain suits couples and groups of friends alike in search of culture and good times.
9Puglia, authentic Italy
Classic Puglia
The heel of the Italian boot is an invitation to slow down: Alberobello's trulli, white villages, centuries-old olive trees and beaches of Mediterranean turquoise. Less crowded than Tuscany, this region charms with its authenticity and sunny gastronomy.
Why in 2026? A real Italy away from mass tourism, ideal for travellers seeking charm, at a price clearly gentler than the north of the country.
10Morocco, the gem right at home
Dakhla, the Atlas and the treasures of the Kingdom
No need to cross the planet for the exceptional: the Dakhla lagoon ranks among the most beautiful kitesurfing spots in the world, the Atlas tracks offer breathtaking hikes and our partner riads rival the finest hotels on earth. The best of Moroccan hospitality within reach.
Why in 2026? Domestic tourism is experiencing remarkable growth. Take advantage of our exclusive offers on partner hotels in Marrakech, Agadir and Dakhla.
