A Saudi prince chooses southern Morocco for his vacation

Prince Abdelmohsen ben Bandar landed at Hassan I Airport for a strictly private visit. Far from official meetings, he came to enjoy the calm and natural landscapes of the region. This is not an isolated case: for a few years now, many princes and businessmen from the Gulf have chosen southern Morocco for their vacations.

Several reasons explain this choice. First, these visitors feel at ease in this desert environment that is very similar to their country of origin. They also find customs and traditions close to their own, which facilitates their stay.

The other great asset of the region is hunting. The vast spaces of the Sahara are perfect for this very popular leisure activity among Saudis. Finally, the recent development of Laâyoune plays a key role: thanks to the many construction projects launched in recent years, the city now has modern hotels and infrastructure capable of welcoming these demanding tourists.
