Morocco, Best Emerging Sustainable Destination Award – Spanish tourism magazine

Viajar magazine, one of the prestigious Spanish magazines specialized in tourism and travel, has designated Morocco as the “best emerging sustainable destination for the year 2022-2023″.

The award was presented by the magazine’s director Josep Palau to Director General of the Moroccan National Tourist Office, Adel El Fakir, at an awarding ceremony held Tuesday in Madrid.

Adel El Fakir said he was honored to receive this award which “recognizes the efforts of the Kingdom of Morocco in the field of sustainable tourism.” “This recognition strengthens the influence of the Morocco brand through the attributes of sustainability and responsibility to which travelers around the world are very sensitive,” he said.

The event was an opportunity to consolidate the achievements of the Light Tour organized on June 21, 2022 in Madrid, and to confirm the performance of Morocco on the Spanish market, the first market in terms of recovery of the performance of the year 2019 (98% at the end of November 2022).

The awarding ceremony and networking event was attended by the magazine’s main prescribers and over 250 senior executives of Tour Operators and airlines from Iberia and Latin America, as well as several Moroccan tourism professionals.
