Pick by what you want
🇲🇾 Choose Malaysia if
you want Thailand's food and beaches with a fraction of the crowds, and everything running slightly more smoothly.
🇲🇦 Choose Morocco if
you want somewhere that feels genuinely far away on a three hour flight from Europe, with mountains, desert and old cities in one trip.
