As a travel agent I have a lot of experience in selling my clients their dream vaccation. Balearic Islands, Canary Islands, Greece and Turkey were the top selling destinations. There is a short flight (2-4h), it's cheap, warm, nice beaches and it's safe. There is another country where all these parameters are identical: Morocco!
There are non-stop flights from Zurich with Edelweiss and even Easy Jet has flights to Marrakesch. The temperatures and wheater is just perfect even in november. Best time to travel there is from april to october but beware of the hot summer especially in the desert. The flight time is about 3.5h non-stop.
Hotels are quite cheap. I'm not talking about the luxury hotels. In my opinion you shouldn't stay in any of these hotels. Well, they are very nice and the service is just perfect but it's not Morocco. In big cities such as Marrakesch, Rabat, Fes, Meknes and Casablanca there are tousands of riads. That's a traditional moroccan house with a interior garden. We have stayed in very beautiful riads. There are some which are very nice decorated. Very often they are runned by the owner himself. Breakfast is included. You can book these riads online.
Public transportation in Morocco is very good. They have ONCF the biggest public transportation company. They run trains and buses all over the country. Normally they are quite on time. It's very cheap and the buses and trains are quite new.
Morocco is a very diverse country. You can swim and surf in the south where the beautiful beaches are. Hiking and biking starts to get very popular for tourists and I agree with that. It's perfect to explore the country on a slow way. The roads are good but you should be able to read the sings. Lukily they are in arab and french. So if you don't feel like going with one of these large tourist busses you can easily travel in a rental car. Please don't forgett to take enough water with you.
There is the desert - the big sahara! Go for a camel ride and stay one night in a tent with the Berbers. These friendly people are living in the desert since generations.
What else can I tell you about this country? Well, they have realy good food!
