The academic lectures will be given in English by both Moroccan and International distinguished professors who are specialized in their fields.

The lectures will be on tourism and travel journalism and be delivered at L’Institut Supérieur Internationale de Tourisme de Tanger.

As part of the social program the excursions are organized in accordance with the educational purpose of the whole program. Within the excursions program the participants will have a chance to go to very attractive cities nearby Tangier and on the Strait of Gibraltar such as; Tetouan, Assilah, Chefchaouen and also the famous Hercules Caves close to Tangier Medina.
