Number of Scandinavian Tourists Visiting Morocco Up 10% in 2016

The number of Scandinavian tourists who visited Morocco in 2016 increased by 10 percent year on year, according to the delegation of the Moroccan Tourism Office (ONMT) in charge of Scandinavian and Baltic states.

Approximately 98,000 tourists from the Scandinavian region visited the Kingdom during the past year, said ONMT regional director Aziz Mnii in an interview with MAP.

The number of tourists from Denmark increased by 27 percent, and that from Sweden and Norway rose by 6 percent, Mnii said, recalling that nearly 87,000 Scandinavian nationals stayed in Morocco in 2015. This trend should continue in the year under way to reach more than 100,000 tourists, while they were only 50,000 to visit the Kingdom in 2009, he said.
