The vibrancy of the city will awaken your senses, and with its warming sun (around 19C), and honeycomb alleyways, it’s easy to see why this is one of Morocco’s most-visited places, close to the Atlas mountains and the Sahara desert.  Get lost in the vast 12th-century medina’s winding pathways aligned with beautiful riads. Take in the colourful spices at the souks, and buy silks and bright fabrics. Don’t miss the Koutoubia, the city’s largest mosque, the Unesco-listed Agdal Gardens, and the magnificent architecture of El Bahia Palace. At night, marvel at acrobats, snake charmers and musicians in Djemaa el-Fna square, and enjoy drinks and traditional food in one of the many bars and restaurants.  Charismatic Cancun    World-renowned for its pristine beaches, incredible weather (around 30C in winter) and Vegas-style entertainment, Cancun is bursting with Mexican charm. The Insta-perfect Riviera Maya beaches complete with swaying palms are a huge draw – especially at Tulum where you can relax on the sand with a cocktail. Then, wander to explore ancient Mayan ruins.  Swim in underground rivers in the popular Xcaret nature park near Playa del Carmen, then stroll the ruins in Chichen Itza and take in El Castillo, a 365-stepped stone pyramid, before snorkelling in a nearby sinkhole. At night, enjoy incredible Mexican dishes either at a street market or a high-end restaurant. If you want to party, there are plenty of bars and clubs open until very late.  Glorious Gran Canaria    Dose up on winter sunshine in Gran Canaria’s buzzing capital Las Palmas, boasting historic buildings, charming streets, spring-like temperatures (around 20C) and golden sands.  Explore the old town of Vegueta, to see the twin-towered Santa Ana cathedral that dates back to 1500, stroll past monuments and wander around the museum of Christopher Columbus (who apparently stayed on the island in 1492). Relax on the nearly two-mile-long golden sands of Playa de las Canteras, where you can enjoy walking, watersports and many bars and restaurants serving modern and traditional dishes. Venture furt
