Cold at night (in January) Hot n humid in summer!
In a nutshell
One of the great African cities
128 Reviews Also surrounding the square are numerous stalls selling orange juice and dried fruits ... these guys are less aggressive since they work by themselves and can't leave the stalls to chase you ..... many will let you try 1 piece of dried fruit, but of course if you try more than 1 your buying it...
45 Reviews My wife had been there twenty years ago and she was so surprised at how even more beautiful it now appearded on a May day. Yes, the plants have matured. Yes, the fountains were all working. Yes, everything was clean and well-tended. Cobalt blue somehow goes well with the natural greens. There is...
43 Reviews Most people think of Marrakech as a shoppers delight. I don't. I had saved all my money to buy my gifts here at the markets or Souks and was a bit dissapointed. It's actually better to shop at Essaouria on the coast if you can plan a day trip out there. Yes, I bartered and thought I got some good...
4 Reviews and 507 Opinions This riad is consider the oldest- may be the fiart- and best riad in Marrakech. Hoever. it is a bet...
7 Reviews and 263 Opinions My husband and I went with good friends to stay at Riyad Al Moussika. I had read reviews and was...
106 Reviews We did not eat here as we decided to save a few bucks and enjoy a nice night in Casablanca but if we went back this is a place we would stop in. It has that old world classy feel to it. In fact after a night in Rick's Cafe in Casa I think this place could go toe to toe with it. If you do not want to...
35 Reviews After dinner on our second night we needed some sweets and found this place which has a great cafe in back where families can sit down and enjoy themselves if you decide to eat here as we did. Chocolate cake was great.
39 Reviews Well I guess with the Government iniative to push tourism and the drive to increase the number of tourists up into the multi millions mark comes with the increase in commercialism (not just the freeing up of airspace and thus the end of the Government monopoly on airlines and prices) - so the Hop on...

48 Reviews My wife and our kids really enjoyed our desert trek which we booked through Taxi In Marrakesh. It was a big step for us to book through a non european agency, but we took the leap and didnt regret it for a second. info@taxi-amarrakech.com
9 Reviews The Jalaba or Jellabas is a traditional dress of Morocco. It is more like an robe or overcoat with a hood. Both men and women wear the Jalaba but can be different colours and materials. The Jabador is a two piece outfit.
27 Reviews Marrakesh is one big open air market and must be one of the best plces in the world if you want to go bargain hunting. You can buy all sorts of things like lamps, hats, water pipes, carpets, spices. You name it and they most likely got it somewhere. Everything from water pipes to exotic spices....
6 Reviews The traditional Moroccan dress for both men and women is this long hooded garment known as a djellaba. It seems very practical – the body is protected from weather and from the dirt of the street, and the hood can be pulled up to give warmth at the start and end of the day, or shade from the...
9 Reviews When in Marrakesh expect to have to haggle for everything! Some general tips: - Have a maximum price in mind for the item and offer slightly below it. - If they offer you a ridiculously high price (which they often do), offer a ridiculously low price right back. - They will start lowering their...
20 Reviews I live in Marrakech most of the year as I am retired and here are some key points to remember when coming to Marrakech. 1. People will be over friendly. Don't get sucked into this...It's all about money and what they think they can get from you. 2. Taxi's will always rip you off so insist on the...
Water Sellers / Beggars / Intrusive People
19 Reviews André's tips to Marrakesh: DON’T SHOW NERVOUSNESS- even if your knees are shaking. BE EASY GOING- Moroccans are outgoing people, and most of them well intentioned. Keep that in mind and you’ll see that many times even after declining whatever they’re offering, you’ll be greeted with a ”welcome to...
6 Reviews And empty suitcase. There are so many beautiful things to bring back with you. Make sure you have the room to do it. Seriously though: I use a wheeled backpack when i travel. I find the backpack helps me get onto trains and buses with ease and the wheels just make it easy when in hotels or airports...
7 Reviews Unlike some tips I'd read before-hand, you don't need to bring toilet paper, they have it here (although in small rolls), it's fine and the the toilets in the hotels are NOT holes in the ground, they are regular, western style toilets. A compass was the most helpful thing I brought to Marrakech,...
Towns /Cities / Sights around Marrakesh
29 Reviews Its a good proper road to get there and Ive been up it myself - in a car! Actually its extremely popular with Marrakechis who drive out during the weekends making the roads often bumper to bumper. Its also a very popular day trip out of Marrakech for many tourists with a scenic journey pretty much...
21 Reviews The roads that head out towards Asni, Imlil, Ouirgane, Taroudant etc have great views during the winter months of the snowtopped Atlas mountains - much like the views from the roofs around Marrakech looking in that direction, and certain vantage points in the Menara gardens that look in that...
4 Reviews We stayed and did some golfing in the Palmaraie Golf Club, it was quite a good experience with nice views of the green and the surrounding regions. We also pre-booked some tours before we left France, we did both quad biking and horse riding in the palm grove of Marrakech - we highly recommend this...
28 Reviews There are many public toilets in Morocco. They can usually be found near mosques. Most are the squat design but in service stations they have sit down toilets. It is courteous to tip the attendant who keeps the place clean, you should pay for the paper they offer. In Djemaa El Fna there is a public...
7 Reviews The city of Marrakech has many sights and sounds and flavours to it. However the best places to escape all the noise is to head out of the centre about 20 mins outside into the palmaraie or the palm grove of marrakech. The best way to embrace and to enjoy the best views and the scenic location is on...

Winter and Summer in Marrakesh
Wow! what can I say about this fascinating city that will do it justice? Marrakesh had long been on my top 10 places to see list. So looking for somewhere special to celebrate my Birthday, I decided...
Marrakech - Incredible but exhausting!
Marrakech is a crazy city. Noisy, dusty, busy and smelly, it is an exhausting place to visit! I loved it. Well, most of it. I spent 4 nights there with my sister Alison. She suggested that we stay......
Marrakesh is known as the "Red City" Marrakesh is the capital of the south of Morocco. The ambiance here is very different than other Imperial cities like Fez, Rabat or Meknes. This city is something...
We came to Marrakesh with high expectations. The city had been on our “wish-list” for some years, and as this was the first holiday of any length that we had been able to take together for over a...
