Dazzling, diverse, cultural, aesthetic, bustling. Those are just a few words to describe the country of Morocco. Whether you are exploring the bustling souks of Marrakesh, the historic gems of Fez, the coastal breezes of Essaouira, the warm sand of the desert, or anywhere in between, you are bound to find incredible architecture, culture, food, and experiences. This guide is my "ultimate guide", a pay for guide that includes all my secrets and tricks for locations around the country. If you are interested in something small, check out my page and my free guides (Marrakesh, Casablanca) or more limited paid guides (Tangier, the road to Erg Chigaga). However, if you are planning a week or longer in Morocco and want the inside scoop on various cities around the country, this is your guide. Over 240 recommendations included! Covered in this guide: Marrakesh, Fez, Casablanca, Tangier, Chefchaouen, Ouarzazate/Aït Benhaddou, Erg Chigaga/M'hamid, Erg Chebbi/Merzouga, and Agadir

Marrakesh is a magical city, brimming with vibrant colors and aromas. It embodies a fascinating blend of luxury and opulence, alongside a rough, chaotic charm, as the beautiful city grapples with pollution. Here, ancient crafts coexist with new techniques; you’ll meet people from all over the world who possess incredible stories, talents, and ambitions. Many tourists view Marrakesh merely as a stopover or a weekend destination on their longer Moroccan journey. Moroccans often refer to it as just a tourist town. But a couple of years ago I spent 10 days, right in the central Medina, exploring all that the old historic town has to offer. After my short time there and after poring over the Lonely Planet guide, see below what I learnt. Regardless of your itinerary, here are seven things you won't want to miss on your next trip to Marrakesh.
