Morocco Travel Guide: Marrakech, Atlas Mountains and Essaouira
On this trip you’ll be heading to Marrakech, the heart of Morocco, where spices linger in the market air, the sun sets on street performers, and the senses are treated to a whirlwind of sights and sounds. Discover life in the sprawling medina or get lost in the alleyways towards the souqs. Marvel at the tilework found in the royal Bahia Palace and Dar Si Said or learn how ancient traditions are woven into the fabric of Marrakech; there’s more than one way to fall in love with this cosmopolitan city.
Morocco is a North African country renowned for diversity, and this is one of the things that make it such a fascinating destination to visit. It’s a place where one will find many cultural influences, and the landscape offers visitors a chance to experience the ocean, Atlas Mountain peaks and the Sahara Desert all in one go. You might be travelling to one country, but in Morocco, there is a whole world to explore.
In Essaouira discover how coastal winds and different tribes can shape a port city. It’s a melting pot with Arab, Berber and European influences. While the sea attracts windsurfers, culture vultures flock to the medina’s alleyways for galleries and a spot of people watching. The vibrancy found in the country’s cities is matched by life in the Middle Atlas Mountains, where visitors can swap people watching and fortified walls for hiking, folk music and stargazing.
Observe nomadic shepherds, hike through limestone river canyons, enjoy impressive views and Berber hospitality and warmth as you make Midelt your basecamp for the Middle Atlas Mountains. As the sun goes down on the soaring peaks, the stars will light up the skies.

Morocco best of: Marrakesh, Ait ben haddou, Merzouga, Essaouira, Chefchaouen...
Morocco is a great and easy country to travel. I was already the second time in Morocco. The first time in 2014 I was only in Marrakesh and Merzouga. The trip to the desert was great, but we've one complete day in the bus to get there and one complete day back. Too much for a short trip :)
2017 I had more time to travel. First stop was Marrakesh. It's a nice city, but it's full of tourists and guides. I didn't like it very much and I left very fast.
Next stop was Imlil. I left most of my luggage in a guest house and climbed Mount Toubkal. You don't need a guide for this hike. Although everybody in the village recommends a guide ;-)
You can buy water all the hill up. On the peak you can rent a bed or room. In peak season better make a reservation. I slept in my tent. During the night it was really cold. Be prepared :D Most of the people wake up very early and go to the peak to watch the sunrise.
To get from Imlil to Aït-Ben-Haddou I had to take several different taxis and buses and hitchhike some parts. There's is a Kasbah in Aït-Ben-Haddou. Very nice place. Films like Gladiator or Game of Thrones were filmed here.
Tinghir, a city near Todgha gorges, you can reach easy by taxi. You have just to wait until it's full. Don't stay in Tinghir, better go up close to the gorges. I stayed in Dar Aicha. I can recommend it. On the way I met Andrea and we explored the gorge together.
After the gorge I took the night bus to Agadir. Agadir has some nice beaches, very good for tourists. But there's not much to see. I left after one day :D
I stayed for five days in Moknari. It's a berber village, where only one big family lives. There are thousands of surf camps along the coast. I decided for this one, because you will get a special experience in this village. It's very family. We played footbal together with Hichams cousins and did some other activities like sand boarding or visited paradise valley.
After all the activities I relaxed in Essaouira where I met Andrea again. This city was my favourite city. It's a small city, very relaxing. You can find many places just to sit down and chill. Or you can go to the beach or the harbour and watch the fisher men.
Unfortunatelly all tickets for the night buses were sold. So I had to drive the whole day in a bus and a train to get to Fes. Fes has very narrow streets and you don't have many possibilities to sit down somewhere. My suggestion is not to stay longer than one day there :D
My last station was Chefchaouen. It's a must go place. The city is also called The Blue Pearl. Take a look at the pictures and you will know why :D For sun set don't miss to go on the hill nearby. For a good place you should come early. It got very full :D
If you have further questions, don't hesitate to ask in the comments :)

Almost 8.30pm and still silly hot
Morocco, December ep. 4: to Essaouira with bus. โมร็อกโก, เอสซาวีรา
On our fifth day in Morocco we take a tour bus from Marrakesh to Essaouira by the coast further south. On the way we spot some amazing acrobatic goats climbing argan trees (they're nuts for argan nuts), as well as the daily life of people along the road. In Essaouira we check in at an old Riad house, and set out on a walk around town, including the photogenic fishing village, the square, we go deeper into town for a good meal of the local fish, and to the beach. We finally see the sun set from a restaurant with view to the Atlantic.
The video and pictures were captured with a Panasonic Lumix FZ1000 and a Samsung Sony a6000, and edited in Pinnacle Studio.

History and geography of Morocco
Its location at the intersection of Europe and Africa make Morocco a real crossroads bordered by the waters of the Mediterranean and open to the vast stretches of the Atlantic Ocean. This farthest land of the setting sun is rich in contrasts, a destination that beckons you to discover two millennia of history.
Here where influences converge, you will find vestiges of the great Mediterranean civilizations, such as the Roman ruins at Volubilis in the north and architectural works attesting to the old French presence in Rabat. Your curiosity will be piqued by the treasures of Muslim civilizations scattered throughout the rest of the country, including the Kasbah of the Udayas, the green expanses of the Menara gardens and many other examples of the myriad dynasties that succeeded one another.
The landscapes themselves are magnificent. Morocco features both sea and mountain and is home to the full range of Mediterranean climates, which surrender to the sands of the Sahara. The country serves up marvelous vistas that you will enjoy soaking in and discovering for yourself. With its mix of diverse, captivating panoramas and a rich kaleidoscope of culture, Morocco is an unbeatable destination.

Moroccan Riads Old Houses Transformed Into Guest houses
Riads are Moroccan Old Houses Transformed Into Guest houses :)
Classy Riad that is a calm oasis in the middle of the bizarre. Clients loved laying out and catching some sun, listening to the birds, and seeing the city and hills in the distance after breakfast each morning. The hosts are very friendly and help you navigate the city and what to enjoy and what to look out for. For travelers looking for a small place, full of character and a good value, this is the place.
It’s a lovely,quiet place right in the Medina. It’s close enough to let you relax in the middle of the day and escape from the chaos of Marrakesh street life. Really pretty roof terrace.
The staff is really great and breakfasts delicious.

Ultimate MARRAKESH Street Food Market Tour | Morocco 4K Travel Vlog
Ultimate MARRAKESH Street Food Market Tour | Morocco 4K Travel Vlog
There’s nowhere in Morocco like the Jemaa el-Fna square – no place that so effortlessly involves you and keeps you coming back for more. I have been to Marrakech 3 times now and I still come back and visit this place every time. Jemaa el-Fna is located in the medina quarter of #Marrakesh. The square is open daily and things typically get going early morning and continue until at least midnight.
By day, most of the square is just a big open space. In the morning, stall owners set up their stands selling fresh orange juice, spices, traditional medicines, mint leaves, and snails. Definitely try the fresh squeezed orange juices, its so sweet and refreshing. The flutes of snake charmers drift across the square, monkey trainers entertain the crowd, and the Berber musicians will create a show but of course only if you pay them. Be careful when taking photos! Always ask for permission to avoid argueing with snake charmers, monkey trainers, and the singers as they may demand a lot of money. But do support the locals by tipping them off with around 10 - 20 Dirhams per photo ( do negotiate beforehand).
The best time to visit this square is just before sunset. Once the sun sets, Jemaa el-Fna really comes alive. The crowd gets bigger and the Restaurants around the square start serving hungry customers delicious #streetfood as they stroll around this bustling square. Even if you don’t eat at them, you should at least wander down the makeshift lane of foodstalls on the Jemaa el Fna, which look great in the evening, lit by lanterns. Check out the hyperlapse footage I created! As well as couscous, tagine and pastilla, there are spicy merguez sausages, chicken and beef kebabs, harira soup, salads, fried fish, and calamari. For the more adventurous why not try a sheep's head complete with eyes. Check out stall number 10 and the crew!
Marrakech is full of fun loving people and they certainly know how to entertain. Especially if you're from India, Pakistan or Bangladesh, they will serenade you with their Bollywood music skills and call you Shah Rukh Khan, Amir Khan and Salman khan!
