Morocco

HELP!!

I have spent about a week now looking for accomodation in Marrakesh and have hit a brick wall. They all seem to be the same! My boyfriend and i are staying in September. We are looking for a riad near to the main square. We are looking for a quirky place (lots of cosy nooks and crannys) a roof terrace with nice views, romantic rooms, lots of colour and preferably a hamman and pool/plunge pool. There do seem to be lots of places that roughly fit the bill but really can't choose between…

My friend and I (two guys) are in Fes and looking to do 3-5 days of trekking in the Atlas mountains starting a few days from now. We'd like to go to less touristy and more hospitable spots, and we're not necessarily interested in just the biggest peaks.

I'd welcome any information on routes, and how to get to the trailhead from a large city. I'd also like to know about the availability of maps and trekking guidebooks in Morocco. Are these books and maps really necessary if you have a good…

Hi everyone,

I'm arriving in Marrakech on the 8th August and spending a few days there before heading along for a walk in the mountains - not got an itinerary yet but wondered if anyone was around during these dates and would like to go trekking too.

Cheers...

Hi,
My friend and I (both chicas) are off to Morocco for a few days in late August. We'll probably spend more time in Essoueira (sp?) but planning on at least a day or two in Marrakech. We're in our early 30s, from London, and looking for somewhere for independent travellers which is social and lively with cool decor. Preferably budget to mid range.

Any recommendations, please feel free to bring em on!
Cheers,

We are flying from gatwick to marrakech in september - are they Ok ? I have heard bad things about cancellations and now I am worried ?

Can someone recommend good beaches near to Essaouira or Agadir that would be good for swimming with kids - our daughter is 4 - we have been told Essaouira is a nice beach butu rough sea for swimming

Cheers - Jeff

Good Morning!

I'm going for 3 weeks now in August to Morroco, and we'd allready defined where we wanted to go, allthough we know it's not feasable in such a short time, so want I wanted to know, would be any suggestion on what we could throw out of th list... any comments are welcome!!

Marrakech-essauira-agadir-Akka&Tata (mais a sul)-Ouarzazate- Erg Chigaga (Mhamid)- Atlas- Merzouga-Erg Chebbi- Fez-casablanca

we'll arrive at Marrakech by plane, and departure from casablanca! we'll travel when…

So I have heard that it is almost impossible to get the Ferry from Tangier to Spain during the last week of August due to the school holidays and everyone returning to Spain. I was planning on travelling on the 22ndAugust which is the 2nd last week in August...does anyone know if the demand will be less? Or how can I book a ferry tiket- I've heard it cant be done online. help.!

I have a 15 hour layover on Royal Air Maroc in Casablanca. What's worth doing that's relatively safe and how tough is it to get back into the airport once I've exited? Also do I need a visa to leave for that short period?

Thanks in advance!

Can anyone suggest a hotel/pension in Tangiers madina... clean/hot showers
