Hassan II Mosque

This stately mosque, a fine example of pure Moroccan architecture, is the only one in the city that non-Muslims may visit.

Reviewed By jemapelleiris - Hong Kong, China

Although the ticket is a bit expensive and you must follow the visit schedule tightly, it is worth visiting as the indoor design is beautiful and attractive and the guided tour provides useful information. If you don't want to pay the entrance fee, you can also take nice pictures in the square, which is also impressive.

Medina of Fez

The city’s ancient quarter is an intricate maze of streets lined with open markets, shops and mosques.

Reviewed By 254peterc254 - Trinidad, United States

Fabulous...! From the world-famous (and moderately odorous) leather tannery to exotic (to us) food stalls to the best mint tea we had - the Fez Medina is truly a remarkable experience. Think in terms of thousands (literally) of small, winding, unnamed, and often vigorous alleyways, walkways and occasional streets, that grew largely organically over hundreds of years. To get the most out of this experience, we would recommend hiring a guide. Our tour included sampling many of the very interesting (and tasty) foods - including preserved beef, some just-cooked wonderful stretchy bread, figs, other sweets, pickles - and a honey tasting of a dozen different honeys. Not far from tannery is a small mint tea shop, which made (without question!) the best and most interesting mint tea we had in Morocco - the shop consists of about 4 stools, a small bench, a wonderful, large copper pot, a small burner - and the fabulous and personable proprietor. Delightful! The tannery is quite a visual (and, um, fragrant) experience. Truly one of the highlights of a Moroccan experience!

Medina of Essaouira

Dar Zahira is a beautifully restored and charming riad for up to 6 persons. You'll get a private & cosy place for you and your travel companions.

Reviewed By Robinsons33 - Hemel Hempstead, United Kingdom

Always enjoyable to visit the medina Less hassle than in Marrakesh Corona has hit the medina and significant places have ceased trading or closed for reductions of the transmission. Which in turn has increased the poverty a bit but not threatening just quite sad to have been before the pandemic and thoroughly enjoyed every area. There is hope in the town and it’s a beautiful place with friendly people Always happy to return

Jardin Majorelle

Nicely designed and maintained gardens, similar to those of Generalife in Granada, Spain. It’s a good place to recoup from the intensity of the market atmosphere.

A beautiful place with plants trees and birds!! an oasis that you must visit and admire the amazing blue of Marrakech.Very clean, with excellent bamboo and cactus.

Anti-Atlas Mountains

Reviewed By edc338 - Arlington, United States

Our tour made a long day's drive from Erfoud to Aït Benhaddou. Having traveled from Ouarzazate to Erfoud via N10 in the valley between the High Atlas and Anti-Atlas mountains, we made the return trip via N12, R108 and N9 through and over the Anti-Atlas Mountains. Being significantly older than the High Atlas, these mountains are lower. However The trip is beautiful and barren. In many areas the scenery can be described as Lunar. N12 runs northeast-southwest through a plateau. At Tazzarine we turned west onto N108 which was a shorter route to N9 which heads northwest over the Tizi-n-Tinififft pass back to Ouarzazate. The trip up the pass was followed several dry, picturesque canyons. The pass itself provided a look along an impressive canyon. It also had a couple of stone huts which were "staffed" by the ever present souvenir hawkers. There are no facilities at the top of this pass.

Crocoparc

A huge crocodile head marks the main entrance of the parc. An innovative concept and a unique project in Agadir, in the south of morocco. The farm within the Atlantic area contains more than 300 of Nil crocodiles (Crocodylus niloticus). The architecture and the design of the parc give the feeling to be in a forest,offering you the sight of a lot of unique trees and plants varieties.

We booked through the reception desk at the hotel, pick you up at 10am 20 euros per person. Bang on time, the minibus picked us up, a couple of further pickups and off for a 25 min ride to Crocoparc. Great entrance, we met our guide, just the 10 of us that were on the bus, very knowledgable guide about all aspects of the parc and in at least 3 languages. The tour went at a comfortable pace, would suit a wheelchair round the crocodile lakes, ponds with plants and frogs, demonstration of how papyrus was made, all fully explained. Past iguanas, cactus gardens, large tortoises, across a rope bridge if able, tiny monkeys, free henna tattoo, then it was feeding time, wow! Then the baby crocodiles, baby tortoises, snakes(python and anaconda) finally a cup of Moroccan tea and a few minutes to browse in the shop before getting back on the minibus to return to the hotel. All in all it took just over 3 hours door to door. Excellent value for money would recommend for all age groups.

Had a great day trip to Tangier from Spain, really enjoyed being shown around by the local guides who looked after us very well. It was so interesting to see the Medina & also views from the coach of parks & Picnic areas. Lunch was very enjoyable in a very pleasant restaurant. Worth a trip if you are looking for a different experience.

Souk El Had d'Agadir

THE SOUK EL HAD OF AGADIR The city of Agadir has one of the biggest and most wonderful souks in Morocco, an authentic traditional market that perpetuates the legacy of the country’s commercial squares. Open six days a week, except on Mondays, the Souk of Agadir bears the name of Souk El Had, in memory of the time when it was open only on Sundays. Behind its adobe ramparts, immerse yourself in a timeless atmosphere and discover an abundance of goods, from the most contemporary to the most traditional. Built in the early 1960s, after the earthquake, Souk El Had was first renovated in 1997. Now modernized with a roof and new flooring, it offers visitors a space up to standards in terms of safety and pedestrian mobility. A genuine city within the city: it spreads over 13 hectares in the center of Agadir. Souk El Had attracts customers of all kinds.
