1. Merzouga Desert
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 1,336 reviews
Reviewed By riddlestory - Vyshneve, Ukraine
Merzouga is a small village in the southeast of Morocco and it is the last settlement in front of the boundless desert - the gate to the desert... Here people come from all over the world to see the real elements - a sea of bright orange sand, to ride a desert ship - camel and fall in love once and for all times in this oriental tale. We preferred to meet the dawn in the desert, but stopped to spend the night in a small town of pink color - Erfoud, where the locals kindly provided us with a roof with a mattress and pillows so we could get some sleep before we go to the desert. The brightest thing that is remembered in this area is the night sky. Illuminations of small towns cannot give so much light to cover the light of distant stars and so the sky in the desert is studded with diamonds and it is impossible to forget it... We did not fall asleep that night, admiring the light of the silver stars, we forgot about the time, and at 3.00 o'clock in the morning, it was time to move into the desert to see how the reddened sun rose from the sand dunes and changed the color of the endless desert from gray to bright orange.

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

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.
3. 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.

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

Located on a large hilltop alongside the Hassan Tower complete with ceremonial guards on horseback and foot, the Mausoleum of Mohammad V is an impressive site. Plan on walking the square and observing the exquisite exterior prior to entering to pay your respects.
5. Jardin Majorelle

4.5 based on 49,740 reviews
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.

Reviewed By J0anned568 - Canberra, Australia
This site in Rabat is well worth a visit and is of considerable historic interest. Getting there by private bus (or car) was tricky towards the middle of the day because local traffic was in log-jam in a nearby intersection so allow time for this or walk. Leaving was even more difficult as we needed to turn left out of the ruins and we had to go the long way around the block and that took 20 mins to get back to essentially the same spot but on opposite side of the road. The site is Arabic/Islamic ruins set among older Roman ruins. They are beautifully presented having been integrated into a botanic garden. The ruins are at the bottom of a hill reached by a 'steepish' sloping path with some steps. The ground within the ruins is uneven, so less mobile people need to be careful. We had our own guide, and I suggest making sure that you can get information about the site online or out of guide books otherwise you will wander around and not realise what you are looking at. I don't recall any signs to point out different elements. Good winter rains meant that the area was covered by wildflowers and wonderful yellow-coloured lichens. Storks were perched on large stick nests and were often engaged in mating activities with lots of noise and fanfare. Take time to wander as you can catch site of mosaics and other features. It as worth visiting the pond with eels (good apparently for fertility) and we gave the local woman some money to feed the cats. It was very peaceful and a great place to spend a quite time. It was not very busy during our visit in late March.

It was amazing drive through the Valley with it's palmeries and people still living along the river because most families are firmers. We stoped by some very good photo spots. Local recently used irrigated system.

Celebrated our wedding anniversary with a day trip from Marrakech to the Ouzoud Falls organised by Tizi Trekking. Had a wonderful time exploring these breathtaking cascades with our knowledgeable and friendly local guide. The scenery is stunning with lots of nature, including the local troop of Barbary Macaques. Had a wonderful lunch of traditional lamb tagine on a terrace overlooking the falls. Unforgettable experience.
