Morocco

Situated in the southern part of the Mediterranean, Morocco has been influenced by Europe across the sea, by Africa, and by Berber, Arab, Jewish and Christian cultures. The result has been a rich fusion of traditions creating the unique country that is here now. Morocco is home to classical cities such as Marrakesh, Casablanca, Tangiers, Fès and Rabat. See medieval Arabic cities, kasbahs, royal palaces and tombs. Alternatively, head to the beautiful beaches in Agadir. Listen to traditional Moroccan music, or enjoy the elaborate preparation of Moroccan mint tea. Trek through the Atlas mountains, or follow caravan routes through the Sahara by camel back. This magical, rich and rewarding country is awaiting your discovery.

Chefchaouene, Morocco
Beautiful small town in Rif area…all painted in amazing blue color. People are very friendly, atmosphere is sooooo relaxing… trekking in nearby mountains can bring some nice surprisings…:)
Tanger, Morocco
Don't attempt to camp on Tangier beach, or climb the mountain leading away from the beach. You will be arrested by armed guards who don't speak english and shout "papers!" at you thinking you're a refugee trying to sneak into Spanish territory!
Marrakech, Morocco
Beware of the men with monkeys or snakes, once they get them on you for a photo, they dont come off till you pay!
Chefchaouene, Morocco
capital del hachis (*_*)un pueblo increible.gente de la tierra muy hospitalaria (son comerciantes por naturaleza) y mucho turista simpático, alegre y abierto.(como gran parte de marruecos).si tienes suerte, te invitarán a llevarte a la montaña para que puedas hacerte tu propio hachis. aunque no hay que fiarse de todo el mundo ;o)
Marrakech, Morocco
Don't miss the spice market. While I was there I loaded up on the Apple flavored tea but ran out of it in 2006. Damn I miss that stuff.
Agadir, Morocco
Main tourist action is along the sea-front. All the Moroccans walk along the boardwalk in the evenings. Plenty of restaurants. Men tend to stare but not in a sleezy way.
Marrakech, Morocco
Avoid the touts and ripoff merchants of the Djma el Fna by going into shops that only locals would use. The people are friendly and interesting, and on one occassion I met the most excellent local man (who happened to work in the shop next door) by wandering into a herb and spice shop and saying hello to the guys chilling down the back drinking tea. I ended up staying for ages and chatting, met all his friends later on, then was treated to a beautiful meal with his family the following night at his house. Just at a time when I was beginning to think Morocco was full of thieves and liars, this man and his family and friends proved how wrong I was. Not your typical tourist experience.
Tanger, Morocco
Celebrated by countless writers and painters, Tanger is Africa facing Europe. The old Medina's white walls are overlooking the sea from a dramatic cliff. On the less touristical side, Tanger is also the hub for illegal immigrants and goods.
Marrakech, Morocco
It's nice here.  Don't miss the spice market.  I used this place as a stopover for camel/desert excursions.  The building structures are beautiful...somewhat run down, but some sections definitely have that old school...and I mean Hanibal appeal.
Rabat, Morocco
There are surely more interesting places in Marocco than Rabat, especially its market is nothing like the real Maroccan markets in some more remote places. It may be a good start, though, if you need to adapt to local habits. It is sort of in between real Marocco and Europe, say (but don't take me literally).
