An Itinerary
There a lots of ways to see Morocco, but depending on time, money and the amount one can absorb at any given time, choices need to be made. Also, availability, time of year, weather will also shape the trip.
We made Marrakech our base, planning trips to the Sahara and Essaouira from there. We also stayed in two riads, one more like a hotel and one like staying someone’s home. Both were in the Medina and gave us a slightly different take on life there.

Day Two - Explored the Medina with a Guide, rooftop dinner and drinks.
Day Three - Jardin Majorelle and dinner with the ladies of Sahbi, Sahbi
