Marrakesh Travel Guide: 2,370 reviews and 5,323 photos
There is little I can tell you to prepare for an
experience like 'Marrakesh'.
CONTRASTS
between the old medina
and the modern parth of Guéliz. The traditional way
of making leather and the modern shopping centers...
SECRETS
can be found behind the thick red walls
in the city. A cemetary , palaces , tombs....
so many people living in little alleys...
The thing I can do ,
is telling you my experiences ,
how I lived the city.
- Pros:A different world , palaces , the people , food...shopping
- Cons:Begging , badgering , ....
- In a nutshell:An experience without compare.

Complete info and great pixs. Love to visit Morocco.
Hi, enjoyed your special tips - all those extra bit of special happenings when travelling around Marrakech and Morocco with your senses open to all that happening around.
Unique in style, informative and lovely page full of amazing pictures, delicious tastes and secret atmosphere. Thanks a lot for refreshing my great Marrakesh memories.
Lovely page Frank, quite unusual too. Very much enjoyed my tour through Marrakesh with you, thank you (~_~)
Great pics and descriptions. You really make the place come alive. Another great page.
been a little late to explore but what an awsome page!
superbly done page, that's all I can say.
Great page, Frank! Very colorful and original!
Great page on Marrakesh Frank - I too love getting lost in the souks, and I brought back some Ras el hanout from Morocco too. Lovely photographs as always.
