Marrakech - A great getaway destination
The Djema el-fina is just what you see on the tv and in films. There are snake charmers and food vendors everywhere. It is a tourist mecca which is best observed from a café balcony drinking mint tea. We arranged for a walking guide to show us the city for a morning and had a great locals insight into daily life as well as visiting the main sights of the Saadian Tombs and the Marrakech Museum. We also took a tour out of the city to the Ouzoud Waterfalls and the Grand Atlas mountains. It was lovely to get out of the city and see a bit more of the country. A trip to Marrakech would not be complete without a trip round the souk shopping. Just remember to barter hard. I remember I bought jewellery.
I hope you are enjoying these destination memories, it would be great to hear your travel memories.
