Advice for Potential Travellers
Most important is not to travel during the Festival of Eid (15th October 2013) as virtually all of Morocco shuts down. On our trip the Festival of Eid co-incided with our free day in Marrakech. As virtually everything was shut, it meant that there was very little to do and made the end of the holiday finish on a real low. It even affected our guided tour round the old city as everything was shutting early and the guide had to rush to get us round before they closed. You also need to be aware that on the day of the festival, they burn the sacrificed sheep's carcasses on the street corners (not a very pleasant smell)The standard itinerary does not use any riads and the rooms are pretty basic, so we would have liked to have taken the upgrade accommodation option if it had been available to us.
