Frequently asked questions

Should I hire a guide for the medina?+

Not mandatory, but a local guide for the first afternoon helps you read the souks and the negotiating culture.

What do I wear in Marrakech?+

Dress modestly — shoulders and knees covered — to avoid unwanted attention and to respect local norms. The heat makes breathable fabrics essential.
