Little Marrakech
This is a top pick! ... We also had use of the owners private garden and pool. 20km further inland was the other reason for this sojourn inland - Taroudannt. A walled city with vibrant markets of Marrakesh but without the tourists or from the locals. Infact we only saw a ...
Taroudant

Falling foul of foul weather

Henna-ed

Taroundannt
Glad to leave the freezing mountains of Imlil and headed to Taroundannt today via the Tizi N Test pass. Which was much like the other pass except prettier. Taroundannt is named after a lady who apparently lost her children in a flood.. pretty ...
A day in the life of a Moroccan... Not really
But sort of… Today was such a great day that I hardly know where to begin. Jeff and I finally broke the code (with the help of Issam ) of how to ask for boiling water and bowls. We are now eating the instant oatmeal we brought with us for ...

... trip… and I know I have to at least try to go back there to be able to say I’ve “fully explored Morocco”. I ask if there’s a collective taxi to Assaka. “Which Assaka?” is the response, “there ...
Third Day - Taroudant trip
