What are Sonia Justo's top travel tips for exploring Marrakech?

Hi, I’m Sonia Justo from . Marrakech is one of those places that overwhelms all the senses in the best way, so a few smart tips make the experience much smoother.

Here are 0 favorite tips when exploring the streets of Marrakech:

1. Stay inside or near the medina so you can walk everywhere and get lost in the small streets.
2. Visit early morning and around sunset for softer light and fewer crowds (perfect for photos).
3. Dress light but modest: breathable fabrics, shoulders/chest not too exposed.
4. Always agree on taxi prices (or ask to turn the meter on) before starting the ride.
5. In souks, bargaining is part of the culture—stay friendly and smile.
6. Carry cash (small notes) and keep valuables in a money belt or zipped bag.
7. Take breaks on rooftop terraces to escape the chaos and enjoy the view.

Is there anything specific you would like tips on—accommodation, photos, food, or safety?
