Absolutely. Marrakech is the most colorful of all Moroccan cities when it comes to traditional shopping, as it has been for hundreds of years. For many tourists, shopping is a central part of their trip, and in Morocco, there are so many exotic products to browse and choose from. “Souks” are the traditional Arab markets.

• Souks or souqs are the traditional name for a market or bazaar that features a wide variety of stalls, booths, or small stores, usually specializing in one thing.

Souqs primarily offer items such as leather, carpets, metalwork, pottery, traditional Muslim clothing, traditional lanterns, nuts and dried fruits, jewelry, argan oil, and much more. There is an amazing variety of spices, teas, nuts, and other exotic products.

No, tourists can mostly wear what they like, but it is advisable to dress modestly (i.e., no mini skirts or bikini tops in public) so as not to offend the locals.

Go for at least two weeks; if one only has limited time, then prioritize Marrakesh. Here, you will get the fastest insight into the diverse and colorful culture of Morocco.

You can always exchange euros across the country. You can even pay in euros very frequently. Swiss Francs are not very popular, so you have to go to an official exchange office or bank to exchange them. If you can’t pay in EUR, we recommend directly changing MAD (Moroccan dirham) upon arrival. Coins in foreign currency, however, are not welcome.

It is advisable not to drink the water from the tap, even if local people do. They’re used to it. However, water is readily available everywhere. A bottle costs about 6 MAD (60 cents).
