Question
Getting Around
Answer
Taxis: It is easy to hail a taxi from the street. Before you get in the taxi, make sure the driver is using the meter to calculate your fare. App: New app called inDrive. We have not personally used it as company recently started. However it was abundantly advertised. Walk: Marrakesh is a safe place to walk around, just be mindful as you always would when walking around. During the day can be hot, make sure to always have bottled water (available everywhere for purchase). The evenings can be chilly, so bring a light jacket.
Question
Hotels and Riads

We have provided a few suggestions for hotels. However, you can stay just about anywhere in the city. You can book directly through the hotel website or a travel website such as booking.com, expedia.com, hotels.com, kayak.com, i-escape.com (boutique riads), etc. The options are endless.
