🗓️Best time to visit
March–May and October–November; summer tops 40°C — avoid it if you can.
📸Top activities & landmarks
- Jemaa el-Fnaa at night — an unrepeatable open-air theatre
- The medina souqs (getting lost is the point)
- Jardin Majorelle and Bahia Palace
- Koutoubia Mosque and its minaret
- Day trip to the Atlas mountains and Ourika valley
🏨Where to stay
A riad inside the medina for the real experience (pick highly-reviewed ones); Gueliz/Hivernage for modern hotels and calm.
⚠️Tips & warnings
Haggle for everything in the souqs (start politely at a third). Decline volunteer 'guides' in the lanes; arrange day drivers through your hotel.
📍 On the ground
Getting around: The medina is walking-only (car-free lanes) — memorize your riad's name and a nearby landmark. Petit taxis by meter (insist), or Careem/inDrive in the new town. Horse carriages by pre-agreed price.
