Bonjour, je serai de passage au Maroc pour trois semaines cet été. Je me demande si je dois ou non mettre Ouarzazate a mon ittinéraire. Je me demande rendu a Agadir, si je filerai vers le désert ou si je remonte plutot vers Fes et Tanger ...a noter qu'a ce moment il reste seulement 8 jours a mon voyage. POur les habitués de ce merveilleux pays, dois-je prioriser le nord pour plus de souvenirs ou je fais une escale obligatoire a OUarzazate ...et si oui, il y a de sympas endroits ou loger ?
Merci de me lire et bonne jounrée a tous, merci de faire de mon voyage ne expérience super enrichissante !
Valérie
pour une semaine et en ete le sud est tres chaud donc visiter essaouira i jour casablanca rabat 2 jours fes et les alentour 4 jours tanger tetouan le reste

Ouarzazate: comme tel, rien à voir, rien à faire mais si tu vas vers le sud, vers Merzouga par exemple, tu peux/dois y passer...la route depuis Marrakech est fantastique.
Mais juste avant d'arriver à Ouarzazate, il y a Aït Ben Hadou qui vaut la peine d'être vu.
Il y a des studios de cinéma, tout près de Ouarzazate mais n'y perds ni ton temps ni ton argent (env 7-8$Can): complètement ridicule...quand tu as vu la facade, depuis la route, tu as tout vu.
Hôtel Royal ou H Prince, au centre ville = au centre de la rue ou route qui traverse la ville: c'est correct (ch à l'étage, avec petit balcon et sdeb et douche...mais insiste pour avoir l'eau chaude. Sinon il y a sur la rue parralèle à la rue principale, derrière la rue principale, un hôtel de meilleur niveau.
Ouarzazate n'est qu'une ville étape quand tu te diriges vers le sud.
Agadir.... ou Essaouira? je n'hésite pas à choisir Essaouira. Des Agadir il y en a partout dans le monde.
"Si je filerai vers le désert" vers Merzouga (début du désert de sable avec de belles dunes) ou vers Layoune (=désert de pierre, de roche)? Merzouga à coup sûr.
Je reviens du Maroc -6 semaines, sac à dos, transport public, sans problème)...je te suggère le sud.
slt valerie. oui il ya des endroi sympa pour se loger a ouarzazate et si tu ve je pourai vous aider.moi je suis un jeun marocain et ouarzazate c ma ville natal .franchman il ya des endroi magnifique a voir. n'hesité pa a me demandé ce q desiré savoir sur ma ville.a bientot .en fait je m'applle abdelali
😉 slt valérie, bien sur qu'il faut aller a ouarzazate en arabe sa veut dire "ville tranquile, je suis français et je connait bien ouarzazate, il y a bcq de chose a voir la casba tu a aussi le vieux ouazazate avec le quartier de "sidi daoud " les gens y sont hyper acueillant tu a le souk et les marché a 10kms tu a l'oasis de "fint" tu peut pas passer a coté de sa tu peut meme dormir et manger pour a peine 15 euros a "fint" et l'aubergiste et genial si tu veut le prendre en photo il te diras ok et a la fin il diras "clic clac kodak c dans la boite apres tu peut aller sur zagora et la tu traverseras des villages comme jamais tu a vu de ta vie au moi 8 comme ils disent la bas tu peut te baigner dans les oueds et 10mn apres tu et sec je pourait te parler de ouarzazate et de ses gens qui sont mes amis pour tjr pendant des heures
comme le dit Pierroro, Ouarzazate, au meme titre qu'Agadir, ne vaut pas un clou,
Mais plein de choses dans les environs,
Ait Benhaddou ou Skoura, pour loger avec plein de possibilités sympas à tous les prix .
Oasis de fint pour passer une belle journée.
Agadir Fes est très long, 1 jour et demi de voyage.
il vaut mieux passer du temps autour d'Agadir, Mirleft, Sidi Ifni Tafraout, Tarroudant, par exemple
Claude
En direct, il fait 11°c et il pleut depuis hier sans interruption!!!!!!
Les cybers sont au sec!
Je vais te dire, Ouarzazate c'est le paradis!!! J'ai découvert cette ville une année où je voulais voir des chameaux et des dunes. La ville en elle même n'est pas exceptionnelle, mais tout autour tu as des sites magnifiques comme la qasbah des cigognes, le ksar de aït ben haddou... et les gens sont très accueillants. Je me suis fait de vrais amis là bas, et si tu as l'occasion, vas au bazard "meski". Ce sont des touargs sédentaires qui viennent d'un petit village du sud. Ils t'accueilleront les bras ouverts (tu dis que tu viens de la part de philippe l'économique et tu demande momo) et seront prêts à t'emmener en excursions pour des prix raisonnables.
Je vis à Ouarzazate une bonne partie de l'année, et il n'y a pas grand chose à y voir ou à y faire.
La kasbah de Taourirt c'est deux heures, Aït Ben Haddou une demi journée, Fint aussi.
Mais la ville est un point de départ commode pour le grand Sud, qui est superbe. Skoura, le Dadès, ou directement Zagora, la vallée du Draa, Tamegroute.
Agadir est une station balnéaire exactement comme en Europe, il y a de fort belles choses aux environs, mais en été c'est bondé, touristes européens et marocains.
Je confirme .. à part de la prospection archéologique .. rien à faire à Ouarzazate.
Cette ville reste l'étape de midi si tu veux atteindre en une journée Erfoud/Merzouga (en partant de Marrakech le matin).
Nous revenons juste d'un voyage de deux mois au Maroc et franchement nous avons largement préféré le sud au nord ... mais ça c'est une question de goût! concernant Ouarzazate franchement c'est pas terrible mais par contre tu dois absolument faire un détour par Aït Benadou qui se trouve à 30 km au Nord de Ouarzazate car le paysage est absolument éblouissant ... une petite adresse très sympa "Auberge, camping du jardin" tu peux pas la rater il y a une piscine et on le voit du bord de la route en venant du centre de Aït Benadou c'est à 2 km environ en filant ... une pnet préference pour les chambres très sympas qui se trouve plus isolées du bâtiment principal juste au bord de la piscine.. c'est très mignon et le soir si tu mange sur place, en fin de soirée tu auras droit à un petit boeuf de djembé organisé par les frères qui s'occupe de l'auberge, vraimment biens et très sympathiques n'hésite pas!
😉 slt mezgarne c vrai tu a raison ouarzazate en lui mème tu fait vite le tour mais je croit que valerie recherche un circuit et se que tu a énoncé prent deja presque 2jours si elle fait les gorges de dadeès et toute la vallée du draa jusqu'a zagora et quelle fait un peut de desert elle auras deja manger 4ou 5 jours sur sont forfait vacances de ouarzazate a zagora c tout de mème plus joli que agadir et tout baigneurs les uns sur les autres????
Slt Valerie.
Franchement je pense qu'il y a plus choses a voir a Ouarzazate que a Rabat ou Casa meme si je suis de Rabat, je pense que aller au Maroc pour visiter Rabat ou Casa c'est un moyen pour perdre ton temp et ton argent parce que elles sont deux villes tres belles we mais tres normales aussi c'est comme visiter un magasin a Rome. C'est pour sa je te conseille si tu veux vraiment decouvrir le Maroc et les vrais marocains tu dois aller au Sud et franchement je crois que Ouarzazate c'est une maniere pour mieux les decouvrir, j'en suis sure car j'ai ete la bas l'ete dernier et je suis tombee amoureuse d'elle depuis le premier jour. c'est une ville magnifique. je l'adore vraiment et j'espere d'y retourner cet ete aussi.
je te conseille de la visiter et Bonne Voyage😉 😉 😎................(il n'ya pas de lettres accentees ici je suis desolee)😊
Un peu de respect !!!! quelqu'un qui n'est pas d'accord avec tes inventions n'est pas obligatoirement un rigolo !
Je maintiens que Ouarzazate se visite en 30 minutes, et les seuls vieux quartiers existants, la kasbah de taourirte, eu 10 minutes, si on accepte de franchir le rideau de faux guides gluants.
Ouarzazate n'a que 2 attraits :
celui de se trouver au carrefour de tous les points d'intéret du sud. et de pouvoir s'y ravitailler en bière.
j'ai fais le tour du maroc en 2006, pour moi ouarzazate n'est pas un des plus grands souvenirs, par contre tu parles de remonter vers le nord du maroc alors surtout ne zappe pas Fès, et si tu peux va à Chaouen c'est vraiment génial
OUlala !!! Merci de cette réponse ! J'ai bien pris note et en effet je reviendrai avec des tas de photos, que je me ferai un plaisir à montrer à tout le monde, , , , jusqu'à ce que plus personne ne veulent en entendre parler !
Bonne journée a vous et merci encore !
excuse moi mais propos ete déplacer mais je maintient tu a pas tout vu a ouarzazate y a pas que le centre ville a ouarzazate et l'érak et sidid daoud faut pas avoir peur de rentrer dans c quartiers les gens y sont les plus gentils du monde .quand il te disent "bienvenue " au maroc c pas du folklore ils le pensent vraimment .pour moi le nord du maroc c pour les amoureux de beau edoits et le sud pour le dépaysement total et les amoureeux du désert comme moi et de ma cherie "une vrai bebere"
Bonjour valerie,
Je reviens d un petit séjour au sud du Maroc, toutes les personnes de ce forum m’ont bien aider pour les infos, il y a vraiment des gens sérieux sur ce site. Merci à vous tous.
Sur ce site j’ai rencontré la personne qui ma accompagner pendant pour voyage au sud pays, il est vraiment gentil, pas un guide mais il m a bien aider à savoir des choses superbes.
Si tu veux autres infos et son email demande à moi.
J ai eu d aide sur ce forum, donc moi aussi j aimerai bien aider les autres.
A bientôt
Cathy
ouarzazate region c'estun paradis surtout vers l'atlas le dieu qui supporte le monde.
bon venez voir les gorges de mgoun les plateaux d'asselda le désert oisis quittez les routes goudrounée et les villes ...
si vraiment vous voulez faire de la découverte de l'autre.
si non restez dans des hotel qui vont vous proposez des circuit cent p cent que du folklore et du bakchich
Bonjour à vous, amie francophone.
On vous a tout dit sur Ouarzazate.
Si en soi, la ville n'a que très peu d'intérêt (voire aucun), elle en fait un point stratégique pour se poser et visiter le grand sud.
En couchant à Ouarzazate, vous pouvez rayonner dans les vallées du Draa, Dadés, visiter les villes de Zagora, et tant d'autres choses encore.
3 nuits sur place, par exemple.
Il y a des hotels pour toutes les bourses, et surtout un grand choix de restaurants.
Moi j'aime voyager "confort" et c'est pour cette raison que je fais étape à Ouarzazate, où se trouvent le seuls vrais hotels 3/4* de la zone.
A mon avis, mieux vaut Essaouira qu'Agadir... mille fois mieux!
Bonnes vacances.
bonjour valerie:

Hi there, I m planning a trip to Morocco in our camper van for September/October, and I m torn between visiting Rabat or Casablanca (we don t want to spend too…
Hello everyone, I m currently planning our next trip to Morocco. We really enjoy visiting one or two collective granaries on each of our trips. We ve seen some…
Hello, my husband and I will be in Egypt this coming November. Cairo seems more challenging to explore without a guide, and we’ll be there for 3 full days. Would anyone have the name of a guide?
Thanks!
Hi, we're looking for a guide to show us around Essaouira.
We're 11 adults and don't want to go through an agency. If you have a contact to help us discover this city, that would be great!
Thanks
I’m heading back to Egypt for the first time in 30 years this July. Last time, I was 20, and we spent two weeks traveling on a shoestring as backpackers.
I’m wondering about a "cruise" on a felucca from Aswan—mainly to avoid being stuck in an air-conditioned tourist bubble (we’re already spending our first week in that setting with our diving club). We’d like to explore the most interesting stretch of the Nile between Aswan and Luxor. Do you have any thoughts on this option, tips, or maybe some contacts?
I was wondering if it’s possible to join a group as a solo traveler with local agencies in Djanet for circuits like Tadrart, Essendilene, Sefar, or Tassili?
If you have any agencies to recommend, I’d love to hear about them.
I didn’t find any info on the forum.
Best,
Here’s a first draft for a 14-night itinerary during the Christmas break with two teens. We’re especially fond of hiking (nothing too extreme, though), which is why we’re drawn to the south.
- Marrakech (2 nights)
- Aït Ben Haddou (1 night)
- Dadès (3 nights, though we’re thinking of doing a day trip to the Todra Gorge on one of those days)
- M'hamid (1 night)
- Erg Chigaga (1 night)
- 4 nights to slot in
- Marrakech (2 nights)
Okay, I realize this involves a lot of driving, and we’re still debating the return route since we’d like to avoid the Tichka Pass in January, but going through Taroudant seems like it would add *a lot* of time. 😕
If you’ve got other suggestions for an itinerary with great hikes, I’m all ears!
Also, the 4 nights total in MRK isn’t really our preference, but since we’re arriving/departing super early from overseas, we’d like to be a bit rested before the long flight.
Another question:
For hikes (aside from the desert one), is it better to have a guide with us, or are the trails well-marked?
Hi everyone,
Our trip to Morocco will be from November 3 to 17, in the High Atlas.
Basically, our route would be:
Marrakech - Aït Benhaddou
Skoura - Tinghir - Merzouga
Merzouga via the N12 to Zagora
Zagora - Draa Valley - Marrakech
It seems to be the low season, so I’d love to travel without having to book accommodations in advance. In other countries, pre-booking has restricted us and kept us from visiting unplanned sites. Freedom is important to us, but I’d also like to avoid arriving somewhere and finding nothing available.
What do you recommend? Book ahead or not?
Your advice is always helpful, and thanks to anyone who can shed some light on this for me.
Roberto
First of all: a big thank you to everyone whose insightful, funny, lively, and exotic posts we’ve enjoyed. It’s a joy to find such lovely writers on this forum, who’ve given me tons of ideas and addresses to prepare our trip.
Our plan: to explore Morocco from November 2nd to December 4th. We’ll have our own vehicle (a 2011 Renault Grand Scenic, in great condition), shipped with us from Sète to Tanger Med. Returning from Nador.
Our profile: 75 and 62 years young, so old but happy to be, in very good health. Seasoned travelers—it’s practically our whole life. Lovers of beautiful landscapes, historic sites, fine craftsmanship, and road trips. This will be my 3rd trip to Morocco, but the first two were 20 and 17 years ago. I’ve never been north of the Essaouira-Marrakech line (though I’ve gone further south). As for my husband, a lifelong expat including in Muslim countries, it’s his first time in Morocco.
He’s the one driving. He’s very experienced, cautious, not necessarily fast, but used to driving in all conditions (and countries, including the most creative on the road). But I don’t want to tire him out, and he no longer drives at night (and we’ll be there in November).
I’ve decided to show him a bit of everything by taking a road trip along beautiful backroads, with daily distances averaging 180-200 km (except on highways, which will be rare), regularly broken up by rest days. I’m counting on a speed of 40-50 km/h, plus stops/visits along the way.
Since I’ve read so many posts, I’ve narrowed it down to some very specific questions.
1) Coming directly from Rabat via the highway, we’d prefer to skip Marrakech*. Still, we’ll need to sleep somewhere nearby. We’ll head toward Skoura the next day. Does anyone have a well-located address for this route, possibly east of Marrakech? Ideally, we’re looking for a small town, easy parking, clean accommodation (minimum) with average comfort (or better if available), a bit heated, and if possible, pretty and/or nice—but above all, a place to sleep well, wash with lukewarm (ideally hot) water, and have a decent dinner.
(*Explanation for the "no-go" in Marrakech: it’s a shame, because there are truly beautiful things in this city, but I think the vibe won’t suit us—it’s an understatement for "it’ll put us off" / "make us flee" / "traumatize us." Not because it’s too crowded and we want to stand out from tourists (we’re part of them), but because of forced henna on your hand, or spending 10 minutes every quarter-hour saying "no thank you" to a "guide" who’s as much a guide as I am a trapeze artist. Knowing us, it’ll wear us down. The country is vast and beautiful, and our time too short to waste our memories just days after arriving. And I don’t want to ruin things for my peaceful husband, or he’ll demand we turn back—and Sète in November isn’t exactly thrilling either.)
2) Which route to Skoura (in 2 days)? I see two options: either via the Tichka Pass, with a night in Telouet before reaching Skoura, or via the R307/N23 from Demnate, with a night near Megdaz before descending to Skoura. So: Tichka Pass or R307/N23? I have a slight (big) preference for the second option, even though I know the other route is very beautiful too. Of course, before deciding, we’ll check the weather and the current state of the R307/N23—does anyone know where to get info on the road conditions? But even assuming the road is "passable," is it a bit too tough in itself? In short, is it reasonable? If a kind soul could share their experience, a thousand thanks in advance.
That’s all I’ve written for now. I’ll save the other questions for later posts. Thanks again to those who had the patience to read this and to those who can respond. Happy Sunday to all!
I’m just a few days away from my trip to Marrakech—I’m leaving from November 13th to 20th and bringing my parents along! I’d love to plan my stay as best as I can, and I’m sure the forum crew can help. So, here are my questions:
- Where’s the best place to exchange money without getting ripped off? The owner of the riad where we’re staying told us to avoid doing it at the airport because it’s really expensive and to do it in the medina instead, near Jemaa el-Fna square.
- Which traditional hammams do you recommend that are reasonably priced? How much should we budget for one? That’ll help me plan my expenses.
- What are some nice restaurants in the medina?
- I’d also like to know roughly how much to expect for a tea, a meal, a taxi, a djellaba, and babouches. I don’t want to get overcharged and would like to know what to expect.
- What are the must-do activities and places to visit?
Hi, I’d like to head to Morocco next week with my car. I’ve looked online at all the different info about the ferry crossing to Tangier, but I’m finding it really expensive. Is there a way to buy tickets in Spain? Or another way to get the Algeciras–Tangier crossing cheaper? Thanks for any tips or info!
We found a guide who offers the trip from M'hamid to a camp (departure at 3 PM, tea, meal, camel ride, overnight stay, breakfast, and return to M'Hamid by 11 AM the next day via the sacred oasis). He quoted us a price of 380 € for April.
What do you think of this rate?
This might sound like a silly question, but is it common to negotiate the price for this kind of thing (we're booking from France)? It’s still a big part of our travel budget.
Hi there,
We're planning to visit Egypt between January 25 and February 15, 2027. I looked up the Ramadan dates and found some sites saying it starts on February 8, while others say February 18... Where's the mistake?
Thanks,
Christian
Hi there,
We’re a family of 4 with two boys aged 12 and 10 traveling to Egypt in February.
We’re spending 3 days in Cairo to take our time exploring the city and the sites before heading south.
-Is it necessary to have a guide to visit the GEM? Are audio guides available?
-Do you have any contacts for drivers to organize a few transfers (Giza, Saqqara, Airport)?
-Do you know a French-speaking guide who’s friendly, family-friendly, and good at making things exciting, with reasonable prices?
With our two teens, we’re heading to Morocco for two weeks at the end of December and beginning of January. It’ll be our first trip that’s more "off the beaten path," even though we’ve visited several countries before. Given the overwhelming amount of info, I’m feeling a bit swamped with the prep this trip requires, and I’ll admit I’m a little lost when it comes to figuring out what’s realistic to visit in two weeks 😕 So, all your tips, personal experiences, and suggestions are more than welcome!
- Which places should we prioritize during this time of year? (I’ve read that some spots are less accessible in winter?)
- What’s the best way to get around? (rental car, train, private transport, buses, etc.? — just a heads-up, we’ll have a few suitcases!)
- In terms of "safety," are there any areas to avoid?
- Any recommendations for reliable local tour companies (beyond the big names like "Get Your Guide") that offer excursions or private transport to help us explore the country?
- A doable 2-week itinerary that lets us enjoy the country’s diversity without having to change accommodations every two days?
I’m planning a trip to the High Atlas in Morocco and have a few questions for you:
- Why do so many people recommend avoiding international agencies for car rentals? Can anyone explain why?
- Is Booking.com reliable, and has anyone rented a vehicle through their service? There’s a pretty big price difference compared to local Moroccan agencies.
- Is there a detailed road map included in the rental car?
- Is Google Maps enough to get around the High Atlas? This will be my first trip there.
Thanks so much to anyone who can help with this destination I’ve been dreaming about for years.
Have a great evening,
Roberto
hi there, I’m heading to Tunisia 🙂 from April 27 to May 8 with my family. I’ve read through the various discussions about the country, but I’m still a bit unsure🤪: for currency exchange, I saw on the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs website that withdrawing currency with a bank card from ATMs is limited to 200 TND per week. There are four of us traveling by car, so that might be a bit tight! And it’s a hassle to carry a lot of cash, even if I’m not being paranoid! What do you all recommend?
Cheers,
Laurent.
We're planning a 2-week trip in late February/early March for a road trip in the High Atlas with a rental car, and we'd love to avoid booking our accommodations in advance. Is that doable, easily manageable, or risky (are accommodations available, expensive, or not great)? Thanks for your tips!
Annie
Hi,
This autumn, we’re planning to explore the Oriental region and we’re wondering where the best place to land would be. We’ll have three weeks ahead of us and we’ll be renting a car.
Any tips would be much appreciated. Thanks.
Is there an official website or list of certified Egyptologist guides in Egypt? And most importantly, what are the normal prices for a full day or half day? There’s so much scamming and crazy pricing—depending on who you contact, it can range from simple to quadruple!!!!
Thanks
Hello,
In September, my wife and I, along with another couple, will be traveling to Tunisia and staying at the Sheherasade Hotel near Sousse.
We’d love to hear your recommendations or tips on places to visit, as well as advice on taxis or other transportation options.
Thanks in advance!
This autumn’s trip should be in Morocco—barring any geopolitical issues between now and then.
After many trips to the south of Fès, I’m giving the north a try.
My plan is roughly to do a road trip loop from Rabat back to Rabat, passing through Asilah, Tangier, Tétouan, Chefchaouen, Akchour, Fès, Meknès, and Volubilis.
That’s a lot of cities.
Probably a bit too many for our taste—we usually prefer more isolated spots...
So I’m looking for tips on little backroads, secluded beaches, half-day hikes, and offbeat places.
If you’ve also got recommendations for accommodation... (We’re open to splurging over 100 € if it’s a real favorite.)
Feel free to think outside the box—this is an open-ended plan! !😉
Hello,
I’m looking for testimonials from Pieds-Noirs who have recently returned to Algeria.
There can’t be many left after 65 years of the country’s independence.
I’m planning to go back myself soon to reconnect with my roots... before I pass away...
I’ve started making a few pre-bookings for hotels and apartments to rent in Algiers. At first, I received friendly and welcoming responses. Then, when I mentioned I wanted to stay for two or three weeks—maybe even a month—explaining that my trip wouldn’t be strictly touristy but more of a pilgrimage to the places of my childhood, and that it would likely be a very emotional journey, I expected a positive and warm reaction to my approach. Instead, I suddenly stopped getting replies from the three or four people I’d contacted. So now I’m wondering about the reception former Pieds-Noirs can expect...
Anyone here who can share their experience of returning? I specified “recently” because it seems that right now, diplomatic relations between the two governments are extremely tense, not to say hostile... even if Macron claims otherwise...
Hello,
I’m traveling to Algeria from October 27 to November 16, 2026.
I’d love to hear from anyone who’s been through the process about the accommodation attestation required for the visa application:
- Does it need to cover the entire duration of the trip?
- Is this document mandatory for a hotel to rent a room?
- Is it checked during inspections?
- Is a hotel booking (e.g., via Booking.com) sufficient for the visa?
- If so, does it need to be paid in advance?
I plan to visit several cities and do one or more treks with a guide or agency.
If you have any contacts you’d recommend, I’d be grateful!
Also, I’d love to share this trip with a companion who’s already done some traveling.
We’d organize the journey together, of course.
Thanks for your feedback!
Safe travels to all,
Dom, Dijon, 64 years old
I’m leaving for Tunisia in five weeks for a full 15-day trip. I’ll be arriving in Monastir and departing from there as well.
I’d like to do a route that’s a bit different from my first stay, which was more focused on cities and culture (Tunis, Sousse, Kairouan, El Jem).
I’ll be getting around by public transport.
I’d like to head south toward Tozeur, and I saw that you can take a *louage* from Monastir to Sbeitla (2h30). I imagine it’s not too complicated to get to Tozeur from there afterward? The issue is the return trip to Monastir and safety in Sbeitla.
If this route seems too complicated, I might opt for Djerba instead, which looks simpler.
I’m heading to Morocco in September 2026, and part of my trip takes me through Merzouga. I’m looking for a 4x4 driver-guide to explore the area with my partner and me.
