MOROCCO | Getting Lost in Marrakesh!

Описание: Come with us on our Morocco adventure as we explore the chaos of Marrakesh (Marrakech), take a day-trip to the quiet and traditional Berber village of Imlil in the high Atlas Mountains, and then finally ride camels in the desert oasis of Palmerie just minutes from downtown Marrakech!

We started our African family vacation by landing in Casablanca and checking out the Hassan II Mosque, then staying for two nights at a riad in Fes (see our "Morocco Part I" vlog for that part of our trip, link below). We then headed further north towards Chefchaouen as our next stop (see our "Morocco Part II" vlog, link below). We took the long way up to the "blue city" so we could stop by the Royal Stables in Meknes and the Roman ruins in Volubilis along the way. It was a small detour but it was well worth it to see these incredible sites!

We then turned back south and (after an 8-hour drive) ended up in Marrakech. We spent a couple days there drinking fresh-squeezed orange juice in the UNESCO World Heritage site of Jemaa el-Fnaa (Djemaa el Fna) square, dodging the snake charmers as they tried to drape their snakes around our necks, and getting hopelessly lost in the labyrinth of the medina.

While based in Marrakech we also took a day trip to the high Atlas Mountains, driving past Richard Branson's hotel ("Kasbah Tamadot", link below), and ending in the Berber village called Imlil. While in Imlil we hiked up to the hotel "La Kasbah du Toubkal" (link below) where we had a rooftop lunch with the "world's greatest view" of Mount Toubkal, the highest peak in northern Africa. We continued our hike to a powerful and majestic waterfall, fed by melting glacial water from the mountain.

The next day was our last in Morocco, and we finished our trip by meeting the gentle giants (camels!) and their adorable fuzzy babies in Palmerie for a little ride around the desert. Did you know baby camels are born without humps?!
