Morocco travel guide 2026

Prices, flights, hotels, visa and when to go, from Around the World

Marrakech, Fez and the desert are the core, and distances are big — Marrakech to the Sahara is a two-day trip, not a day out. The dirham is a closed currency (you can't take it in or out), you haggle for everything in the souks, and the high-speed train links Casablanca to Tangier in two hours.
