All about Central Morocco
When to visit
Temperatures soar across central Morocco in the summer months (May through September), when the cities and towns are stifling and the desert simply dangerous. The milder months of spring and fall are the most popular, with balmy days and cool nights, but Morocco is a year-round destination. There are mild temperatures even in winter, though the nights get chilly. Keep in mind that most Moroccans fast during Ramadan in the early spring, so be respectful when grabbing a bite out and about.
Getting around
Public transport in central Morocco is sparse and unreliable, dominated by a network of “petit taxis” (shared taxis for short trips) and “grand taxis” (shared taxis for trips between towns or villages). There is no train service in much of the region nor domestic flights. Though you can get around by rental car, poor signage and weak GPS signal make navigating on your own a challenge. The best option is a private car service with an experienced local driver.
Traveler tips
For a truly Moroccan experience that will leave you relaxed and squeaky clean, visit one of the many hammams (bath houses) scattered across Marrakech and central Morocco. Choose between a straightforward public hammam or a more luxurious private one; both offer steam rooms, a spot to wash down with olive oil-based black soap and exfoliate with a kessa (scrubbing glove), and a relaxation area to massage in some argan oil and unwind.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is central Morocco worth a visit?
Yes, this vast area is one of the most captivating and varied parts of Morocco, home to both bustling cities and fortified villages, plus some of the most spectacular landscapes in the country. Travel from the colorful markets of Marrakech to the vast dunes of the Sahara, with stops at oases and kasbahs in between.
Where is central Morocco located?
Central Morocco stretches from Marrakech in the west, to the desert outpost of Merzouga in the east. Farther west is the resort town of Essaouira and the Atlantic Ocean, while further east lies the great Sahara Desert. The area encompasses the High Atlas Mountains, with the lush Ourika Valley at the foot and Kik Plateau high above.
What language do they speak in central Morocco?
Most people in Central Morocco speak at least two languages and you’ll often find signage translated. The two most common (and official) languages are Arabic and Berber (or Amazigh), though there are many local dialects of each. French is also commonly spoken, as is English in the more touristy areas.
What are the top attractions to visit in central Morocco?
Marrakech draws throngs with its historic architecture and labyrinthine souks (marketplaces), while the Sahara Desert offers spellbinding dunes stretching beyond the horizon. In the middle of these two headliners are the Atlas Mountains and the UNESCO-listed Kasbah of Aït Ben Haddou (Ksar of Ait Benhaddou).
How many days do you need in central Morocco?
Dedicate at least five days to central Morocco. Begin with 2-3 days in Marrakech to explore its cultural landmarks and markets, then take a day trip to the Sahara, taking in the Atlas Mountains, Kasbah of Aït Ben Haddou, and Todra and Dadès Gorges. And don’t forget to spend a night in the desert to marvel at the stars.
What should I wear in central Morocco?
Morocco is a predominantly Muslim country and standards of dress skew towards modest (though you’re not expected to cover yourself completely and women don’t need to wear headscarves). Though temperatures soar in summer, avoid wearing shorts and sleeveless tops, and instead opt for light linen or cotton long pants and shirts that cover the shoulders.
