Informations Pratiques for Your Voyage in Marrakech : the Guide d'Eric

Les French do not have pas betreatment de visa for Morocco (stay < 90 days). La devise is the dirham (1€ ≈ 11 MAD). La weather in Marrakech : 20-25°C en hiver, 35-45°C in summer, soleil almost all year round. L'airport is to 20 min of the centre. Complete guide by Eric, resident French since 2007.

Visa and formalities : it is simple

Les ressortissants French, belges and suisses do not have pas betreatment de visa for a stay de less than 90 days. Il you need a passeport valide au less 6 mois after the date de retour. Bonne astuce : it is also possible d'entrer with a carte d'identity to condition de present a booking d'hotel confirmee (we envoyons celle of the Riad Vendôme by e-mail). To the airport, remplissez the fiche d'entrance — and welcome in Morocco.

Argent and taux de change

La devise is the dirham Moroccan (MAD). Le taux de change tourne autour de 1€ = 11 MAD. On ne can pas acheter de dirhams en France — changez to arrival. Des distributeurs automatiques and of the bureaux de change are located to the airport and everywhere in the medina (il y en a a to 200 metres of the riad). The cartes bancaires are accepted in the hotels and restaurants, but plan of the liquide for the souks and the taxis — it is the nerf of the marchandage.

Security : Marrakech is safe

La ville is safe for the touristes. La police touristique is presents in the medina and on the places. Like everywhere, restez vigilant in the endroits crowded. Le quartier Dar El Bacha, where is located the Riad Vendôme, is one of the most quiets and safes of the medina — it is the neighbourhood of the Palais of the Roi.

Code vestimentaire

Morocco is a pays musulman tolerant. In the medina, it is respectueux de couvrir shoulders and genoux, especially for the femmes. In the hotels, restaurants and quartiers modern (Gueliz, Hivernage), the tenue is libre. At Riad Vendôme, you are at home — maillot de bain bienvenu in the jacuzzi and to the pool.

Souks and shopping

The souks are ouverts tous the days de 9:00 to 20:00. Certains ferment the Friday midi. Le morning is the best moment for marchander — the vendeurs are more relaxed and the streetlles less encombrees. To Gueliz (ville nouvelle) : boutiques ouvertes lun-sam de 9:00 to 12:30 and 15:30 to 19:00. Et the conseil d'Eric : commencez by offer un tiers of the prices announced. Le marchandage is a art and a plaisir — pas a combat.
