I will be flying into Casablanca on saturday. Im thinking on heading straight to marackesh(sp?) and spend the days there. I am also intrested in the seeing the dunes, but there might not be enough time for that :(

Anyone have any suggestings, on maybe some tours? Or any personal experiences.

Thanks

Oh and Marrakesh is not in Spain, it is about 3 hours drive from Casa... I will definitely go there. If you like clubing hit up Pacha in Marrakesh... I never been there, but I hear it's kick ass.

I don't really recommend driving there, unless you're skilled with the stick and can deal with crazy drivers !

Find the episode of " Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmern" in Morrocco on Travel Channel and eat some of the good stuff he eats. Looks like fun.

Peace

heheh, i meant sp for spelling. :p

I think my biggest concern right now is the desert. What would be a good way to see the dunes, cross the atlas mountains and back to Marrakech? Is there a specific tour company i should look into?

Will do that, thanks.



Also i found a tour at the www.Saharaexpe.ma
Looks good, i might bite that one.

I wouldn't hire a guide unless someone reference him.

Yes... the buying process is still undergo. They is all kind of paper work to do before we get keys. However the sale agreement is signed and put money down.
