Skimmed through to help with planning my possible trip to Morocco and Spain in early 2023。

Sheri Fresonke Harper

Offered good ideas for useful places to see and included a map I was able to use。 We got a helpful map from our hotel that was easier to use although we had access to the internet most of the time。 I appreciated the photos and suggestions。

Erin

A great resource。 Good tips and really helped me plan my vacation。

Vastly more data in this guide than I required, as my visit is just to Marrakesh。 However I particularly enjoyed reading the historical section on Morocco, which then resulted in being drawn into the tribal and cultural sections of the book。 Now I was hooked。 In the end I had to check out the entire travel guide, region by region。The usual colour glossy format from DK Eyewitness Guides!Sweeping cobwebs from the edges of my mindHad to get away to see what we could findHope the days that lie ahead Vastly more data in this guide than I required, as my visit is just to Marrakesh。 However I particularly enjoyed reading the historical section on Morocco, which then resulted in being drawn into the tribal and cultural sections of the book。 Now I was hooked。 In the end I had to check out the entire travel guide, region by region。The usual colour glossy format from DK Eyewitness Guides!Sweeping cobwebs from the edges of my mindHad to get away to see what we could findHope the days that lie aheadBring us back to where they've ledListen not to what's been said to you。 。。。more

Hmmm, I wasn't overly impressed with this travel guide。 It gave no information whatsoever on pricing, and wasn't that helpful with the logistics of visiting sites overall。 The pictures are beautiful, but when I'm on the ground seeing the real thing that's not what I need。 I'll use this guide as a memory-jog when I'm putting together my photo album from the trip, and I did find it helpful when planning my free time on my tour, but I only give it 3。5 stars。 Hmmm, I wasn't overly impressed with this travel guide。 It gave no information whatsoever on pricing, and wasn't that helpful with the logistics of visiting sites overall。 The pictures are beautiful, but when I'm on the ground seeing the real thing that's not what I need。 I'll use this guide as a memory-jog when I'm putting together my photo album from the trip, and I did find it helpful when planning my free time on my tour, but I only give it 3。5 stars。 。。。more

I did not care for this book。 I found the information to be surface level and lacking any depth。 It was also very specific about trips, etc。 rather than giving general information that any traveler could use。

My confession up front: I LOVE the DK Eyewitness Travel Guides。 While they are not the “End All and Be All” of travel guides for me (I often supplement with other guides, histories and travelogues), I find that the DK guides set me the perfect travel spirit, and give me all that I need to prepare me for the trips I have coming in the future。 I use them as my motivation and aide in developing plans。That confession out of the way, I can easily give the DK Morocco Guide 5 Stars。 It is beautiful!

The pictures and description of the country, history, food and its people are stunning as always。 While I did not use the book much during the 10-day trip I made to Morocco, it devoured it in advance。 It helped me better understand and plan for each day of the adventure。 I found no errors in this guide, but I don’t use it for hotel and restaurant information。If you are going to Morocco, I highly recommend this book to help you plan for, prepare and inspire your trip。 。。。more

Great history lesson。 I was able to decide how best to use the limited time I have for the Moroccan leg of my vacation to compare Muslim history and culture in Morocco to that of the Andalusian region of Spain。

I read this book because I had visited Casablanca, Morocco several years ago (for a work trip) and was interested in revisiting this country again because I enjoyed the food, scenery, and shopping previously。 This book was good, but I had hoped for more discussion about artwork because I felt it was only a brief glance into that subject。 But I did like the discussions about food and ancient sites to see。

A great resource before our 10-day trip to Morocco, although I wish I could have requested certain cities/regions be left out since we don't have time to see them all。 They're all so enticing!! Sigh。 I finally stopped letting myself read about the cities we couldn't fit in。This is the second DK Eyewitness Travel Guide I've used。 These guides do a nice job giving the foreign place a context in history and culture (and modernity, as the pragmatic information at the end is also useful)。 The write-u A great resource before our 10-day trip to Morocco, although I wish I could have requested certain cities/regions be left out since we don't have time to see them all。 They're all so enticing!!

I love these books, they really help you create a very exact travel itinerary。 I never go on guided trips or packaged deals because they herd you around like sheep and you only catch a glimpse of everything, but experience nothing。 With this Morocco book。 My itinerary was done before hand and I tried to follow it as best as I could。 The only thing is that the photographs in the book are magnificent, but sometimes to magnificent。 For instance, in Marrakech, there are ramparts encircling the medin I love these books, they really help you create a very exact travel itinerary。 I never go on guided trips or packaged deals because they herd you around like sheep and you only catch a glimpse of everything, but experience nothing。 With this Morocco book。 My itinerary was done before hand and I tried to follow it as best as I could。 The only thing is that the photographs in the book are magnificent, but sometimes to magnificent。 For instance, in Marrakech, there are ramparts encircling the medina。 There are gate, called babs, which permit you to access the medina。 On of these gates is the bab el-khemis and outside the gate there is the tomb of the seven saints。 I saw the photo and thought cool, and I marked it ads something I definitely wanted to see in Marrakech。 It looked like this was one of the things we were not going to see due to time constraints。 But I insisted and told my wife that I would not leave Marrakech without seeing this tomb。 So i dragged my wife and 7 and 5 year old children across town to see this incredible sight。 To my astonishment, this area of Marrakech was completely run down and filthy。 It seems as if we entered a more local area, something I have always loved to do in trips, but I have never done this with my children in tow and in a country where I only knew about a word in a half。 We got lost and discovered cool things and a very nice textile working family。 All thanks to the misleading photograph pof the tomb of the seven saints。 Explore! 。。。more
