Sometimes I wonder if I should keep buying travel guides in the 20s, but then I come across a guide book like this。。。 It helped me survive Morocco (often without Internet) and plan everything from how to reach the next destination to which dish of a region to try and how to say "thank you" in the Berber language of the Atlas villages。 Precious! Thanks to the editors for keeping it up to date; esp。 the info on how to reach remote places and the prices for taxis, minibuses, etc, have been very use Sometimes I wonder if I should keep buying travel guides in the 20s, but then I come across a guide book like this。。。 It helped me survive Morocco (often without Internet) and plan everything from how to reach the next destination to which dish of a region to try and how to say "thank you" in the Berber language of the Atlas villages。 Precious!

This book explained things, but there is nothing like experiencing Morocco for itself。 It truly is a whole other world!

This is the first Lonely Planet book I've read。 While I found parts of it helpful, I would have liked more overall information on regions, customs and traditions, the country's geography, etc。 This is the first Lonely Planet book I've read。 While I found parts of it helpful, I would have liked more overall information on regions, customs and traditions, the country's geography, etc。 。。。more

My wife and I took out 1 and a half year old son on this trip and it was amazing。 He had fun, the people we met were all so kind and welcoming, and they provided a kids car seat for the long trips。 The car rides have plenty of stops to take pictures so he did not get too restless。 Also, my wife has a gluten allergy and everywhere we went people understood what that meant and we're accommodating。 Our guide was Rashid and he was so fun! Good driver, helpful tour guide, great with our little one!

I found this book to be very helpful in distinguishing the various regions of Morocco; this includes geographic, climatic, cultural, food, costs, and much more。 I can’t wait to visit this mysterious and beautiful region of the world。

We visited so much of Morocco, that we constantly referred to their book for restaurants recommendations as well as sightseeing references and historical references。Guide books probably don’t count as reading but since I probably read this cover to cover to get through our journey in Morocco, I feel like it totally does。It did a good job of explaining the marketplaces in both Fes and Marrakech - the hidden gems through the blue city and contacts on tour companies which you’ll most likely use whi We visited so much of Morocco, that we constantly referred to their book for restaurants recommendations as well as sightseeing references and historical references。Guide books probably don’t count as reading but since I probably read this cover to cover to get through our journey in Morocco, I feel like it totally does。It did a good job of explaining the marketplaces in both Fes and Marrakech - the hidden gems through the blue city and contacts on tour companies which you’ll most likely use while in Morocco。Great guide book。 。。。more

I don't intend to go to Morocco, I was curious about it。 I read it on Amazon Prime reading for the Kindle on my computer。This is not what I was expecting, but I learned some things。 I expected a lot of pictures and more descriptive text。 What I read was mostly how-to and fact-based, which is good, if that's what you're looking for。 It's packed with information for a serious traveler。 If I were going to Morocco, I would probably want this book。 I would pair it with an internet search to make sure I don't intend to go to Morocco, I was curious about it。 I read it on Amazon Prime reading for the Kindle on my computer。This is not what I was expecting, but I learned some things。 I expected a lot of pictures and more descriptive text。 What I read was mostly how-to and fact-based, which is good, if that's what you're looking for。 It's packed with information for a serious traveler。 If I were going to Morocco, I would probably want this book。 I would pair it with an internet search to make sure the information was current。 。。。more

This book gives essential information about travelling in Morocco including solo travellers。 Reading about possible annoyances and false guides experience helped me to enjoy being in Fes on my own without getting into unpleasant situation。 It has curious references to history when describing some certain buildings and mosques。 I spent 2 weeks with this book。 We made around 4k km around the whole country together and it was safe and pleasant experience。

Les guides de voyage vieillissent mal。 Celui-ci, acheté en 2010 pour un voyage qui n'a pas eu lieu mais lu en 2017 quand je suis enfin allé au Maroc, ne fait pas exception, surtout dans un pays se développant rapidement。 On y voit aussi des erreurs (une carte de Rabat indique l'Océan Pacifique sur la côte。。。)。 Mais j'ai bien aimé mon compagnon de voyage。。。 Les guides de voyage vieillissent mal。 Celui-ci, acheté en 2010 pour un voyage qui n'a pas eu lieu mais lu en 2017 quand je suis enfin allé au Maroc, ne fait pas exception, surtout dans un pays se développant rapidement。 On y voit aussi des erreurs (une carte de Rabat indique l'Océan Pacifique sur la côte。。。)。 Mais j'ai bien aimé mon compagnon de voyage。。。 。。。more

Catherine Woodman

I am a fan of the Lonely Planet books--they are more like how I travel, with the exception of the more limited food options than I would include if it were my guidebook--this one is almost 1/2 about the culture and history of Morocco, which was very interesting。

I've used LP guidebooks exclusively for the past 15 years but sadly their failure to translate to a new medium means I have to find another publisher。 This is the second time I've made the mistake of buying one of these guidebooks for Kindle on iPad (the first was the Ireland book) and in both cases I ended up doing all my research online and not using the books。 This is a classic example of a content provider failing to recognize that you can't just cram old platform media into new formats。 Inf I've used LP guidebooks exclusively for the past 15 years but sadly their failure to translate to a new medium means I have to find another publisher。 This is the second time I've made the mistake of buying one of these guidebooks for Kindle on iPad (the first was the Ireland book) and in both cases I ended up doing all my research online and not using the books。 This is a classic example of a content provider failing to recognize that you can't just cram old platform media into new formats。 Information is not laid out in a way that one can locate what you need。。。 example, the Morocco book isn't broken up by geography in the TOC and to find a town you have to flip through all the pages。 Try searching and of course a dozen results come up。 Pages are not well formatted for digital reads, navigation is practically non-existant。 But the worst and most hilarious failure of translation is the maps。 It looks like someone cut up some xeroxed maps into little pieces and pasted them in your iPad。 Where one street gets cut off you have to clip through pages to see where it lands, and to zoom in it's like looking at an enhancement on a photocopier。 It's far more practical to look up info online than to use this book。 BTW the content is fine but if you can't find it, read it, or use it then that doesn't actually matter。 。。。more

Got this one as a digital download, where individual PDF files represented the individual chapters of the book。 Extremely useful on my iPad, for one as it didn't add to my luggage's weight, but also as it allows for searching through the book's text。 Though, because the book is cut up into individual files, it is not possible to do one search on the whole book。 On the downside, the digital download didn't come with the first thirty pages or so, which includes the full color map of the country。 A Got this one as a digital download, where individual PDF files represented the individual chapters of the book。 Extremely useful on my iPad, for one as it didn't add to my luggage's weight, but also as it allows for searching through the book's text。 Though, because the book is cut up into individual files, it is not possible to do one search on the whole book。 On the downside, the digital download didn't come with the first thirty pages or so, which includes the full color map of the country。 Annoying。 And though Lonely Planet has started selling iPad optimized guides for their top destinations, how hard is it to start color coding the maps in their digital downloads? On the plus side, the maps in the book are vector based, which means that zooming in is possible and useful。 Nevertheless, usefulness of the format aside, this guide also seems to suffer from Lonely Planet's spate of carelessness, not putting too many of the markers on the map where they should be。 The touristic highlights are generally easy to find, but the recommended bars and cafes are not so easy to track down on your own, which is where an accurate guide is useful to have。 。。。more

This book went 5 times to Morocco with me, making it my most travelled book :)It has never let me down, and added enourmously to my experience there, as it contains most major sights that I have been to and provided a very much needed cultural and historical background to undestand a sometimes puzzling country。The years have gone by, however, and this particular edition is now obsolete, as I regretfully noticed on my last trip there。

Spent 18 days in Morocco this winter and covered a lot of ground using only this book。 Bus and train time tables were helpful and up-to-date and the historical background for everything was pretty great。 The authors are honest when they don't think a particular city is that interesting or nice, which was helpful in scheduling how much time to spend at any one place。 Provided a nice range of cheap to fancy accommodations, and while I can't confirm the fancy ones, I agreed with their reviews of al Spent 18 days in Morocco this winter and covered a lot of ground using only this book。 Bus and train time tables were helpful and up-to-date and the historical background for everything was pretty great。 The authors are honest when they don't think a particular city is that interesting or nice, which was helpful in scheduling how much time to spend at any one place。 Provided a nice range of cheap to fancy accommodations, and while I can't confirm the fancy ones, I agreed with their reviews of all of the lower-end places I stayed。 Some of the places they list are not on hostelbookers or hostelworld, which was nice when the more well-known places were booked-up。 It has a fair bit of trekking information as well, with trail maps and descriptions。I wasn't that impressed with the pull-out map of Marrakesh, which they advertise as a big selling point, because it was just a larger scale map with not much added (also I lost it!)。 I would also add an extra zero to cab fare estimates to/from anywhere if you're a paleface, even with haggling。Overall a solid, comprehensive guidebook。 。。。more

Found this one pretty helpful on my trip to Morocco this past summer。 A word of advice to vegans/vegetarian/kosher eaters who planning on going: bring lots of your own food。 It's extremely slim pickins and the animal scene ain't pretty! Well worth the trip however- it's a beautiful place。 Found this one pretty helpful on my trip to Morocco this past summer。 A word of advice to vegans/vegetarian/kosher eaters who planning on going: bring lots of your own food。 It's extremely slim pickins and the animal scene ain't pretty!

I still find the Lonely Planet one of the most reliable guidebooks to travel with。 I do check other people's reviews on amazon whenever I buy a travel book, and sometimes I have been convinced that the LP was supposedly not good enough - however, when I bought other guidebooks, there were never quite as good。Sure, oftentimes prives may not be up to date, or people will disagree with restaurant or hotel recs。 I never care about these things anyway。What makes the LP valuable to me is the brief, bu I still find the Lonely Planet one of the most reliable guidebooks to travel with。 I do check other people's reviews on amazon whenever I buy a travel book, and sometimes I have been convinced that the LP was supposedly not good enough - however, when I bought other guidebooks, there were never quite as good。Sure, oftentimes prives may not be up to date, or people will disagree with restaurant or hotel recs。 I never care about these things anyway。What makes the LP valuable to me is the brief, but accurate history of the country it includes, the depth of practical information, and the usually well-structured chapters, each with a selection of highlights at the beginning。Sure, other guides may be prettier, but so far, I've never gone wrong with the LP, and that is true for this edition as well。 (even though it does not manage to describe Marakesh in a way that would have prepared me for being there, but I guess that's too much to ask for anyone。 And it did tell me to get lost on the souks instead of worrying about getting lost - so lost I got, and had tons of fun while I did。)The real recommendation here, is, of course, for Morocco。 No matter which book you use to get there。 。。。more

Your very typical Lonely Planet guide。 I have the Kindle version, which could be better adapted for electronic use。 Especially the maps。 Although it was helpful to have on my phone with the Kindle application。
