Book Reviews of The Rough Guide to Morocco

Book Review: Great Guide Book
Summary: 5 Stars

I bought this book a couple of months before my trip to Morocco at the beginning of 2009. Even though this book was published in late 2007, the prices and information are still accurate. I decided to purchase the rough guide because my previous experience with a Lonely Planet guide book left me broke (underestimated prices) and with inaccurate information.

The Rough Guide to Morocco contained a lot of practical information, great advice for food, lodging and activities; the prices were accurate every time. The historical and anecdotal comments within the text are very helpful and useful, not too much, but a great way to further your understanding of what you are seeing, especially if you aren't the type to find tour guides everywhere you go.

I highly recommend this book, and if you are thinking of traveling to Morocco soon, don't be afraid to buy this book because it was published in 2007, you'll still find it very accurate now. (Just as a side note, two women traveling alone in Morocco isn't the best idea, you won't be in danger, but prepare for major, almost debilitating harassment)

Summary of The Rough Guide to Morocco

From the Meditteranean coast, through four mountain ranges, to the empty sand and scrub of the Sahara, explore this extraordinary country with The Rough Guide to Morrocco. This fully-revised 8th edition contains insider tips and colour sections on architecture, markets, shopping, festivals and music, plus expanded coverage of Marrakesh. The full- colour section introduces the best Morrocco has on offer from the blue-washed walls of Chefchaouen to the vibrant craft displays of the souks. You?ll find evocative accounts of all the main sights including Casablanca?s Art Deco architecture to the unique Djemaa El Fna in Marrakesh, and the ancient monuments of Fes as well as practical information on trekking in the High Atlas, surfing on the Atlantic coast and camel-riding in the desert. Be inspired by dozens of photos and explore every corner with the clearest maps of any guide.

The Rough Guide to Morrocco is like having a local friend plan your trip!
