Tizi n Test Pass, a breath taking drive through the High Atlas Mountains Morocco
helped us discover the famous - or infamous - Tizi n Test Pass, a breath taking drive through the High Atlas Mountains Morocco . A breathtaking drive snakes through the fantastic scenery to an incredible 2092 metres. Dont miss visiting Tinmal mosque on the way - its only one of two open to non muslims in Morocco.
If you want to experience the Tizi n Test and Tinmal mosque in safe and competent hands, then we recommend you contact Morocco Explorers by visiting their website morocco-explorers.com
Morocco Explorers operate tours and holidays to the must see attractions and then beyond so you can experience authentic local culture and truly outstanding landscapes.
Their unique concept allows you to escape the tourist trail or as they say dont be a tourist - be an explorer. We at the Morocco Tourist Guide did and we have the videos to prove it!
MOROCCO
During the middle of winter, I drove to Minneapolis and took a one-way ticket to Marrakech. That was the beginning of an insane trip around one of the most unique countries i've ever visited. Every day was filled with new food and experiences. I stayed in the country for one month and then took a ferry over to Spain. It was when i was in Spain when i really realized how crazy Morocco was.

TRAVELcandies On Tour - Natural Wonders - MOROCCO [4K]
Morocco stands for adventures, great landscapes and the beginning of the Sahara desert. Millions of travelers are visiting this beautiful, north african country year over year and even we explored Morocco by our own for the very first time.
Away from all the tourism, we conquered the Grand Atlas mountain range in central Morocco, we drove the Tizi N'Tazazert trail and many others with our JEEP Wrangler, visited the Dades and Thodra gorges and spent romantic nights in oases, filled with millions of palms. Our highlight of course has been the Erg Chegaga desert (which is a predecessor of the Sahara...WOW! :)
We also met some offroaders, riding the dunes with their trucks or smaller offroad vehicles.
Morocco is worth a dozen visits and for sure, we'll come back...better prepared, with a better setup and with much more time.
December is a good time to travel to Morocco, the temperatures are between 14-18 degree in the lower heights, but in the Atlas they can decrease down to -8°.
If you`re blogger too and in need of a good internet connection, search for a Maroc Telekom shop in one of the bigger nothern cities like Tetouan, Meknes or Fes.
The unlimited internet (LTE) will cost you 20€ for one month (2016) and it works better, than we thought
(and better than in germany... no joke :D)
Exception of course are the Atlas mountains, but even there ya'll get internet in some areas.
Our recommendations for a short visit of 14 days are:
.Fes
.Meknes
.Grand Atlas and Anti Atlas
.Gorge Du Dades
.Gorge Du Thodra
.Zagora
.Erg Chegaga (the predecessor of the Sahara)
.Tizi N'Tazazert Trail
(only recommended for stronger cars, beginning with a SUV, better a real offroader)
Tipp for your ticket buy, if you wanna get a ferry from Algeciras to Ceuta:
At Carlos [36.17920, -5.44124] you will get your ferry tickets. They're preparing all the documents for you (fiches etc) and you can reserve your ferry for a desired day in advance. Time of departure doesn't matter, which is great!
The guys there are very friendly and helpfull and with some luck you'll get a cut in price
(we paid 180€, instead of 190€ for 2 persons and our JEEP)
Tipp for not wasting your time at the border control:
You will see many people standing at the border, asking you for your passports. They're wearing standard clothes and offer their help. DO NOT ASK THEM AND DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR MONEY OR YOUR PASSPORTS!
These guys are not official (even if they say) and we spoke to several officers at the border.
They definitely will steal your time and later on asking you for money (they are really penetrant!)
The Morocco border is a border like any other...just drive through like you would do anywhere else and you'll find your way. These guys are more disturbing than they would be of help and it costs much more of your time!
If you feel offended or bothered: speak to one of the officers and they will get rid of them

Morocco - Marrakech 2018 4K
Marrakesh (/məˈrækɛʃ/ or /ˌmærəˈkɛʃ/; Arabic: مراكش Murrākuš; Berber languages: ⴰⵎⵓⵔⴰⴽⵓⵛ Meṛṛakec), also known by the French spelling Marrakech, is a major city of the Kingdom of Morocco. It is the fourth largest city in the country, after Casablanca, Fez and Tangier.[3] It is the capital city of the mid-southwestern region of Marrakesh-Safi. Located to the north of the foothills of the snow-capped Atlas Mountains, Marrakesh is situated 580 km (360 mi) southwest of Tangier, 327 km (203 mi) southwest of the Moroccan capital of Rabat, 239 km (149 mi) south of Casablanca, and 246 km (153 mi) northeast of Agadir.
Marrakesh is possibly the most important of Morocco's four former imperial cities. The region has been inhabited by Berber farmers since Neolithic times, but the actual city was founded in 1062, by Abu Bakr ibn Umar, chieftain and cousin of Almoravid king Yusuf ibn Tashfin. In the 12th century, the Almoravids built many madrasas (Koranic schools) and mosques in Marrakesh that bear Andalusian influences. The red walls of the city, built by Ali ibn Yusuf in 1122–1123, and various buildings constructed in red sandstone during this period, have given the city the nickname of the Red City or Ochre City. Marrakesh grew rapidly and established itself as a cultural, religious, and trading centre for the Maghreb and sub-Saharan Africa; Jemaa el-Fnaa is the busiest square in Africa.
After a period of decline, the city was surpassed by Fez, but in the early 16th century, Marrakesh again became the capital of the kingdom. The city regained its preeminence under wealthy Saadian sultans Abu Abdallah al-Qaim and Ahmad al-Mansur, who embellished the city with sumptuous palaces such as the El Badi Palace (1578) and restored many ruined monuments. Beginning in the 17th century, the city became popular among Sufi pilgrims for Morocco's seven patron saints, who are entombed here. In 1912 the French Protectorate in Morocco was established and T'hami El Glaoui became Pasha of Marrakesh and held this position nearly throughout the duration of the protectorate until the role was dissolved upon independence of Morocco and the reestablishment of the monarchy in 1956. In 2009, Marrakesh mayor Fatima Zahra Mansouri became the second woman to be elected mayor in Morocco.
Like many Moroccan cities, Marrakesh comprises an old fortified city packed with vendors and their stalls (the medina, a UNESCO World Heritage Site), bordered by modern neighbourhoods, the most prominent of which is Gueliz. Today it is one of the busiest cities in Africa and serves as a major economic centre and tourist destination. Tourism is strongly advocated by the reigning Moroccan monarch, Mohammed VI, with the goal of doubling the number of tourists visiting Morocco to 20 million by 2020. Despite the economic recession, real estate and hotel development in Marrakesh has grown dramatically in the 21st century. Marrakesh is particularly popular with the French, and numerous French celebrities own property in the city. Marrakesh has the largest traditional market (souk) in Morocco, with some 18 souks selling wares ranging from traditional Berber carpets to modern consumer electronics. Crafts employ a significant percentage of the population, who primarily sell their products to tourists. Marrakesh is one of North Africa’s largest centres of wildlife trade, despite the illegality of much of this trade. Much of this trade can be found in the medina and adjacent squares. Tortoises are particularly popular for sale as pets but Barbary macaques and snakes can also be seen.
