Morocco Travel Review: Marrakech, Luxury Camp, Desert, Cooking Class, 11-Day Trip

It was a lot of driving and I may have planned a bit more downtime or maybe more stops along the way. Perhaps we could have taken day trips from a base in Marrakech instead of staying in a different hotel every night, but that would involve doubling back, so the logistics would not be as efficient. I would pack fewer clothes to make living out of a suitcase easier.

The bathrooms in some of the accommodations were not up to standard. The riad shower sprayed all over the bathroom and the sink faucet was loose. The toilet in the desert camp leaked all over the floor. The bathroom in Marrakech was very small and cramped.

Also, in Marrakech, it would have been better if we'd stayed at the same accommodation where we had the cooking class and hammam. Although we loved our location in the main square and proximity to restaurants, it was difficult to get to the other location for our day there and we were late to the class.

I'm wondering if there may have been a higher-end, smaller luxury camp in the desert. The one we stayed in was OK, but the tent was very cold, despite having a heater, the food was mediocre, and it looked like it could use an overall refresh.

Another suggestion would be to have the agency recommend appropriate tipping guidelines for various services. We found useful info on the internet, but it would have been nice to understand in advance what was expected.
