If you’re coming to Marrakesh in summer, know that the heat can be unbearable at times. Be ready to invest in an AC and some sunscreen. The people are very hospitable, so don’t be surprised when they offer you tea, which is Morocco’s favorite drink, when you’re simply walking down the street. If you’re a woman, I’m afraid you will have to get used to catcalling! Men feel it an obligation to show their admiration for women walking in front of them.

HELPFUL REPORT

For someone moving here they should know two things. First, it is not a good city for those used to small town life. The rhythm of life is too fast and chaotic to be considered calming and peaceful. Secondly, if they choose to move for studying or working, they should consider the opportunities available here. Mostly, teaching and tourism are the most available job offers. The rest of the fields are all unavailable most of the time.

Marrakesh is known for its hot and dry weather. If you are not quite resistant to these conditions you may have to forget about it. The accommodation expenses can be quite high (depends on the area you choose), but in general it is a beautiful city known as “The Sahara Door”

Marrakesh is a pretty hot city during summer. Motor bikes are the main transportation means in the city. however, there is a sheer lack of cycling lanes in Marrakesh. The outskirts of the city are the go-to destination for most people but it might be a big hustle if one does not have a personal transporting vehicle.
