Liked what was on offer, also liked the openess of bartering. Disliked feeling watched whilst shopping, i would have bought more if i was left to look on my own.

The souk is a massive place and you will get lost in there, but don't let that put you off.
There's so much to see, the goods, the people, the colours and smells etc.

Always fun, but can get tiresome with the same merchandise over and over...but must be done
Definately worth a walk through. Just walk to the right so you can see the bikes and the mopeds coming towards you. There is SO much there! Extraordinary! Unless you want to buy ignore all advances!

What an amazing place, as long as you can just say no to those you dont require the services of you will have an amazing time and you can get cheap everything here.

Just has to be visited, barter hard and don't point at the goods on show as the stall holders will be all over you!
You have to be a smart trader too and play the game with the locals. In case a shop owner approach you, and you are not interested, stay calm and friendly but say resolute "NO merci" or "La shukran"
Wao!! amazing place and real experience. The medina of Marrakech is the best of we have seen. The narrow alleys and the colorful hand crafts are something that you need to see and admire. Don't squander time and visit Marrakech and its souks.
Chaotic bustle, you will get lost, but don't worry about it. Just enjoy marvelling at just how many trinkets they can fit into such a small space, and haggling and bantering with the vendors. No MArrakech trip is complete without a souk visit.
