Re: Marocco

Morocco is very, very prepared for Western tourists. Last year I spent a few days in Tangiers, because it was the one part of Morocco I hadn't been to, we took a ferry over from Spain. They have been very busy modernizing the town in expectation of the World Expo they are hosting in 2012. We also took a one day tour to Chefchouan, one of the most touristy places I've been to in the world, and yet, I loved it.
There was the obligatory "folkloric" show and belly dance with couscous dinner. Even though it was Ramadan, many tourists restaurants were serving food, no problem. However, I do believe the Moroccans are among the most aggressive bargainers I've ever dealt with. I would love to go back to Marrakech, it's been years.
