Narrow alleyways opening up into markets. Something new around every corner.\u00a0It&#8217;s like you&#8217;ve stepped back in time. The tricky part is\u00a0finding your way out again.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Chefchaouen<\/strong> is as pretty as the pictures. It&#8217;s also called the &#8216;blue city&#8217;. All the buildings are washed in blue &#8211; originally thought to either keep the mosquitos away or the bad spirits. The best time to really see\u00a0the full impact of the colour is at the crack of dawn before the shops open and spill their wares\u00a0out onto the footpath. I love a good sleep-in, but happily wandered blurry eyed and on my own, with just the stray cats for company.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Moulay Idriss<\/strong> was a surprise. I had never heard of it before. There were no\u00a0other travellers\u00a0and is\u00a0still off the tourist trail. It&#8217;s\u00a0one of the holy places in Morocco and before 2005,\u00a0non-Muslims were not permitted to stay overnight. Narrow alleyways and stairs means you\u00a0walk everywhere with the call to pray echoed throughout\u00a0the town.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t<style type='text\/css'>\n\t\t\t\t#sc_gallery-2 {\n\t\t\t\t\tmargin:

\/>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n<hr \/>\n<h3>What is the public transport like?<\/h3>\n<p>I was impressed by the trains. They are new and tidy and much, much better than Egypt. The overnight train is\u00a0one of the best I&#8217;ve slept on. The system is organised and easy to figure out on your own.<\/p>\n<p>There are smart looking trams in\u00a0Rabat and it&#8217;s an easy process to catch one.\u00a0They were a complete surprise to me.<\/p>\n<p>Taxi&#8217;s&#8230;\u00a0the driving is a little more chaotic than places like the UK, but a good way for getting to all the sights. Find out what companies are better before your visit. I seem to remember that the red taxi&#8217;s in Casablanca are good? I took a few on my own and found them fine. Except, Murphy&#8217;s Law, after a long day sightseeing, I suddenly couldn&#8217;t find a single free taxi to take me home! It was a loooong walk along busy and dusty roads before I found one.<\/p>\n<p>I have heard that the main tourist areas have great trains, while the lesser known areas involve\u00a0long journeys by bus.<\/p>\n<h3>How should I dress?<\/h3>\n<p>It&#8217;s best to dress on the more conservative side with covered shoulders and knees. I find it encourages the local men to be more respectful. Plus you are showing respect to the locals, as\u00a0Morocco is a Muslim country.\u00a0But saying that, I saw females wearing\u00a0singlets the majority of the time, and they weren&#8217;t overly bothered. It seems to be slightly more relaxed than other muslim countries.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t<style type='text\/css'>\n\t\t\t\t#sc_gallery-3 {\n\t\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\t#sc_gallery-3 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\t\twidth: 99.99%;\n\t\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\t#sc_gallery-3 img {\n\t\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\t#sc_gallery-3 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\t\/* see sc_gallery() in functions\/theme-shortcodes.php *\/\n\t\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='sc_gallery-3' class='gallery galleryid-1605 gallery-columns-1 gallery-size-full none'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t\t<img width=\"1000\" height=\"664\" src=\"http:\/\/travellingk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Morocco.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"http:\/\/travellingk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Morocco.jpg 1000w, http:\/\/travellingk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Morocco-300x199.jpg 300w, http:\/\/travellingk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Morocco-768x510.jpg 768w, http:\/\/travellingk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Morocco-220x146.jpg 220w, http:\/\/travellingk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Morocco-50x33.jpg 50w, http:\/\/travellingk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Morocco-113x75.jpg 113w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n<h3>Why go on a tour?<\/h3>\n<p>While Morocco is safer and more relaxed than other countries I&#8217;ve visited, it&#8217;s a country where solo females can sometimes be bothered. I wanted to relax and enjoy my surroundings, rather than be on guard the entire time. Plus, sometime it just gets <em>lonely<\/em> travelling on your own. I enjoy <a href=\"http:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/nz\/morocco\/north-morocco-adventure-100918\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Intrepid Travel<\/a>, because it&#8217;s focus is on the country and the locals. I came\u00a0away feeling like I&#8217;d experienced something more than if I&#8217;d travelled solo. I would not have taking an overnight train. I would\u00a0never have made it to\u00a0Moulay Idriss or seen the Roman ruins. And I would not have learnt about the Berbers!<\/p>\n<h3>What is a hammam?<\/h3>\n<p>Have you experienced a hammam? It&#8217;s also called a Turkish bath and every hammam seems to have a\u00a0slightly different system. Basically, you sit in a steaming room, are covered in black soap and scrubbed extremely clean. \u00a0There are male and women entrances. It&#8217;s best\u00a0to go to a local hamman to get the proper\/embarrassing\u00a0experience, plus they are VERY affordable. And go before the rush of locals. You are expected to be completely nude, but I struggle with this cultural aspect, so wear a bikini\u00a0bottom&#8230; one day I might be brave. Once your skin has softened from the steam, you are scrubbed thoroughly with a rough textured mitten covered in black soap. I&#8217;m surprised at the amount of dead skin and dirt that comes away, and from the expression on the staff, she was\u00a0surprised too. You&#8217;re then dowsed in water and sent pink and clean back into the dusty streets.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1615\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1615\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-1615 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/travellingk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSC00209_SM-1024x680.jpg\" width=\"1024\" height=\"680\" srcset=\"http:\/\/travellingk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSC00209_SM-1024x680.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/travellingk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSC00209_SM-300x199.jpg 300w, http:\/\/travellingk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSC00209_SM-768x510.jpg 768w, http:\/\/travellingk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSC00209_SM-220x146.jpg 220w, http:\/\/travellingk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSC00209_SM-50x33.jpg 50w, http:\/\/travellingk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSC00209_SM-113x75.jpg 113w, http:\/\/travellingk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSC00209_SM.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-1615\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cats are everywhere<\/p><\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Writing about this makes me want to go again,\u00a0right now.
