Perhaps the latest “buzz” in Morocco tourism has been the development of “Riads” in Marrakech and Fes. These traditional homes have been renovated into lovely “boutique hotels” and offer a wonderful stay in Morocco. But how do you choose the best riad to stay in?

Tripadvisor?
Over the past few years, many of our Morocco clients have contacted us regarding riads that are listed high on Tripadvisor. From our experience, tripadvisor is a good resource for planning your trip, BUT IT IS NOT THE ONLY SOURCE. Just because a riad is ranked high on tripadvisor does not mean it is the best for your Morocco Tour. There are some riads that are very plain or in a “poor” location that are ranked well. Make sure you check multiple sites for gathering information on riads.

One of the comments that we have received from some past clients is how many stairs there are in the traditional riads. They have asked if we had any accessible riads? Most of our Morocco tours are featured for all travelers, however, stairs have been a problem. We have recently found a great blog that features accessible travel in Morocco.

Please take a look at the new blog: www.moroccoaccessibletravel.com This new site is devoted to information to help travels who have accessible travel needs. From sites to accommodations, this blog is an excellent source of information. Daniella is living in Marrakech and is constantly adding new information and developing the niche market of accessible travel in Morocco. (Read More…)
