First Time in MARRAKECH MOROCCO: Food, Souks, Culture, and Nightlife

In episode 13 of our Morocco Vlog we explore must see sights, food & things to do in the Red City of Marrakesh, including the Medina & Souks, Jemma el-Fnaa, Bahia Palace, Ben Youssef Madrasa, Koutoubia Mosque & Jardin Majorelle Gardens.

We begin with a morning walking tour of the historic sites, including a stop at Mechoui Alley, where our Morocco Travel Guide shows us how the locals cook lamb (heads & all) in underground ovens.

We then wander through the bustling Old Marrakesh Medina, full of crafts & spices, traditional riads, delicious maroc street food, and colourful souks filled with local treasures.

Later in the day, we escape the hustle and bustle of the Medina with a visit to the unique gardens and cacti at Jardin Majorelle Gardens.

As the sun sets, we immerse ourselves in the lively chaos of Jemaa el-Fnaa square, where the heart of Marrakech comes alive with music, street food, and culture. Lydia may even join the locals for a dance.

If you love immersive travel experiences, historic cities, markets and music then this video on our Morocco road trip is perfect for you.

🌍 Hi, we're Lydia & Chris, the Roving Balys!

🌍As an empty nest couple from Newcastle, Australia, we've traveled the world together for 30 years. We started this vlog to share our travel tales and showcase our beautiful region. We met traveling around Europe in 1995 and have since visited 50+ countries. We love discovering new places, meeting people, and trying local cuisines (including gluten-free options).Our journey has evolved from backpacking to family travel, and now back to couple adventures. With the kids doing their own thing, we're ready to dust off our backpacks (now suitcases) and start new adventures. So grab a cup of coffee and come roving with us!
