This is a vibrant, busy market & a must if in Marrakesh. You need to be aware of what you are paying & what you want. Haggling is a must. Do not accept the first price - go half price (or more) & haggle to what you want to pay. If they don’t accept your offers, move on as lots of shops sell similar items. Be wary of the street food/fish/meat/water etc as it can make tourists unwell. It’s easy to get lost - keep Jemaa-el-Fnaa (main market square) as your bearing. We did not experience any issues there…no pickpocketing etc, but be vigilant. I recommend not being ‘shown where to go’ by locals as this will lead to a ‘friends shop’ where there will be a strong expectation to buy something of high value. It can be difficult to get away without a purchase. Taxis’ will also divert into friends shops - be vigilant. Nb: I would recommend the ‘Le Jardin secret’ (see my other review) whist in the Souks.
Definitely need to visit and shop here when visiting Marrakech. Highly recommend visiting multiple shops if you are shopping for a specific item/souvenirs. Definitely recommend haggling at every shop you are at. A lot of the vendors sell the same/similar items so recommended finding/getting the best price. Also, knowing a few words in Arabic and/or French is helpful.
Surreal experience to see the Souks Market in Marrakesh. It is like stepping back in time and seeing how it was in the 11th century. If you’re travelling to Marrakesh you must visit the market.
If you go early, you can walk calmly and do shopping. After 10:30 there are so many people, motorcyclist, bikers and donkeys! Be careful to motor, they are very fast and not caring. Do bargain but not too much as for a european it is not a very expensive place, they need to earn their life as well 😉
I was on holiday in Marrakesh and visited the Souk Market. It was overall a great experience, a mixture of scents, food, colours, spices, art, clothes, handmade pieces etc. It’s packed with tourists and locals, vendors are sometimes on you, literally, trying to sell you anything. Plenty of little restaurants, tea/coffee shops.
