Explore the medina, shop at the souks and tour the grandiose palaces when you visit the intoxicating city of Marrakech, Morocco. Exactly what you’ve always imagined, Marrakech is an exotic cityscape—filled with swirling pungent spices, colorful bazaars and memorizing snake charmers. It’s a magical setting to celebrate your newlywed status.
About an 8 hour flight from NYC, the cheapest time to visit is July through September, but you should try to avoid visiting in the summertime, when the air is dry and the heat is stifling.
