Ultimate MARRAKESH Street Food Market Tour | Morocco 4K Travel Vlog

There’s nowhere in Morocco like the Jemaa el-Fna square – no place that so effortlessly involves you and keeps you coming back for more. I have been to Marrakech 3 times now and I still come back and visit this place every time. Jemaa el-Fna is located in the medina quarter of #Marrakesh. The square is open daily and things typically get going early morning and continue until at least midnight.

By day, most of the square is just a big open space. In the morning, stall owners set up their stands selling fresh orange juice, spices, traditional medicines, mint leaves, and snails. Definitely try the fresh squeezed orange juices, its so sweet and refreshing. The flutes of snake charmers drift across the square, monkey trainers entertain the crowd, and the Berber musicians will create a show but of course only if you pay them. Be careful when taking photos! Always ask for permission to avoid argueing with snake charmers, monkey trainers, and the singers as they may demand a lot of money. But do support the locals by tipping them off with around 10 - 20 Dirhams per photo ( do negotiate beforehand).

The best time to visit this square is just before sunset. Once the sun sets, Jemaa el-Fna really comes alive. The crowd gets bigger and the Restaurants around the square start serving hungry customers delicious #streetfood as they stroll around this bustling square. Even if you don’t eat at them, you should at least wander down the makeshift lane of foodstalls on the Jemaa el Fna, which look great in the evening, lit by lanterns. Check out the hyperlapse footage I created! As well as couscous, tagine and pastilla, there are spicy merguez sausages, chicken and beef kebabs,  harira soup, salads, fried fish, and calamari. For the more adventurous why not try a sheep's head complete with eyes. Check out stall number 10 and the crew!

Marrakech is full of fun loving people and they certainly know how to entertain. Especially if you're from India, Pakistan or Bangladesh, they will serenade you with their Bollywood music skills and call you Shah Rukh Khan, Amir Khan and Salman khan!
