An 'Eating Out' section provides information on where to go and what the local specialities are. For those wishing to explore beyond the city, a number of excursions are suggested; for an escape from the hustle and bustle of the souks, a day trip to the old fishing port of Essaouira for some fresh sea air makes a welcome change or for cooler temperatures and wonderful walking head to the Ourika Valley in the foothills of the High Atlas Mountains. Insightful cultural advice on sacred storks and mint tea gives you a deeper understanding of the city's heritage.
