Think I recommended Fez. Perhaps ask the ballon pilot to take you to Fez, spend the day in the Medina there. You won't regret it |  | | |

Marrakesh is world famous for its market/bazaar/souk.
Don't buy anything made from camel skin. It smells, and even after 2 years the smell won't have gone away.
Morocco is also famous for its hash. |  |

I was speaking from experience, but as that experience comes from the 1970's I guess things have changed somewhat. | |

From the 70,s I imagine that was wild enough? I actually never been to Marrakesh, but I spent a good bit of time in Chefchouen in the 90,s. I'm not sure about now, but you use to have to pass through a army checkpoint on your way up to it but once passed that it you were in serious quality hashish country | | | |

First night was in Tangiers - it's where the airport was.
Went for a short walk around the market and stopped off at an English bar - every city has them - and met an english guy flying back the next day. He offered me about 2oz for a fiver as he couldn't take it with him. Compared to UK it was an amazing deal, but not in Morocco. It lasted for the whole fortnight. I gave away what was left on my last night.
On arrival back at Gatwick, it took almost an hour for our bags to arrive at the baggage carousel. I guess the sniffer dogs had been all over it. | |

Good luck with the balloon ride. We did one in the Masai Mara which was spectacular as we flew at treetop level. Unfortunately we landed on a termite hill and the basket was tipped on to its side and dragged along for about 50 yards. Scary but no real damage done. |  | | |
