The Experience

“You see those walls?” our guide asked as we rolled into Taroudant, pointing at the sun-baked ramparts stretching around the city. The streets were already buzzing—kids weaving through bikes, old men chatting under the arcades of Assarag Square, and the air full of that mix of spices and fresh bread you only get in Moroccan markets. We ducked into the Berber souk where every corner seemed to have its own rhythm: metalworkers tapping away, piles of woven baskets stacked high, and someone always calling out a greeting in Arabic or French.

The drive out to Tiout felt quieter, with red ocher houses scattered across the hills and goats sometimes blocking the road. By midday, we were sitting down to lunch with a local family—flatbread still warm from the fire, olives on tiny plates, and sweet mint tea poured high so it bubbled in the glass. Our host laughed when we tried to copy his pouring style; I think he was being polite about our attempts.

After eating, we had a choice: walk or ride donkeys through Tiout’s palm grove. I picked walking—needed to stretch after all that food—and wandered under tall palms while kids waved from behind stone walls. The kasbah on the hill looked straight out of a movie (turns out part of Ali Baba was filmed here), with views that switched between green palms and dry hills depending on which way you turned. By late afternoon, my shoes were dusty but my phone was full of photos I knew I’d want to show off later.
