Marrakesh is magic — but it’s also a sensory whirlwind that no one quite prepares you for. From navigating the souks to discovering rooftop oases, here’s everything I wish I’d known before my first trip. Expect hidden gems, culture shocks, style tips, and soulful moments that will stay with you long after you’ve left the medina.
