How to choose among the thousands of shops, stores, and souk stalls? And how to even find them in this labyrinthine city, where street names and addresses seldom appear on the city map? Let Susan Simon guide you through the winding alleys, hidden courtyards, and bustling markets to uncover the best of the treasures of Marrakech: luxurious caftans; bejeweled shoes and slippers; ethnic jewelry; handmade decorative objects for the home; beautifully embroidered linens; colorful ceramics; sequined antique shawls; gold-encrusted glassware. The stylish author and the photographer (who has appeared on the world’s best-dressed list) both have dozens of ideas of how to incorporate your exotic finds into every wardrobe and home. The guide is divided into seven separate walks–and little bonus walks–that take you through the main shopping areas, using the author’s precise directions and visual landmarks. And, as a caterer and cookbook author, Simon can’t resist pointing out her favorite spots for everything from mint tea and pastries to fragrant tagines–many hidden behind innocuous entrances and set in ancient, verdant riads (traditional Moroccan courtyard homes) or on terraces overlooking the breathtaking city.

Having shopping in Marrakech once, and planning to go back some day, this book gives lots of great shopping tips to help you navigate the chaotic and confusing souks. I love the energy of the souks, but it does get tiring to find what you want, if you want high quality and you want to pay a fair price. I don't haggle people to the last dime. I realize I will pay more and that's okay. But I do want quality in return for my money and want to buy from good sellers.I think it's funny the review gave me ratings for a novel! I say "full of surprises" as this book should be -- it tells you about shopping options you wouldn't have known about from typical tourist travel books. It's actually on my living room coffee table so I can pick it up and leaf through it and plan ideas for a future Moroccan adventure.
Marrakesh is a bustling city and far more hectic than, say, Fez or Tangiers. The Souk sellers range from polite to quite aggressive and for many of the vendors, you are hounded by them after taking a second look at an item. This book was a lifesaver in ferreting out the quality places, merchandise that is a cut above, and sellers who were far more respectful than the norm. Her directions are fairly easy to follow and the shopping at the referenced shops much more productive than random wanderings. We took all but one of the trips, and each was a joy - both for the items bought and the paths followed. Her recommendation for a tailor, for example, was outstanding, but not a place that looked at all promising from the outside. There were a number of shops that didn't seem worth a look until entering.Don't leave home without it - it is well worth the price.
This is such a lovely book. I have it by my bed to look through when I'm wanting colorful ideas and to see how creative the homeowners in Marrakech are. It's a book I will cherish for many years to come. Good quality paper & images as well even though it's printed in China.I recommend this book for people interested in Moroccan design & creative play within ones home.
This is a small book packed with information about shopping in Marrakech. It is broken down into walking tours of the various souks, what and where to shop, where to stop for tea or pastry and where to stop for lunch or dinner. Wonderful pictures of the goods to be found, whether you can use credit cards or need cash, and something about the proprietor, artist or craftsman.
It is a very cute and fun book to read even if you are not going to Marrakech but if you are thinking of going like we are and love the local cultural and craft shopping then this book is for you.This book walks you through a maze and gets you to interesting places one after another.I can see myself using this book to guide me to places that I would want to go to which are not in usual tour guide books.If you like shops like Anthropology like I do then this is like an Anthropology book.
I took this guide to Marrakech with me, and wandered the souk with it in hand. It is easy to find the shops listed; the information is accurate; and I came home with much more than I would have purchased without the book! Highly recommended.
Very interesting. Gave us the courage to prowl the souk and it was helpful.
A must have when shopping in Marrakech . However , the shops mentioned are only the tip of an iceberg. Marrakech is vast . Unfortunately/fortunately most of these shops have no telephone number or internet. So one needs to visit in person.
