Was Sie wirklich brauchen, was zu Hause bleiben kann, und vier Dinge, die viele vergessen und die wir gerne dabei hätten.
Pack lighter than you think. Morocco has water, soap, sunscreen, and pharmacies. What you cannot easily replace is the right shoe, the right adapter, and a warm layer in winter.
Clothing. Layers, always. Daytime in spring and autumn is 22-28°C in Marrakech and 18-25°C in the desert; nights drop 10-15°C. Bring one warm fleece or jacket regardless of season — desert nights are cold even in summer (down to 12°C in August). Cotton or linen for daytime. A long-sleeved shirt and long pants for at least one outfit; you'll appreciate it in the medina and at religious sites. Women: a light scarf is useful for impromptu mosque visits and for cool desert evenings; not strictly required anywhere except inside active mosques.
Shoes. Closed walking shoes for medinas (cobbles, donkeys, leather workshops) and the camel ride. Sandals for the riad and the beach. Skip heels.
Sun. Sunscreen SPF 30 minimum, a wide-brim hat or shemagh, sunglasses. The sun in the desert is genuinely punishing.
Power. Type C/E plug — same as continental Europe. Bring an adapter if you're coming from the UK, US, or anywhere else. A power bank is useful in the desert where camp electricity may run only at certain hours.
Documents. Passport (six months validity beyond your travel dates), one photocopy in a separate bag. Travel insurance documents printed.
The four things most travellers forget: a refillable water bottle (huge plastic waste otherwise), a small headlamp or phone flashlight (medina alleys after dark, desert tents at night), wet wipes (long road days, no easy washing), and a tiny first aid kit with imodium and rehydration salts.
