So Bristol Airport is really starting to fly out to new places as previously you couldn't fly from Bristol to Agadir however now you can for easily under £80 return per person! I love using budget airlines for short getaways - cheaper flights means m...
Cheap Flights from Bristol to Agadir
We chose to park at the airport (which was fortunate as this was in the middle of a snow storm so there is no way public transport would have worked!), as always if i drive to the airport, parting at the Silver Zone is cheap and easy- usually working...
Airport Parking- Silver Zone
Where we stayed was only about a 15/20 minute transfer from the Airport, you can often arrange these with your airline if you book as a package holiday. If not there is often taxis outside!! i was lucky enough that as my mum was already out there, sh...
Airport Transfer- Taxi or Private
I loved our time at the hotel, even though we went in January which was off peak season (#ballingonabudget) there was still evening entertainment and things on during the day! The staff genuinely cannot help you enough- whether that is moving a chair...
ARGANA Hotel
Day Trips
Hands down, beat all expectations! We were able to book this directly with the hotel and it was incredible, the camels were so well looked after (there were even a couple of baby camels that walked along just because), the views were mesmerizing and ...
Camel ride in agadir at sunset with barbecue and couscous
GO JUST BEFORE SUNSET! This was unlike anything I expected, we went just before sunset so got to see the view out over the port and Agadir in day light and then again as it got dark, the cable car going over the big windy road in the dark looked amaz...
Cable car ride to the historic Kasbah Oufella fortress.
Seeing the pictures of this from people that had been, I really wish we had been able to squish this into our short holiday!
I wish I did...Paradise Valley & Atlas Mountains Adventure
Not so much a day trip, but I loved being able to wander down to the beach which was just a short walk through a little market. As I am a January baby, it was amazing to finally be able to go into the sea on my birthday… the water wasn't warm but it ...
Agadir Beaches
Food
This is right on the seafront and is the perfect stop if you're strolling along during the day! The food was incredible, I went with a simpe pasta dish as im not hugely a foody but my mum had the vegetable tagine which looked and smelled phenomenal! ...
LE NIL BLEU
Great Atmosphere, Great menu and Great Prices! I was so shocked at how cheap the meal for our group was, because it certainly didn't taste cheap! The food here was lovely, the staff were so friendly and everyone is so talkative! Read the reviews on t...
LE MAXWELL,
I wish I could remember the name of this place, they are just a short walk from the hotel, right by one of the corner shops with red and white decor and a couple of cats around. I would have completely walked past it if I hadnt been recommended to tr...

Tips
Tipping is very much a thing in Morroco so be prepared to tip on your meals and day trips! some companies arrange a collective group tip on day trips to ease the stress but we found just giving a little extra was always appreciated! I think it is rou...
Tipping Etiquette
This is no set rule, however for both me and my fiance- we took £400 between us for 5 days and this was more than enough for meals (we went with only breakfast included) and shopping etc however what we didnt know was that you cant take Dirhams home ...
Travel Budget
We were advised to only take the Orange taxis and found that 20 Dirham got you most places! However, the roads are crazy- I have never been in such busy and chaotic traffic where somehow no one crashes! trying to get a taxi is such a weird experience...
Taxis in Morocco
We found that modesty rules were not too strict here, at least for tourist however I would generally stay on the side of caution and make sure you have some more modest outfits if you're going to be out and about!
