Q. I am going to Marrakech this month. I want to be respectful of the culture. I will wear long cotton skirts and cover my shoulders but Do I need to cover my collar bone? I am not on about showing cleavage! Also does my 2 year old daughter need to cover her shoulders and knees aswell? Thank you. A. Your 2 year old daughter can dress as prettily as you want.Many little girls wear sunfrocks and shorts, so no dress code for her. In fact small Moroccan girls are dressed delightfully.They always look wonderful. This is not Indonesia where even the babies wear hijab. For you, if you want to wear one button undone and a little bit of collar bone shows, thats ok. But, as you say, not cleavage. The fashion here is to wear a tight long sleeved tee shirt under the sunfrock. This , of course, is for out in the street.I n the hotel, or the house, you can wear what you like. The most marvellous garment to wear in the heat is the djellabah. Now you can get shortish sleeved ones that are in wonder...

Q. We're going to Marakech for a cultural break. I am not one to sit by the pool so want to be kept busy with lots of interesting things and want to see/experience the best of Marakech. I am a foodie so any good restaurant suggestions? We are staying in a hotel situated in Bab Doukkala. Also are there any good clubs for gay couples?Is there anything we should avoid doing? A. There is so much to do in Marrakech! It's to my opinion the funnest place in Morocco. You should definitely take a picture with a snake or/and a monkey =) Also try snail soup, sounds dirty huh, but once you even smell it you'll think different. A thing you should definitely eat is Harira, a soup to. That's so nice and you can get it almost every were. If you want the nicest harira go to a restaurant where they are specialized. You'll know it because they have a huge pan usually where you can see em. and before you go, be prepared for the heat Marrakech is one of the hottest places in Morocco. ...

Q. I was planning on visiting Morocco this summer and the hotel that appears in the movie amazed me! Sooo do you know its name? A. Parts of the film were shot in various locations and hotels around Marrakech, including the Mandarin Oriental (which I don't think is open yet) and the Amanjena. I think both will be VERY busy and expensive after people see the film, but there are lots of equally beautiful hotels and even better riads very reasonably priced in Marrakech. Enjoy yourself! How is Marrakech, Morocco for a single man? Q. I was thinking about visiting Marrakech, Morocco. Does anyone have any advice on where to stay and what to do? A. I actually go to Morocco at least once a year, every year, travelling alone and have no problems what-so-ever. There are many historical sights in the centre of Marrakech: Koutoubia Mosque, Bahia Palace (former palace), Palais el Baadi (old ruins), Saadian Tombs (tombs of former rulers), Medersa Ben Yousef (former Islamic school), Jardin d...

Q. I live in Poole, Dorset and my boy and I would like to have a cheap long weekend away at the end of January or early February. We could fly from Bournemouth or Southampton airport ideally. We would like somewhere where hotel accomodation and food and drink is reasonable as well as the flight costs. A. Cracow! Very nice city to visit, absolutely lovely. Similar to Prague. Flights are with easyjet from Bornemouth and approx. 30 quid return per person. Fly out on the 12th, 17th or 19th Jan and return on the 15th or 22nd. http://www.skyscanner.net Alternatively you can fly from London to Berlin for roughly the same price, also with easyjet. The advantage here is that flights are daily, you are not so restricted on the flight dates. Yet another alternative would be to fly from London to Marrakech for 80 quid return per person. Fly out on the 17th or 18th Jan and come back on the 21st. Also easyjet. It is more expensive, but you would be going somewhere slightly warmer... What is there ...
