Sniffing out a bargain
The first thing to bear in mind about souks, particularly those with history, is that they’re organised so that the most valuable goods are right in the centre.
In other words, if some old school bling is very much your thing, the gold and jewellery is going to be awaiting your discerning eye at the very heart of the market.
Of course, getting there might not be so simple, not only due to all the distracting other things to look at, but also because there are people every which way, and a few cheeky monkeys clambering about for good measure. If you’re feeling truly lost and a little bit peckish, use your nose. From pastries and doughnuts to fresh fruit and the famous street cuisine of Morocco, don’t be afraid to be sent by the scent when navigating the souk.
