Features of a holiday in Morocco with children
For example, in Morocco it is best to go with children no younger than 9-10 years. Otherwise, the kids may have problems with acclimatization and nutrition, which will have to carry with them. It should also be noted that this country is absolutely not designed for traveling with a stroller: in pedestrian areas very poor road surface, and housing in the riads is often located on the second floor, where you can climb only on a narrow staircase. As for children's entertainment, they are provided only in large hotels , working on an all-inclusive system. The best hotels in Morocco for holidays with children are Atlantic Palace Hotel 5 *, Iberostar Founty Beach 4 *, Blue Sea Le Tivoli 4 * in Agadir and Mandarin Oriental 5 *, Imperial Plaza 4 *, Kenzi Club Oasis 4 * in Marrakech . There, as a rule, there are playgrounds and swimming pools, there is an opportunity to book a babysitting service.
But the schoolchildren will already be interested in traditional Moroccan entertainment such as safaris or visits to the water park. Yes, and the question of nutrition is much easier: a child of 10 years old, who has long received food from a common table, can eat at a restaurant or a cafe on a par with his parents. The only exception is drinking water - in order to avoid health problems it is better to buy bottled water.
As for restaurants, the page with a children's menu is a rarity for Morocco. But most of the dishes of the Moroccan cuisine are quite edible and tasty. The second dishes are usually cutlets, chicken or meat, cooked on the grill with a garnish of vegetables. Soups, as a rule, serve rather sharp. However, there is always the opportunity to ask the waiter in advance so that too many spices are not added to the children's portion.
