Marrakech has experienced a considerable rise in the number of visitors in 2023, as Morocco continues to promote its tourism sector and recover its performance as it exits the COVID-19 pandemic.
The red city witnessed a 63% increase in tourist visits in May, compared to the same period in 2019, according to official data.

The rise was helped by the recovery of national and international tourism as the social and economic effects of COVID-19 start to subside, as well as the historic performance by Morocco’s national team at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
In May, travel booking website Marrakech Best Of warned travelers that the city was fully booked, advising them to book their hotel and restaurant reservations weeks in advance.
