- We made it to Morocco! Haha FINALLY 😂 Problem is - we weren't ready for Marrakesh! 😂
After a pretty shaky start to the whole trip, we landed in Tangier by foot and van and headed straight for the wild - Marrakesh! مراكش Oh, what a city to explore! Medinas, palaces, mosques riads, incredible street food and hustlers.. it's truly great to be back in a city that feels SO alive!
If you can take one thing away from this video... it's to not get robbed 👍🏻

#Vanlife #Morocco #Marrakesh
So far Morocco has been Magic! It has it all from the friendliest people to, bustling cities, amazing street food white sand beaches and crystal blue seas, incredible stretches of rich red desert to the most incredible mountains we’ve ever seen.. we cannot wait to show you what we have planned!
But we’re always looking for recommendations - if you have any please leave them below 🥰 Or if you’re a local guide, we’d love to hear from you!
Shukran to all that have made us feel at home and have welcomed us to your country - your hospitality and generosity has been greatly appreciated ❤️
Hi guys
I recommend you go check "kabana" it's a really nice restaurant/bar in the medina with a beautiful view. Also go spend some time at the " jardin majorelle" really worth it
Enjoy your stay in morocco.
If you are into sufring, or long sandy beaches, just come south Marrakech to Agadir city and its surroundings like Taghazout etc. If you want any kind of help let me know so I contact you on instagram.
Will you be meeting up with @eamon&bec In Morocco? 🙏
Enjoyed this so much! Can't wait to see more!
Taghazout is a really cool surf town near Agadir. On a day with no surf, our instructor at Surf Maroc took us to Paradise Valley. You walk through a jungle to crystal blue pools. There are caves and natural slides in the rocks between the pools. There was also a cute donkey wandering around in the jungle!
What a great sunday! Just watched Nate summiting Mount Toubkal, Eamon&Bec enjoying Moroccan food and now you two living the van life dream 🥰 Greetings from Germany!
SAME! 😂 Thanks for tuning in Hanna!! ❤️
Me too!
Just did the same thing! I love our van life trio. N&K, E&B and love finishing off with kinging-it. The comedy is the frosting on top.
lol i’ve just done the same. happy sunday!
Me too!
as a moroccan every week we go to hamam in winter to scarbbin our bodies 🇲🇦🇲🇦
"She was scrubbing back skin from 2009 mate" - haha. Glad to see you bounce right back after the bummer situation in the alley. Can't keep Kinging- It down babyyyyy! You guys are breezing toward 200k subs! So happy to see more folks appreciating you legends. Great video - Cheers!
NEVER Meg! Not even for 4 quid 😂 Scandalous!
Whoo i know, can you EVEN believe it -- madness to us, but feeling so happy and grateful for each and every single one of you! ❤️
Nope can't keep them down! Great people and very positive! Love them!
OMG! You just started this video at booth 31! The same one Eamon and Bec just posted about Lee in their video today! That was the booth Bec and Lee met the kindest man at in March 2020! That’s not a coincidence. ♥️ Love u two!
Haha it's not a coincidence, we had to go and meet their guy after they told us about him a while back - he is as lovely in person as they say 🥰❤️
@@kingingit OMG 😂 When my favorite people continue to collide! ♥️♥️♥️
I just finished Eamon and Bec's Vlog, came over here to see where you guys were with your travels to morocco, and in Eamon and Bec's vlog they were at table #31 at the end of their vlog and then you start your vlog at table #31 crazy!!!!!!!! Love you guys and your videos. ❤️
Haha yep Marrakech definitely takes you for a bit of a spin!
Amen to that 😂
You are two characters that are ruling the net - well done 👍🏼
It realllllllly does 🤣
You’re not wrong! 🤣
My favorite travel / van life channels are Eamon and Bed, Kinging-it, and Kara and Nate!!!
Found you and Eamon and Beck from Kara and Nate love all of you. You guys are so much fun to watch. Makes my day to travel vicariously through you!❤️❤️❤️
Aw man, we owe K&N so much money for all the lovely subscribers they've sent our way 😆❤️ Thank you so much for coming over Angela - happy to have you on board! 🥳
I found you guys via Eamon and Beck, also found Kara and Nate via them. I enjoy your circle of friends.
We love all them too! They are so positive and amazing people.
Same for me! Had been watching Kara and Nate for a when I fell in love with these two and Eamon and Beck when they all did a video in Canada together❤️❤️❤️
@@kingingit 🤗❤️❤️
Bloody brilliant!!! Craig: "I feel like I'm breathing in 4K" made us snort/ choke laughing so hard. What a description. Excellent job, mates!!!
haha! he's a funny bugger 😂 Thank you guys! 🧡
Lol 😂
What was that stuff?
This market is a theater that is performed every day. Mainly intended for tourists. If you take a photo or video you can pay anyone who thinks it is on it and the number of pickpockets is large. I lived there for a while and after a few times I never went there again. There are much nicer places in town with even better food. It is a beautiful city with a lot to discover. Truly a country you must visit.
I’m 56 and I get way too excited about each video you guys post..your living the life I wish I could have afforded..thanks sponsoring people for giving them the ability to SHOW US what we are missing. Loving you guys. xx
I watched Aemon and Bec earlier and it looks like you both did the exact trek as they did, right down to tent 31! Are you all going to meet up somewhere in Marrakech? I'm so happy that you;re going to spend 3 months there. It look AMAZING, AND, I've always LOVED their architecture!
They did get to meet up briefly I think (maybe we will get a video out of it, I saw from instagram stories) but Eamon and Bec are back in Canada for some health things they needed to take care of! They just had 6 weeks in Morocco.
Even though you had a bad experience, I love how positive you are about the cities you travel to, and people around you. It's wonderful to travel vicariously through you! 💜
Thank you so much Kristin, we take it all as it comes! It's not rare to be scammed on the streets, we just thought we were smarter than we are.. evidently not 😂 But you've got to laugh, it could have been much worse with your camera etc 😊
Agreed! They are so positive, Love them!
I lived in Marrakech for six months. I loved it and it’s people. This brings back so many good memories. I didn’t have to worry about being scammed, thanks to my in-laws.
When in Morocco, my answer was "no" to everyone that offered to "show me the way" bc I knew this could happen. I'm glad you guys are okay
See you on Sunday! It has become my favorite day of the week....Kinging It, Eamon and Bec, Kara and Nate and Max and Occy....Just missing Lee....all you guys affect so many people in a positive way.....Thank you from all of us!! R.Y.O.W....and call someone you love and tell them you love them....cheers from Northern British Columbia Canada!!
I absolutely love this! I just saw eamon and bec meeting this legend of number 31 for the second time and I bawled my eyes out. Beautiful country with beautiful people!
Guys I love you, you cure my depression, and because you re so awesome that you read these I have to say that one of my bucket listings would be to hang out with you guys for an evening!
You guys ... Thanks so much for the shout out, you are the absolute best and we miss you! Very stoked to see all the Morocco adventures because this was a banger! Let's do a 4K breathing session soon, okay? 😂 love ya!
😂😂 Absolutely! You're so welcome guys - we meant everything we said 🥰 You da best xx
“I feel like a drug lord” while in the robe 😂 lmao I cannot. My face hurts from laughing. Y’all are seriously the best and huge ups to Eamon & Bec for showing me your channel!!! I just adore you two! Safe travels from a new follower of your journey! 🖤🙏🏻✨
We always laugh so much watching their videos! 🤣We love their channel! Enjoy
Lads! what a wonderful experience you've had so far and love that you made it together. The first thing I noticed was that you were at booth 31!! Booth 31 is going to be the most famous stall in the Medina thanks to UA-cam. Aimee, the ring looks great on you. I see that it didn't turn green on you :) Also, what beautiful buildings and cafes there are. Thanks for showing us all the beauty of the city!!! Can't wait for the next one. See you next Sunday!
Yeh I know, they mentioned it to us a while back, so we had to stop in to say hello at 31! 🥰 I didn't get the rings, i'm keeping my options open as thats the first city i got to 😂 Thank YOU for tuning in Amanda 🧡😊
We're extremely sorry for what happened to u and We're super grateful that you showed the beauty of morocco and u didn't focus on the tragedy that happened
At min 18:13 and just wanted to say, Aimee, it’s okay to be fat.
Fat is normal, gaining weight is normal.
The body stretches and comes back, it has seasons, it travels, let yourself enjoy that delicious bread without having to go through any guilt or shame. You are not alone, I’m there too quite often, fatphobia is something we constantly reinforce without even thinking about it.
Ok back to the vid!!
LOVED THIS VIDEO!!!! Yes yes yes to doing uncomfortable things! You two are quickly becoming my fave youtube people!!
You two are just the best! I loved seeing the streets of Morocco and can’t wait to visit there myself.
Found you lads thru watching Eamon and Bec, you are my favourites now. Binge watched every episode and was sad when I caught up. 2.05 am in Perth Western Australia, well worth waiting up for. Love you both, take care and praying that no more bad experiences come your way. 🙏❤️😘
Aw Gosh Debs, get to bed ya looney! 😂 We can wait until the morning surely! haha thanks so much for your lovely comment, and spending your very early morning with us ❤️
Watching their videos will make you laugh a lot! They are so much fun!
I think it’s really cool that Eamon and Bec just put out a video and they also found Happy at 31 and took a picture with him! Are you guys going to collaborate?
I am looking forward to see you two catching up with Eamon and Bec... The more the merrier
Watching you two is like having a bowl of ice cream topped with treasures and laughs.
And thank you for doing the rough stuff so we can see our way through the same kinda crap.
Aww Don!! That first line is something from a beautiful poem! i LOVE that - thank you 🥰❤️❤️
Literally, you guys make our Sunday brighter ✨ 💖 💛 Much love from the Netherlands ❤ 🙏 🌏 🇳🇱 💕 ♥
Aw you guys ❤️❤️ Thank you so much for watching 🧡
I am enjoying watching your travels of Morocco. Watching from South Africa.
Any Eamon & Bec viewers notice that this video started and ended at vendor #31? What a coincidence! (In their most recent video in Morocco, Bec met up with a sweet elder who she first met with Lee two years ago - such a beautiful but sad moment! Greetings from Toronto 🥰
Morocco looks beautiful! I am so sorry you got mugged. But atleast it wasn't alot of money. The food looks amazing 😍 I think you went to the same place that Nate and Kara went to their first time they visited. The little man was so cute and sweet.. I absolutely love your videos and always look forward every Sunday for a new video. So next you next week 😊 Stay blessed and safe 🙏
Amazing video! My husband and I were in Morocco just before COVID-19 and we loved this country! Thanks for taking me back😁
I love that little mind blown guy SO MUCH. Lol. Great video guys. Glad we found you. My gf and I are loving your content ever week!
Oh, Camino Island. That's where my grandparents lived, they're both gone now. But i have great memories from visiting them there
The coffee ☕️ cafe was epic. I’m a coffee snob so I would have been in heaven. Love your channel! Found you after your visit to Eamon and Bec’s and love it. Y’all are so fun and funny! Keep the fun coming! ♥️♥️♥️
Morocco we are here for it! Glad use made it to one another after all that madness 😆 see you later lads! Happy Sunday! Xx
Ah thanks Sydney! So glad that's over with haha!
Awww, the guy at 31 is Bec's special man too 💗 I'm so relieved you're both ok and still oozing positivity after your ordeal x
I know, they mentioned it to us a while back, so we had to stop in to say hello 🥰 Thanks Debbie!
The intro, I'm screaming. It was like if the BBC let the coolest couple on earth film a documentary opening.
A totally amazing roller coaster 🤩😍🎢!! There really is nothing like the thrill, chaos and magic of exploring North Africa …
Makes me want to go visit Morocco. Eamon & Bec were just at 31 with the same gentleman! Can't wait for you all to be together in the new year! Glad you are having a great time!
Did Eamon and Bec point you at #31. They also enjoy that one.
Looks like a great time. So happy you are able to enjoy it together.
Dying at the little cinematic shot at 18:16 where you can see Aimee burning the ever-loving shit out of her mouth on the tajine 💀
Beautiful video guys. Just wanted to say I used to live in Marrakesh and I know the main square can get pretty intense. It took me three tries to be able to walk calmly through it. A simple 'La Chokran" with a firm wave of your hand should get you out of any dicey situations. And as a tip, save your carpet buying for another place, I can recommend going into the Sahara, they only allow with tours, but the tours take you into smaller villages where you can see them being made. I think I bought mine for around 30 Euro. Make sure you have cash though :)
Brilliant - thank you Erin! We will wait for the rug.. We know Marrakech is the most expensive place to try and get one, we will bide our time ❤️
Make sure you don't book a Sahara tour from Marrakech. It's too far from there and too expensive. Get closer with custard first.
It's so good to see you both beaming and having the best time ever. It's made my weekend. So glad you are OK after your unexpected trip down the alleyway!! Can't wait to see more of your time in Morocco x
Delighted you are back together.
You are amazing. You are never alone. You, RYOW. You are both my hero,s. ❤
Great Vlog. Looks amazing! I really want to go to Morocco now!!! 🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️
You're welcome anytime Emi
Welcome
Good one guys! Just watched with my 2-year-old while he was eating his lunch and he was in a kinging-it trance 😂 we were both loving it! Enjoy Morocco! love from Western Australia x kiki
Love the music, the joy and enthusiasm!
22:20 eamon and bec were just with him!
Another video, fantastic! There's something I've been thinking for a while watching your videos...you clearly put a lot of time and effort into making your videos the best they can be. And, especially of late, your videos have consistently been bangers. It must take a lot out of you both putting these together on a weekly basis. I'm very thankful for it, but my lawd I'm not sure I could cope with that pressure!
Take care guys.
Aw thank you so much Jonathan. I, Aimee am ALWAYS worried that one week's video wont be good, but we've recently taken on an editor to help with the pressures! 😊 Thanks for noticing - we appreciate that!
@@kingingit All your videos are good because you two have charisma and are funny. I could watch you eat a bowl of cereal and it would be good.
@@kingingit I always look forward to your videos, and you convinced me to buy my own campervan after watching your travels. So far, I love it. Keep up the fantastic work 😊
Spot on!
You guys are such legends ♥️ Never fail to make me laugh, such kind and genuine people. Look forward to your video every week and already looking forward to next weeks to see what adventures you’re up to!
You're the best Dan! Thank you for being so kind 🥰❤️
Agreed! Can't wait for more videos!
Eamon and Bec were just with him.. I sure hope you guys got to meet up with them.. it is so much fun watching the 4 of you guys together… enjoy your time there ‼️ Have fun and stay safe ‼️
Love your advice on anxiety Aimee. I too deal with bad travel anxiety and it has held me back from doing the traveling I so desire. Time to get comfortable with the uncomfortable!
You are absolute warriors..... Been feeling very anxious and I'm watching how many things that you have to go through and it gives me strength that you're handling it with such Grace humility and laughter so bloody love you both
That bad experience was giving us anxiety just watching! You guys rock and are so brave doing what you do. We’ve never travelled that far south but you keep on inspiring to take our van further. Stay safe guys 🤟🏼
Brest youtubers i have ever seen
Excellent Job 👍🏻
Welcome to Morocco
It’s so strange to see your’s and Eamon & Bec’s video both in Marrakesh but not together, can’t wait for the reunion next year!!! ❤️🔥😍❤️🔥😍❤️🔥😍
Us too - It's going to be fabulous 🥳🥳
On behalf of all Moroccans, I would say Sorry for what happened to you in these alleys. Scummers are everywhere in touristy cities around the world.
We understand Max, we don't taint the Moroccan people because of this mishap - they are some of the most hospitable and generous people we've ever met 🥰
Early Kinging It squad !!! Another duo that brings an immediate smile to my face! Love you guys:)
Aw Nicola, ya little babe! Thank you 🧡
Eamon&Bec brought me to this channel and I’ve been watching your old videos and you guys are a blast to watch!
Answer to question- In America a large group of citrus trees is called a grove; no clue what it's called in Morocco. It really is stunning there! I enjoyed your tour of Marrakech!
Video starts at booth #31 - where Bec's beautiful friend was from their trip with Lee!
We made a special visit to him 😊❤️
Aimee and Craig, Just received my Kinging It jumper or as we say “hoodie” in 🇨🇦. I proudly strut around like a groupie peacock trying to osmose your passion through the fabric. Love your channel and podcast (People! Tune in to their podcast, it’s awesome ❤️). We got to get the Subs up because I need you in my life forever! Keep up the great work you Legends🥰🤗. RYOW!
In Florida it is an orange grove
Ahh good to know, we'd probably remember that one easier!
I see a collab with Eamon and Bec in our near future?? I can only hope! Thanks for sharing, guys.
"I feel like I can breathe in 4k" lmao. Sorry you both got ripped off, glad it was a small amount. Keep on doing it, in the most hilarious way possible. Much love to you both on your travels. xxxx
A wonderful vlog, glad you are reunited & enjoying Morocco.
I just finished watching Eamon & Bec in Marrakesh!😊
A trek in Ourika Valley is worth a visit, you will pass shops on the way that sell rugs to the medinas. One shop we passed on way to Ourika Valley sells rugs & tapestries to Liberty of London. Fingers crossed they open their boarders again 🤞🏼
So pleased the horrible thieves didn’t steal your camera. Love the scenery and colours and the coffee house was amazing - so my kind of place to visit.
Coming from Eamon and Bec's new video and seeing you in the first minute in your video walking beside the food stand "31" was awesome 😊
.. I hope my English is good enough to understand 😅
It absolutely IS Miriam! .. 31 is the place to be 🥰
Another fabulous video! I always hate when they come to an end! Message for the robbers “KARMA BABE”! Thankful you both are safe! ~Cara ❤️
It’s Mohammad from Eamon & Bec! Stall 31 is adorable! You two are wonderful, thank you!
المغرب من طنجة إلى الكويرة 🇲🇦❤💪👊
This is way better than tv loving watching you guys
Quality fun and inspiring 👌👌
Ahh thanks a bunch Jay! Thanks for watching mate!
It's been a long time since we went to Marrakech but it's an awesome place! Crazy busy and yep easy to get scammed but I guess it's the same in most big cities. Awesome vlog guys, love how you always make the best of everything🙂 ❤ x
Sunday Triple Feature love you guys
Marrakesh Express is more Crosby, Stills & Nash than it is Wes Anderson, but excellent reference just the same! ❤️
Yet another one of my favourite vlogging duos in another one of my favourite countries. I'm very thankful that you were both able to get over there before borders closed and I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for you that you can continue with your planned travels too. 🤞
Can’t wait!! Been waiting all week!
Whoop!! Thanks for coming over Jenay! xx
Hahahaha the reference to Jess Nelso (the Uk baddie) is kinging me😜
Loved it! Beautiful, hilarious and delicious. Be safe!🤗😘🌼🇻🇪
Eagerly await your vids! Found you through E&B and have fallen in love with you lads, living the good life vicariously. Love seeing your parallel journeys through Morocco and look forward to when you reunite. Safe travels - hope you don’t have to replace all of Custard part by part. It is a bit of a reality check for me - I dream of vanlife but I would have to go with a second hand vehicle and have no mechanical skills, sooo…it’s a bit daunting. Good on you!
What an amazing trip! I'm already looking forward to the next episode.
Thank you! Won't be long 😜
We got a rug in the Maddinah Decemer 2019, we paid 350Dhm for it I think. 100% wool, hand crafted like most of it is in Morocco, and really beautiful. It doesn't matter if it seems like a lot of money to the locals. What really matters is if you feel like you are happy to pay that price. If the shop owners make a decent cut out of it, good on them. If you're happy with your purchase, good on you!
You are welcome morroco ❤🇲🇦 country very beutfaul and people
Been waiting for this video for ages u guys are great 👍
Ah Jack - thank you so much mate! 😊
This vlog was a barrel of laughs as usual 😂 It’s made me more excited than ever to visit Marrakech one day! 😍 What was the name of that cafe selling coffees from around the world? Looked and sounded incredible! All the best 😅
Dar el Bacha Coffee
Beautiful MARRAKECH 😍🇲🇦
when you enter that cafe (grande balcon cafe) it bring me a lot of memory when i always go to marrakech that is my spot ; i am morrocan living in valencia spain and it been more that 3 years i havent been in that cafe, nice memories
Grab some flat bread, harrisa, olives, and fruit from the market and make yourself a picnic. My favorite thing to do in Morocco. Enjoy! Excited to re-live my time there through you two.
Love that! We absolutely will! STARVING now just thinking about it 😂😂
@@kingingit me too! 😂Also, for the rug look for agave silk, (vegan, yay!) I can't remember how much I paid for mine though.
Omg no.31 eamon and bec are just around the corner. Vlogs are wicked
Absolutely love Morocco, it is such an assault on the senses! I have not been to Marrakesh...yet, but when I do I shall definitely check out that coffee house, it looked amazing! Are you guys going to Fes at any point? If you do, make sure to visit the Ruined Garden cafe, you will love it. It's a mission to find as it is deep in the old city down some narrow alleys, but get a map, ignore the kids that say it is closed today, and enjoy it when you find it. Am loving your videos, keep up the great work!
Looks like such a FUN TIME!!!!!!
Wes Anderson films are the reason Morocco is on my bucket list! I just got back from Tanzania so it may be a bit before I get there, but I'm definitely going to that coffee shop, thank you!
You two are absolutely hilarious I belly laugh all the way through!!! Thank you for sharing the real and raw sides of travel.
I love the coffee shops , very beautiful place Morocco.....enjoyed this vlog so much . take care God Bless .....Thank You
Thank you Patricia ❤️🥰
That "Coffee shop" is everything, and "Wes Anderson" completely. So happy for you too, what a beautiful world.❤️☺️
