What Works Well

Taourirt Kasbah and the regional resistance museum add solid indoor options.
Rain is nearly absent, so weather rarely disrupts plans.
What Needs Planning
Daytime heat is intense and can make outdoor visits tiring.
Crowds and prices sit at a medium level, so the month is not especially easy or cheap.
The outdoor lineup is limited enough that heat can weigh on the trip more than variety.
