Are you planning a 2 Week Morocco itinerary in 2024? This is our in-depth guide to the best places to visit in Morocco and how you can explore the bustling souks, beautiful landscapes and vibrant culture.
We’ll share our tips on how to get around the country, where to stay and how to budget for a 2 week Morocco trip. Let’s explore what to do in Morocco!
The country is filled with culture from the delicious cuisine to the traditional architecture and designs. We didn’t have a hard time falling in love with the mosaic tiles dotted around the cities, especially the decor within our riads.
We’ve also written in-depth guides to each destination in this 2 week Morocco itinerary! You’ll find the links throughout this travel guide.

Getting a SIM card in Morocco
During our 2 weeks in Morocco, we grabbed a local SIM card from the airport on arrival. We originally planned to get a Morrocan E-sim but if you’re spending longer than a week, it works out cheaper to get a local sim.
Sim Cards at the airport are all around €20 for 20GB and strangely Telekom didn’t accept Moroccan Dirham as a currency so we paid in euros.
We recommend bringing Euros or USD with you on your Morocco trip as it’s accepted at multiple places around the country, including some of the souks!
Currency and ATM’s in Morocco
The local currency of Morocco is Moroccan Dirham and you can’t really find it outside of the country. This means you either have to use an ATM to get money out or bring cash to exchange. We used Starling but you can use Wise or Revolut.
We recommend using Al Barid Bank to get money out in Morocco as they don’t charge extra for foreign cards (although your bank card might). The maximum amount of money you can get out of an ATM is 2000 dirham in Morocco (£160). Other banks were trying to add £3-£5 on top of our money.
2 Week Morocco Itinerary
After this itinerary, we’ve added more helpful tips such as how to get around and where to stay. But first, we’ll get into our 2 week Morocco itinerary!
This Morocco route also works if you’re starting in Tangier or Fes, just reverse the itinerary.
Day 1 – 5 | Marrakech
Marrakech can’t be missed during your 2 weeks in Morocco. The Red City is one of Morocco’s best places to visit, with the vibrant medina being the highlight.
We arrived quite late on the first day, but we recommend spending at least 3 days in Marrakech to see the highlights and get used to the country!
Marrakech is incredibly lively and to be honest, we were quite overwhelmed when we first arrived. The chaos of Jemaa el-Fnaa square is something to get used to and the evenings are the busiest time of day! We spent our days wandering through the markets and eating some of the best vegan food in Morocco!
How to get to Marrakech
If you’re following this 2 week Morocco itinerary, you’ll likely need to fly to Marrakech.
Marrakech Menara Airport is close to the medina and has a local airport bus for 30 dirham or €3. You’ll need to pay the bus driver with cash and the buses leave every 30 minutes.
CTM and Supratours are the local intercity bus companies that will get you around the country and will be useful if you’re starting somewhere else in Morocco!
Check out our 3 day Marrakech itinerary for more in-depth details on how to plan your trip!
Things to do in Marrakech
Marrakech is filled with great things to do and there are also a few day trips you can do from the city. You can either book day trips from local agents or via GetYourGuide – we’ll share the links for GetYourGuide as it’s always reassuring to look at reviews from other travellers.
- Visit Agafay Desert for a Quad Biking Tour or Dinner and sunset within the desert.
- Take a day trip to Ouarzazate and Ait Benhaddou (if you don’t want to visit the Sahara)
- Explore the Atlas Mountains on a guided Hiking Trip!
The Medina
The heart of Marrakech is the wonderful old medina. You’ll find most of the main things to do here and it’s likely your accommodation is within the medina. The medina is filled with souks selling clothes, spices, Moroccan carpets and there’s an abundance of restaurants to enjoy.
Ben Youssef Madrasa
Ben Youssef Madrasa was one of our favourite places to visit during our Morocco trip, it was by far the most beautiful school and the Moroccan architecture blew us away. It can get very busy here, so if you want to beat the crowds, try to arrive for opening time like we did! It made a lot of difference!
As photographable as Ben Youssef Madrasa is, we also loved exploring the 100+ old student rooms. It’s like a small maze filled with rooms and wooden windows.
Jemaa el-Fnaa
Jemaa el-Fnaa is the most chaotic area of Morocco, it’s pretty overwhelming depending on what time of day you visit.
In the morning, the square is the main meeting place for tour groups. In the daytime, the juice stalls open and the guys try to call you over for juice and there’s an array of street performers to avoid.
The evening is when the true chaos starts and the locals come to the square. There’s food stalls with hosts grabbing your attention to eat at their stall and many locals selling items. It’s pretty crazy, but still not to be missed during your time in Marrakech.
Bahia Palace
Another spot to add to your Morocco itinerary is Bahia Palace! This palace is one of the most famous in Morocco with a lot of people and tour groups visiting every day. We decided to visit in the early morning like we did with Ben Youssef Madrasa and got to experience the beautiful architecture with fewer crowds.
Bahia Palace was the first royal residence when Morocco gained independence in 1956. There are lots of indoor and outdoor rooms to explore, but not many information signs.
El Badi Palace
We preferred El Badi Palace over Bahia Palace as it felt more adventurous as it is now ruins. Only a few artefacts and pillars have been preserved from this palace and it’s now one huge square. The highlight is the chambers underneath the palace and there are also museum-like rooms nestled into the walls.
Moroccan Cooking Class
What better way to start your 2 week Morocco itinerary than to learn about Moroccan cuisine?! We loved our cooking class and it ended up being some of the best vegan food on our trip! The host can cater for vegetarians and vegans alongside their regular Moroccan menu.
We learnt how to cook a tagine and how to make the perfect mint tea. We highly recommend saving an afternoon for cooking! Book your cooking class tickets in advance!
Visit the Gardens of Marrakech
As Marrakech is one of the most visited cities in Morocco for tourism, some of the places to visit have become popular due to social media. Jardin Majorelle is one of them and although it’s beautiful, it costs 165 dirham (€15) to visit which is quite expensive for the country.
We decided to stroll around Cyber Park for free which is a great alternative! There are also plenty of museums to explore in Marrakech like the House of Photography and the Marrakech Museum.
Where to stay in Marrakech
Riad 112 $ – here’s where we stayed during our 4 nights in Marrakech. Affordable, good location and felt very Moroccan! – Find on Booking.com here!
Happy Marrakchy $ – private rooms and dorm rooms in Marrakech! Find on Booking.com here!
Riad Samir Privilege Boutique Hotel & Spa $$ – a luxurious Riad with a pool in Marrakech – Find on Booking.com here!
Riad BE is also one of the most photographed riads in Marrakech, but you’ll need to book months in advance to get a room.
Best Restaurants in Marrakech
- Henna Art Cafe $-$$ – A mix of local & international food (our favourite spot)!
- Cafe Des Espices $$ – A lovely rooftop restaurant with views of the medina!
- Niam Restaurant $ – Moroccan & international food for an affordable price
- Broc the Kasbah $$ – Vegetarian restaurant with a rooftop serving Western food!
Day 5 – 7 | Sahara Desert Tour
After spending a few days in Marrakech we started our Sahara Desert Tour! We booked this trip in advance to secure a space, but you can also book it nearer to the time if you’re flexible.
The best time to visit the Sahara Desert is between March and May (Spring). It can get very cold at night in the Sahara in the winter months and it can also be super hot in the summer months. We visited in April and the temperature was pretty good, although it was cloudy.
How to book a Sahara Desert Tour
We booked our Sahara Tour on GetYourGuide and picked the one with the best reviews and price. There are quite a few companies to choose from, but Ando Travel worked well for us! We paid online and knew our main itinerary beforehand.
Here’s the exact tour we booked: Sahara Desert Tour (from Marrakech to Fes) on GetYourGuide. It was one of the lowest prices we found online at the time that took us to Fes after the Sahara Desert.
During our tour, we learnt that you definitely get what you pay for. We were lucky enough to have a group of 8 people in a minivan, but other groups had 16 seats or a bus full of people. You’ll be spending 3 days on the road with the same group.
The camping is also a main factor for the price, our campsite was close to the city and quite cheap, but if you pay more you’ll get a more luxurious style camp!
We usually book day trips with local companies when travelling through places such as the Philippines. But for a 3 day trip, we didn’t want to risk it in Morocco.
Sahara Desert Tour Brief Itinerary
Although the tour is named Sahara Desert Tour, it’s actually a 3 day tour leading towards the Sahara passing through villages, gorges and famous landmarks in Morocco. There’s quite a lot of driving involved over the 3 days, so prepare yourself with some good music and comfy clothes!
Ait Ben Haddou
One of the best sights to visit on the Sahara Tour is the historic Ait Ben Haddou. The area is a filming location for popular shows and films like Games of Thrones, The Mummy and The Gladiator.
A guide met us to show us around the village and through the houses of the few people who still live there.
The village feels like it’s in the middle of nowhere within the Ounila Valley. It’s a UNESCO World Heritage Site like other sights in Morocco and definitely worth seeing during your 2 weeks in Morocco!
Here’s the tour we booked: Sahara Desert Tour (from Marrakech to Fes) on GetYourGuide.
Tinghir Village
Another main spot on the tour is a stop in Tinghir Village – a peaceful land filled with farms, little houses and luscious greenery!
We had a great guide that showed us around the fruit and vegetables and into the homes where people used to live. After Tinghir Village we stopped at Todra Gorge for a short walk through the huge rocks.
Camping in the Merzouga (Sahara Desert)
Spending a night in the Sahara was a highlight during our 2 weeks in Morocco. We still can’t believe we slept in the Sahara, the most famous desert in the world. The night was very quick but we managed to see some of the stars, listened and danced around the campfire listening to Berber (Amazighs) music.
Our camp wasn’t too bad with huge tents and beds with a light in each room. However, it would have been magical to stay further in the desert and see the Milky Way. You do have to pay more to stay in camps further into the desert. Plus, it was quite cloudy for our visit.
Overall it was worth visiting the Sahara Desert during our 2 week Morocco itinerary! We were on the fence about it for a while due to the long journeys. There were only a few hours of driving on days 1 and 2 before a long driving day on the third day to get to Fes.
We’ll never forget seeing the sand dunes for the first time!

Day 7 – 10 | Fes
Fes is home to the largest and oldest Medina in the world dating back to the 9th century. It’s so well-preserved and a lot more chill than Marrakech! We enjoyed Fes so much, we recommend spending at least 2 days here to soak up the best things to do.
How to get to Fes
We arrived in Fes in our minivan as a part of the Sahara Desert Tour. The driver dropped us off at the edge of the medina where our host came and met us. This is ultimately the easiest way to get to Fes, but there are also buses, trains and an international airport in Fes.
Things to do in Fes
Fes is so much more chill than Marrakech and we really appreciated travelling a little slower here, even though it’s still busy. Read our in-depth 2 Day Fes Itinerary to find out the best things to do in the city. For now, here’s some of the main highlights you can’t miss!
Fes El Bali
Fes El Bali is the ancient medina of Fes with over 9,000 narrow and winding streets. Similar to Marrakech, you’ll find lots of accommodation choices here along with restaurants, shops and more! The main streets are on Google Maps so you won’t get lost! If you have the time, take a pottery class in the heart of the city.
The medina is the old part of the city, but the new city isn’t really visited by tourists (unless you need the CTM Bus Station).
Jnan Sbil Botanical Park
For a fresh breath away from the city, take a stroll in Jnan Sbil Botanical Park! It’s free to visit and is really well looked after. There’s bamboo, water fountains, a lake and even some pets in cages (which we weren’t too fond of). It’s worth visiting during your 2 weeks in Morocco!
Marinid Tombs
The views from the Marinid tombs are the best way to see just how huge the medina really is. The tombs are pretty crumbled now and are mostly ruins but there are still some pillars standing.
It’s best to visit the tombs at sunset for the best views, but we went in the morning and it was still lovely! It takes around 30 minutes to hike up to the top from the medina!
➤ Take a tour of Fes Medina and explore the historic city with a guide!
Al Attarine Madrasa
If you only have time to visit one school in Fes, Al Attarine Madrasa is the one! It’s another well-preserved school that’s been open to the public. Although there’s no furniture, you can see the rooms and enjoy the main courtyard similar to other schools.
Plus the madrasas in Fes are a fraction of the price compared to Marrakech! We also admired the views of the nearby Mosque and University Kairaouine which we couldn’t actually visit as non-muslims.
Bou Inania Madrasa
Bou Inania Madrasa is another beautiful school to see in Morocco with incredible architecture. It’s slightly smaller than Al Attarine, but still amazing to walk around. We’re always blown away by the Moroccan mosaics in every madrasa!
Where to stay in Fes
Dar Melyani $ – A unique museum-style hotel in the medina of Fes. We stayed here during our Morocco itinerary and loved it – Find it on Booking.com here!
Riad Andalib $$ – A lovely place to stay with incredible rooms, decor and breakfast – Find it on Booking.com here!
Riad Verus $ – A chill hostel with dorms and private rooms – Find it on Hostelworld here!
Best Restaurants in Fes
- Culture Box $-$$ – local & international options & good prices! (our favourite spot)!
- Sekaya $ – affordable Moroccan food with a rooftop!
- Veggie Pause $$ – local and international food in Fes!
Day 10 – 13 | Chefchaouen
Next on our 2 week Morocco itinerary, we have Chefchaouen, the beautiful blue pearl of Morocco. Chefchaouen made us fall in love with its gorgeous painted blue walls, floor and shops!
We’re so glad we added Chefchaouen to our Morocco itinerary and highly recommend it to anyone! We’ll explain a few details and things to do, to get you prepared for your visit. Also, here’s our 2 day Chefchaouen guide!
How to get to Chefchaouen from Fes
The best way to get from Fes to Chefchaouen is by CTM bus and it takes around 4 hours. It’s really easy to book online via the CTM website and you can also pay online.
From Fes, you’ll need to head to the CTM Bus station in the new city of Fes (outside of the Medina). We took a taxi there for 20 dirham and had to pay 5 dirham for our luggage on the bus.
Once you arrive in Chefchaouen, you can either walk 15 minutes uphill to the medina or grab a taxi again. The buses are really comfortable in Morocco and we recommend taking them!
Alternatively, you can get a private taxi for around €18 per person which is more convenient but more expensive.
➤ Read our guide on how to plan your budget in Morocco!
Things to do in Chefchaouen
Chefchaouen is a pretty small city and you can explore the medina in one day! We recommend spending another day visiting the nearby mountains and dip your legs in the pools of waterfalls!
The Medina
The famous narrow blue streets are all situated in the hilly medina of Chefchaouen. There’s a few tourist shops around and some locals will make you pay to take a photo, but generally, it’s way more relaxed than Marrakech anyway.
We wandered through the medina multiple times during our 2 week Morocco trip. Try to get some beautiful photos of the streets in the quieter times of the day. Explore the medina on a guided tour!
Place Uta el-Hammam
This is the main square of Medina where most of the restaurants are. You’ll find Al Kasbah and the Grand Mosque here along with a big tree and rooftop eateries.
Bilmos is our favourite restaurant in this area serving the most unique vegetable Tagine in Morocco!
➤ Short on time? You can do a day trip from Fes to Chefhcaouen with GetYourGuide.
Spanish Mosque at Sunset
The Bouzafer Mosque is also known as the Spanish Mosque and is the best place in the city to watch the sun go down. We admired the sun setting over the blue city on our second night in Chefchaouen and loved it!
It’s a 20-minute slightly uphill walk to get to the mosque and the spaces fill up quite fast, but there’s plenty of grass to sit on like we did.
Akchour Waterfalls
Would you believe there are waterfalls and mountains in Morocco? We didn’t! But we researched how to visit and now we’re sharing it with you!
The hike to Akchour Waterfalls is around 4 hours following the smaller falls and turquoise water along the way. Our Morocco hiking experience was so different to other places we’ve been since there are wooden restaurants every 20 minutes of walking.
Even right at the very end after 2 hours of walking, there’s a food shack selling tagines and juice!
Most of the falls are small but beautiful and if you’ve had some rain lately the last waterfall is the tallest and the highlight!
Hiking to Gods Bridge is another trail that we did that day taking 1 hour 30 minutes. It’s a bit more strenuous but a lovely hike. Find out more details in our 2 day Chefchaouen guide!
How to get to Akchour Waterfalls – Hop in a Grand Taxi near the CTM Bus Station and tell them you’re going to Akchour. Have the trail up on All Trails and even without internet, your GPS signal should follow the trail.
You can also book a day trip with GetYourGuide!
Where to stay in Chefchaouen
Riad Mauritania $ – We stayed in a private dorm here during our time in Chefchaouen! There are also rooms and dorms and a lovely rooftop – Find on Booking.com here!
Dar Hannan $$ – A modern hotel in Chefchaouen with a rooftop – Find on Booking.com here!
Casa Sabila $ – A cosy hotel in the medina with amazing views! – Find on Booking.com here!
Best Restaurants in Chefchaouen
- Bilmos $$ – one of the best spots in the square with friendly service and great food (our favourite spot)!
- Baissara Ansara $ – a local place only serving white bean soup!
- Cafe Clock $$ – a favourite for travellers in Morocco & they also do a bread-making class.
- Restaurant Hasma $ – serving local & international food in Chefchaouen.
➤ Need a SIM Card? – Get your Morrocan E-sim in advance here!
Day 13 – 14 | Tangier
The last destination on our 2 week Morocco itinerary is Tangier – the port city of Morocco. You can choose to spend longer in Tangier if you want to enjoy the beaches, but we mainly used the city as an airport city to leave from.
We did make sure to explore the city before leaving Morocco and we did find a few things to do!
How to get to Tangier from Chefchaouen
The CTM Bus is the best way to get to Tangier from Chefchaouen and it only takes 2 hours. You can book your tickets online on the CTM Website. The Tangier bus station is a little far outside of the centre and we had to haggle for a taxi to get to our accommodation. You can also use InDrive which is like Uber.
Things to do in Tangier
Tangier sits on the border of continents overlooking Gibraltar and is a popular place to arrive to from Spain. Some of the best things to do in Tangier include beaches, the medina and eating!
You can even take a day trip tour to Asilah, & Cape Spartel along the coast from Tangier. We heard that Cafe Hafa is worth visiting in Tangier, but we didn’t get the time to go!
Beaches
Tangier is the only place on this 2 week Morocco route that has beaches! Here are the ones we recommend visiting on a short trip to Tangier:
- Merkala Beach
- Tangier Beach
Tangier Beach is the main beach of the city and Merkala is just west of the medina. They all have such great views!
Medina
The medina is the best place to explore if you’re short on time, it’s very relaxed here compared to any other city we visited in Morocco. The Port de Tanger Ville is a lovely area to chill and admire the views of Gibraltar and Spain.
There’s little shops throughout the medina selling ice cream, handbags and bakery goods! You’ll also find mosques!
The Kasbah
The Kasbah is north in the Medina and you’ll find museums such as the Kasbah Museum, Ibn Batutta Museum and the Contemporary Art Museum.
The Phoenician Tombs
The Phoenician Tombs are a lovely viewpoint in Tangier, especially on a clear day! The tombs themselves are holes in the ground but the area is super nice to chill.
You can also book a day trip to Chefchaouen & Akchour Falls from Tangier!
Where to stay in Tangier
Diafa $ – We stayed here for 1 night in Tangier and it was so homely – Find on Booking.com here!
Dar Rif Kebdani $$ – only a 5-minute walk from the beach, this hotel is perfect for a short stay in Tangier – Find on Booking.com here!
Best Restaurants in Tangier
- Abou Tayssir $ – an incredible family-run Syrian restaurant serving great vegan food!
- Sarayah Food $ – a good Indian restaurant in Tangier!
Other Places To Visit in Morocco
That’s the end of our 2 week Morocco itinerary! We spent 13 nights and 14 days in the country and loved it! It’s honestly so different to what we expected, in a good way. Here’s a few more places we want to visit in the future:
- Imlil – a charming village in the Atlas Mountains and the perfect base for hiking.
- Essaouira – a coastal beachy gem on Morocco’s Atlantic Coast known for its chilled atmosphere.
- Taghazout – is a popular place for surfing and there’s chill bohemian vibes here.
Book a day trip to Essaouira from Marrakech! You can also book a surfing lesson in Essaouira!
Accommodation in Morocco
There are many riads, dars and hostels in Morocco for affordable prices. We share our recommendations throughout this 2 week Morocco itinerary and we used Booking.com to find all of these places to stay.
Staying in a Riad or Dar is a must when visiting Morocco and all part of the experience! Riads are traditional Moroccan homes that are designed to keep the heat away. The windows for each room face into an open courtyard and sound can travel very easily!
If you’re on a budget, you can even find riads with dorm rooms! Some riads also have pools in the centre of the courtyard, but they’re usually so cold!
Best time to visit Morocco
The best time to visit Morocco is March to May and September to October.
We visited in April and had a little heatwave of 34°C in Marrakech and then temperatures of 20°C in Fes. The weather and temperature can change easily but generally, these months are the best time to visit for all-around good weather.
December to February are cooler months in Morocco, especially in the Atlas Mountains and Sahara desert. But, the coastal and beach towns are pleasant to visit all year round!
How to get around Morocco
Morocco is an easy country to travel with a surprisingly good network of buses, trains and flights. We had no problem travelling around the country by bus, grand taxi and even a minivan on our Sahara Tour.
By Bus – CTM and Supratours are the best bus companies for travelling around Morocco. We only took CTM Buses on our trip and our experience was great! They are reliable intercity buses covering most major cities in the country. You can book a seat in advance online and the driver stops for breaks if the journey is longer than 2 hours.
By Train – Although Morocco’s national railway doesn’t cover all the major spots in Morocco. It does connect some of the major cities such as Casablanca, Marrakech, Rabat, Fes, and Tangier. Check the ONCF website for tickets.
By Car – Renting a Car will give you the best freedom during your 2 week Morocco itinerary! We were tempted to rent a car to visit the Sahara Desert. Browse for rental cars here.
By Taxi – There’s an abundance of taxis that will take you almost anywhere for the right price, but they will always try to upsell a tourist, so haggle until you feel comfortable.
By Plane – It’s also possible to fly between the major cities in Morocco, but we prefer to save the planes for arriving and leaving the country.
By Grand Taxi – Grand Taxis are shared taxis that run between specific points and will only leave when they fill the car with people or get the correct amount of money. We used a grand taxi to get from Chefchaouen to Akchour Falls.
How do I plan a 2 week trip to Morocco?
Now that you’ve read our 2 week Morocco itinerary, it’s time to start planning your trip! Here’s a few helpful tips that you might need to think about.
- Check for any national holidays on your date of visit such as Ramadan
- Quick check if places of interest are open (sometimes things are closed on Mondays!)
- Book your accommodation (book here!)
- Book your cooking class (book here!)
- Book any transport you want to take (CTM Website)
- Check for any guided tours or activities you want to book in advance (Browse GetYourGuide)
Is 2 weeks in Morocco enough?
Yes! 2 weeks in Morocco is a great amount of time to spend in the country.
As Morocco is so close to Europe, it’s one of the most visited African countries (especially by Europeans) and generally one of the easiest to visit. We’ve known people to spend anything from 3 days in Marrakech to 1 month in the country.
Most people spend less than a week though, which makes a 2 week Morocco itinerary a dream! Our itinerary isn’t too fast-paced either, so you can really experience the Moroccan culture without rushing around every day or two.
How much to budget for 2 weeks in Morocco?
We wrote down all of our travel costs during our 2 week Morocco itinerary and we spent around £475 per person! We ate at restaurants and food stalls about 95% of the time with the other 5% being peanut butter and banana khobz for breakfast or a snack. We didn’t stay in any pricey accommodation and walked whenever we could.
Generally, we always recommend saving up a little more than what someone else will tell you, especially if you want to spend money on drinks or taxis for convenience

Must Try Foods in Morocco (Vegan edition!)
We have a full guide dedicated to how to travel Morocco as a vegan based on our own experience. Here’s a few must-try foods during your 2 week Morocco trip:
- Various Moroccan Salads
- Moroccan Mint Tea
- Vegetable Tagine
- Vegetarian Couscous
- Bissara Soup (white bean soup with oil)
- Hirara Soup (tomato & lentil soup)
- Zaalouk (eggplant)
- Moroccan Lentils
- Taktouka (tomato & green pepper)
➤ Here’s our guide on how to travel to Morocco as a vegan with more recommendations and tips!
Learn a few Arabic Phrases before your visit
We were quite out of our comfort zone in Morocco with the main language being Arabic with French heavily used. In the north of Morocco, locals also speak Spanish! As English Speakers, we didn’t struggle to communicate with most locals as English is widely known but for some museums, there were no English signs.
It was useful to use Arabic and French throughout the medinas in Morocco, especially when being spoken to a lot. Here are a few Arabic phrases to learn: (Arabic uses a completely different alphabet, so it’ll be hard to read it in Morocco)
- Hello – Salam
- Thank you – Shokran
- No, thank you – La Shokran
- No – La
- Yes – Wah
- Please – Afak
- Goodbye – Beslama
