I agree that most guidebooks could use a bit of personality. Although hats off to guidebook writers. It's not as glamorous a job as one would imagine.<br/><br/>Smart idea for the Marrakech guidebook for your guesthouse. I know I'd love something more personal like that as a guest.

My problem with all guidebooks is that they are just kind of dry. I am writing short city guides bi-monthly for an airline magazine (Casablanca and Marrakech) and am hoping to make them more amusing. And I am going to write my own little fun guidebook for Marrakech for my friends and guests. I find that a lot of my older friends are into Eye Witness.
