The earthquake that struck Morocco on Friday night hit near Marrakesh, a popular tourist destination, sending both residents and visitors scrambling for safety.
“We didn’t know if we had to stand up, to sit down, to run,” Mr. Ait Chari said.
Ms. Lorang and hundreds of others found refuge in a courtyard, where some brought out rugs and blankets to sleep.
“It was very chaotic.”Mr. Ait Chari, the tour guide, said he was supposed to pick up more clients on Sunday but was unsure flights would be maintained.
Many people were still in shock, he said, but there had also been “great solidarity,” as residents cleared roads.
