Marrakech is pretty awesome, but everyone I know who's been to Essaouira has been very disappointed. Marrakech is very touristy, and you will certainly be ripped off, but there are still a lot of very cool places to visit. My favorite places that I've visited in Morocco are Erfoud and Merzouga, which are in the south but I think about 6 or 7 hours or so east of Marrakesh. You can take a tour of some real sand dunes there, given by fake Tuareg tour guides (there are no Tuareg in Morocco, but they know tourists think Tuareg are cool).

Can't say for sure about Morocco, but "saha" is not used in Tunisian Arabic (instead, ayshuk, though also shukran). I've never been to Algeria and don't know any Algerians, though. Ayshuk was not understood in Morocco though and I pervasively heard "shukran", which I rarely hear in Tunisia. [My girlfriend is Tunisian though very expat by this point in her life.]

I asked my (Algerian) husband, and he said Moroccans, Algerians, and Tunisians all use "saha" at least sometimes. But he's from Annaba, which is pretty far from Morocco, so who knows.
