Destination Must-See's

Rick’s Cafe:

Featured in the blockbuster movie Casablanca from 1942, a visit to this restaurant is sure to spark your nostalgia. Feel like you’ve stepped into the movie as you surround yourself in the scenery reminiscent of the film. Although this is a recreation, not where it was filmed, your imagination will take hold as you watch the film on repeat and get a taste of what it was like back in the day.

Casablanca:

Morocco’s largest city, main port and most cosmopolitan city, this bustling metropolis and economic hub is sprinkled with tree-lined parks and charming colonial architecture. Its most famous landmark is the elaborate Hassan II Mosque, one of the world’s largest mosques built on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean.

Mud brick homes:

These homes have been used throughout the world but are extremely popular in the Middle East, India and North Africa. A mud brick is made of mud or clay that is mixed with straw and hardened by baking it in the sun or a kiln. It is very inexpensive and is environmentally friendly. And most importantly, keeps houses cool in the summer and warm in the winter.

Moroccan people:

The Berber people are Morocco’s original inhabitants but it has been touched by many cultures because of its location. As a result, its people are amongst the friendliest and most hospitable people in the world. Today, it is considered an Arab nation, but you can see the diversity of the country, particularly in the variety of languages spoken – French, Spanish, Arabic and Berber dialects.

Destination Must-Do's

Enjoy the cuisine:

When visiting Morocco you have to try a local favorite – stuffed bread. It is comparable to a flat bread sandwich in America with a Moroccan touch. This savory meal is filled with traditional fillings including beef or lamb suet, onions, parsley, and Moroccan spices – ginger, white pepper, coriander, turmeric, allspice, and cinnamon.

See the Markets:

Souks, local markets, immerse you in the culture of morocco. Every Moroccan town has a souk quarter typically named after the day of the week they are open. No matter where you are you will find busy aisles lined with vendors selling many types of products – rugs, jewelry, metals, wood and pottery, clothing, leather goods and fresh food.

Visit Rug Makers:

Traditionally, Moroccan rugs were hand woven and tied by the Berber tribe women and can take up to a year to complete. Some rugs are made as a floor covering and others are woven to hang from the wall like a tapestry. Rug designs typically depict a piece of history passed down from generation to generation, or tell the story of the weaver’s life, representing things from femininity to spirituality.

Feed the Monkeys:

Learn all about MonkeyWatch, a primate eco-tourism, anti-poaching conservation program run by the Moroccan Primate Foundation in Ifrane National Park. It works to protect the Barbary apes and macaques that live in the forests of the park. Visitors will even get a chance to feed these wonderful creatures.

Expert Advice

If you have some extra time before your tour begins to explore Casablanca, you’ll find plenty to do! Venture out to Safi, a port that has been of importance since Roman times, and view its grand ramparts and the fortress of Dar el Bahar.

You’ll find many unique gifts in the souks (local markets). When venturing out during the day, it is typically very warm so be sure to wear loose, breathable but conservative clothing. In Moroccan culture, long skirts or slacks would be appropriate, but please no short hemlines, tank tops or tight fitting clothing.

You’re in for a treat as you discover the flavors of Morocco! Be sure to try fish tagine, a mqualli (or sauce made with ginger, saffron and oil) combined with chermoula, olives and preserved lemons to add some zest and extra flavor!

Morocco - Tour Highlights and Travel Tips

Morocco is an exotic country that never stops amazing you with its sights and surrounds. From ancient towns to chaotic cities, from remote villages to gorgeous coastal resorts, the country presents a variety of things to see and do that are sure to cater to all kinds of travelers. 

Beautiful golden sand beaches, a long coastline that borders the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, four majestic mountains, vast open expanses of the great Sahara Desert, exotic vineyards and cascading rivers; some of the many beautiful things a tour to Morocco willoffer. Once you’re done with that natural beauty, you can also choose from urban explorations, desert towns such as Ouarzazate (yes, this is the town featured in movies like Prince of Persia: Sands of Time and Kingdom of Heaven).  

Tour Highlights

• Stroll the blue streets of Chefchaouen
• Ride a camel through the Sahara Desert
• Shop in the leather bazaar in old Fes
• Watch snake charmers at the Djemma el Fna square in Marrakech
• Relax in the steam bath of a traditional hammam

Travel Tips

• Exchanging money before your trip can be difficult due to Morocco’s currency laws that prevent you from bringing more than 1000 Moroccan Dirhams in or out of the country (the equivalent of about US$106). Set aside time at the airport upon arrival to exchange your currency.
• Visitors, like Moroccans, are expected to dress conservatively, especially women. Cover your shoulders, knees and chest as much as possible.
• Always ask permission before taking photographs of locals, particularly in rural areas. Some believe cameras can capture a person’s soul using black magic, so asking is always a respectful gesture.
• Be sure to pack layers, as temperatures can drop drastically at night, particularly in the winter. At the same time, daytime temperatures can exceed 40 degrees Celsius in the summer!
• As a Muslim country, Friday is the weekly holy day in Morocco. Many shops will be closed on Fridays (particularly after midday) so locals can attend prayer, so buy what you need beforehand.

Morocco has seasonal weather so please do check up on the  best time to visit Morocco  before planning your tour. And if you’re still hunting for more things to do and places to explore in Morocco, do check out our Morocco Travel Guide for more information.

• Blast through the Moroccan Sahara Dunes:  Covering 30 percent of the African continent, the Sahara Desert is one of Morocco’s top attractions. Explore the Moroccan Sahara Desert as there are endless adventures and activities you can enjoy in this sea of sand. From multi-day camel treks and sandboarding through the shifting dunes to spending nights beneath the stars at a Berber desert camp, the Sahara is a smorgasbord of fun adventures.
• Visit ancient tanneries in Fez: The ancient art of tanning leather in Fez has changed little since the 11th century. The unmistakable smell of the tannery pits floats in the air for miles. Visit Fez which is home to three vast tanneries that create one of Morocco’s most extraordinary sights. The city’s largest and oldest tannery is the Chouara Tannery. Located in the Fes el Bali near the Saffarin Madrasa, the facility is a sight to behold, with its hundreds of stone vats filled with leather. You will be given a sprig of mint to place in your nose to mask the smell but be prepared for an assault on the senses. A guide will take you through the tannery, and you will be able to get up close to watch the whole medieval process.
• Shop for souvenirs at Jemaa el-Fna Marrakech: Located in the heart of Marrakech’s ancient medina (old city), Jemma el-Fna is a vibrant, bustling marketplace and the beating heart of the city. Dating back to the 11th century, the square is one of the main cultural spaces in Marrakesh and has been designated as a Unesco Masterpiece of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity. This is the place to find a range of treasures, from leather goods and brass cups to handmade jewelry. In the evening, the square comes alive with storytellers, snake charmers, Chleuh dancing boys, magicians, and traditional medicine men. But do keep your wits about you and avoid carrying valuables when visiting Marrakech .
• Wander the Blue Alleys of Chefchaouen:  Nestled in the Rif Mountains of northwest Morocco, explore the city of Chefchaouen , or Chaouen is famous for its extraordinary blue-hued buildings. Founded in 1471, the city only began to turn blue in 1492 when Jewish immigrants settled in the city and brought a tradition of painting buildings blue. Wander around the cobblestone lanes and marvel at the beauty of the blue buildings. Visit the 15th-century fortress of Kasbah with its red walls and dark dungeons. Sunrise and sunset are magical times of the day in this city. Be sure to capture them with your camera. Visit the pretty Ras El Maa waterfall for a cool dip in the fresh mountain water.
• Relax in a Casablanca beach resort:  Kick back and relax at one of the luxurious beach resorts while you travel to Casablanca . This cosmopolitan city is often overlooked in favor of Marrakech, but it has so much to offer and beautiful beaches are just one of them. Boasting beautiful views of the ocean, most resorts here have gorgeous swimming pools, lush tropical gardens, and deluxe spas. You will also find fantastic restaurants serving top-notch local cuisine and buzzing bars.
• Relish the magnificent architecture of Rabat: Explore Rabat , the capital of Morocco which is known for its striking and unusual architecture, and if you are a lover of design, then wandering around the city is a must.

The Culture

Morocco is a country where ancient traditions blend seamlessly with vibrant contemporary expressions. Its culture is rooted in the Berber heritage visible in the music, dance, and crafts of the Atlas Mountains, while modern art and film festivals in urban centres showcase the evolving Moroccan identity. Key festivals like the Fez Festival of World Sacred Music and the Marrakech Popular Arts Festival reflect the nation's rich cultural tapestry. Moroccan literature, once limited to classical Arabic and French, now thrives in Tamazight and modern Arabic, capturing the nation's diverse voices.

Artisans in medina lanes continue to preserve time-honoured techniques in their hand-woven carpets, leatherwork, and ceramics. Islam's profound influence permeates through spiritual and social customs, with mosques and zawiyas central to community life. Furthermore, Morocco celebrates its multicultural heritage, evident in Jewish heritage sites and the Gnaoua Music Festival, underscoring a commitment to tolerance and diversity.

What is the visiting etiquette in Morocco?

Visitors should dress modestly, especially in religious sites. Greetings are formal, often with handshakes. Eating with the right hand is customary, and shoes are typically removed before entering homes. Public displays of affection and public drinking are frowned upon, while respecting privacy and avoiding loud conversations in public spaces is expected.

What is Morocco best known for?

Morocco is renowned for its rich history and vibrant culture, including its majestic palaces and bustling souks. The country is also famous for its cuisine, particularly dishes like tagine and couscous, and its significant contributions to music, cinema, and literature. Moroccan architecture, with its intricate tile work and stunning riads, is recognized worldwide.

What are some Moroccan traditions?

The primary religion in Morocco is Islam, which influences many traditions, celebrations, and daily practices. Notable events include Ramadan, Eid al-Fitr, and Eid al-Adha. The country also hosts various cultural festivals such as the Mawazine music festival and the Rose Festival in El Kelaa M'Gouna, celebrating the seasonal rose harvest.

What are Moroccan people like socially?

Moroccans are known for their warm hospitality and friendliness. Social interactions are often lively and involve close communication, with less emphasis on personal space than in some Western cultures. Smiling is common in social and commercial interactions, and while physical contact is frequent among friends, it is less so with strangers. Sports, particularly football, are widely followed and discussed.

What languages do people from Morocco speak?

The primary languages are Moroccan Arabic (Darija) and Tamazight, with classical Arabic used in formal settings and literature. French is also widely spoken and understood, especially in business and urban areas. English is increasingly understood, particularly in tourist regions. Attempts by visitors to speak Arabic or Tamazight are generally appreciated and seen as a sign of respect towards Moroccan culture.

The Best Time to Visit

Morocco offers a kaleidoscope of climates that vary dramatically with the season and region, making any time of year suitable for a visit depending on your interests. Coastal areas benefit from a Mediterranean climate that appeals to beach enthusiasts nearly year-round, while inland cities like Marrakech experience a semi-arid climate, with scorching summers and mild winters. The Atlas Mountains provide a refreshing escape during hot summers but are often snow-capped in winter, posing challenges for travel.

Spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) present ideal conditions across the country—cities are comfortably warm, mountains are ideal for hiking, and the countryside celebrates with vibrant harvest festivals. Conversely, winter offers a quiet and mild alternative for exploring urban centres and desert tours, with fewer tourists and a tranquil atmosphere.

What is the ideal time to visit Morocco?

The ideal time to visit Morocco generally falls in the spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) when the weather is mild and conducive to a wide range of activities—from city tours to mountain hikes and beach relaxation. These periods avoid the extreme temperatures of summer in the interior and the potential accessibility issues in the mountains during winter.

When is Moroccan peak tourist season?

Peak tourist season in Morocco occurs during the spring and autumn, coinciding with the most pleasant weather. The spring sees nature in full bloom and is ideal for festivals and outdoor activities, while autumn offers comfortable temperatures and fewer crowds. Summer, despite its heat, also draws a significant number of tourists, particularly to the cooler coastal regions and for vibrant cultural festivals in cities like Marrakech.

When is the most affordable time to visit Morocco?

The most affordable time to visit Morocco is during the winter months, from December to February, outside of the Christmas and New Year holidays. Prices for accommodation and tours tend to drop during this period due to lower demand. While some mountain areas might be less accessible due to snow, cities and desert regions remain inviting, offering a more peaceful and cost-effective travel experience.

How long should I plan to visit Morocco?

The length of a trip to Morocco can vary based on the depth of experience desired. A typical visit lasts about 7 to 10 days, allowing sufficient time to explore a few key regions, such as Marrakech, the Sahara Desert, and one of the coastal cities like Essaouira or Casablanca. For those interested in a more comprehensive exploration, including extended stays in the Atlas Mountains or deeper ventures into both well-known and off-the-beaten-path locations, two weeks to three weeks can be more fulfilling. This duration provides a richer immersion into Morocco's diverse cultures and landscapes.

It is not recommended to drink tap water in Morocco. It’s safer to drink bottled water, which is widely available. Using tap water for brushing teeth is generally considered safe, but it's better to avoid drinking it directly.

Food & Drink

Moroccan cuisine offers a sensory journey through its aromatic tagines, succulent kebabs, and refreshing mint tea, epitomizing the fusion of Berber, Arab, Andalusian, and Mediterranean influences. Essential to any Moroccan meal is couscous, often hailed as the national dish, alongside khobz , a traditional bread used to scoop up flavorful stews. Tagines, named after the conical clay pot they're cooked in, feature a medley of spices, meats, and vegetables, slow-cooked to perfection, symbolizing the quintessence of Moroccan comfort food. For those with a sweet tooth, delicacies like baklava and cornes de gazelle offer a delightful taste of local confectionery. While Morocco is predominantly Muslim and many locals abstain from alcohol, the country also produces its own array of wines and beers, catering to diverse palates. This rich culinary heritage, coupled with vibrant tea culture, makes Morocco a fascinating destination for food lovers.

What is Moroccan traditional cuisine?

Moroccan cuisine is celebrated for its depth of flavour and variety, with dishes like tagine, couscous, and pastilla at the heart of its culinary tradition. These meals are beloved for their intricate spice blends and the communal way in which they are often enjoyed. Tagines and couscous, for instance, are not just meals but experiences—shared from a single dish, promoting a sense of community. You can find these dishes across Morocco, from street vendors in bustling souks to high-end restaurants in major cities.

What is the dining etiquette in Morocco?

Dining etiquette in Morocco emphasizes communal and social interactions. It is common to eat with the right hand using bread as a utensil, although spoons and forks are used for certain dishes. Sitting on floor cushions around a low table is traditional, especially in homes. Guests are expected to accept the hospitality offered and leaving a small amount of food on your plate signifies that you are satisfied.

What is the drinking etiquette in Morocco?

Alcohol consumption is legal but not widely practiced due to religious reasons. It's generally consumed in private or designated tourist areas. Mint tea, however, is a national staple and is synonymous with Moroccan hospitality. Offering tea is a sign of welcome and friendship, and it is polite to accept at least one glass when offered.

Does Morocco cater to any dietary restrictions?

Moroccan cuisine naturally caters to various dietary needs. Most traditional dishes are halal. Vegetarian and vegan options are readily available, especially in larger cities, due to the abundance of vegetable-centric dishes like tagines and salads. Gluten and dairy-free options can be more challenging to find but are becoming more common in tourist-friendly areas.

What do meals typically cost in Morocco?

The cost of meals in Morocco can vary significantly. Street food and local cafes offer delicious options at very affordable prices, usually ranging from $3 to $10.

Morocco Tours & Holidays

In a place where riding a camel over dunes at sunset is not unusual, where tagines spiked with saffron perfume the air and Amazigh people herd goats on the slopes of the High Atlas Mountains, the word remarkable just doesn't cut it. Whether you're wandering the wind-battered port town of Essaouira, exploring the famous Kasbah in Aït Benhaddou or sleeping beneath the Saharan stars , a healthy dose of Maghreb hospitality will make a Morocco tour truly unforgettable.

Best time to visit morocco.

The climate in Morocco varies wildly according to the season and area of travel. In the lowlands, the cooler months from October to April are popular among visitors. This time of year is pleasantly warm to hot (around 30°C) during the day and cool to cold (around 15°C) at night. Winter in the higher regions often brings snow and can therefore get seriously cold, particularly at night. Tourists flock to the coastline from June to September for fun in the sun, with warm mostly rain-free days. Further inland it can get hot and rain is rare, which makes the best times to travel March to June and September to December. As a Muslim country, Morocco observes Ramadan. If you are planning to go on holiday in Morocco during Ramadan, it is important to consider that many restaurants and shops will either be closed or operating at reduced hours during this time.

Culture and customs

Morocco's culture has developed over centuries of influence from far and wide. Contemporary Morocco is a fascinating mix of Berber, Mediterranean, Andalucian and African traditions, which are present in the cuisine, clothing, music, language, customs and lifestyle. As an Islamic country, most Moroccans are Muslim; however, there are small populations of people who practice Judaism and Christianity. Classic examples of Islamic architecture can be observed all throughout the country and tenets of the Islamic religion are carried out in the customs and lives of the people. The 'Call to Prayer' can be heard five times a day, women are expected to dress modestly and alcohol isn't drunk by most of the population. 

Most of Moroccan society can be considered traditional, with respect for elders, connection to family and giving alms to the poor hallmarks of everyday life for many Moroccans. Hospitality is another important element of society, with warmly welcoming people into your home a time-honoured tradition and social responsibility that dates back centuries.

Eating and drinking

Intrepid believes that one of the best ways to experience a country is by eating! Whether you're sampling street food, savouring a cheap eat or indulging in a banquet, there are endless options to choose from wherever you are in the world. 

Believe the hype - Moroccan food is legendary.

Things to try in Morocco

These slow-cooked stews are synonymous with Moroccan cooking. Chicken, olive and citrus are a well-known favourites, but there are endless variations using different meats, vegetables and seasonings.

2. Couscous

Forget instant cous cous and try the real deal in Morocco. Often served with vegetables and meat, regional varieties sometimes also include everything from sweet raisins to spicy harissa or smoky almonds.

3. Fresh fruit

Morocco has an amazing array of fruit available in the markets, shops and juice bars. Choose from bananas, mangoes, oranges, avocados or peaches - eat fresh or get them whipped up in a juice.

4. Mint tea

While travelling through Morocco you'll probably drink more sweet mint tea than ever before. Offered as a gesture of hospitality when visiting someone's home or shop, it's considered impolite to refuse, so accept graciously.

Geography and environment

Located in North Africa, Morocco has the best of many worlds within its boundaries. From the sun-drenched beaches of the coast to the sands of the mighty Sahara and the snowy peaks of the High Atlas and Rif Mountains, Morocco has great variety in its landscapes and terrain. This combination of desert, woodlands, forest, mountain steppe and grasslands ensures a wide diversity of flora and fauna lives within the country.

History and government

Early history.

The land now known as Morocco has been inhabited for centuries, with Moroccan civilisation being known for its richness in history and culture. Centuries of foreign trade, invasion and dynastic rule have given Morocco many different cultural influences that are evident in today's society. From the Phoenicians who entered Morocco via the Mediterranean in the 6th century BC, to the Roman influence of 40 AD and the formation of Islamic Morocco in the years after, Morocco has evolved with the rise and fall of dynasties, formation and dissolution of empires and the birth of new governments, movements and ways of living. Reaching its height under the Berber Dynasties of the 11th and 12th centuries (the Almoravids, Almohads, Marinids and Wattasids), Morocco subsequently fell to Arab tribes in 1559. The current royal family are descendants of the Alaouite Dynasty who have largely ruled since the 1600s, despite enduring a few crises in the 18th and 19th centuries, mainly in relation to European influence in the area and surrounding countries.

Recent history

With the signing of the Treaty of Fez, Morocco was declared a protectorate of France in 1912 with Spain being allocated control of parts of Morocco, mainly in the north and south. European control was generally opposed by Moroccan citizens, with the people of Rif attempting to establish a separatist republic in 1921. Decades of opposition continued, with rioting and protests leading to increased political tension. In 1955, the road to Moroccan independence was paved by Mohammed V who negotiated reforms and the restoration of independence. By 1956, France had relinquished its protectorate of Morocco and in 1957, Mohammed V became king. In 1961, Hassan II assumed the title of King of Morocco and continued to rule until his death in 1999. His son, Mohammed VI, took over the mantle of king in 1999 and continues to rule today.

Top places to see in Morocco

1. marrakech.

Things just happen in Marrakech. One moment you're sitting down to a camel burger, the next you're chatting with a snake charmer. The labyrinthine markets are the perfect place to lose yourself but find a Moroccan memento or three.

2. Sahara Desert

The endless dunes of the Sahara will call to your inner explorer. Jump on a camel and start riding out over the sandy waves. At sunset, the desert glows rich and red and at night the stars turn the sky crystal.

3. Essaouira

The name 'Essaouira' means image, appropriate since its charm is undeniable. Within the stone ramparts, you'll find art galleries, wood workshops and whitewashed houses with bright blue shutters. Portuguese, British and Jewish influences all mingle in this artist's town.

Fes is the cultural heart of Morocco and home to some of its most iconic sights. Feel every sense come alive in the medina. Shops, dye pits and mosques all vie for space and you're as likely to see a donkey as a car.

5. High Atlas Mountains

The mountains are best explored at the ground level by foot or bicycle. Travel through Amazigh villages, up along crop terraces, down through lush valleys and past orchards, goats and Moroccan rural life. The seriously fit can tackle Mount Toubkal for incredible views.

6. Todra Gorge

This is a rock climber's heaven or the ideal place for beginners to get a taste. It's a tight squeeze in some places but a sparkling river, the odd palmeraie, Berber villages and high cliff walls make it worth breathing in for.

7. Moulay Idriss

The small Medina of ancient Moulay Idriss was once forbidden to non-Muslims. Now it is a pleasure to explore as the faithful gather to pay homage to the founding father of Islam in Morocco at the 8th-century mausoleum.

8. Ait Benhaddou

Perfectly preserved, this is one of Morocco's most picturesque kasbahs. Centuries ago it was a stop for caravans as they carried salt across the Sahara. Today, it is inhabited only by a handful of families and the odd film crew.

9. Casablanca

The very name conjures up images of war-time romance. But the real romance of Casablanca must be its French influences and the beautiful Hassan II mosque, the largest in Morocco.

10. Volubilis

Do some time travel and visit the ancient hilltop city of Volubilis, one of the Roman Empire's most remote bases. The ruins here are beautifully preserved and it's easy to believe you've stepped into the 2nd or 3rd century.

Rabat is Morocco's lively capital. Its history is long and colourful, having been host to Roman settlements, pirates, and more recently the Moroccan parliament. Stroll through the old quarter or enjoy views over the Atlantic Ocean from Kasbah des Oudaias.

12. Chefchaouen

You might recognise this city from the famous photos of its bright blue buildings. S et against a wide valley and tucked between two peaks in the Rif Mountains, much of Chefchaouen was recreated by Andalusian refugees escaping the Reconquista, so it might remind you of the hills of Spain.

13. Tangier

T he coastal town of Tangier is the gateway between the Mediterranean and Africa. Enjoy fresh seafood by the port, watch the sunset over the Atlantic or visit the Caves of Hercules.

Morocco has one of the oldest retail cultures in the world. From bargaining in age-old souqs to swiping your credit card at a modern gallery, it's all possible in Morocco. But to experience brilliant bargains, exciting finds and a dose of history, you can't go past the souqs.

It's a good idea to check with your local customs officials to ensure that you are able to bring certain items back into your home country.   Australia   and New Zealand generally have strict quarantine laws.

Things to buy in Morocco

1. Silver jewellery

Jewellery fiends will love Morocco's affinity with silver jewellery. Chunky rings, elaborate necklaces and patterned earrings can all be found for great prices, especially if you're willing to haggle.

Save room in your backpack for an iconic silver teapot and some delicate tea glasses. Morocco's silversmiths have this ancient art running through their veins, with centuries of craftsmanship being passed from generation to generation.

The quality (and price) of leather in Morocco is pretty phenomenal. Handcrafted handbags, wallets, belts and purses can be found in almost every souq around the country.

Festivals and events

Ramadan and eid.

The ninth and holiest of months in the Islamic calendar, Ramadan is observed by most in Morocco and is thought to be a time of spiritual rejuvenation. For this month, Muslims fast from sunrise to sunset - refraining from eating and drinking during daylight hours. Eid marks the end of fasting with 3 days of feasting and celebration.

Gnaoua World Music Festival

Seaside Essaouira hosts this world-famous festival that celebrates the mysterious music of the Gnaouas, brought to Morocco centuries ago via the African slave trade. Jazz, rock, blues and pop music add a contemporary flavour, although the drums of the Gnaouas are the true soul of the festival.

Casablanca Festival

Touted as a 'celebration of all things Moroccan', this annual festival includes local and international music performances, dance, art installations, theatre, workshops and street parades. This fusion of history and modernity, innovation and tradition is a shining example of what it means to be a citizen of cosmopolitan Casablanca.

While tipping isn't mandatory in Morocco, rounding up the bill and leaving spare change at restaurants and cafes is generally standard practice. Taxi drivers and porters will also accept tips, 10 dirhams is usually sufficient in this case.

What should I wear in Morocco?

While Moroccan days are generally mild-to-hot or hot-and-humid, they can give way to cooler nights – outside of the summer months, anyway. Packing layers and sensible footwear to deal with Morocco's changeable climate, uneven paths and conservative culture is always a good idea.

F emale travellers aren't expected to dress as conservatively as local women, but it’s still a good idea to pack clothing options that will allow you to cover up.

What is the internet access like in Morocco?

Morocco's cities have internet access available in internet cafes and hotel lobbies. In some cases, free Wi-Fi can be accessed in public places. Less internet access is available in rural areas, so be prepared to 'disconnect' when travelling out of Morocco's big cities.

Major credit cards are accepted by most large shops, hotels and restaurants, although smaller vendors and market stalls often only accept cash.

What is ATM access like in Morocco?

ATMs are easily found in large cities and airports, although are less common in rural and remote areas. When travelling out of the city, be prepared by having enough cash, as ATMs aren't always an option.

Is Morocco a safe destination for LGBTQIA+ travellers?

We recommend LGBTQIA+ travellers exercise discretion when travelling in Morocco as homosexuality is not widely accepted in the community. Homosexual acts (including kissing) are illegal in Morocco and can attract a fine or even a jail sentence for offenders. That said, some towns (such as Marrakech and Tangier) are considered more gay-friendly than others. As long as travellers use discretion and avoid public displays of affection, travel in Morocco should not be a problem.

For more detailed and up-to-date advice, we recommend visiting  Equaldex  or   ILGA  before you travel.
