We get a lot of questions about safety and security in Morocco, once you are there and making your way through the souks, squares and even the restaurants.
Your Destination Morocco tour director is always there for guidance and advice, as well as your local guide, for when you're first exploring a new city.
But we always want to encourage people to then explore on their own, follow your nose and see what else you can discover. If that's something you're interested in doing!
Imagine, you're in Marrakech, Fès, wandering the souks and shops, the markets and squares, and have lots of people pulling you in many different directions.
There will be people beckoning you into their shop, there will be "guides" offering to take you here or there (even if you've already been), with no guarantee that they are trustworthy.
It's an exciting, adrenaline-filled environment, and it can be a little overwhelming. Especially if you are on your own, how do you keep your wits about you, and enjoy the experience?
These things are a part of travel, and common to any country in the world. Knowing what to expect though is crucial to having an enjoyable experience.
Shopping and browsing is perfectly safe in Morocco, but to help you navigate Morocco and be prepared, we'll be answering your questions on safety, local customs and what to do in certain situations.
And take a moment to listen to our most recent episode on "Navigating Tipping and Shopping in Morocco," which covers many similar issues:
