There are several people - who during these months - have
contacted us to ask about Morocco, to resolve some normal doubts before
traveling there are some basic advises from someone who feels a
deep admiration for this country and who gives himself to the maximum when it
is about collaborating so that people enjoy everything a place like this can
offer.

Our recommendations. Always based on our way of seeing
life and our experience.
Do not go with Anyone called Tour Guide!
Neither guides, or agencies! Unless you go to the Sahara
Desert for the first time. Having a plan means missing everything else and
traveling to adventure is not only possible, but also recommendable. Morocco is
a country that lives up to date and the plans change in a matter of minutes!
That is why it is always convenient to adapt to what the situation requires,
take a bus / train or taxi to wherever it is and once in the destination look
at one of the millions of available accommodations for 6-8 euros a night,
without reserving anything in advance. From the Riad itself, or guest house,
several and varied excursions of one or two days are continuously organized to
any nearby site of interest.
Absolutely nothing happens for traveling alone girls.
Most of you believe
that it can be dangerous, but nothing is further from reality. In Morocco,
people are very open with the tourists, provided that the tourists too are open with the Moroccan people ,
of course.
Many people recommend do not going out alone at night. I
think they are the same ones who recommend not talking with strangers. In many
cities as well, in fact, there is more atmosphere on the street at midnight
than during the day, especially in summer. And look, it's difficult. What you
obviously should not do is be at 4 in the morning lost in a street in the
medina where there is not even a soul. Not because nothing is going to happen,
but because some, like the one in Fez, with hundreds and hundreds of
labyrinthine streets, are simply impressive and should be given enormous
respect. But come on, if there was more common sense there would not be so many
tips to give.

Learn some basic things in Arabic.
You will be surprised to see how things are cheaper if you
speak their language. It is often criticized that tourists are charged more
simply for the fact of being a tourist.
Try all the meals and have.
Listen to me. I do not like avocado. Anyway, the avocado
shake will freak you out. I just do not know what it is. Y? I do not eat fish.
Do you really want to miss one of the most authentic places in Agadir , Marrakech
, Fez City...? Do not be me!
Buy Moroccan product.
If there is something I like especially in Morocco, it is
that the money you pay goes, in most cases, directly to the person who gives it
to you. And that we should encourage it. What is going to charge you more for
being from the outside? We already know. But that man lives from that you can
be sure that the leather backpacks, the hookahs and the magnets for the frigorific
are never bought by his compatriots. Of course, try to ask only for what you
really want to buy. It's not going to be that you suddenly find yourself
haggling over something that does not even interest you.
