My experience in Morocc0
For a long time, I dreamt of visiting Morocco. Ever since I saw pictures of the country on Pinterest, I was HOOKED. However, it took a while for me to bite the bullet and book a flight. Mostly because I had heard that it was unsafe for solo female travellers. As a woman who loves to travel alone, I was apprehensive.
Despite this, I felt a pull like no other to discover this wonderful country. After years of putting it off, I decided I could no longer wait and booked a flight to Marrakech. I just wish I would have done it sooner.
In August 2018, I landed in Morocco for the first time. It was nighttime, but my first impressions of the country were great. Upon arriving at my hostel, the owner made me some mint tea which I enjoyed on the rooftop as the call for prayer echoed in the distance.
In the two weeks that followed, I explored the chaotic medinas of Morocco, wandered the picturesque blue streets of Chefchaouen and camped overnight in the Sahara Desert.
To end my trip with a bang, I booked a spa day at La Mamounia – the fanciest hotel in Marrakech. It was the perfect thing to do before jumping on the flight back home.
By the time I left, Morocco had secured the number one spot on my list of favourite countries. I fell in love with the sights, smells and sounds of this bustling country, blown away by the colours and patterns I saw around each corner.
As a textile designer myself, exploring the creative side of Morocco was what drew me in to begin with and it certainly didn’t disappoint.
After a few years of travelling across the globe visiting dreamy destinations such as Italy, Turkey and the USA, Morocco was still number one. With the newfound freedom of self-employment, I decided to head back to the country once more. This time for a whole month!
During this month-long adventure, I returned to cities such as Marrakech, Fez and Chefcahouen, but I also discovered new ones.
I spent a few days checking out the top attractions in Rabat, marvelled at the beauty of the Hassan II Mosque in Casablanca and relaxed in the coastal town of Tamraght.
Over the years, I’ve visited most of Morocco’s top destinations, but that won’t stop me from going back. In fact, I’m considering an even longer trip to the country next year, so watch this space!
Is Morocco safe?
When I booked my first trip to Morocco in 2018, everybody told me I was crazy. Apparently, Morocco was very unsafe and travelling there alone as a woman was a BIG mistake, but is that true?
After many discussions with concerned friends and colleagues, I discovered that many of them had visited Morocco a long time ago. What they might not realize is that Morocco had undergone remarkable transformations since then, evolving into a much more secure destination for tourists and adventurers.
After travelling to Morocco twice as a solo female traveller, I would say it’s a safe country. Although it’s a lot more challenging than European getaways or road-tripping through Canada, it’s also more rewarding. Once you return home, you’ll feel an overwhelming sense of achievement from navigating a more challenging adventure.
That being said, it’s important to be well-prepared. There are some things to keep in mind as you travel in Morocco. Here are some guides about safety to ensure your trip is as smooth and enjoyable as possible:
Do you need a visa to visit Morocco?
As long as you don’t plan on staying longer than 90 days, travellers from most countries won’t need a visa to visit Morocco.
However, you’ll need to make sure that your passport is valid for at least six months upon arrival. You’ll also need an outbound flight within the 90-day period. If you want to stay longer, you need to apply for an extension.

What to wear in Morocco
If you’re heading to this North African gem, you may be wondering if there is a dress code in Morocco. What’s best to wear as you explore the souks or wander around mosques?
Although there isn’t a strict dress code for tourists, it’s important to take local culture and religion into consideration. Morocco is a Muslim country and as such, you should aim to dress modestly. Not only is this respectful, but it will also help avoid unwanted attention.
Both men and women should aim to cover their shoulders and knees. This is especially true when visiting religious sites such as the breathtaking Hassan II Mosque in Casablanca.
Wearing sleeveless tops, as well as shorts or skirts that are above the knee, may be deemed inappropriate. You should also avoid wearing super tight or revealing clothing for the same reason.
On both of my trips to Morocco, I typically wore floaty culottes, midi dresses or skirts that come below the knee. I’d pair these with tops and t-shirts that were not too figure-hugging.
While I still received a lot of attention (probably due to the fact I was a woman walking around solo), I feel it would have been much worse if I’d dressed differently.
If you’re a man heading to Morocco, I recommend wearing loose-fitted trousers that come below the knee with T-shirts. However, it’s worth noting that men don’t receive as much hassle as women.
In terms of footwear, you may sometimes need to remove your shoes to enter mosques. As such, wearing something that you can easily slip off is advisable.
You should also remember that Morocco is a hot country and you could be wracking up a lot of steps. Due to this, you should wear suitable footwear.
If you’re heading to the beach, it’s generally considered okay to wear swimwear. Just make sure you cover up when you’re not swimming or sunbathing.
Best time to visit Morocco
The best time to visit Morocco typically depends on what you prefer in terms of weather and crowds. However, here are some quick guidelines:
February to May
Having spent a month in Morocco in February, I can confirm it’s one of the best times to visit the country. At this time of year, the weather is warm enough to dine outside and enjoy the sun during the day. In fact, it’s hot enough to sunbathe on the beach.
In February, the evenings are much cooler and rain is more likely. During my month in Morocco, I experienced two rainy days in February. However, coming from the UK, that was pretty blissful!
Between March and May, the weather gets better still with fewer rainy days and higher temperatures.
In terms of crowds, things get busier in Morocco from March onwards as travellers want to avoid the insane summer heat. If you’d prefer to skip the crowds, opt to travel in February or explore lesser-visited destinations instead.
Summer in Morocco
If you’re a sun lover, the best time to visit Morocco is between the months of June and August. During this time, Morocco summer is in full swing and you’ll be treated to sunshine galore.
However, you should note that temperatures reach highs of 45°C which can be pretty unbearable at times (unless you’re sipping cocktails by a pool of course). I’ve personally visited Morocco in summer and it was far too hot for my liking!
September to November
Similarly to earlier in the year, September to November is a good time to visit Morocco. Temperatures are much more bearable which makes it much easier to explore. However, it’s another busy time to visit as the weather is ideal at this time of year.
Travelling around Morocco
With a fantastic transport network, getting around in Morocco is relatively easy depending on where you are going. For example, if you’re heading to big cities such as Fez, Marrakech and Chefchaouen, you’ll find them pretty well connected via multiple routes.
It’s only when you want to head off the beaten path that it gets more difficult. Regardless, there are a number of great ways to get around the country such as:
Catching CTM Buses: Travelling by bus is one of the cheapest ways to travel around Morocco. However, in some destinations, routes may be limited.
For example, when travelling between Rabat and Chefchaouen, there are only three services per day. This is something to keep in mind if you use this method of transportation.
Travelling by train: Travelling by train is another cheap way to get from A to B. Typically, services are also more regular allowing for a change in plan if needed.
Utilising guided tours: Not only is this a great way to meet like-minded people if you’re travelling solo, but joining guided tours is a fab way to get to spots that can’t be reached via public transport. Typically, transportation is also in a comfortable air-conditioned vehicle.
Hiring a car: If you prefer to travel at your own pace, hiring a car is another good option. However, be wary. Some roads in Morocco can be a little problematic, even for locals.
Luxury private transfers: Private transfers allow you to explore at your own pace as the driver is hired to take you on your desired journey. This is a great way to get around the country but be prepared to pay a premium.
Travelling by taxi: If you’re travelling in a larger group, spilling the cost of a taxi will typically be more comfortable than public transport. Plus, you can also ask the driver to make stops along the way should you wish to do so.
Jumping on a flight: Long journeys on trains or buses can be pretty tiring, especially in the Moroccan heat. To avoid long journeys in hot weather, consider booking a flight instead. Depending on the journey, you could get to your destination much quicker.

How much does a Morocco trip cost?
If you’re hoping to visit Morocco, you’re likely wondering how much you will spend. As someone who has spent a lot of time in the country, I can share that it’s definitely one of the more budget-friendly destinations across the globe.
For example, you can book a bed in a hostel for as little as £5 per night and private rooms for £10 per night. Furthermore, eating out is relatively cheap unless you dine at high-end restaurants and hotels.
The average cost of enjoying a meal out in Morocco is around £8 (100 MAD). This includes a main meal and a drink in a cheap local eatery. However, breakfast and lunch dishes can be cheaper and it most definitely depends on where you go.
In terms of activities, most attractions typically cost between £1.60 (20 MAD) to £8 (100 MAD) to enter. Depending on how many attractions you typically visit per day, you can expect to spend around £24 (300 MAD) on sightseeing.
If you’re heading on a day trip or an adventurous multi-day tour to the desert, expect to pay a little more.
Ultimately, Morocco is quite a cheap country and you can easily get by on around £50 (625 MAD) or less per day.
However, with luxury riads, private tours and lots of shopping, the sky is the limit on how much you can spend on a trip to Morocco.
Scams in Morocco
Unfortunately, there are a fair few scams that you need to look out for as you travel around the country. I’ve experienced some myself and witnessed others being scammed in Morocco. It’s easily done, so make sure you keep an eye out for things such as:
- “Free” photo opportunities in Jemaa El Fnaa
- Henna tattoos
- Directions from locals
- Closed attractions
- Fake guides
- High prices in the souks
Food to eat in Morocco
One of the best things about exploring a new country is trying the local delicacies. Morocco is no different!
The country offers countless flavoursome dishes such as cous cous, tagine, harira and many more. In terms of drinks, grabbing a pot of fresh mint tea should become part of your daily routine.

Best places to visit in Morocc0
Atlas Mountains
Home to awe-inspiring landscapes, remote villages and breathtaking natural beauty, the Atlas Mountains are a must-see while exploring Morocco.
The High Atlas is where the magic happens! Home to some of the highest peaks in North Africa, it’s a paradise for hiking enthusiasts and adventurers. With trails that lead through lush valleys and ancient villages, this part of Morocco is also great for budding photographers (like me).
If you’re looking for a once-in-a-lifetime experience, taking a tour of the Atlas Mountains often includes lunch in a local house. On my first trip to Morocco, this was one of the best things I did.
Not only were the family incredibly friendly, but the views from their home were INSANE. It was the perfect spot for a bite to eat and left a lasting impression on the whole group.
Ourika Valley is also located in this area of Morocco and offers incredible waterfalls, beautiful views and crafts galore. Adding it to your tour of the Atlas Mountains is a must-do!
Casablanca
Situated in the heart of Casablanca, the Hassan II Mosque is an architectural masterpiece. In fact, I’d say that it’s one of the most impressive buildings I’ve ever seen (and I travel a lot). If you’re heading to the city, it’s without a doubt one of the best things to do in Casablanca.
Aside from this incredible structure, some other things you can’t miss in Casablanca include Arab League Park, Morocco Mall, Muhammed V Square and the United Nations Square.
On the hunt for food? Then head to Ricks Cafe! This is one of the most famous places to eat in the city thanks to its beautiful decor, great service and fantastic food. Its interior is also influenced by the 1942 movie Casablanca.
Something to keep in mind if you’re travelling alone in Morocco is that Casablanca has a bit of a reputation. After meeting a lovely Moroccan man staying at my hostel in Rabat, he told me that even Moroccans from other cities can easily get robbed here.
I also met a young traveller who had her phone snatched out of her hand while in the city. Having travelled extensively across Morocco as a solo female traveller, I felt wary in Casablanca. Compared to everywhere else I’ve been in Morocco, I didn’t feel particularly safe and I was glad I didn’t stay overnight.
Regardless, checking out the Hassan II Mosque was one of the highlights of my month in Morocco. While I’d highly recommend seeing this place for yourself, you should be careful while in the city and take extra precautions.
Chefchaouen
If you’ve ever seen photos of Morocco’s blue city on Pinterest and Instagram, you’re no doubt looking at the city of Chefchaouen.
This picture-perfect city nestled at the bottom of Morocco’s Rif Mountains, it’s known for its enchanting blue-washed streets.
This Moroccan gem draws in travellers with its serene atmosphere, vibrant culture and captivating beauty, but there is more to the city than its blue walls.
As you wander the streets of Chefchaouen, you can explore the Kasbah Museum – home to a beautiful garden, an old prison and a tower that offers amazing views from the top.
Art lovers will be in their element in this city with traditional handicrafts, textiles and local artistry around each corner.
In fact, wandering in and out of the charming little stores is one of my favourite things to do in Chefchaouen. Compared to most cities in Morocco, you’ll receive much less hassle here.
Overlooking the whole city, hiking up to the Spanish Mosque is a must-do as you explore Chefchaouen. It’s a beautiful monument and viewpoint that offers breathtaking panoramic views of Chefchaouen and its surroundings.
As you reach the top after a leisurely stroll from the medina, you can treat yourself to some mint tea and snacks as you enjoy the incredible views.
It’s one of the best spots in the city to do a bit of people watching and personally, I spoke to a number of lovely locals there. How nice is that?
Another one of the best things to do in Chefhcaouen is to take yourself on an Instagram mission. With so many lovely photo spots in Morocco’s blue city, you’re spoilt for choice when it comes to photo opportunities!
Lastly, don’t miss the Akchour Waterfalls. This spot is a must for nature enthusiasts!
Essaouira
Essaouira is a popular choice when it comes to day trips from Marrakech, but it’s well worth staying for a few days in my opinion.
Although I’ve only ever spent a day in Essaouira, I was obsessed with the laid-back vibes and 100% plan to stay for longer on my next trip to the country.
This well-loved city is a coastal haven on the coast of Morocco offering historical attractions, a beautiful beach and a cool creative scene that’s just waiting to be explored. Located on the Atlantic coast, you’ll feel the fresh sea breeze as soon as you arrive!
The city’s medina is a UNESCO World Heritage site and it’s like stepping into a time capsule. It’s the perfect place to shop for souvenirs and admire beautiful Moroccan rugs.
The whitewashed buildings and blue details give offer a much calmer vibe than the chaotic souks of Marrakech and Fez.
You can get lost in the narrow streets, discover artisan workshops and find lots of lovely little trinkets to take home with you. It’s without a doubt one of the best things to do in Essaouira!
The city is also home to a picture-perfect harbour and the historical City Walls – two things totally worth adding to your itinerary. Both offer lovely views of the ocean and lots of photo opportunities. Your Instagram feed will thank you! Plus, it’s a lovely spot to watch the sunset if you’re on the hunt for beautiful views.
Whether you’re a beach lover, art enthusiast or just seeking a laid-back escape, Essaouira has got you covered!
Fez
Fez is one of the most visited cities in Morocco and it isn’t hard to see why. Boasting impressive history, breathtaking views and incredible architecture, there’s no wonder it’s a popular spot for tourists and travellers.
Well known for its medina, the winding alleyways of the souks have over 9 THOUSAND streets making it the largest medina in the world (and subsequently a UNESCO World Heritage Site). Home to a number of popular Fez attractions, it’s the best place to stay if you’re hitting up the city.
However, there are also places worth visiting outside of the medina. More notably, Borj Nord, Dar Batha and the Marinid Tombs.
Lover of art? Then you may also want to make a stop at Art D’ARGILE. This family-run tile manufacturer will take you on a guided tour of their factory, showcasing how they make mosaic items and beautiful pottery.
The people who run this place are incredibly friendly and as a creative myself, I found seeing the whole process super interesting! They also offer pottery classes so you can create a handmade keepsake from your trip. Isn’t that cool?
It’s worth noting that to see all the best sites outside of the historical centre in a day, you will need a tour guide. They’ll take you around in an air-conditioned car to all the best spots including the world-famous Fez tanneries. By the end of your tour, you’ll have seen many of the top attractions in the city.
If you’re heading to this beautiful country, there are definitely some things to keep in mind. One of my top tips for visiting Fez is to act confident. Out of everywhere I’ve been in Morocco, I’ve received the most hassle in this city.
However, it’s pretty harmless. By walking with confidence and ignoring any comments, you’ll have a great time!
Marrakech
As one of the best Morocco cities to visit, Marrakech is one of the top destinations in the country. With so much to see and do, you can easily keep yourself entertained for weeks. From the blissful vibes of the Secret Garden to the vibrant medinas, Marrakech truly has it all!
Spend your days admiring the beauty of Jardin Majorelle, admire stunning photos at the House of Photography and check out old palaces such as Badi Palace and Bahia Palace.
Don’t forget to grab a drink overlooking the chaos of Jemaa El Fnaa for an hour or so. This is best done during sunset!
Once you’re done exploring the sights of the city, check out some of the best hammams in Marrakech or treat yourself to a spa day at the world-famous La Mamounia. Afterwards, head to El Fenn to enjoy rooftop cocktails with a view!
Feeling peckish? Then no guide to Marrakech would be complete without mentioning where to eat. Some of the best restaurants in the city include Le Jardin (a personal fave), L’Mida and NOMAD.
If you’re looking to escape the hustle and bustle for a day, there are many amazing day trips from Marrakech worth considering!
For example, you may want to head to the coastal city of Essaouira, journey through the Atlas Mountains or camp overnight in the Sahara Desert. The choice is yours!
Meknes
Despite being one of Morocco’s imperial cities, Meknes typically flies under the radar. However, it’s a city rich in history, culture and Moroccan charm making it well worth visiting on your Morocco itinerary.
If you’re heading to the ancient city of Volubilis on a day trip from Fez, it’s worth combining it with a visit to Meknes. While there, you can explore historical landmarks such as Lahdim Square, the Royal Stables and the Mausoleum of Moulay Ismail.
Another place worth visiting in Meknes is Dar Jamai Museum; a unique museum that showcases interesting facts about regional music across Morocco.
It’s also housed in a stunning building with a beautifully serene garden to escape the chaos of the city. Simply put, it’s a must-see!
While you probably don’t need more than a day or two in Meknes, history lovers and music enthusiasts won’t want to miss it. Trust me.
Ouarzazate
Dubbed the gateway to the Sahara Desert, many tourists will stop by Ouarzazate on their way to a desert adventure. Most will visit Ait Ben Haddou, an impressive UNESCO World Heritage site that takes you back in time with its maze-like streets and captivating views from the top.
It’s a fascinating place to explore with photo opportunities around each corner, unique crafts and friendly locals that are happy to talk about local culture.
On my first visit to this Moroccan gem, my tour group visited a carpet shop. We learnt all about how these amazing Moroccan rugs are made and I was in my element surrounded by colour and pattern!
Another interesting thing about Ait Ben Haddou is that many movies and series have been filmed here. If you’ve watched films such as Gladiator, The Mummy or The Jewel of the Nile, you’ll no doubt recognise your surroundings.
Other things to do in Ouarzazate include visiting the Cinema Museum, admiring the Taourirt Kasbah and shopping for goods in the souks.
If you’re on a road trip through Morocco, it’s worth stopping overnight here. As many people only stop in the area for an hour or two, you’ll experience much fewer crowds if you stay a little longer. It’s something I’d love to do on my next visit to the country!
Rabat
As the capital of the country, Rabat is a must-see on your trip to Morocco. Despite its modern vibe, the city boasts a perfect mix of history, culture and old-world charm. It’s also way more relaxed than cities such as Fez and Marrakech.
With lots of military officials around, it’s also one of the safest cities in the country. As such, if you’re heading to Morocco for the first time, it’s a fab place to start your trip.
It can be a challenging country to explore so by starting in Rabat, you can slowly ease into the chaos that other cities have to offer.
If you’re looking for historical sites, the Kasbah of the Udayas is a must-visit. This old picture-perfect fortress overlooking the sea will make you feel like you’re on a European getaway.
Plus, its on-site cafe serves the most delicious Moroccan cookies you’ll ever taste! I loved them so much, I went back several times.
After exploring the old Kasbah, wander straight into the nearby Andalusian Gardens. This place is an oasis in the middle of the city, offering the perfect spot for a relaxed stroll away from the crowds.
In terms of other attractions, there are many things to do in Rabat. For example, the Hassan Tower and the Mausoleum of Mohammed V are located in the same complex and are completely free to check out.
They showcase the beauty of Moroccan architecture and charm. Simply put, they shouldn’t be missed during your trip to the Moroccan capital!
If you’re a fan of art like I am, you’ll want to visit the Mohammed VI Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art. After visiting many art galleries in Morocco, this is without a doubt one of the best. With a fantastic selection of modern and contemporary art on display, you’ll be blown away by the impressive craftsmanship.
Rabat also has a beach which means you can hit up historical attractions, serene gardens and relaxing beaches all on the same day. How cool is that?
Sahara Desert
I’m a strong believer that camping overnight in the Sahara Desert should be on everyone’s Morocco bucket list. After doing it twice, the memories I’ve made have been highlights on both of my Moroccan adventures.
Imagine stepping foot in one of the world’s largest deserts, admiring its vast landscapes and sweeping dunes. Imagine the sand beneath your feet as you take in mesmerising sunsets away from the crowds of Morocco’s big cities. Imagine the warm welcome of your camp hosts as they showcase the beauty of Moroccan hospitality with mint tea and delicious food.
That sounds incredible, right? But that’s not all the desert has to offer. You can also go on thrilling excursions such as quad biking, sand surfing and more.
If you can, it’s worth staying for more than one night to truly experience what the Moroccan desert has to offer!
In terms of getting there, your best bet is to join a guided tour to the Sahara Desert from large cities such as Marrakech or Fez.
These tours tend to be reasonably priced and typically make a stop in Ait Ben Haddou (which is another must-see in the country). If you’re travelling solo in Morocco, this is a great way to meet like-minded people.
Tamraght
When planning a Morocco itinerary, many people skip Tamraght. However, this charming Berber village on the coast of the country is well worth visiting. Especially if you’re spending longer than two weeks in Morocco.
Tamraght is renowned for its laid-back vibe and beautiful beaches. This makes it the perfect spot to enjoy a bit of surfing or relaxation.
Tamraght’s location along the coastline makes it a fab spot for catching some waves. Especially since it’s off the beaten path so crowds are always minimal.
Other nearby beaches in the likes of Taghazout also make this area of Morocco a prime surfing destination.
If like me you’re not into surfing, don’t fret! The area is also ideal for chilled-out beach days. Just grab a book, beach towel and some snacks then you’re good to go.
After travelling around Morocco for a month, this is how I spent my last day in the country. Let me tell you, it was glorious!
While Tamraght itself is pretty small, it’s a convenient base for exploring nearby attractions. The city of Agadir is a short drive away, offering a range of amenities, dining options and cultural experiences.
It’s also a great spot to stay if you’re flying out of Agadir Airport (just as I did on my latest trip to Morocco).
Other places to visit in Morocco
While the places listed above are definitely some of the best places to visit in Morocco, there is more to this country than the tourist hotspots.
If you can, you should also try visiting the following places on a trip to this wonderful country:
- Agadir
- Imlil
- Tangier
