Rabat it's actually the capital of Morocco so i feel safe in it personally I've never had a hasard that happened to me in here. And also i can't deny that there is places taht a bit dangerous but there is no need to visit them it's in suburban.

Overall it is okay if you choose carefully where to go, or if you have a group to go out with. Covered areas like shopping malls, restaurants, coffeeshops etc.. have always been safe in my experience. But walking around on the street can be a bit unsafe in certain neighborhoods, so doing research before coming is a must!!

Well I travel alone between my city and others with all my safety back , I hang out after 8PM and buying what I want without carrying if somthing can happen cause it's rare additionally people are kind and you get what you want u want even if you don't have money

It’s safe just keep an eye on your belongings. Don’t walk alone at night. During the day the streets are bustling and busy. Pickpocketing is a threat in these conditions. Haven’t experienced any violence or sexual harassment

It’s a safe city generally, people here are respectful . They will respect you since your not bothering them . About verbal harassment,you might be bothered but never mind they only have to talk no one can touch you… They welcome strangers specially international.

Morocco is such a lovely land. To be honest I was just in the big cities Marrakesch and Fes, which means, I cant talk for the whole country but for the touri spots. Here are some tips I wish I knew earlier: •its incredible hot even in october-but dont underestimate the cold evenings! •never hold ur handy in ur hand without safety. Take a cord with u of put it in a bag •dont trust people in the big cities. Talking is money BUT(!!) If u are nice to them, they will be nice to u •respect the culture and religion: no short skirts, shirt over shoulder etc. Learn about ur destination
