Morocco, Solo travel

Absolutely loved it and I would go back in a heartbeat. The food was amazing, the people were kind, I felt safe. I really enjoyed taking in the beautiful architecture, scenery, and culture. There was so much to experience and I feel like two weeks allowed me to scratch the surface. Bussing locally, intercity, and taking the train was so easy.

I worked there in a surf camp. When I first arrived it definitely was a bit a cultural chock. The streets are very dirty, the cars are driving like crazy and the overall infrastructure felt a bit neglected (compared to what I knew from Germany). The guests were mostly European and the staff was international as well as local. It was a good vibe. All in all it was a very good experience. Turists have to be a bit careful regarding prices. They know quickly that you don’t come from there and then...

Lovely city, great infrastructure, much more modern than I expected, people are kind overall. They have a hard time with language, most of them speak only Arabian or some of them speak French, this is especially difficult at restaurants and supermarkets, but in the local markets it is different, they will very likely talk to you in your first language without a problem. At night it's very likely that homeless people will ask for money or food, but they don't get aggressive, it's a bit...

Marrakech-Safi

I personally found it very safe. The Medina is quiet and empty and night so like any major or modern city, I wouldn't recommend being out in the dark alone. I traveled by bus, cab, and train and found all methods very easy and safe.

I personally felt safe but like any form of travel have your wits about you. Don't walk the Medina alone at night, the streets are empty in spots and like any modern city ally, there can be issues. Personally I had none, but I was mindful and I watched my phone and used a waist bag. I visited Marrakech, Merzouga, and Essouira. I also took the train and bus. I found it very easy and comfortable.

The city center is really safe for travelers, especially females, you need just to pay attention with some pack pockets, otherwise you will feel safe, and try to avoid the surroundings area of the city
