Loved travelling here but it did feel very unsafe at points I am glad I didn't travel here alone. The activities available are amazing though so it is definitely worth it if you can find a good group of friends to go with

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.

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...

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...

It is realtively safe, you just avoid the beach and forests at night as you might meet there drunken or drugged people bit overall the risk of getting robbed or assaulted is very low since here is police almost everwhere

It is safe at day but a little bit less safe in some places at night but in general touristic places are very safe. No need to worry just make sure that you're in the public places.and be warned .the city is economic

Essaouira

Essouira feels really safe during the day. There were some shady characters in the evening near the port, but no bothered us. Keep your wits about you! I've heard outside of the Medina can be a little sketchy.

Rabat

Rabat is super safe city comparing to many others in Morocco. We can see police officers almost everywhere, the routes are easy and clean. It is also a very clean city, green . It is a safe place to visit and to live in as a woman!
