How safe is Marrakech-Safi?

Marrakech was beautiful. But the only thing it's men looking at you in the street. While you are passing through la medina a lot of whispers and men looking at you. I didn't go out at night. But during the day I felt safe. Actually I took taxis and motos by my own and was good.
Posted: September 20, 2025Marrakech is night city , it is a pretty safe city as it is in a muslim country. Everyone is helpful and very kind. And it is a very touristic place , locals are used to having foreign people here.

I didn't have a large budget and I stayed in a hostel in the Medina. This can be a little scary if you're not used to the hustle and bustle of a busy market especially going back at night! I did feel moderately safe but I can understand if others did not. I ended up meeting up with some girlies from online travel groups which was great, and I also met another solo girly on an excursion. I had the most fun on the day trips and activities that we organised, and I do recommend Marrakech!
