Safe but don’t trust in people they may cheat you on the price of things and raise the prices. They also try to force you to buy things from them or eat. Most of them are kind, but some try to force you to do things, so be careful. They are generally kind people, but beware of going into the old city at night, especially in the late hours and in the alleys that are dark. Always go to public places that are full of people. If you are exposed to any harm, go to the police because they are quick to take action and will help you.
Posted: March 28, 2025I did grow in marrakech and its a very modern and alive city where many communities coexist , you can't easily find urself alone in principale roads even late at night wich is greatly reassuring for a solo female traveler.
Posted: February 3, 2025It is safe, just avoid empty and dark Alley's at night and stay aware of your surroundings. Don't roam around in places you don't know alone, and be firm (don't be overly nice to strangers). If you're not sure about something just ask someone around, people are helpful.
Posted: January 12, 2025I found Marrakech to have a high level of harassment, comments, catcalling and aggressive sales techniques. During the nighttime it was relatively quiet but I did not feel safe due to behaviours during the day.

My hometown is one of the most famous touristic destinations in the world, as a girl I feel very safe to go out alone at night, I usually find myself followed by undercover cops who keep me company or try to protect me (as a local I developed the skill to recognize cops from normal people 😂) everywhere I go, everyone is helpful and even guys are protective and either give me advice or keep me company to make sure I’m safe even if it’s not needed, people would show me the way if I seem lost without me having to ask.. in daytime people invite me for tea everywhere (this is the way we do it in Marrakech) and so much more

It was a nice sunny city with little alleys everywhere just a tad bit overpriced for the average moroccan salary tbh, also make sure to always negotiate and if you want to buy pottery souvenirs try going to Oulja in Salé instead, a whole lot cheaper!!!!!!! Almost half the price
