Morocco is so far from my country and I haven’t new a lot, so it was my first self trip and a haven not felt safe, I was looking for safe expensive hotels, and searching a lot of information about places and it took a lot of time. During my trip I visited 10 cities and one waterfall village in the mountain. I recommend visiting Marrakesh and Essaouira first, cities in the South of Morocco. Transport is actually modern and popular. You can travel by car, buses, trains. Buses and trains have the same cost -19€. Planes are also available, but not for all cities. Food is delicious. Good quality tasty meat, big variety of fruits and vegetables. I like species, so Moroccan use it always, what is perfect for me. I like so much moroccan bread, traditional pancakes, kuskus, tajine with vegetables or plums.

Great food, kind hearted people, and beautiful scenery! So much to see when visiting and such a peaceful country. Safe and welcoming. Visited Casablanca, Chefchoen, Tangier, and Rabat. Used Airbnb for all locations and rented a car to get around the country. Great experience.
Posted: February 18, 2024I was in Morocco for a week with two friends. We stayed in a Camp and through that had a really safe surrounding. We had the chance to go surfing every day and visited the souks. If you go to Morocco, make sure to visit those if you have the chance to. I wouldn’t do it much often, but wouldn’t miss out on it either. The locals are incredible friendly. Even though as a woman you will receive a lot of comments, nobody ever really wanted something from us. The food was amazing. We got to eat local food every day and I really miss it. There are really good vegetarian options. If you stay in a camp or volunteer in one, it is possible to stay there for a lower budget. The shops aren’t as expensive and food is easy to get as well. Overall, I would go there again in a heartbeat if I would have the chance to do so. The nature surrounding the city’s is amazing and the city’s are really pretty to visit.

We were in Marrakech for two days and also in Essaouira for three days. We are having very good times. The food is very good, and we found some vegetarian places. The prices are cheaper than in other countries, and everything is fresh. We loved the markets in the streets.
Posted: January 19, 2024Experienced: December, 2023Went with a group tour but I didnt know anyone so I got the experience of both navigating the country with a guide and other people aaand roaming around the cities alone. Even with a group tour I didnt ever really feel too comfortable but it was fine. Walking around alone was unreal, Marrakesh specifically is the ninth circle of hell. Constant catcalling, pulling, approached by strange men who said terrible things to me (I was dressed appropriately, only my head and arms showing), followed around for ridiculous periods of time. If I went without an agency who booked all the activities and flights I wouldve gone home earlier. Fez and Casablance were similar. Chefchaouen and Essaouira were really pleasant. If you go alone stick to coastal towns and Chefchaouen, avoid Marrakesh like the plague.
Posted: January 17, 2024I undertook a 9-day solo trip to Morocco and despite initial fears about traveling alone in Morocco, I had an incredible time. Men were pushy, I was catcalled and had to haggle a lot, but I used common sense, ignored most people, trusted my judgment, and saw amazing places in this country. I visited Marrakech, the Atlas Mountains (a day trip), Fez, Chefchaouen, and Casablanca.
Posted: December 30, 2023I traveled solo through Morocco last May. I fell in love with Chefchaouene (it's relatively small, but the most soothing and beautiful) and enjoyed my stay in Rabat, Marrakech, and Casablanca. I didn't like Fes, to be honest, I found it quite boring. Morocco, in my opinion compared to other countries, is very easy to travel. The train and bus system is great. The only time I needed a group tour was for the desert, otherwise I managed well on my own.
Posted: December 25, 2023I spent 2 weeks there myself and had a great time. As in any country, you just have to be sensible, but I felt quite safe there. I was in Marrakech for 4 days, then I took a desert tour and met a few people who were also there on their own, and then I went to Taghazout, which was beautiful, and there were also a lot of solo travelers there. I highly recommend visiting Morocco.
Posted: December 19, 2023I was in Morocco for three weeks. However, I spent one week with another girl, and the rest of the time I was alone and felt completely safe. I had no problems. Everyone was extremely polite and helpful. I absolutely loved it there. If I asked for directions - they guided me. I asked which bus to take from the centre of Marrakech to the airport (public transport can be confusing) and they were so kind to walk me to the place where the bus stops. However, I must add that I am an experienced backpacker with confidence and a good knowledge of English and Spanish, as well as a little French. Perhaps this made my experience so good, but I simply loved being there, I would recommend it to all my (female) friends, and I will definitely return. The food was amazing. And all the colorful markets were astounding. It was also cheap. It really is an incredible country, but I recommend using common sense. I didn't walk around alone in the dark nor did I flaunt my money.
Posted: December 18, 2023It was a interesting experience for me . Marakesh is a culture mix state. I feel in a dream. Fez is a state like in Time teavel . Berberian state is very natural. Local people seems so poor and it was some sadly. Other was this country very exciting...
