I was there this year, mainly in Marrakesh and Essaouira, and I felt safe. Honestly, compared to other Arab countries like Tunisia or Egypt, Morocco was the most friendly country for me. As a woman, a blonde, I didn't feel overly watched or harassed.
Posted: November 13, 2024We were 4 girls, including 2 blondes. We dressed casually and did get approached, but nothing too intrusive. Life in Agadir is vibrant after 10 PM. It's worth going to the port for seafood. It's safe and beautiful there.

Felt entirely safe. Extremely welcoming people. I travelled with my friend Helen. We hired a guide who is taking us everywhere we might not find on our own, arranging everything. We went on a camel in the sand dunes, ATV tomorrow, going to a Hammam, visited a nomad family, etc etc. lovely hotels. Berber pizza!

Essaouira was an amazing experience! Great food and great people! I enjoyed it a lot. I recommend buying oysters and seafood at the port area. Gnawa music is a must, as well as horseback riding on the beach.
Posted: October 14, 2024My volunteer experience in Fès was very safe because we were supervised by the local team. We didn’t stay in one specific location, except when it was for the mission. Otherwise, we explored the entire city of Fès. As for the food, we shared traditional meals with the local team. If you come as a tourist, you can easily find these dishes in the medina. However, be mindful if you’re not a fan of sweet and savory combinations, as most traditional Moroccan dishes are like that. To be honest, Fès isn’t the most touristy city in Morocco. Aside from the new and old medina, there isn’t much to visit. Since the city doesn’t have a coast, there are paid pools that you can access for a day, typically ranging from 100 to 300 dirhams. The people are welcoming, and it’s generally a safe country for tourists. However, as a woman, you need to be cautious at certain hours, and it’s also important to respect the local dress code.
Posted: October 14, 2024Rabat which the capital of morocco is actually an expansive city compared to other ones in morocco, the accommodation is expensive if you want a nice neighborhood, the food is really great if you know where to go and I realllyy recommend TAKOTAK (they have THE best burgers ever), as for safety it depends on the places you go to like every city there are good and bad ones

Very very beautiful city un Morroco, called the blue city. Very safe, nice people, multiple options to eat. There’s a waterfall clase to the city. There is no pressure for buying as in bigger cities and there’s also art more contemporary. I really recommend going, you can go on a tour if you feel better this way. I would have preferred going on out own.

Tangier is a smaller city in nothern Morocco, and i traveled solo off season in April 2024. Overall i met the nicest people ever there but also had to experience some harassment. I recommend to not walk around alone unless its city center, because cars will stop and honk at you (no matter what you dress like). I recommend using Taxi Apps because public transport is not that reliable. Food is amazing and cheap!
Posted: August 21, 2024Experienced: March, 2024My trip to Morocco was unforgettable. The food was delicious, with vibrant flavors that truly captured the essence of the country. Exploring the desert and visiting breathtaking waterfalls were incredible experiences. One of the highlights was the lively atmosphere of Jema el-Fna, which was simply amazing.

I went in January last year, it was all round an amazing experience! Would reccomend going to the secret garden, the atlas mountains and trying chicken pastilla! I went with my mum and I won't lie I did feel a little unsafe, most people are just shop owners trying to chat or get you into their shop to earn a living but we did have one guy follow us down the street, shout at us aggressively and make a throat slit motion which was quite scary! That being said the rest of them were respectful when we said we weren't interested in buying things from their shop and backed off so I think that guy had some problems.

Tangier is safe, just avoid very local places and neighberhoods. The more youare surrounded with people the more you will be safe. Touristic places are always safe, also in the city center.
Posted: September 15, 2024My main concern about Fez for women is verbal harassment. For tourists however, there is a lot more safety. As usual when travelling, do not carry valuables with you and be mindful of sketchy settings.
