I’ve been to Agadir and Marrakech, and there were several times I felt uncomfortable, the street vendors were often very annoying, but that happens in almost all parts of Africa from my experience. People were mostly very nice and helpful. I reccomend to dress respectfully and always be aware of your surroundings.
Just visited Morocco a few weeks ago: I definitely recommend Marrakesh, Chefchaouen, Fes, and the trip to the desert. In Casablanca I stayed only few hours to visit the mosque (worth it). The people are nice and very welcoming.
I was just in Marrakech and Agadir and loved it, but the harassment from men was awful, and every 2 seconds (particularly in Agadir). Morocco is an unbelievable country and well worth visiting, but the harassment is very intense.
I travelled Morocco with three female friends and it was fantastic! We also used a driver/guide. We got hardly any hassle.
I did a Morocco round trip with a tour. The organized days were perfectly fine, but whenever I was getting around alone, the amount of sexual harassment I experienced (not only verbal, but also physical) was shocking. I also found myself in two situations that could have ended pretty badly, but luckily my instincts kicked in and I got away. It's a beautiful country and I will definitely go back one day - but it will be with someone else (preferably male).
I was just in Morocco for 5 weeks. I spent 2 weeks traveling through Casablanca, Essaouira, and Taghazout. I personally loved Taghazout and had zero problems there on my own and felt totally safe. Essaouira was a nice spot and the Medina there felt much easier and safer for me to navigate compared to other places. The last 3 weeks of my trip were spent in Marrakech, Tangier, Chefchaouen and Oualidia. There was definitely a lot of verbal harassment anywhere I went but I was able to enjoy my time.
I went in December, I stayed in a Marrakesh riad with spa facilities I booked direct and it wasn't expensive at all. Flights with Easyjet, hotel arranged transfer. Every day I booked an excursion. I did the waterfalls, camel, and quad biking, a walking tour. I was there for 6 days.
Went to Morocco by myself. Marrakesh for 10 days. Spent the time sunbathing and swimming. Loved it. I have been massively hassled by men in many countries but actually, I found that was not such as issue as many places.
I loved Fes, Rabat, Essaouira, and Chefchaouen and had a blast on a day trip in Marrakech that included three hours on a quad in the dessert. Also enjoyed an Atlas Mountains hike that I took out of Marrakech. The only place I didn't enjoy was Casablanca. The beach was over-crowded and the city didn't really have a unique feel to it.
I went solo to Morocco and am very glad I went. I felt safe and it was easy to get around on public transport. My fave spot was Essaouira because I love beaches and seafood. I stayed in a riad right on the ocean wall.
