Frequently asked questions

DO I NEED A PASSPORT WHEN ENTERING MOROCCO ?

You will not be able to enter Morocco with only an identity card. A passport is requisite. This applies even to residents of countries in the Schengen Area. If you reside in a country outside the Schengen Area, We advise you to contact your country’s embassy in Morocco for information about entry into Morocco.

WHERE TO EXCHANGE CURRENCIES?

The currency in Morocco is the Dirham. There is no limit to how much money you can bring into the country but it is forbidden to export local currency. You’ll be able to change your currency on location. In all big cities, you’ll find distributors where you’ll be able to take out money with your credit card.

SAFETY IN MOROCCO:

Morocco is a safe country. Tourism is an activity essential to the country and its economy and foreigners are more than welcome. The roads are in good condition but drivers must always stay vigilant because of traffic and the weather.

ACCOMMODATION IN MOROCCO:

Morocco offers every kind of accommodation from tiny mountain inns to five star hotels. We suggest you choose the charm of local and more intimate establishments than large chain hotels often located in the outskirts of cities. You’ll leave with a much more authentic experience and fuller appreciation of Moroccan culture this way, and there is something for every taste and budget.

WHAT IS THE BEST TIME FOR TRAVEL IN MOROCCO?

Morocco is perfect for travel all year long! Given the country’s geographic variety, there is always a region where the climate is mild. We can recommend the best destination for you based on the weather and your travel dates. In winter, you’ll want to head south to the desert. Nights can be chilly but during the day you’ll enjoy the sun and blue skies bereft of clouds. In summer, the Atlantic coast is generally balmy and it is the best season for treks in the Atlas.

CAN WE LEARN TO PREPARE MOROCCAN FOOD?

Many riads now offer culinary workshops to their clients. You may yet have the pleasure of feasting upon the product of your own labours and sharing it with your loved ones! We can reserve a cooking class for you in a stunning setting in the medina.

ACCOMMODATION IN MOROCCO:IS A CAMEL TREK TOUR FOR EVERYONE?

Almost everyone! We do not allow children under 5 years of age. For beginners, each camel is attached to the one in front and on the saddle you’ll have a pommel to hang on to. You are not at all obliged to ride all the time and can easily alternate walking and riding. Camel drivers guide the animals and will be very helpful when the camel stands up and sits back down.
