As a woman, it is important to dress modestly, covering the shoulders and the knees. Women dressed with exposed knees and shoulders were glared at and some comments and cat calls, made. Also, as a woman, it took some time to get used to being ignored when ordering food and coffee. It is a little thing, but annoying. Also, negotiating when shopping was a bit of a grind because the vendor was almost always male, and there was usually a condescending and patronizing attitude. So be patient with that, and if you can speak French, do so, I found that people were more accommodating when I spoke French. Taking pictures of local women is really frowned upon, and were told not to do it at all. Patience is required in many situations as I found that most people did one task at a time, rather than take two or three requests. Again patience was key. If you can be patient, the people are very nice.

@ttblade Год назад

Why would any woman pay to go somewhere to be treated this way? Are you all mad or just trying to prove a point? What happened in 2018 to the two Scandinavian girls who wanted to travel to prove that the rest of the world was safer for women than their home countries should be a warning but is ignored. Their trip and their lives ended appallingly in Morocco. Clearly from your description, women are still not welcome or respected.

@uzinine7760 Год назад

Thank you Nancy you are a very cultured woman I see and you are fast and willing understanding the muslim culture. I love and respect you so much. Most just like to critisize our habits and do not bother to understand our culture. The only place to show your skin is the beach or on a rooftop out of vieuw. I like to sunbathe on the rooftop. And women need to be harsh and strict when you come so the sellers can see you aren't a pushover and need to oblige your commands. If ever disrespected in any shape or form please get a police officer as soon as possible to resolve the matter for you 🙏 Love to see you sister Take care please

@nancymccutcheon9882 Год назад

@@ttblade I am not "mad". I travelled only on a private bus, with a group of 11, along with a local driver and a local (male) guide. I am not trying to prove anything, I simply wanted to add my experience from my recent travel. I travel to other places so I can learn more about the world around me, and hopefully seek to understand and appreciate our differences as humans. When I travel to other countries that have different culture to my home country, I try to be respectful of the norms and values of the place I am visiting. I feel that if we all did a little more of that, we would be better off. There are many places in the world I won't travel to, as my research indicates that they are not safe for either men or women. And really, any country of the world can be dangerous if you go into unsafe areas, alone, at night, for example. There are good and bad people everywhere. I added my comments because this video was authored by a man who did not have the same experience as I did. The way I see it, I, as one person cannot change the norms and culture of another place. I can seek to understand and make decisions about future travel from that point. Morocco seeks to increase tourism, so if I say what my experience was, and choose not to go there again, perhaps others will feel the same as I do, and there may be some movement on the part of the country to change. And for what it's worth, suggesting I have mental health issues ("are you mad?") is just rude.

@georgericketts-hf4eu Месяц назад

Having lived here in Morocco for over 34 years, I can confidently say that tipping is not ALWAYS expected. Moroccans, in general, do not tip. Tipping, which is voluntary, takes place in places considered as being upmarket and high class. That said, following a few days of touring with an official tourist guide and vehicle driver, tipping, to show appreciation, is normal practice.

Hello. From a Moroccan. I wouldn't advise tourists to spend all their stay in cities such as Marrakech or the Sahara desert. There's a lot more in the north of Morocco. such as Anger and Ottoman or Casablanca and Rabat and Nador,houceima... Give the North a chance it's much more beautiful and open-minded. Especially for parties people go to Casablanca and have a lot of fun there Just try to avoid the poor neighborhoods of course. Marrakesh is an ancient-minded city so don't be surprised when you see a lot of catcalling and modesty. In Casablanca and Rabat and the other big cities, there are no standards for modesty no one cares.

@ChrisKermis Год назад

I’m glad you mentioned the photo weirdness. My wife is Moroccan and we visit her family regularly and I’m still taken aback by that happening. I’ve started using a Nikon which is much smaller than my mobile and it draws less attention. One thing you missed is the rising crime rate, especially in Casablanca, for Moroccans and tourists. Purse snatching is on the rise, frequently by scooter based teams, so close to the body bags are best, especially properly worn backpacks. But but be aware of your surroundings is the best rule.

@benvisagie8844 8 месяцев назад

We have just completed a 10 day 4x4 roadtrip from Marrakesh over the Atlas mountains to the Sahara and back. Our Morrocan guide was very good. When arriving we didnt wait at all, our pre arranged taxi didnt turn up, but we decided to take the first available taxi, it seems always available at a very good price. With buying carpets or anything you have to negotiate. The roads are fairly safe to travel on. Our accommodation over the 10 days were excellent. So it seems that the well known Riads/hotels etc are very good. The food was amazing. You could eat very healthy here as a tourist, from that point of view better than in some European countries. Good meat Tajines, and lots of vegatables if you want to. Very nice bread, dont expect however a big brekfist. All in all a very comfortable experience, not a lot of dont’s and do’s. If you rent a 4x4, expect it to be a used 4x4 full of scrathes and dents, but at returning it, no problems experienced with trying to accuse you of causing the damage. Actually a very tourist friendly country. And yes, dont try to film people, you wont get any good shots. Agree with the variety. If you are tired of the Europian buss and cities, Africa is it. And Morrocco one of the best. Not too extreme , but sufficiently different with very good landscape in the desert and Atlas mountains, and very interesting historic villages. No game, thats in Southern and Eastern Afica. And for that reason for me a must see destination/adventure but not one that I will necessarily teturn to. Its tiring. Very hot. And no dune driving, only sand. Guides are not trained for dune driving like in Namibia.

@nana-uf5ql Год назад

the reason why moroccan food is not commonly found in restaurants is because for moroccans traditional food is what you'll be eating at home (and it usually tastes the best when homemade) and so when going out you'd want to eat something you usually don't have in your house, like pizzas and burgers! there are still however many great places for traditional moroccan food that you will certainly find in every moroccan city

@ChrisKermis Год назад

It makes sense, but it's of course not what a visitor wants (assuming they want to eat local like me). As you say there are still great places around though and I hunted for them, and will do again next time!

Just want to add... 1. Tipping isnt expected outside of medium-nice restaurants (and even then you dont have to) - they will just chance it with foreigners (taxis and touts). Tip if you want but if they're cheeky enough to ask then don't. 2. They always (95% of the time) have change just refuse to leave until theyve given you all of it, more time theyll pretend not to realise theyve shortchanged you so check everytime dont let them get away for it even if its only 1-2 dirhams because it empowers them to do it to the next person. 3. never rock up to the train station 20 minutes before a train thinking youll be able to buy a ticket and board in that time, more often than not theres a long queue to get a ticket and the train will be sold out, book a day in advance (online or in station). 4. Finally believe me - if they work with tourists theyre going to be making a lot more than the average person so for the love of god don't pity them and pay more because i assure you they are likely living more than comfortably. This video is pretty much spot on. Youll love morocco its amazing - just so long as you stay vigilant. I know plenty of people who hated their time there because they let people walk over them wherever they went.

Petit taxis are for short, local journeys. Often they can't operate outside of a specific area such as the central area of a city. You may also find that the taxi will pick up other passengers on the way to your destination, that's standard practice, but don't expect it to mean a reduction in your own fare! Grand taxis are for longer journeys such as from one town to another, or from the city centre out to the suburbs or the airporr to your hotel. You can also get shared grand taxis, which operate more like buses. You can either pay for the whole taxi to yourself if you're in a rush, or wait for the taxi to fill up with other passengers. This will obviously be cheaper as you only pay for your share, but you may be waiting around a while for the taxi to fill up.

@andybaker2456 Год назад

@@ChrisKermis No problem! I also meant to add that the Al Boraq TGV starts all the way up in Tangier, and heads down to Rabat and Casablanca. And the fact that non-Muslims can't enter mosques is a ruling put in place by the French when Morocco was a French colony, rather than by the Muslim population. As you know, it's generally OK for non-Muslims to visit mosques in many other Muslim countries (I think Tunisia also has that restriction?). I believe there are two mosques in Morocco that can be visited though, there's one other somewhere, but off the top of my head I can't think where it is!

me?? taking notes. thanks for adding more details about the cabs and mosques. Kindly ask you about women attire. Restricions on cover head and etc. And can man wear shorts? sorry first time going to Morocco. i found this chanel amazingly helpful.

@espartanam Morocco is a fairly liberal country when it comes to dress. As non-Muslims can't enter mosques there's no need for women to cover their heads, and yes, men can wear shorts. You will hardly ever see local men wearing them (certainly above a certain age) but you as a tourist will be fine. That said, women shouldn't overdo their dress if they want to avoid attention. If you're in a beach town, don't think you can walk around town in your beachwear, save that for the beach and ONLY the beach, especially if you're wearing a bikini! Generally you don't need to dress conservatively with everything covered, just be mindful of dressing too provocatively if you want to avoid unwanted attention. Shorts (but not TOO short!) and t-shirts are fine.

Helpful tips Chris - spot on

I used to see people on the side of the road in Africa selling fruit...nothing priced, so as a tourist you knew they would rip off. They were very quiet. Another clever vendor had little bags each one $1 ...she was selling like crazy.

If you are a women just make sure you talk strong and have confidence when talking to everyone. My Mastercard dis work in different places just ask in your riad or hotel the best atm for safety issues as well. Enjoy Morroco!

Thank you for this post. Im going to Tangiers on June 6th & I'm so worried about transport.

@ChrisKermis Год назад

I’ve not been there yet but generally got around Moroccan cities just fine. Be alert as always for rip offs in taxis!

Hi Chris - thanks for the video really useful. Can I ask if contactless payments for restaurants is a thing or is it very much cash only ? thanks

@ChrisKermis Год назад

Thanks, I’m pretty sure I didn’t use it myself, but it was a year ago when I was there so things may well have changed

@mikenicolay2483 Год назад

Some things never change, taking pictures of (especially) funeral processions, in 1951-1953 could get really dangerous!

Hello, could you please tell me what type of controls are in the airport, are there neccesary any papers and how long before the flight we need to be in the airport?

@OggyBleacher 4 месяца назад

Yes, the pizza offerings is quite excessive. Most is edible but not good. Tacos are more like paninis. Snack means rotisserie chicken. Finding tajine and harira is not easy but petit dejeuner are everywhere. As well as sushi. Mint tea comes either with a huge amount of sugar or none. Good advice.

If you can survive traveling in Cairo Egypt as a tourist, Morocco is a cake walk lol

Very true. And Luxor made Cairo look like a walk in the park!

Heading there soon, these tips are really helpful, do you have any food recommendations in Marrakech for authentic Morocco cuisine?

@ChrisKermis Год назад

Thanks! Check out the latest on the web. These things constantly change. I was surprised that down the bottom of the main square you can get very cheap and decent tagines but there’s probably loads of good places
