Morocco

The first thing that comes into my mind when I think of Morocco is its superb, colourful buildings, its flavourful mint tea and the golden desert as well. Ah, and needless to say about its gorgeous imperial cities: Marrakesh, Fes, Rabat and Meknes. And did I mention the colourful markets as well? And the beaches… ah, there are SO many things to do in Morocco and unique sights to see, I don’t even know where to begin!

Best destinations in Morocco? Hard to choose, even harder to put into words. First, there’s Marrakesh with its souks, cathedrals, pastel architecture and the world-famous Majorelle Gardens, an oasis of relaxation in the middle of the city. Another one on my list of best cities to visit in Morocco is Fes with its unforgettable mosaics and leather tannery, as well as its authentic vibe. Plus Chefchaouen with its striking blue buildings, something you won’t witness anywhere else in the world. And let’s not forget about the trips to the Sahara Desert which you can explore by camel, horse or ATV.

You better start creating your list of best things to do in Morocco soon, ‘cause there’s so much to do and see here, you won’t even believe it! Before going, I recommend checking out all my articles about this country here in order to create the best Morocco itinerary for you.

Things to know 
before you go to 

Morocco

Currency

The official currency in Morocco is the Moroccan dirham (DH). 1 USD is the equivalent of 8.98 DH.

Visas

Luckily, you won’t need a visa for Morocco if your visit lasts less than 90 days. But I do recommend to check the up-to-date information for your nationality on consulat.ma.

Languages

The official language spoken in Morocco is Arabic. There’s also a second official language called Amazigh.

Vaccines

No officially required vaccines for entering the country, but make sure you’re up-to-date with your routine ones. And just for your own safety, you might consider getting vaccinated for Hepatitis A and Tetanus.

Electrical Plugs

Morocco uses two plug types: C and E. Type C has 2 round pins, while type E has 2 round pins and a hole for the socket's male earthing pin. Electricity runs on 220V and 50Hz.

SIM Cards

Countless companies offer packages for prepaid SIM cards to travellers right at the airport or at the tobacco kiosks in the cities. The two most popular companies are Maroc Telecom and Orange.

Religions

99% of the population in Morocco is Muslim. Sunni, to be more specific.

Best Time to Travel

The best time to visit Morocco is spring or autumn. Consider mid-March, April, May, September and October.
