What do I know about Morocco?

 Find all the information you need to organize and prepare for your trip. What do you need to pack in your luggage? What do you need to know about Morocco?

What do I know about Morocco?

Not much really. The world's a big place and I just haven't managed to get around to expanding my travel knowledge to Morocco.

So, I asked Emiel van den Boomen from the travel blog Act of Traveling for a bit of education on this mysterious land.  Here Emiel has given us some great stories and tips he picked up on his family's journey to Morocco.  There is just something so otherworldly about Morocco, just look at Emiel's photos. Definitely a destination our family will be adding to our world travels.

Thanks to Emiel for all the help and Enjoy Morocco!

I have heard that Morocco, in particular Marrakech, can be a overwhelming and aggressive for travelers.  

Was this your experience?  Did you find a big difference between Marrakech and other Moroccan cities?

Absolutely NOT! Overwhelming yes, but in the positive sense of the word.  Aggressive?  No Way.

We decided to not start our trip in one of the major cities in Morocco. So we kicked off in Ourazazate, close to the Atlas mountains and the desert. The beauty of the landscape was overwhelming: red rocks, long straight roads crossing the desert, beautiful!

Of course Marrakech is a big city, so you automatically encounter lots of traffic and people wanting to earn a buck from you. That's normal but I have to be honest that we expected a lot more hassle. People wanting to sell their stuff, trying to get you in their store. We were warned about the souks: “Don't talk to anyone because you cannot get rid of them once you have shown the slightest interest in their products”, they told us. The reality was totally different. Even in the soukhs we could easily walk around with our kids, no problem at all! We looked at shops, bought something if we wanted to and the kids had a great time. You can even take a horse and carriage to get you back to your hotel, it's a nice way to view the city.

We actually like bigger cities, because of the buzz and the many people to watch. Really, Marrakech to us was never aggressive. I know Marrakech seems an inappropriate destination right now, after the bombing that killed so many innocent people. Our experience dates from before that.

I know very little about travel in Morocco.  How did you get around while during your travels?

If you want a bit of luxury travel, you just rent a 4 wheel drive. Bags and suitcases go on top. You will see many of these cars crossing the country as it's a popular way for travelers to get around.

In Marrakech it's very easy to get a taxi. So-called petit taxis are allowed to carry only 3 people (plus the driver). Negotiate on beforehand about the price and just take another one if you believe they ask too much.

From Marrakech to Essaoiura (on the coast) we took a local bus. You can choose between local busses or somewhat more luxury busses. The last one is excellent when you travel with kids. It will take you to the coast in less than 3 hours and still for a very low price!

What did your children think of their time in Morocco? 

What were some of the highlights and lowlights for your kids?

One lowlight turned into a highlight quickly for our youngest son (4 years at that time). We went for a camel ride on the beach of Essaouira, but my son was so scared of the camels at first! Look at the picture! But after a couple of minutes he started to smile again, enjoying being a Prince of Persia!

The children remember the desert, the camel ride, the cultural differences (“Dad, why are these women wearing clothes when they swim in the sea?”). The travel to Morocco was terrible, as we had a six-hour (!) delay before we could continue with our flight from Casablanca to Ouarzazate. And I can tell you, there is nothing to do at Casablanca airport! Lowlight for sure...

The culture is very different in Morocco when compared to the Netherlands. 

What culture differences stood out or surprised you, both good and bad?

Of course the culture is very, very different. When we waited at the airport, a man got on this knees and started to pray. Time after time he bowed his head, almost touching the ground. My son asked us: Dad, is there a hole in the ground? Hilarious! Of course we explained about the Muslim culture and so we did a couple of more times during our trip.

I might read a lot of guidebooks before embarking on a trip to Morocco. 

Tell me a few popular places I should feel free to skip and some Moroccan destinations or experiences I must partake in before I leave the country.

Popular places are Ait Benhaddou, a must-see place also for your kids. Our kids loved the climb up hill with a spectacular view of the country.

Also popular is Essaouira, a nice pitoresque city, but certainly NOT a place to stay if you want to lay on the beach and enjoy the sun. It's windy and therefore a popular place for surfers!

The highlights for me was the part from Ouarzazate into the mountains (Dades valley) and the desert.

In Marrakech, go to the Marjorelle gardens. An oasis of peace where you can take a rest after walking the busy streets. Be prepared, it can become very busy. At night, you MUST go to the Djem El Fnaa square in the middle of Marrakech. Every night the square turns into an open-air restaurant. Don't worry, the food is safe. We experienced it ourselves.

A lot of families I know are going to be cautious of traveling to Morocco with kids in tow. 

What can you tell them about your own experiences that might ease their concerns?

We chose Morocco because for us it was a totally different world yet very close by (3.5 hours flight from Holland). We decided not to travel the whole country, but only a limited part. Morocco is great because you can easily combine large cities with smaller towns and elongated landscapes.

When you decide to travel to Morocco, make sure to get your vaccinations. But after that, and I am very honest here, we did not encounter anything that got us worried. You will immerse in a totally different world.

What are your 3 best tips for families traveling to Morocco?

1) Don't start in one of the big cities like Casablanca or Marrakech. Start smaller and work your way to the big city. It helps your kids to get used to a different culture.

2) Focus on a smaller part of the country and do not try to travel all the major cities, plus the desert, the mountains and the beach  Stay in places at least 2 or 3 days.

3) Book hotels with a swimming pool! There is nothing more needed after a dusty day in the desert to play in the water!

Reasons Have to Travel in Morocco!

Travel is a relatively rare part of most people’s lives, especially if it’s overseas. That’s you need to be totally gung ho about your choice of foreign soil to set foot on. To help make your decision easier, I’m going to offer five reasons for why you need to go to Morocco. Just five. There are plenty more reasons, but I’m trying to keep the list short.

1. An Arab-Muslim nation with a Berber tribal heritage, a short ferry ride from Spain, and formerly controlled by France must by definition be a fascinating place. Influenced by three continents, visiting Morocco is like going everywhere in the Eastern Hemisphere all at once. Morocco bears the marks of a former Roman province, Islamic Dynasty, and World War II battlefield. With so much historical intrigue to offer at one location, Morocco makes a great case for itself.

Arab-Muslim nation

2. Morocco boasts one of the busiest squares in Africa. The Djemaa al-Fna in Marrakech has been listed as one of UNESCO’s Masterpieces of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity. If authentic and bustling markets excite you, you are not apt to find a better place to put on your haggling face!

Djemaa al-Fna

3. Geographic diversity. With the snow-capped Atlas and Rif Mountains so close to the Atlantic seashore, and both of those only a train ride from the great Sahara Desert, Morocco offers an extremely wide variety of geographic interests to the modern day adventurer. Whether wind surfing at Essaouira Beach, admiring Toubkal Mountain, the highest peak in the Atlas Range, or taking in the sights of the mountainous sand dunes in the south, there is a geographic feature for everyone to enjoy! Plus, if you go in the winter, the Atlas mountains are great for skiing!

Atlas Mountains

4. Riads. These traditional homes-turned-hotels allow for some of the best culture soaking in the world! Instead of checking into a hotel anywhere else, enjoy the ancient hospitality of the Moroccan riad. Whether in Fez, Marrakech, or Rabat, riads ensure that you experience the full gamut of North African culture. These buildings can but up to 1000 years old and boast an architectural palette ranging from Roman to Islamic to Spanish styles. Wake up to the smell of authentic Moroccan food cooking in the kitchen below and enjoy the solitude of the courtyards, even in the midst of the big cities.

Riads

5. Tangier: Art Central. Many people don’t know that many American and European artists (such as Mark Twain, Ferdinand Delacroix, Henri Matisse, Tennessee Williams, Paul Bowles, William S. Burroughs, Allen Ginsberg, Jack Kerouac, to name a few) have used Morocco as the idealgetaway and, for some, even a permanent residence. During the French years of Morocco’s lifespan, Tangier was flooded with eccentric rich folks, spies, gamblers, and straight up crooks. The flood of Westerners, especially after Delacroix’s romantic masterpieces, made the placequite trendy for high profile artists and the like. Today there is still a vibrant arts community in Tangier to explore.

Tangier

Consider Morocco for your next overseas trip. If you are seeking to see the world, there is no better way!

When you travel to Morocco

When you travel to Morocco ,include the imperial cities of Marrakech, Fes and Meknes. This is where you find the old towns (Medinas) with their wonderful bazaars, palaces and bustling town squares.
Morocco is also famous for its beaches and some of the best seaside towns are on the Atlantic coast, they include Essaouira, Tangier and Asilah. Morocco is also not short on natural beauty. You can hire a camel and trek through the Sahara; climb North Africa's highest peak in the Atlas Mountains; or stay in a traditional Kasbah (pictured here) in the fascinating Dades Valley.

Luckily Morocco is small enough and has a decent local transport network, so you're able to see a variety of towns and sights in just one week.



Getting There
When you travel to Morocco, there are many options you can take. However, if you are coming from the United States, you can take, Royal Air Maroc which offers direct flights from New York to Casablanca, with a connection in some cities like Marrakech. If you are traveling from Europe, there are many direct flights from major European cities to Casablanca, Marrakech and more. One excellent bit of Morocco travel information is that you can travel within Morocco, via Royal Air Maroc, for only $100 each way.

Health
When people begin to travel, they often worry about how the country will affect their health. This could be through pollution, food or water, but you can be assured that in Morocco, there is very little need to concern yourself about health. However, Morocco travel information is what we provide, so you should bring bottled water to drink instead of tap water when you are outside of cities. You also do not need vaccinations, and there is little worry about illness, other than a sunburn or upset stomach. You should bring sunscreen and intestinal medicine like Pepto Bismol, just in case. Now that is a piece of Morocco travel information you can rely on!

Safety
Another concern for travelers around the world is safety. Thankfully, Morocco is a very safe country to be in. This is no biased piece of Morocco travel information, as you will find plenty of honest and friendly people throughout the country. However, as with any country, carry only small amounts of money, keep your valuables hidden and hold your camera close. You should be careful in crowds and you should avoid fake guides who offer false Morocco travel information to tourists and travelers. With Sahara Soul Travel, you will have all your guides arranged, and all of them are licensed and can help you discern fake Morocco travel information from real Morocco travel information.

Currency
The national currency is the Dirham (DH, Dh, or MAD). Dirhams cannot be exchanged or purchased outside of Morocco. As a general guide, divide the Moroccan price by 10 to get a rough estimate of cost in $ or €. Current exchange rates can be obtained from several Web sites. International credit cards are accepted in hotels and by many merchants, although you may get a better price for a cash transaction. ATM machines are abundant in major cities, so a good strategy is use your ATM card to get Dirhams every few days as needed and carry some home currency as backup. ATMs outside the U.S. require 4-digit numerical PINs, so be sure before leaving home that yours complies. It is recommended to keep small change in local currency handy for impulse purchases, tips to restroom attendants, and the like.

Climate and Clothing
Everyone knows that Morocco is a warm country, and there is no need to go deeper into that bit of Morocco travel information. However, it should be pointed out that the country does have extreme temperatures in the desrt and mountains, and even on warm days you should bring a jacket for the evenings. Make sure you bring good shoes, and women should avoid short skirts, tank tops or other revealing articles of clothing.

Electricity
A very important piece of Morocco travel information is what type of plug is used. In Morocco, they use a French-style 220-volt electrical plug, which is similar to that used in continental Europe. If bringing electronics that need a plug-in, you may need a converter.


Telephones
The country code for Morocco is 212 (no, it's not New York!). Cell phones operate on the GSM network. American mobile phone holders should contact their provider to set up international roaming. Voice and SMS service of European carriers should work well. To help you keep in touch with friends and family back home, we can provide local cell phone service for you to receive and make calls upon request.

Travel insurance
Another very important piece of Morocco travel information is the importance of travel insurance. We strongly recommend that all of our clients purchase travel insurance. Travel insurance can protect you against baggage loss; missed connections; medical emergency, including evacuation costs; trip cancellation; and trip interruption. Families traveling together, in particular, can benefit from traveler's insurance, due to the high investment in the trip and the increased risk of one person's illness resulting in the entire trip being cancelled. There are many places on the Internet where you can compare rates and buy insurance.

Languages
It can be hard to get Morocco travel information from locals when you don't know what language they speak. The truth is, Morocco has two official languages; Arabic and Berber. However, you will also find those who speak English, French and Spanish. However, one good piece of Morocco travel information is to remember to smile, it is the universal language.

Bargaining
Probably the most important piece of Morocco travel information is how to bargain. Bargaining is a sport in Morocco, and outside of hotels, restaurants and Western merchants, you will be bargaining for nearly everything. The best thing you can do is simply say Tan Shouf, which means Just Looking. Find out what you want by wandering around, and always do comparison shopping. If you are set on buying something, determine a price that is best for you and bargain around that. Merchants will inflate the cost of an item when dealing with a tourist, so you have to stay firm. If you decide its too much, walk away because otherwise they will believe you can't live without the item, which gives them the advantage. This can be difficult, time consuming and tiring, but by staying firm you will get what you want at the price you can afford. That being said, there is no reason you have to come home with anything!
Your Sahara Soul Travel guide will also be able to help you find good handicrafts at the right price.

Internships in Morocco,Volunteer and Intern in Morocco

Internships in Morocco,Volunteer and Intern in Morocco

Volunteering in Morocco will give participants an enriching and unique perspective on north .... Volunteer and intern in over 25 countries anytime you want.

Morocco is an exciting destination in Northern Africa to spend time on a volunteer program or internship. Morocco is African and Arabic, and only a few miles from Europe. All three of these facts echo in the heartbeat of this beautiful country.

Morocco is a safe and moderate country that offers a fascinating taste of Africa and gives you the opportunity to learn more about the Arabic and Islamic influences that are shaping the world.

1234
Historically, Morocco has been a crossing-point for travelers, migrants and traders from all over Africa, Europe and the East. Such diverse influences have contributed to an amazing richness and complexity in cultural life, from art to architecture, music and cuisine.

Morocco has both Atlantic and Mediterranean coastlines, and many of the large towns are also coastal, including the fabulous trading cities of Casablanca, Agadir and Rabat. Inland, on the edge of the Atlas Mountains, lie the equally enticing towns of Fés, Marrakesh and Meknès.

In Moroccan cities you will find maze-like alleys and vibrant, fragrant, enticing markets alongside modern districts with wide boulevards, Hispano-Moorish architecture and high-rise buildings. In the interior you will find the snowy Atlas Mountains and communities living in the desert beyond, whose way of life has remained unchanged for generations.

Our projects in Morocco are available for anyone interested in volunteering in the developing world, including those on a college summer break, gap year, career break or volunteer vacation.

Volunteer Work and Internships in Morocco
Projects Abroad Morocco can offer you volunteer projects in Teaching, Care and Sports as well as language courses in both Arabic and French. Our volunteer office is based in Rabat, an ancient imperial city which is modernizing rapidly and is now Morocco's political capital.

Living with a host family in Rabat gives you a taste of the fascinating culture of modern Moroccan life. With fewer tourists here than in other large Moroccan cities, volunteers will find that local people are eager to engage with them and exchange views. Young Moroccans in particular are eager to interact with their Western counterparts.

Volunteer Vacations and Voluntourism in Morocco
There's plenty to occupy volunteers in their free time and after their placements. In Rabat and the other ancient towns, it’s a pleasure just to soak up the atmosphere of the souks and marketplaces, with their acrobats, jugglers and snake-charmers.


The whitewashed city of Rabat has many attractions, especially its elegant mosques, enchanting palaces, tranquil parks and gardens, its sandy beach (stretching all the way to Casablanca), and its famous blue and white Kasbah, which is well worth exploring. If you’re looking for more exciting activities, it’s easy to organize a trip into the Sahara, where you can enjoy scenery straight from a film-set, as Tuaregs in flowing blue robes ride their camels across seemingly endless sand-dunes.

For the more adventurous volunteer, Morocco offers water sports like scuba-diving or white-water rafting. The Atlas Mountains are great for hiking, snowboarding and skiing, whereas the desert is the starting point for camel-trekking and off-roading.

Living and working in Morocco may be a challenge, but with so much to learn and so many magical sights to see, it's a challenge you'll be glad you accepted.
