Planning to travel to Morocco later this winter with several friends (we're all babyboomers). This is the BEST video I've seen yet. THANK YOU for all the practical information. So glad I'm not going to have to rely on Edith Wharton's advice!
Well done on this. As a frequent traveller (16x) to the country, you’ve done it fair, general assessment. There’s a lot more of course, but for a first time traveller, you’ve provided more than enough relevant information. Shukran!
What's funny is I'm a Moroccan born and raised, but I haven't been back since 2009, and I learned a lot of things about my home country through this video. My flight is in less than a month, so thank you so much for all the great info 😀. Thank you
great job on genearl info of Morocco. you didnt mention the divine hashish and gorgeous hammam. I loveeeee Morocco, their people, tradition, food, nature is breathtaking.
@@peppyminimalist3504 For traditional moroccan food i would recommend ( Bastila, Rfisa, Tajin, couscous and moroccan tea) If you want to visit big cities I advise you to visit Casablanca, Rabat, Marrakech, Tangier and Agadir (the beaches near to agadir are the best). For more traditional cities you would love Chefchaouen (and most of the north ciries), Ouarzazet, Fes, Essaouira For alcohol you can easily find it in Carrefour markets, Acima or just go to a bar There’s snowy cities, hot cities... you’ll find everything you want just do some research
good job, you pretty much summerized it, so far the best Video on Morocco to date in you tube, Fair without Ill intentions to my opinion it reflects really good character.
Regarding safety - as a woman from Eastern Europe, I noticed minimum of differences in between Morocco and Slovakia :) Sometimes I even felt safer than in certain part of Prague...
@dominik fisara You can say the same for certain parts for all the capitals in the world. And in reality Marakesh is safe regarding your life , but the way you feel when pass the streets ....like a piece of meet hiding money ....that is the most unpleasant.
@@user-ww4yx8zz6eyeah, it is an isolated event. They were in an unrecommended place that even moroccan men won't go. You can find such places in all over the world, usa, mexico,...etc in 95% places of morocco, it is very safe. It is a tourist and known destination.
Very accurate information. I just would stress more that if you are a tourits it is mandatory to use careem or indrive because all normal taxists without exception will try to charge you 10 times more.
I have spent half of my life abroad somewhere in the world and saw hundreds of videos of places I had been. Congrats! Your Video is one of the most informative video i have ever seen without self-staging. Everything hits the bull`s eye.
I really enjoy watching your videos. The history lessons are great! I like how you keep it real in your descriptions of the inhabitants. To many people sugar coat things these days for fear of offending people. Some countries are full of assholes and dishonest people. Some are not. Call it as you see it. Great job man.
Thank you for the great tips and tricks you've shared with us, im currently looking forward to my Marocco Roadtrip in June, im really exited to experience the whole culture at it own and also the food for sure!
As Moroccan, yes Scam is very Commun especially in Tourist Spots, often, normal handmade items, that cost so cheap, they would price it x10 times for foreigners, and so many people will offer you a tour as tourist guide, but in fact t's illegal if you don't have a tourist guide authorization from the government, Other than that, i'd say to anyone who's visiting morocco, you don't really have to be scared over safety cause the laws are so strict when it comes to harming a foreigner, so mostly people are always scared to harm foreigners, but overpricing scams, it's very commun, so make sure you go with a moroccan friend if you have, or an authorized tourist guide that can be found in travel agencies or at some hotels so you can enjoy the enjoy the country's culture.
As a frequent traveler to Marrocos I can safely say you are spot on in almost everything. Thanks in name of first timers to Marrocos and in my behalf, you saved me a lot of time.
As a Moroccan, I am grateful to you for this beautiful video, as an impartial testimony, and I say welcome to everyone who loves the ancient Moroccan culture, and the beautiful and diverse nature,we are a hospitable, friendly country and people of high morals. With its three components: Amazighs, Arabs and Sahrawis.
@@WASSIEYUSUF In general, there are no special rules for weddings, like all parties, that require elegant dress, not to be naked, and take into account that men and women are jealous, hahaha
thank you for this wonderful video - it tells a lot about my beloved morocco - nest time you will be there you have to visit Fes and Zagora - be safe -bismillah inshalla, alhamdulilah
I really enjoyed your introduction to this fantastic country. I haven't vivsited yet though my son and friends had a really interesting and enjoyable time. Maybe I wil go and book my ticket! Wishing you good travelling!
Wow the job this guy made is really amazing, he covered almost everything what makes his channel's content very special and everything (or lets say 99% since the perfect doesn't exist) he said is true. The media and some terrorist organizations (that don't belong to Islam at all) have been giving a bad image about Islam and Islamic people, that pushes down the islamic countries and let the world get afraid of them, but what this man have done on his channel gives the realistic image of what Morocco is. Guys don't believe the media, Muslims are really friendly and amazing, you gonna notice the kindness of them if you come visit Morocco, especially when you meet young people of age of 20s-30s, they got such a great mindset (most of them) as they're open to the diversity of cultures of all over the world. Enjoy Morocco as you're at your own home ❤️
Languages are just tools to communicate not problems as a lot of people think. Most of communities around the world take English as their main language especially when it comes to talk and deal with people from other cultures, let’s say English is the saviour, therefore, you won’t have any issues in your journey to discovering more about islam or anything you wanna know about such or such country/culture. Here in morocco 🇲🇦 , English has became a huge trend and everybody believes that they’ve to learn it and override Frensh which is not that useful compared to English. People are also asking the government to change that second foreign language at schools and teach English instead. We are almost in 2025 and we’re all seeing this huge transition in terms of technology and science, young moroccans are very aware of this and are very open to learning new stuff for a better integration with the rest of the world. Maybe only some older people of over 50s who might still hold that old thinking and get nervous when it comes to discussing some old stuff they believe in and don’t accept diversity, but I’m sure that now or later everybody will understand and join the modernity we are in.
From TRINIDAD&TOBAGO in the CARIBBEAN MOROCCO is definitely on my bucket list for 2023 thanks for that advice I am a vegetarian so that seafood I on the inside thanks again for laying it out on the table for me BLESSINGS.
All videos very informative about Morocco. You did a great job showing the large towns of Morocco. The country, the culture, the history, the people are truly impressive.
We didn’t take 1 taxi the entire trip to Morocco. We rented a car and drive from Marrakech to Fez, Meknes, Casablanca, Chefchaouen and back down to Marrakech. The tolls on main roads were a pain in the butt but it was so nice to stop whenever we wanted to eat or sight see. I definitely recommend road tripping over a bus, train or taxi in Morocco.
If you haven't gone there yet, I recommend Fes for culture. Its an amazing city. Outdoors, you could go to Ifrane and Azrou. There is a forest between the two where you can see some of the barbary apes. Sale and Asilah have interesting history as they were once pirate strongholds. Essaouira is really nice and laid back too
Your point in regard to the "otherly", more "popular" bars, made me spit my coffee in front of a bunch of strangers, especially when you described it as a "avoid home-tavern"...That is such an astute observation...It is absolutely true! 😂😂😂😂
Thank you somuch for your video about Morocco we agree with your information Visiting Morocco its very Safeft we spend very lovely holliday in Tanger people are very very friendly the whole Country we have travelling per trein all around Morocco we really miss its inchallah next year we travelling again to Morocco 👍👍❤❤
Thank you! Your video showed up in my search for Morocco and I haven’t checked anything else yet. You touched up on a few things and I don’t know how long you stayed there and when. What I wish to know is the cost of living in Morocco. I’m Canadian and it’s too expensive here, so getting an idea of what’s the rent and utilities and cost of grocery would be great. Also, how about water? Is it safe to drink? And how about vegan friendly foods there. So many thing I’d love to know but it’s pretty early in my research, so, I may find some answers but I wish your video had touched up in them too.
Good informative vedio. My wife and are booked for Morocco in November 3 weeks arriving Casablanca. Not sure as to going it alone as we usually do or getting a little guided help( so much to do and see). Although a little older were active we do some adventures traveling. Not big on group tours and internet based solo tours were pricey Thinking of shopping upon arrival. What's your thoughts Thanks
Thanks for this video. Very helpful. Questions - do most hotels have safes? Do you know how to travel from Marrakesh to Souss Massa National Park? I only see trips from Agadir. Did you go to the park? what were your impressions of it?
My question is regarding the ferries from Tangiers to Spain. Do you have to buy tickets in advance, or can you walk up and buy a ticket? We are initially touring Morocco, and then have a stay in Spain. We thought we'd go to Tarifa, Spain via the Ferry out of Tangiers, but aren't sure what time our tour will be over. Ideally, we could buy when we arrive at the port, but not sure how that works.
