I don't know how your experience was in Morocco, I'm Canadian but surely your trip was not normal, because I went to Morocco 5 years ago, and I didn't really see or experience what you're talking about. Morocco is a beautiful country and its people are much more friendly than Canadians ( because a large majrity of Canadians are hypocrites)

I was about to say the same thing about the internet. I've traveled a bit and I can say that the 4G in Morocco is quite good you can even get data in the middle of nowhere. The problem is the type of accommodations you have been at. In the medinas the fiber is almost nowhere to be seen and it's quite normal they have to dig underneath the old structures which takes time. The data on the other hand is there but because the density of the population in the Medina, the buildings being stuck together, and the lack of towers (because of the space issue) makes it difficult to find a strong signal especially at night. Other than that alot of people have fiber which is extremely fast and as a digital nomad (now established in Morocco for a few years) I can work from cafes and even the beach in taghazout. For the shitty hustlers part, I would say that I do understand about 10% of them because it has been tough this past couple of years, but for the 90% of them they deserve to be jailed because they're just after that quick buck and you'll see them in Egypt too. Some people are finding ways to offer a service in exchange of money as a food guide or a tour guide etc.. but those shitheads makes hard even for the honest people. The government used to punish them but now after two years of strict covid lockdown they're turning a blind eye for the moment. Which socks.

About internet, there are mainly 4 Internet Service Providers (local and foreign, WIFI or 4G), each one may cover better than the others at a certain location, so maybe you didn't choose the right one at the right region. And you said the truth, in very touristy places, there may be people who try to scam tourists, and even locals, these people can be severely punished if one complains to the authorities. As Moroccans we don't want such thing happen, apologizes.

I lived there for three years from 2013 to 2016 in Casa and Mara. Its not just Morocco its whole North Africa. North Africa is a really beautiful and warm, there is no question about that. However, yes... Social infrastructure and conservative religion etc is still rampant there. As well as it is poor. Moroccoans were always proud of their "tea"... With minth i remember.. Would i recommend ppl go there.... Hmm.. Yes and no. If you are interested and want to see old history and take part of really good ancient culture for sure by all means go there. The Hassan II Mosque is a sight to see and visit on the Atlantic in Casa. But for general life with the busses and and street life its horrible. Its a poor islamic country that still has ways to go. But that is my experience. Yours might be different than mine. Go there yourself and find out. Live and let live. I will say this.

Hello. You did a great job exploring the country, I really did like how you describe details and pros and cons. But sometimes the bad things that happened in your trip turn to be the best story to tell after the experience, it's boring to have everything everywhere evertime that (OK). this is why movies and documentary look for the surprises. Why? Because your viewers will love them. It's the charming parts and pieces of cakes that people miss and they will fellow your steps to explore them.... so always do not focus on good things, but bad moments will rise your vlogs up to the level... Keep up doing good job. Moroccan in NYS

I read some comments and it's just normal that people defend their country, I hope you will accept their comments and don't feel offended.. Moroccans love their country more than anything else in life❤💯 However, I think because of the pandemic, a lot of these people haven't had an income for 2 years, so they try anything to make money. That said, Moroccans are very welcoming in general and they like to share with others...sharing is in their values btw I'm Canadian and originally from Morocco, I think I know what I'm talking about 😛😉🤣 anyways if you're back to Morocco, you're welcome to my home 🤗 I'm looking for your feedback on Egypt because it's a thousand times worse than what you experienced in Morocco (I'm talking about what you didn't like) 🤪 Enjoy your trip around the world!

Thanks so much for the comment! As for the comments from Moroccans defending their country, I'm a bit surprised as we think that the vast majority of this video was us talking about all of the amazing things about the country and it's people. Our time in Egypt is good, we are in Egypt for a much shorter time than we were in Morocco so we mostly did guided tours, and had local guides the whole time so I think we didn't experience what you are mentioning. Thank you so much for following along! ✌️

I used to go ( 4 times) to Marrakech my favourite place in the world!! My absolutely time is between end of May,beginning of June!! The wifi was excellent in the Riad that I always stay in de middle of the Medina in Marrakech! There was a film and music festival around late May so they had these huge stalls in the Jenma El Fna square and it was the best food ever!! I don’t really talk to people there after my first time and first day there, I got stalked and harassed by people trying to sell me things, but as an African, I know how to deal with them! I just simply ignore them and give them down looks and they eventually leave me alone!! And I travel solo! The henna ladies tried to charge me €100 for it, I gave her €20 and left her screaming there!! But it’s still my favourite place ever

Tourism in Morocco is full of potential - and Morocco is a great destination - but it is still an informal sector and there are a lot if scammers around, but you should know that these people are incapable of doing anything physical because they'll be in a great trouble. Appart from loosing some money and time you should be doing fine. And yes internet is still shitty otherwise there are some very expensive options... hope u had a good time and good luck for the rest of your trip. Be careful in Egypt...

As a Moroccan, ever since Marrakech made it to international status as a top tourist destination, it kind of ruined it for everyone. When top travel blogs started their pump campaign of the city, it signaled the start of the fall from grace. It’s now just a typical tourist trap. My family owns property in Marrakech that we hardly visit. Jamaa Lefna is just an open circus where everyone is screaming for money. The city lost its charm!

I'm so sorry you feel that way. We visited Marrakech twice and know that there are many interesting things about the city and many kind and wonderful people who live there. But you're right about certain parts of the Medina, they are filled with tourists and those that prey on tourists. Too much tourism can be a bad thing for a city as many other cities around the world are seeing too.

I am sorry for your experience in Marrakech. It is a highly visited and touristic destination and often people there are greedy (not all of them). I am moroccan and have been victim of those greedy ppl. If you are visiting a major city in Morocco I would recommend a guide or a friend or a friend of friend... someone you trust (nothing bad will happen but you will be uncomfortable and have a bad experience). If you are visiting small cities and rural areas, trust people 100% ! They might invite you for dinner and prepare a feast even if they don't have the means. All in all, moroccans are kind and friendly and will help you and care for you, unfortunately there are some unfaithful bad persons out there like there are all over the world.

@Chems Shop. You need to rewatch the video then. We NEVER said it was for kids. We said the vegetables in a tagine had a baby food consistency.

We also clearly stated in the video that we felt the Moroccan cuisine was extremely diverse with many great dishes that we preferred over a tagine. Internet, cell data was not the only issue. We had wifi in Riads, AirBnb's and hotels that were all bad. In Rabat we supposedly had fibre internet that was also awful. There have been many comments from both foreigners and Moroccans suggesting that we simply had bad luck, and we are thinking they are correct. It is not the first country where we experienced bad internet, but it is the first country where we experienced it throughout the entire country which would lead one to believe that it is just bad everywhere.

Second thing , I want to thank you for your honest opinion about your experience in Morocco , despite what you have said about Tajin , but that stays your opinion and your taste even if we disagree with you 😄. The only thing I didn't like in the video is when you said " if you come to Morocco as digital nomad, rethink of that totally unworth it " . You could have rephrase that sentence like saying " from our own experience we faced a bad internet " without telling people not to come if they are digital nomad because that is a misleading information, we know that you mean no harm , but I'm sorry I see that you slipped in that part 😅. In the end we are happy for your visit and we hope to see you sometime soon , good luck ♥️

But our cameras are small, and just the usual tourist size, maybe if they were bigger we would have more problems. One thing is that the security at many famous sites won't allow us to have our microphone on our camera, and we don't understand why.

At no point in the video did we say that crime didn't exist elsewhere in the world(especially the US). We simply stated what our experience was within the Marrakech Medina during a few days of our stay there and how it was non stop. We even put the blame on ourselves for our reactions to that experience. Of course scams and hustles happen everywhere. Marrakech just happened to be magnified by how often it happened. Overall Morocco was an amazing country and we would love to return one day. We just know that if we want to do the Marrakech Medina again it would be with a local tour guide and not on our own.

Never had a problem at all with internet myself! The hassle is part of the fun. Give it them back, have a laugh with them, take the piss and they soon get off. If you look like a middle-class tourist couple you're gonna get hassle. If you look hassled they'll hassle you even more. The food's shit, so don't spend too much. If you get hassle to eat somewhere simply reply 'J'ai mangé' and they leave you be. They love English TV so talk about Only Fools and Horses and they buzz off it. Basically just enjoy it it 's just young lads trying to earn a dollar. That said, moroccans can have a somewhat short temper so be respectful and courteous at all times. But do remember the older generations are generally extremely warm and generous with their time.

Started watching your videos ,i really understand your experience and i agree there is many of street people who are not well educated that cause you this bad experience,but you guys should really know where to go and with who you talked with and as a plus there is police who can jump on and help you or arrest who is disturbing you...hope you go back morocco and visit more cities since this experience it helps you..just a heads up to be careful at egypte i visited it twice and you should be very careful visiting old places and crowded souks such as (al hussain, Giza,dougi....) I can provide a totally free consultation in regards of Morocco and egypte or any other country in the middle east or africa 🌍 enjoy and please choose a proper words to describe ( only or just the shitty ones ) instead of what was been written

@PureDetour
@PureDetour 2 жыл бұрын
This is a valid point. Egypt has a much more well known reputation for this behaviour than Morocco does. We really didn't find out about this in Morocco until we had already experienced it and did a lot more research. Quite easy to find out about the scams within the Medinas if you spend a little time digging. So the blame lies on us for not doing our due diligence before arriving in Morocco. As to Egypt we have been here for almost a month now and because of our Marrakech experience and the all of the readily available info about harassment within Egypt we have been able to avoid it entirely by hiring reputable tour guides

Trust me I am Moroccan and when I go to Marrekesh, I get hussled by some people trying to sell me stuff. It is annoying tbh with you and It needs to be stopped. As for the Tagine, you probably didn't have a proper Tagine. It is exceptionally delicious when made properly and nasty otherwise.

Yes, Marrakesh is a very interesting place, isn't it? We loved so many Moroccan dishes (my favourite may be the amazing rfissa we had in Meknes at a place called Aisha, if you haven't seen that Meknes video, prepare to drool 🤣) but just didn't find a tagine we loved, and we tried many of them. we liked the meat and the spices, but I guess we like our veggies more crisp? Thanks so much for watching 🇲🇦❤️🙏

They hassle domestic visitors as well? That sucks. It would really be an interesting and fun place to visit, if it weren't for the hustlers. I would have really enjoyed my stay, as it's a fascinating place. We are thinking if we ever come back to Morocco we might visit the North. Do you have any similar experiences there? Tangier, Chefchaouen, etc? We had no issues in Essaouira, Fes, Meknes, Kenitra or Rabat. Only Marrakech.
