[@TheHypnotizedHeart]

Some clarifications: - Tap water is drinkable in most places - Small taxis (e.g. red ones in Casablanca) do have meters and are actually obliged to use them, so make absolutely sure to ask the taxi driver to turn it on instead of bargaining the price beforehand cause they'll most probably rip you off. If they refuse, go for another taxi. One more thing is that the price will be the same if you're one person, two or three. - Grand taxi (e.g. white ones) doesn't just mean "big", it's actually another type of taxi that does a specific trip back and forth between two points and can stop anywhere along the way, the difference is that it doesn't have a meter, but charges a fixed price per person, and can take up to 6 people.

[@GaiaHedonia]

For a trip of seven hours what is better to choose, a grand taxi or a bus?

[@TheHypnotizedHeart]

@@GaiaHedonia I don't think there is a grand taxi that does a seven hour trip. Most of them do in-town trips, or trips between two close cities. So you'll have to take a bus. The best bus company is called CTM, more expensive than normal buses but trust me the difference is HUGE. You can even go for premium if you can afford it (they have an official website that you can look up). Another company, a bit less expensive, is called STCR, pretty good too :) Safe travels!

[@GaiaHedonia]

@@TheHypnotizedHeart thank you very much for your useful information! I would go for the premium but from what I have read on the internet there is not such a line between Marrakech and Zagora. It's going to be CTM. 🙏💓💙💚💛🇲🇦

[@TheHypnotizedHeart]

@@GaiaHedonia Ah yes, for that line CTM only does two trips. You'll be fine with the "Confort Plus" one that leaves around midnight and arrives early morning. My advice for you is ALWAYS choose CTM over normal buses whenever it's available, their drivers are very professional; whereas others can be really reckless at times. If you have any other questions don't hesitate :) Good luck!

Amazing video. I'm Moroccan and I can say that you were right about most things, except for stray cats, most of them are so nice and some will run away but it would be very nice if you try to play with them or feed them something because those poor things there have no one to take care of them and may die of hunger sometimes too. And I just want to add one more DON'T to your DON'TS, don't come to Morocco when it's Ramadan because you will be disappointed, many restaurants and stores are either not working or have only night shifts because most Moroccans are fasting during the days of this month of Ramadan. And you can look at the calendar when it's Ramadan every year.

2:48 In morocco there are two types of taxi: "Petit taxi" : small taxi, it takes you to whatever place you wish to go to within the city, and the price is decided with a counter in Dirhams, so pay attention to the taxi driver, and ask him to turn it on if he forgets or doesn't do so. "Grand taxi": big taxi, and you pay for your seat, riding with other people, for a specific ride between two taxi posts either inside the city, or between cities, you can still get out of the taxi in the middle of the route to destination. Beware that taxi prices are generally slightly higher in night times.

Morrocan mosques were kind of a culture shock for me as a Malaysian Muslim: usually Malaysian mosques are open at almost all times (except far late at night) for travellers' conveniences to stop and rest at any time. The guide for my family told us we had to rush to pray as these mosques would be immediately closed after prayers, so me finding that out was pretty eye opening to me.

Heads up: I've lived here for the past two and a half years. Most things are spot on! I've seen a growing increase in credit card machines both in restaurants and some shops in the medinas. It truly depends so make sure you ask! You can buy train tickets with a debit card (not credit) no matter which country you're from (I just did on Saturday with my American). I have both Moroccan and American accounts. I would also say that tipping isn't necessarily a part of the culture here in all places. Of course if people go above and beyond, you should tip but tipping culture is more similar to that of Europe than the US. Good work though!

The places are so beautiful, the people are friendly, food is fresh and delicious and it's very affordable. Haggling is part of the experience and I can safely say that 25-50% off from initial price is nothing, most times you need to go 90% off for a realistic price as a foreigner. Most pieces are mass produced and a lot cheaper in Casablanca than Marrakech. If you're visiting for a while then I'd stick to a normal hotel that's not a Riad as long stays in a Riad can be uncomfortable.

I lived/worked in Morocco for a few years quite a few years ago (I lived in Casablanca and visited many other places too of course, usually driving in my car, or occasionally travelling with friends, both foreign & Moroccan, in their cars), and have visited it a number of times since. In fact I actually passed my first driving test there (I took it in French, although I could just as easily have taken it in Arabic). I'd say this is a pretty good guide for novice visitors to this part of the world, although of course it is generally more open to western tourists than many other Arab countries, and I've lived in a number, but there are certain cultural differences you do need to be aware of and observe so the guidance here will prove very useful.

Just came from Morocco. It was an wonderful experience. The people are very friendly and hospitable. Countryside view is fantastic. Villages those are around or located in the state/ province of Larache deserve special attention and praise. They are picture perfect as most of these villages are located on the mountains. While you drive you can enjoy these villages from highways. All the villages have their own mosques located on the higher grounds. And don't forget to visit the only blue city of the world - " Chefchaoun ".

Some clarifications ; - everyone can enter a mosque, you just have to be clean and remove the shoes to leave the place clean - not everyone haggles, it depends on the price or the product. People don't really haggle if they're going to buy bread, fruits or so 😅 - Tap water isn't actually that bad, the taste isn't the best but it won't cause any health issues. - The traffic is indeed crazy but only in the bigger cities like Marrakech, Tangier and Casablanca. - Not everyone expects you to tip them, some people really want to help. - using your left hand isn't really an issue here, it's more a religious thing. I really appreciate those tips and i hope you'll visit my city ' Tangier ' the next time and other stunning Northern cities like Tetouan, Chefchaouen, Asilah, Houceima ..

[@zafiradaima]

Excellent tips for travelling in Morocco! I've traveled t Morocco 9 times and still haven't seen everything I want to see. As a woman I've never had any trouble haggling because there's never anything I want to buy so badly that I won't just walk away. I also know that I'll be paying more than a Moroccan and as my earning potential is typically a lot more, I'm ok with that too. I dress fairly conservatively, long or 3 quarter sleeves, long pants or long capris in the summer, and have been invited so many times by Moroccans to eat with their family on Friday or to stay at their homes.

[@LadyBug1967]

Thank you for your comment. I had previously had watched Malini Angelica's video which was very beautiful but she wore a sleeveless blouse all the time and it usually showed a bit of cleavage and I thought that was very risque of her ---especially as a tourist being filmed by her partner. Finally she was invited into somebody's home and I can see they gave her a type of djellaba that she draped over her shoulders and it also covered your cleavage. I thought well that's one way to get a free souvenir 😉lol That's a bit of a joke but I was thinking-- I'm sure she came to that house dressed in a sleeveless top and they offered her that because there was no way she could enter their home wearing what she was wearing. SHE actually looks Moroccan everyone said but even more so her dress was highly inappropriateshe. She also wore shorts that were not short shorts as they were little bit shorter than Bermuda shorts and they were in a type of jean material,which looked of course very beautiful on her because she's beautiful, but I'm thinking now that even that maybe was incorrect and I should wear slacks. I am wondering though if a sundress is possible if you cover your arms with a little jacket or something of that sort which I have a lot of actually😊 I do love sundresses😚 DOES anyone know?? thank you

[@zafiradaima]

@@LadyBug1967 I guess it depends on how short your sundress is and like you stated, if you cover your shoulders and arms. Moroccans in tourist towns such as Marrakech are used to seeing it all, but personally I prefer to be as respectful as possible, but that's just me. Maybe try the Trip Advisor forums for Morocco. Lots of people on those forums have visited very recently or live someplace in Morocco. Enjoy your trip!

Nice video but I would like to address few points that seemed inaccurate: 1- you can drink water in most of the cities, it is true that in some it tastes weird but still you can drink it 2- of course you can buy train and bus tickets online and you can check in online for the flights if the airlines you are using offer this service 3- shops don't refuse foreign credit card!! the only issue is the banks are charging a lot of fees on each transaction so if you are buying a bottle of water obviously the vendor will prefer to get paid with cash 4- not everyone is expecting tips while helping or inviting you! it is very offending when you offer money to someone who is just helping or trying to be kind towards you. A smile with a warm "thank you" is enough!! As arabs and muslims we consider tourists as guests and we honour our guests 5- I'm not a cat person but you can definitely pet cats 😜
