Safety & Health

4/5

Morocco is a popular destination with generally good safety for tourists. Petty crime and harassment (e.g., hustling in souks) are the main concerns. Road travel in mountains and desert requires caution.

Common Scams

  • Guides who insist you hired them or demand payment after “showing” the way.
  • Fake argan oil or overpriced carpets; buy from reputable shops.
  • Currency confusion or short-changing; count change and know exchange rates.

Health Tips

  • Stick to bottled or purified water; avoid uncooked vegetables and unpeeled fruit unless from a trusted source.
  • Travel insurance with medical evacuation is recommended.

Vaccinations

  • Routine vaccines. Hepatitis A and typhoid recommended. Rabies if spending time with animals or in remote areas.

Water Safety

Tap water is not recommended for drinking. Use bottled or treated water.

Travel Warnings

Check government travel advice for border regions and any security updates.
