Q12. Should I bring dirhams, or can I use euros? Are credit cards accepted?

We recommend bringing dirhams in cash for daily purchases and drinks, as many smaller establishments don’t accept cards. Some larger hotels may accept credit cards, but it’s always best to have cash on hand.

Upon arrival at Marrakech airport, you’ll find a bureau de change, or you can withdraw cash from the ATM.

Unfortunately, no. Since 2015, Morocco has prohibited the import of drones for security reasons, and this policy is unlikely to change soon. Private drones will be confiscated upon arrival.

Q16. Do I need vaccinations to travel to Morocco? What about malaria or COVID-19?

Morocco does not require any specific vaccinations for visitors, but we recommend consulting your doctor for personalized advice. Anti-tetanus is a good option in case of any minor injuries.

For the latest COVID-19 information, please refer to the Visit Morocco website.

During our tours, you'll stay in high-quality small hotels, riads, and auberges at each stop. Some accommodations may also feature a swimming pool.

Typically, they are not available, but we can arrange massages in advance if requested.
