Safety and women traveler

Traveling to Morocco is probably no worse than traveling to other countries like Spain or Italy. It is somewhat safe country. The majority of Moroccan are friendly and hospitable. Use all common-sense travel safety by avoiding dark alleys, travel in group whenever possible, keep money and passport in Security wallet or in a hotel Security deposit box, keep back pack and purses with you at all times. Make sure there is nothing important in outside or back pockets.


Women traveling alone will experience almost constant harassment, but most of it is harmless. Harassment will usually consist of men simply trying to chat you up.
Morocco is an Islamic culture, so be modest in what you wear. Mini skirts, short pants, Tank tops and tight shirts will definitely attract more attention. Don’t wear them in the street. Women should dress conservatively out of respect of the culture they are visiting. As a general rule women should follow the lead of local women. The long and loose fitting cloth will shield you from lot of hassles and from Moroccan heat.
