Our Gear:
We travel with a Microsoft Surface everywhere we go. I edit my videos on it & use it to backup my pictures and vides while we travel. It’s light and the best travel laptop on the market in my opinion.

We use Sony Alpha series cameras to film our videos. They are compact so you don’t look like a super tourist when you take great pictures and videos while you travel.

We use Manfrotto Tripods. They are compact, travel well, and honestly I would not use another tripod for my nice cameras.

Travel Plug that works in pretty much any country & has four USB ports. A must for any traveler.

Want to grab some great gear? We have used Osprey Packs for years & swear by them. Check them out here

Need some clothing for your next adventure? Patagonia has some pretty good stuff for all kinds of travelers.

My mom is Moroccan. I visited with her a few years ago and tried haggling in the souk. The shop owner offered 50 dirham for some trinket. I offered 25 dirham and he accepted. I was happy with my purchase until my mom told me it was worth 10 dirham!

I love just how you respect the tradition of any country you visit.
Respect for you and your family

I went to Morocco back in March just before the United States state of emergency, and it was life-changing. The people were kind, the culture was rich yet diverse and the landscape was BREATHTAKING. I actually visited the Hassan II Mosque in Casablanca and it was one of the architecture was beyond words

[zakariachicoula]

More Moroccans watched this then anyone else lol

[aiquesono]

I went to Morocco in March and I loved every single thing about my trip. AMAZING COUNTRY. everyone just go to Morocco😍😍😍

[oddveiganniearchi]

I am travelling to Morocco once a year every year together with my morrocan husband, and I always enjoy and love every minute of my stay there!

If you are decent enough to take off your shoes when you're at any mosque you are automatically welcome in there, no one will question your faith once your in the mosque.

You don't need to bargain or haggle with taxi driver, don't even ask them for the price. have them to use the meters.

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.

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.

I live 3 years in Morocco until now and water it`s good everywhere.

As a young Moroccan I always try to help other people from other countries because it makes me feel happy when I help them without even expecting anything from them
Please do review this

He forgot one "Don't".
Don't let these "Don't"s stop you from visiting this amazing and wonderful country

[yassine]

Tourist who think Morroco is only "SAHARA" and "CAMELS" Bruhh C'mon 😒😒

[zinaart]

Why do I feel happy when I read positive comments about Morocco. As I own it 😅🙄😂

[CT-fzzg]

I am French citizen with a moroccan ethnic background.
I think that your advices and your depictions of morocco are pretty fair and balanced.
Your are promoting tourism in morocco without misleading potential visitors.
I am impressed. How much time did you spent for being so familiar with this country ?
keep going with providing good content.
Take care

[mohamedlaroussi]

Haha I'm morrocan and funniest thing he said is: "Don't stop bargaining" and it's true.

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.

Will be visiting Marrakech in December 🤘🏾 I’m excited

(Edit) Yeah my time there was wonderful. I’ll make it my second home. It was the most well orchestrated and beautiful chaos I’ve ever seen in my life. I’ll be sure to check out Fes and Casablanca and other gems when I come back. Love y’all Morocco!
