What to Expect in Morocco

Top Destinations

Marrakech is the most popular destination, famous for Jemaa el-Fna square, the Medina souks, and stunning riads. Fes offers the world’s oldest university and the most complete medieval city in the Arab world. Chefchaouen is the Instagram-famous blue city in the Rif Mountains. The Sahara Desert near Merzouga offers unforgettable camel treks and stargazing.

Budget

Morocco is very affordable for UK visitors. A comfortable riad in Marrakech costs 300 to 600 MAD per night, a full tagine meal 60 to 120 MAD, and a day of guided touring around 400 to 800 MAD. The Moroccan Dirham is roughly 13 MAD to 1 GBP as of 2026. Budget travellers can easily manage on 30 to 50 pounds per day.

Safety and Culture

Morocco is generally safe for tourists but be alert in busy souks where petty theft and scams targeting tourists are common. Dress modestly outside beach resorts. Bargaining is expected in markets — start at about one-third of the asking price. Morocco is a Muslim country; alcohol is available in tourist hotels and licensed restaurants but not widely elsewhere.
