1. So how is Morocco safe to travel to???
Once you want to travel to Morocco or any other country the first thing you worry about is how safe it is. Especially if you are a female traveler. So the best way to know is to ask someone who had an experience in that country. And avoid listening to those who have never been here and they are giving people a wrong image and information. This image is usually formed by mass media or is created in their minds just because it is a Muslim country.
2. Travelers experiences in Morocco.
This is the answer I got from a Canadian girl who was traveling with her girlfriend in Morocco for 8 days: They told their friends and families that are about to travel to morocco. So they told them that’s a crazy thing to do. Since they have booked their trip in advance and the fact they were looking forward to the trip. Thus they didn’t care much. Once they meet their driver at the Airport they asked him to take a selfie together that her mother asked her to do. She said after their first night in Marrakech, they felt totally safe. However, their parents kept texting them and making sure that everything is fine. But once they saw them visiting the driver’s family and having tea with them in the Sahara. They couldn’t believe that they worry about them while they are enjoying their time.
In that moment they start joking with them that they have a desire to join them. But after they finished their tour in Morocco, it wasn’t that difficult to convince their parents to visit after they knew Morocco is safe to travel to, and is safe for solo female traveler. So after that, they started to thing when they could visit the places their children have been to.
