TOURIST
|
|
|
The season for package tours is from October until April and the destination is the modern seaside
resort Agadir, offering a mild sea climate and a sandy beach stretching for miles. For the
event-seeking individual Agadir will certainly look too "touristic" after a couple of days, but the
town serves as an excellent base for excursions to the Atlas mountains and to the Sahara desert.

FIRST TIME
|
|
|
Go by a regular flight to Casablanca or with a package tour to Agadir. The most famous places like
Marrakech, Fès, Tanger, Merzouga, Zagora, Todra et cetera should perhaps be visited under guidance
the first time. With a little experience of the country - and if the supply of money doesn't make a
problem - then the rented car is the ideal vehicle to explore Morocco.

ON YOUR OWN
|
|
Trains, buses, grand-taxi's, cycling - all the options exist to travel round at a small
cost. Best to start at Málaga and take the ferry to Melilla or bus and boat via Algeciras to Tanger
or Ceuta. Agadir is a good starting point for the southern area of the country.
Please consider that the attendance in the tourist areas of Morocco is exquisite from many
individuals, who look upon you as a source of income rather than as a traveller. Because of that it's
frequently trying to travel alone.

BEEN THERE
|
|
|
A prerequisite for the total experience of Morocco is that you enjoy the respect of the people. Dress
yourself well-groomed and not too exposed. Learn a few phrases of Arabic and speak French on other
occasions. Be kind and relaxed, tell storys, jokes and always keep a smile on your face. Be tough
when it comes to business, but generous with gratuity. Respect the religion, be careful in political
debates and - if you're a woman - travel preferably in company with a man (unless you don't mind to
endure harassments by persons who don´t respect women travelling on their own).
