Budgeting for Morocco

Please utilize the following information to help you budget for your personal expenses in Morocco.

Personal Budget

Although most everything will be included, depending on your booked tour, we recommend mapping out a personal budget for your lunches, alcoholic drinks, and souvenirs before departure. Even if you bring a debit or credit card, to be safe, we recommend you plan on preparing to use cash in most locations, as many local artisans and street vendors will only accept cash. If you plan for cash, spending money will be a breeze for you. Nonetheless, please budget according to your spending habits. You are free to bring as much cash money as you please. USD is widely accepted in Morocco with the exception of rural areas and like the aforementioned, some local artisans and street vendors. Depending on your home country, we recommend exchanging currency with your home bank before departure or at any international airport.

Remember, you will not need to budget for anything in the “Included” section of your booked tour description, nor the transportation to any of those experiences/excursions. You will only need to budget for the items found below that are not included in your tour.
