Most Important Items
Passport
Photocopies of Passport
- bring one or two and leave one at home
Visa (if necessary)
- Please visit our Visa Information page for more details on whether or not you need a visa.
Cash Money
- USD is widely accepted in Morocco, but you can also use credit cards in most places. The only exceptions are in rural areas.
Debit / Credit Cards
Driver’s License
- for extra ID purposes if necessary
Appropriate Luggage Size
- We recommend bringing carry-on size luggage if possible, but at most, no larger than medium size. This will allow for assured space during transport and will greatly add in the ease of your tour.
Clothes
Comfortable Walking / Hiking Shoes
Evening Shoes / Flip Flops
- We do not recommend high-heels, as all roads and sidewalks are not created equal.
Undergarments / Socks / Bras / Sports Bras
Pants / Shorts / Skirts
- Pants are sometimes required for men if you are visiting certain venues (mosques, entertainment venues, etc), but you are mostly free to dress as you please. For this reason that you might want to enter a mosque or other venue that requires pants, we recommend bringing at least one pair of pants (for men). Women, to enter a mosque, shorts are not allowed, nor are mini-skirts. The requirement is modest clothing.
Collared Shirts / T-shirts / Relaxing Shirts
Thin Rain Coat
- rainy season is November to March, but the average rainfall is low
Bandana / Hat
Travel Pillow
- pillows will be supplied in your BnBs (known as a "Riad" in Morocco)
Travel Towel
- in case you get wet while at the beach, swimming in waterfalls, hiking, etc
Toiletries / Other
Journal / Pens
Dirty Clothes Bag
Water Bottle
- This is extremely helpful if you like to have water throughout your day or will be engaging in physical activity on your tour. Note that an insulated water bottle will also help keeping your beverages cool.
Sunglasses
Sunscreen
Ear Plugs for light sleepers
Toothbrush, Toothpaste, Razor, Shaving Cream, Deodorant, Soap, Shampoo

- It doesn't always rain in the rainy season, but this could be helpful for tours booked in the rainy season (November to March)
Electronics
Cell Phone & Chargers
- Your phone may or may not work in Morocco. Please consult your provider before departure.
Headlamp / Flashlight
- This is helpful if you decide to journey into a cave or if you decide to roam about at night, as not every street is well-lit.
Camera
Important Notes: Morocco typically uses type C & E electric outlets. Plug type C is the plug which has two round pins and plug type E is the plug which has two round pins and a hole for the socket’s male earthing pin. Morocco typically uses 220V and 50Hz. Please refer to your home country outlet type to determine if you need electrical adapters or possibly a converter.
Usually phone and computer chargers have a current converter in them, where other electronics like curling irons, straighteners, and hair dryers may not.
Things Not To Pack
Drones
- they are illegal
High-heels
- difficult to walk around in on some streets
Short Shorts or Mini-Skirts
- You likely won’t be shamed if you wear these items, but women in Morocco dress modestly, and covering your thighs and knees is most important in their culture.
Unnecessary Valuables
- flashy jewelry, unnecessary electronic devices, etc
Important Note: Morocco is safe to visit, but we highly recommend bringing only the devices that you will use like a cell phone & camera. Having multiple devices, especially in public, can make one a target for theft. It also gives more opportunity for more items to get lost and we don’t want either for any of our travelers.
