Morocco is one of the safest countries in Africa for tourists. However, cultural norms differ from the West. Here is how to travel with confidence:

1. Dress Modestly

While not strict, dressing modestly (covering shoulders and knees) is respectful, especially in rural areas. It also invites less unwanted attention.

2. Navigate the Medinas Smartly

Google Maps works well, but the narrow alleys of Fes and Marrakech can be confusing. If you get lost, ask a shopkeeper or hire an official guide—avoid unofficial "guides" on the street.

3. Drink Bottled Water

Tap water is generally chlorinated but can upset sensitive stomachs. Stick to bottled mineral water to stay hydrated and happy.
