Travelers from many countries do not need a visa to visit Morocco for a period of up to 90 days. Currently, citizens of Australia, New Zealand, the USA, the UK, the EU, and Canada, among many others, do not need a visa to travel to Morocco, provided they have a passport of usually six months' validity and with proof of an onward or return ticket. If you do need a visa, you can submit an application either electronically or via your nearest Moroccan embassy, consulate, or visa center

You can request a friend to be your roommate upon checkout. If you'd prefer not to have a roommate, private room options are available upon request, subject to hotel availability for an extra charge. Please contact bookings@und30experiences.com for more details.

A traditional Moroccan riad is a home with multiple stories that centers around an open-air courtyard that contains a fountain. Riads were once the estates of the wealthiest citizens, merchants, and courtiers. The building is in the shape of a rectangle with different rooms on each of the four sides. In the modern era, most riads have been converted to boutique hotels and guesthouses.

Moderate. This trip is a good mix of activity and relaxation and includes moderate physical activities. Participants should expect to be active 3-4 hours most days. An active lifestyle is helpful though not required to enjoy the trip.

Of course! This is your trip, and you don’t have to participate in anything you don’t want to. We can also help you set up other optional activities if you'd rather do that. Please be aware that opting out of included activities will not change the price of your trip.

You’ll be in private, comfortable, and air-conditioned vehicles throughout your entire trip.

The lighter, the better! If you only have a rolling suitcase, that will work, but if you can get your hands on a more mobile bag, like a large backpack, that would be better. We take all forms of transportation. You'll also want a daypack for your personal gear, food, and drinks for the day.

We recommend you don't drink tap water in Morocco, even in hotels, as it contains much higher levels of different minerals than the water you may have at home. Bottled water is widely available in Morocco. Don’t forget to pack motion sickness tablets and diarrhea blockers in your first aid kit.

To respect local dress codes and customs, we recommend dressing more conservatively than you do at home. To respect the local conservative culture, please avoid wearing short skirts and shorts. Try to wear shirts that are loose and cover the shoulders and stomach. It is common for Moroccans to wear shirts with sleeves past their elbows wearing long pants is the norm. Though younger Moroccans are wearing shorts more often these days, the custom is to wear long pants.

Yes, laundry is available in most hotels at an additional cost. Ask your Trip Leader for more information.

Credit cards are accepted by most hotels, restaurants, and shops. However, smaller vendors and market stalls often only accept cash. Do expect to be using cash for most of your daily transactions, especially in the medinas (markets), as local vendors will not have a credit card machine.

Yes. 10% is the standard. In restaurants, a 10% service charge is typically added to the bill. If you use a taxi service, it is considerate to round up to the closest dirham (MAD).

Morocco has been and remains a popular destination for LGBTQ+ travelers despite being an Islamic country where homosexuality is illegal and punishable by law. However, this should not stop you from visiting while exercising appropriate caution as you explore Morocco’s ancient history, architecture, and culture. LGBTQ+ people in Morocco have faced significant legal and societal barriers. Homosexuality is seen by most of the population as a threat to the “traditional values'' that support the expectation of heterosexual norms and Muslim teachings. Like any visitor to a foreign country, LGBTQ+ or not, it’s important to respect local culture and customs. With that said major cities like Tangier, Marrakech, and Agadir have many LGBTQ+-friendly spots.

No. Private use of drones is strictly forbidden in Morocco. Individuals found in possession of a drone in Morocco should be prepared for confiscation, coupled with a fine of over 100 USD.
