    Travel Tips & Practical Information

    What to Know Before You Go

    Many countries can enter Morocco without a visa for stays of up to 90 days. However, it’s important to check visa requirements based on your nationality before traveling.

    Weather in Morocco

    Morocco has a diverse climate. Coastal areas like Casablanca are mild, while the interior, such as Marrakech, can be very hot, especially in summer. The Atlas Mountains are cooler, and the desert can be scorching during the day and chilly at night.

    Cancellation Policy

    When booking tours or accommodations, always check the cancellation policy. Many services require 24-48 hours’ notice for a full refund, but this can vary, especially during peak seasons.
