Henna, snake or monkey photo on Jemaa el-Fnaa: what does it cost?
Nothing you didn't agree to. Henna artists sometimes start on your hand before you say yes, and handlers put a monkey on your shoulder or a snake round your neck, then ask for money.
Keep your hands to yourself, say no and walk on. If you want a photo of a performer, agree the price first; a small amount is normal, and pay only what you agreed.
What travellers say goes wrong
Henna applied without asking, a monkey on your shoulder, then a demand for 100–200 MAD.
