  3. Volubilis: Roman ruins. source

Know before you go

  • Cover shoulders and knees, especially at religious sites and in rural areas; keep beachwear for the beach. source
  • Morocco has zero tolerance for drugs, cannabis included; expect long jail terms and heavy fines. source
  • Ask before photographing people, especially children; photographing military sites is illegal. source
  • Many beaches have few or no lifeguards and strong currents; swim at designated beaches. source

Tips that help

  • Children 4 to 11 pay half on trains; older children pay full fare on buses and grands taxis. source
  • Tourist SIMs from Maroc Telecom, Orange or Inwi start around US$10–15 with several GB of data. source
  • In souks, aim to pay about half the asking price. source

The law, plainly

  • Drones need permission from the civil aviation authority; Canada says they are confiscated on entry. source
