What is your payment process?+
30% deposit to confirm, balance due 60 days before departure. We accept bank transfer and major cards.
What is your cancellation policy?+

Are your tours private?+
Yes — every tour is private. Your party, your vehicle, your guide. We never add strangers to fill seats.
How far ahead should I book?+

What is the best time to visit Morocco?+

Do I need a visa?+
USA, UK, EU, Canada, and Australia don't need a visa — 90-day stamp on arrival. Check your specific passport if you're unsure.
What currency is used?+
Moroccan Dirham (MAD). ATMs are widely available. Carry cash for souks, tips, and rural areas.
What should I pack?+
Light layers, modest clothing for medinas and mosques, comfortable walking shoes, sun protection, and any prescription medication.
