How to contact us during Covid-19
The majority of foreign nationals visiting Morocco do not need a visa if their trip is up to 90 days. This includes citizens from the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, the UK, Ireland and any EU country. However, your passport needs to be valid for a minimum of six months beyond your date of entry.
For the most part, Morocco is a safe country to travel and the crime rate is low. Muggings are pretty rare, but you can reduce the risk by remaining vigilant at transport areas and major cities. Be especially careful at night in the medinas — those in Marrakesh, Tangier and Casablanca have a reputation for petty theft.
The best time to visit Morocco depends on which part of the country you visit. Overall, spring (mid-March to May) and autumn (September-October) are the best times to visit when temperatures are pleasantly warm. The coastal regions can be visited year-round, but the hottest months (June-September) are the most popular times to enjoy the best of the beach weather. If you’re travelling to the Sahara, bring extra layers — they’ll help keep you warm during the very cold nights and protect you from the Sahara’s often brutal sun and sand.

English, Spanish and French (after living in Belgium for 5 years).
TOURS LED:
Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, Chile, Argentina, Cuba, Poland, the Baltic States, Portugal, Spain and Morocco.
FAVOURITE DESTINATION:
I love travelling in Central America. The natural history is astounding, all the birds, mammals, flora and fauna! As a certified diver and avid sportsman, the area offers many opportunities for diving, kayaking and rafting.
ABOUT:
Growing up in an international environment allowed me to interact with people from different cultures and learn from them. I would say that's when I became a traveler...
To me, traveling is not only about the sites and highlights of a destination, it's mostly about the people and their history, about how they solve things. It's about their lives!
