Morocco travel guide

The currency in Morocco is the Moroccan dirham (MAD). Prices on TripRadr for tours and activities are shown in Canadian dollars (CAD). Check the current exchange rate before you travel.

Morocco keeps one hour ahead of UTC through the year, and moves clocks back one hour during Ramadan. Toronto is on Eastern Time, so check the difference for your travel dates. Toronto changes its clocks in spring and autumn, so the gap can shift during the year.

There are 2 seasons to plan around in Morocco. Best weather: March to May. Fewer crowds: October to November. Check the weather and any local events for your dates.

Major airports include Casablanca (CMN), Marrakech (RAK) and Fez (FEZ). Routes and flight times depend on the season and the airline. Check with the airline or travel site you book with.

The Government of Canada publishes travel advice and advisories for Morocco. Check it before you book and again before you leave. The advice can change, so TripRadr links to it instead of repeating it.

The main languages are Arabic, Amazigh and French. Signs, menus and tours may also be available in English in places that welcome visitors. Learning a few local phrases is a polite way to start a conversation.
