Morocco Imperial Cities Tours

Yes. Morocco is considered a safe and very welcoming country. But even thought it has low crime rates if compared to other places, of course common sense is applied and we always tell visitors to take care of their belongings and consult their tour guide or leader in case of any concerns.

Fortunately Morocco is great at any time, therefore our Morocco Tours run all throughout the year. Yet, the favourite time for most visitors is from mid-March to May (spring) and from September to October (fall), when it is a good type of warm weather.

The Moroccan Dirham (MAD) is the currency of Morocco. The name “Dirham” derivates from the Roman word “denarius”, which means money. Currently 1USD = 9 MAD.

If you are cancelling your Morocco Tour Package for personal reasons, the refunded amount will depend on how far in advance you notify us about your change of plans. Nevertheless, if cancelation reasons are weather conditions or circumstances out of your control, Memphis Tours grant you a full refund of the paid amount.

There is simple a lot to do in Morocco. On the top of the list is riding a camel in the desert, go sand boarding on the dunes of Erg Chebbi, enjoy a traditional Berber camping, visit roman ruins, have a traditional Moroccan mint tea, walk around the medinas, and even climb and hike in Todra Gorge for the adventure ones.

You don't need to learn Arabic in order to have a great time in Morocco. But in any country that you visit it will always be welcome to know some few words or how to greet people. In some local areas or less touristic places it can also be very useful. Other than that, French is the second language in Morocco.

If you are having a Morocco Tour during summer take care of your skin by covering it with light clothes and always have sun block with you. Keep yourself hydrate and be away of tap water.
