Do I need a Visa to enter Morocco?

Los ciudadanos de muchos países no necesitan visado para entrar en Marruecos. Recibirá un sello de entrada en su pasaporte a su llegada.

Lo haces no need to apply for a tourist visa for the Morocco Tour if you are a citizen of the United States, Canada, Australia, Great Britain or any of the other countries listed here.

Necesitará un pasaporte con una validez de seis meses más allá de su estancia y un billete de avión de ida y vuelta. El pasaporte debe tener al menos una página en blanco.

How do exchange money in Morocco?

Si tiene dólares estadounidenses, euros o libras esterlinas, puede cambiar su dinero en una oficina de cambio al llegar al aeropuerto o a su hotel, pero el tipo de cambio no será tan bueno como el de las oficinas de cambio que encontraremos en otros lugares. Nuestra guía puede ayudarle a encontrar el mejor lugar para cambiar su dinero en efectivo por moneda local.

En Marruecos suele haber problemas para dar el cambio y puede ser difícil pagar con billetes grandes, así que asegúrese de conseguir billetes de menor denominación (de 10 y 20), ya que esto le facilitará la vida a la hora de pagar artículos económicos como bebidas y recuerdos.

Will we bring luggage to the Sahara Desert?

Sí. Sólo pasaremos una o dos noches como máximo en el Sáhara y, aunque viajaremos al campamento de tiendas de campaña en camello (opcional), el equipaje se llevará en vehículo o se podrá guardar con seguridad en el hotel/Riad encargado de gestionar el campamento del desierto.

¿Tendremos electricidad en las tiendas del campamento de lujo en el Sahara?

Sí, definitivamente hay energía en las tiendas.
