Millions of tourists visit Marrakech every year without trouble. Violent crime against visitors is rare.

Common minor issues

Persistent unofficial guides: a firm "no thank you" works. Stay mindful of belongings on Jemaa el-Fna at night. Always negotiate taxis and souvenirs before paying.

Getting around the medina

Getting a little lost is normal. Keep the riad address and our number +212 661 13 22 74 handy. Leave valuables in the safe, dress modestly outside tourist areas. Riad Dar Kawkawa is always available to advise.
