SOLO TRAVELERS/BACKPACKERS!

Hey guys,

Just wanting to hear from anyone who has visited Morocco during their backpacking adventures? Really wanting to head there during my indefinite travels backpacking... how did you go with hostels/costs, visa, prices as a backpacker and being alone (especially females) etc. I am 21/Female who will be traveling solo

Thanks!!

What areas do you have in mind? Are you looking to stay at different locations throughout? I found it's optimal to rent a furnished apartment. I've stayed in Taroudant and currently near Agadir with my wife. E.U. and U.S. passports don't require a visa. Travel expenses are not high at all if you know where to go. If you have any further questions email me and I'll be more than happy to guide you. mv1spdln@yahoo.com. Good luck:D

Brookejenna, if you are blonde and look like a playmate, you will never be alone. :-)

Its called a Guidebook, Morocco has been a popular backpacker destination for Europeans for decades, get the LP, Moon or Shoestring, your question is too general, you dont mention time of year, as there is cold winter and hot summer, you dont mention how many days, and you dont mention interest.

Hey Brookejenna: I agree with the poster who said u need to invest in a guidebook. U can try ur local library if ur in the USA and dont want to buy one. I cant emphasize enuff the need to do more individual research so that u can narrow ur focus. That will also help others who may try to help u. The Lonely Planet Morocco is the best I have found.

I'm sure you're both smart enough to put together the fact I know what a guidebook is and to purchase one. I am more interested in hearing personal stories from people who have backpacked morocco solo and how they generally found it and any tips they feel necessary to share which is more what this question is asking if you have another read, not about the weather and specific locations -thanks anyway though
