Women's Travel Guideto Morocco

“I was nervous before my first solo trip to Morocco, but within hours of arriving in Essaouira, those fears melted away. A local woman at the market taught me how to pick the best spices, my riad host became like a second mother, and by the end of two weeks, I had a network of Moroccan women friends who still message me regularly. Morocco did not just meet my expectations, it completely transformed my idea of what solo travel could be.”

“As a woman in my forties who had never traveled alone, booking a women-only group tour to Morocco was the best decision I ever made. We visited argan oil cooperatives, learned to cook tagine in a Berber village, rode camels at sunset, and stayed in the most beautiful riads. The Moroccan women we met were strong, warm, and hilarious. I went expecting a vacation and came home with a new perspective on life.”

“I spent a month in Morocco as a digital nomad, splitting my time between Marrakech and Taghazout. The coworking spaces are great, the cost of living is low, and the surf community in Taghazout is incredibly welcoming to women. I surfed every morning, worked in the afternoon, and explored on weekends. The biggest surprise was how safe I felt, even walking home alone at night in Taghazout.”

“Morocco was deeply meaningful for me as a Black American woman. The warmth and lack of racial tension was immediately noticeable. People were curious about where I was from and genuinely friendly. Visiting the women's cooperatives and seeing how they support each other inspired me. The Sahara desert at sunrise brought me to tears. Morocco felt like coming home to a place I had never been.”
