"Bartering is a way of life in Morocco, for the best deals keep light-hearted and jovial, it's a game after all. A good deal is a price you are willing to pay!"

Taking Photos
Always ask when snapping pictures of the locals, especially in the rural areas. Pairing with a complement often helps or take from distance and utilise your zoom.
Touts and Hustlers
In general Morocco is very safe so relax and smile when dealing with touts and hustlers. Politely, but firmly decline, don’t engage and act as if you know where you are going.
Cover up
Whilst locals are used to tourists, it is respectful to cover up your knees and shoulders, so make sure you have a scarf, which will also help against the sun and sand while in the desert.
Pack warm clothes
The desert conjures up images of searing heat and baking hot sun, but once the sun sets then temperatures can really plummet to below zero so be sure to pack some warm clothes.
