Morocco
Morocco is located in the northwestern corner of Africa.
The official language is Arabic, with Berber dialects spoken in rural areas. French, Spanish, and English are also widely spoken in the larger cities.
Morocco is a country where 99% of the people identify themselves as Muslim. Men and women should wear appropriate clothing if they don't want to offend anyone.
Port of Tangier & Port of Casablanca: around 20 minute walk from the port to main town
Port of Agadir: around 35-45 minute walk from the port to the main town. Walking is not recommended.
If you're planning to disembark your cruise ship while in Morocco, it's strongly recommended that you opt for a guided tour instead of exploring on your own. Locals at the cruise arrival areas and in town can be quite pushy with their sales.
