Don’t Drink Tap Water (unless you are a localite)-

People of Marrakech are very fond of Tap and Distilled water. They find it safe to drink and has a habit to drink it on a regular basis. Although, this, their belief is not wrong because it’s purely filtered, reunited, and then passed to the localities. It’s quality is unpredictable if compared to mineral water. Tourists may not be settled with the taste of tap water and may not suit their taste buds and therefore, It is advisable for them to opt for mineral water as it is quite reasonable and worthy.

Do Not Exchange Your Money At The Airport-

To exchange your currency to Dirhams (the currency of Marrakech) from any other currency, it is advisable to change it to the nearby banks. Although, Airports always put up a signboard mentioning “No commissions while exchange” but they end up charging 20-30% with them. Banks are comparatively more prone to their words and give you a worthy and reasonable exchange rate. It’s a good idea to get your cash from the airport only, if you want to be on a worthy trip.

Give A Second Thought To What You Buy-

It happens in almost all the countries to make the tourists prey to their trap. It’s more likely to have a general knowledge about the local listings of the beautiful products served in Marrakech. The shopkeepers in the souks hike their prices by 50% once they realize you are unfamiliar to the place. It depends on your presence of mind on how to deal with it. It is our utmost suggestion to always give another thought to the prices listed by them. But do shop because it makes soul happy. Afterall, Being aware is the silent self-defence for a tourist

Don’t Completely Rely On Products As Quality Products-

It’s a general belief by the tourists to trust the materiality of the products and buy them thinking they will be used for a long time. But, sadly, this mentality is scammed by local shopkeepers and deliver the products which are cheap in nature and sold for a higher price. Being aware of the material and reasonable rates should be an ultimate motto for your trip.
