Camel Ride TripsSolo Female Travel in Morocco: Private Tours
Many women travel to Morocco on their own and love it. A private tour makes it easier: your own driver-guide, hand-picked riads, licensed local guides in the medinas and a local team you can message anytime during your trip. Here is our honest advice, from people who have welcomed solo travelers since 2014.

Is Morocco safe for women traveling alone?
Morocco is generally safe for women traveling alone, and many solo female travelers visit every year. The most common problem is unwanted attention, such as comments or persistent sellers in busy medinas, rather than serious danger. A private tour reduces this a lot: you travel with your own driver-guide, explore the medinas with licensed local guides and stay in hand-picked riads. Camel Ride Trips recommends 7 to 14-day private tours for solo women.

An honest look at safety
Serious crime against tourists is rare in Morocco. What many women notice is attention: comments in the street, sellers who insist, or people offering to show you the way in the medina. It is usually harmless, but it can be tiring.
Traveling privately changes this a lot. In the medinas you walk with a licensed guide, between cities you travel in your own car, and in the desert you stay at a camp run by our own team.
What to wear in Morocco
- Light, loose clothes that cover shoulders and knees are comfortable and respectful, especially in medinas and villages.
- A scarf is useful for sun, dust in the desert and visiting religious sites.
- In the Sahara, bring a warm layer for the evening and closed shoes for the sand.
- Big cities like Casablanca and Marrakech are more relaxed, but modest clothes still help you avoid attention.
Tips from our team
- A polite "la, shukran" (no, thank you) and walking on usually ends any conversation.
- Ask your guide before taking photos of people.
- Keep your accommodation details on your phone and share your itinerary with someone at home.
- Use our WhatsApp line at any time if you need advice during the trip.
The best tours for solo women
Solo travelers often choose our 12-day luxury desert tour for its comfort and two nights in the Sahara, or the 14-day Morocco at Leisure for a slower pace. If you have one week, the 7-day luxury tour covers Chefchaouen, Fes, the desert and Marrakech.
Every tour is available in three levels: Basic (clean 2–3 star hotels), Mid-Range (3–4 star hotels and traditional riads) and Luxury (4–5 star hotels, boutique riads and a luxury desert tent with its own bathroom).

Is Morocco safe for a woman traveling alone?
Generally yes. Unwanted attention in busy medinas is the most common issue, not serious danger. A private tour with your own driver-guide and licensed city guides makes the trip much easier.
What should women wear in Morocco?
Light, loose clothes that cover shoulders and knees, plus a scarf. Bring a warm layer for desert nights.
Can I sleep in the desert camp alone?
Yes. You can have your own private tent. Our team runs the camp experience in Merzouga and looks after you during your stay.
Do you run group tours for solo travelers?
Our website tours are private, so you travel only with your own driver-guide. We also run a few shared tours on Viator if you prefer to meet other travelers.
How long should a solo trip to Morocco be?
One week covers the classic highlights. For a relaxed trip with more nights in each place, we recommend 12 to 14 days.
