Moroccans can be lovely hospitable people if you get the chance to know them. However... most offers of
hospitality such as 'come in for a cup of tea!' - in regular travel destinations will result in a
sales campaign.
So don't accept any.
- don't trust what young men on the street tell you and don't tell them where you're staying.
- be very clear and firm about your needs; indecision and vagueness could lead to unwanted pressure.
- all sorts of tricks are used to develop a relationship that will lead to sales, including the fake blue men
[as pictured above], the simple 'where are you from' or 'could you tell me what this says..'.
- Best to reply distantly to greetings and nothing more...Sad, isn't it? But Morocco really is worth the
hassle and non-sales people are relaxed, friendly and generous!
