Welcome to Morocco
We traveled to Morocco on a NCL cruise to the Canary Islands out of Barcelona in January of 2015
While this is a Muslim country they are definitely not as strict with their customs as other Muslim countries that you can visit. Of course some of the ones you really can’t visit are even more restrictive.
We had just one stop in Casablanca for the day
