CITIES TO VISIT

Geography of Morocco

VISA INFORMATIONMorocco is one of some countries that they don’t need to get a Visa, But if is the case, AIESEC help on that by sending an Invitation Letter from our LC, to get your visa easily. Some countries can do a visa procedures at the airport, But first you have to ask Moroccan Embassy in your country for more details, here the contacts : http://embassy.goabroad.com/embassies-of/morocco

Transportation in Fez :First thing you’ll get to experience in Morocco is the train ! And your first stop at Fez will be the train station: One of the largest train stations in Morocco. Then you’ll get to ride taxis, in Fez they’re painted in red. We have another type of taxis, that usually travels in and out of the city, you’ll notice them because they’re white really old Mercedes. We might ride them to go visit Ifrane and the regions.Then there’s the small buses, painted in white and blue, we have more the 57 lines that can drive you anywhere around the city.

Electricity

What type of electrical adapter plugs to use in

Morocco :

There are two different types of electrical sockets

commonly found in Morocco.

Older sockets are two pin, similar to, or the same as,

the CEE 7/16 europlug that you can see:

Some newer buildings, however, will have a grounded

version of the two-pin socket in which an earth pin

sticks out from the socket (the CEE 7/5 design on the

link above). Unless your adapter has a hole to accept

the earth pin you WILL NOT be able to physically insert

the adapter into the socket.

From what I can see of the description, this adapter

seems suitable

we are waiting to welcome

you :)
