What to photograph
Drones in Morocco
Drones are heavily restricted and may need prior authorisation; without it, customs will probably hold on to yours. Check the current rules with official sources before you pack it. For the rest of your gear, read what to pack for Morocco, and message us with what you want to photograph.
Frequently asked questions: Photography tours
Can I bring a drone to Morocco?
Drone use is heavily restricted and bringing one in may require prior authorisation from the authorities. If you don't have it, there is a good chance it will be held at customs. Always check with official sources before you travel.
Is it easy to photograph people in Morocco?
It has to be done with respect: ask permission before photographing someone and accept no for an answer. Some street performers or vendors may ask for a tip in exchange for the photo.
Do the photography tours include a professional photographer?
Our photography tours are planned around the light and the locations, with a Spanish-speaking driver. If you would like a specialist photographer or guide to come with you, ask us and we will check availability.
