Single, Childfree & Ready for Morocco

This trip was created exclusively for for single and child-free women — those who aren’t in a committed partnership AND who do not have or parent children.

That being said, we have many other amazing trips available to specific groups or to the general public.

If you need help finding a trip that’s right for you, please reach out!

Hell no, you won’t! In fact, over half my travelers on international trips come solo, and they often leave with a whole new crew of friends.

My Morocco trips are practically designed for people to mix, mingle and bond over shared experiences (like discovering you're both equally terrible at haggling in the souk or riding camels after too much mint tea).

The beauty of our group is that everyone's there for the same reason: to experience Morocco's magic and meet cool people. You won't be the odd one out - we're basically creating a readymade friend group for you, complete with inside jokes and slightly embarrassing desert dance party photos by the end of the trip.

Some of the strongest friendships in my travel community started with "Hi, I'm here alone too!" at the welcome dinner in Marrakech. By the time we're watching the sunset over the Sahara together, you'll forget you ever came solo.

The age range on my trips typically lands between 35-50, but honestly? I've had 29-year-olds and 65-year-olds who were the absolute life of the group. It's less about your birth year and more about your mindset. If you're down for authentic experiences, can roll with unexpected plot twists, and don't mind a little sand in places you didn't know sand could reach, you'll fit right in. My travelers are united by curiosity and a desire to experience Morocco beyond the Instagram spots – age is just trivia for the "two truths and a lie" games we'll play over dinner.

Let's get real about safety in Morocco - this isn't your typical sanitized resort destination, which is exactly why it's worth visiting.

I purposely build trips around places that trigger your mom's "be careful over there" texts. These destinations are often misunderstood, with outdated warnings and sensationalized media coverage scaring away the tourists who stick to the predictable spots.

That's where group travel comes in clutch. Traveling with our crew, professional drivers, and local guides (who become friends by day two) gives you access to the Morocco most travelers never experience. I've personally tested every route, accommodation, and experience on this itinerary multiple times to ensure it's as secure as it is awesome.

That said, no place on earth comes with a safety guarantee - not even your neighborhood Target parking lot. Common sense still applies here. That's why I'll prepare you with specific Morocco safety intel before we go.

LGBTQ+ Travelers in Morocco

For LGBTQ+ travelers considering this trip, here are some important things to know:

• Group Safety: Our Morocco trip is designed as a group experience with local guides and drivers. You'll rarely be without a Moroccan guide/driver unless inside accommodations or at dinner, providing an additional layer of security.

• Cultural Context: Morocco is a conservative Muslim country with traditional values. While LGBTQ+ tourists visit regularly without issues, public displays of affection between any couples (straight or LGBTQ+) are frowned upon culturally.

• Transgender Travelers: Our local partners have hosted transgender travelers many times without incident. The structured nature of our trip—traveling in a private van with me and a male driver throughout—provides additional security. Solo exploration is always optional, and you'll have the choice to stay with guides.

• Privacy & Respect: This trip is about experiencing Morocco's incredible culture and landscapes, not about having to conceal your identity. That said, Morocco isn't the destination for seeking out LGBTQ+ specific venues or being openly activist.

I can't promise Morocco is the most progressive destination, but in the context of our small group with trusted local partners, travelers of all backgrounds consistently have transformative experiences. If you have specific concerns, I'm happy to discuss them privately.

Remember: The Moroccans we stay with have shown nothing but genuine hospitality to everyone in my groups - it's what makes this country so special.

This trip doesn't require Olympic training, but it's no poolside vacation either. We'll cover a ton of ground (literally) on this road trip to soak up everything Morocco has to offer. Expect daily walking through medinas and ancient sites, some camel-wrangling in the Sahara (they're basically desert ships with attitude problems), ATV adventures across the dunes, and an incredible hot air balloon ride for the early risers.

Don't worry though - our private transportation between destinations doubles as mobile nap pods. Those bus rides through the Atlas Mountains are perfect for recharging, journaling about that haggling victory in the souk, or just staring out the window wondering how you'll explain to people back home what it feels like to watch the sun set over endless sand dunes. This trip strikes that sweet spot between thrilling adventure and relaxation.

While this itinerary is packed (Morocco's too damn cool to waste a minute), I've deliberately built in pockets of freedom throughout. You'll have dedicated free time in cities like Marrakech and Fes to wander aimlessly, perfect your haggling skills, or just sit at a café watching the world go by.

And here's the real deal: nothing is mandatory. If your introvert battery needs recharging or a particular activity isn't your jam, opt out guilt-free. That said, everything on this itinerary has survived my ruthless vetting process. I've personally test-driven all these experiences and cut anything that wasn't worth your time or got mixed reviews from past groups.

This trip strikes that sweet spot between "holy shit, I can't believe we're doing all this!" and "thank god I have time to just exist in this amazing place." You get all the good stuff without the typical tourist bullshit.

This is one of those "how long is a piece of string?" questions, but I'll break it down for you.

Since most of your big expenses are covered in the trip cost, you're mostly looking at spending money for small extras, drinks, and shopping binges in the medinas (and holy shit, the shopping is GOOD).

I'd suggest about $25 a day for casual spending, but if you're eyeing those gorgeous Moroccan rugs, leather goods, or ceramics, you might want to bring more. The bargains are ridiculous compared to what you'd pay back home for similar items.

You'll also want to set aside money for tips for our guide and driver - these guys will become your best friends and will absolutely earn their appreciation by the end of our journey.

Pro tip: Having some $1 bills is super helpful for those random moments, like when you need to use a bathroom or want to tip a camel handler for getting that perfect desert photo of you.

You bet! I get that dropping thousands on a trip all at once isn't exactly pocket change for most of us.

Here's how it works: You'll put down a $1,000 non-refundable deposit to lock in your spot.

After that, we'll split the remaining balance into manageable chunks that won't make your credit card cry. Just keep in mind that you're responsible for making these payments on time - I've got a waitlist of people ready to pounce on any opened spots, so missed payments mean forfeiting your place without a refund.

All payments need to be wrapped up by December 1, 2025, which gives you plenty of time to budget for this life-changing adventure. And trust me, when you're riding a camel into the sunset across the Sahara, you'll forget all about the payment plan and just wonder why you didn't do this sooner.

Yes, you will need a passport valid beyond October 1, 2026.

If you do not have a passport, I recommend you start the process right away, as it can take several months to receive it. If you need assistance with this, feel free to reach out!

Look, we hope you don't bail on us, but we're not naive enough to think life won't occasionally throw curveballs at your calendar.

Here's the deal: All trip payments are non-refundable.

We promise we're not being jerks - we're running a small boutique operation here, not Carnival Cruise Lines. When you pay your deposit, that money immediately goes to our local partners (who also don't offer refunds), and filling last-minute spots is a massive time-suck that our small team can't absorb.

If you're worried about potential cancellations, grab yourself some travel insurance with trip cancellation coverage. It's like a safety net for your wallet when life decides to be an asshole.

(See the next FAQ about travel insurance recommendations if you're the "but what if I break my leg the day before?" type.)

Yes, travel insurance is required for this trip. You'll need at minimum the basic post-departure/medical coverage (usually around $50), but I strongly recommend a package with trip cancellation benefits.

While travel insurance isn’t the sexiest part of your trip, that $50 policy might be the smartest money you'll ever spend. I've had travelers have canceled flights, lost bags, and last-minute cancellations due to family emergencies.

Ask yourself: "Am I cool with setting fire to thousands of dollars if I can't make this trip?" If that thought makes you queasy, spring for the cancellation coverage.

I partner with Wanderwell for my travelers because they're not the typical insurance scammers. They actually cover what they say they will, and their claims process doesn't require a law degree to navigate.

Trust me, nothing ruins post-trip bliss like coming home to a stack of foreign medical bills or eating the cost of a trip you couldn't take.

If you want to learn more about travel insurance and are looking for a recommendation, you can learn more about my travel insurance partner, Wanderwell, here.

Wait until you get the green light from me to purchase your flights—I typically recommend 3-6 months prior to the trip, or as soon as I’ve finalized our group and arrival details.

I will be in contact with you regularly with reminders and assistance on purchasing fights, visas, insurance, packing, and more.

In the meantime, feel free to set up a flight alert on Google Flights to start monitoring prices. You will be flying into Casablanca airport (CMN) and departing from Marrakech (RAK). Alternatively, you can get a round trip flight to/from Casablanca, and either fly from Marrakech to Casablanca or Laura can arrange a driver for you (approximately a 3 hour drive).
