Tangier, Morocco

Displayed:   times.

It is a major port of entrance from Spain to the otherwise beautiful and lovely Kingdom of Morocco. Expect to be pestered by dodgy characters from the second you exit the port to the second you get back on your ship. Locals will do anything to separate you from your money, so it is best not to do business, change on the black market or hang around longer than necessary. Don't trust the guys with badges who pretend to work for the shipping lines or to be immigration. That will have been the last time you see your passport! Only hand over your passport if demanded by police in uniform. Even then, if you are not 100% sure, ask/demand to go to the police station with him to verify his authenticity. It is best to get out of Tangier asap; this beautiful country has much more and much better to offer. More info on: www.world66.com
