Recommended vaccinations, water and food, desert heat, altitude in the Atlas, pharmacies, medical insurance and what to do if you fall ill during your trip, explained by a local agency.
Which operator to choose, how to buy a SIM at the airport with your passport, when an eSIM makes sense, where coverage drops out in the Atlas and the desert, and how to avoid a roaming bill.

Morocco from December to February, region by region: sun by day, nights near freezing in the desert and the Atlas, snow on the passes, routes that work and what clothes to bring.
