Tour Code XKOP
 

Physical Rating You are required to carry your pack on and off trains and buses, up hotel steps, etc. Your itinerary may include easy paced walks or bike rides, but these are on mainly flat ground.
 

Culture Shock Rating The trip includes a range of accommodation, such as basic hotels with western facilities or overnight trains. Days of being on the move are well interspersed, communication with the outside world is ever-present and a wide variety of food is commonly available.
 

Gay Rating 2 (rating definition)

This trip travels to a relatively conservative area. We encourage you to experience the destination and culture with the following in mind:


Accommodation - We do not foresee any problems, however there may be occasions when a same sex couple may be asked to sleep in single beds rather than sharing a double. We appreciate your cooperation.

Public Display of affection - These are frowned upon in this region among all travellers, not just those on an OUT Adventure. This includes holding hands in public.

Gay Activities - This trip may not have specific gay hosted events, meals or day tours due to the cultural sensitivity of this region. We will do our best to provide a safe, comfortable environment for you and your fellow travellers to experience this culture.

"I couldn't have asked for a better trip! Our trip to Morocco was the most unique and unforgettable travel experience I've ever had. Now that I've been hit by the gay adventure travel bug, I can't wait to plan the next trip!"
