Question 1

Are COVID-19 vaccinations required for my Indico Travels tour?

Accepted Answer

To help protect our travelers, employees and local communities on our tours, we require all participants to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 before the start of the trip. Indico Travels may request official documentation of vaccination, which will be required as a part of the booking process.  Please note, you must be fully vaccinated - this means receiving the full dosage of the COVID-19 vaccine and allowing enough time for it to take effect.  Each vaccine differs in timelines, so please check the medical advice for the vaccine you have taken.

Are there exemptions? If for some reason you are unable to be vaccinated for medical reasons, you can apply for exemption, which will be assessed on a case by case basis.  To apply for an exemption, please contact us.

Which vaccines are recognized? We recognize any vaccines for COVID-19 authorized by the country where the vaccine was given including: Oxford AstraZeneca, Pfizer-BioNtech, Sinopharm, Sinovac, Sputnik, Johnson & Johnson, Moderna, and Covaxin.

What proof of vaccination may be required? Official documentation of vaccination either in paper or digital format are required. Here are some examples including but not limited to: USA traveler - CDC vaccination record, EU travelers - EU Digital COVID Pass, UK travelers: NHS card

How will you ensure the safety of my data/vaccination records? Your vaccination status and documentation will be stored in our secure CRM system that is fully compliant with German data protection rules.

Question 2

Can you help with booking flights?

Accepted Answer

Weve found our travelers prefer to book their flights themselves as they can choose their local departure airport, and decide themselves whether to prioritise by cost of the flight, duration, airline etc. Were vry happy to give you tips on how to get the best flight deals - just drop us a note!

Question 3

Do I need to consider anything clothing wise?

Accepted Answer

Its generally advised to dress modestly in Morocco. Especially women should always cover their shoulders and never expose their knees. You dont need to cover your head, though. Light, loosely fitting clothes are not only appropriate, but also the most comfy choice in Moroccos dry heat.

Question 4

How do I pay in Morocco?

Accepted Answer

Moroccos official currency is the Dirham. Morocco is still very much a cash based society, so we advise always carrying some cash on you. Moroccans love haggling, so many services like taxi rides can be negotiated. As a tourist, you will generally pay more than locals, but its often possible to get a better deal, if youre willing to negotiate. Prices in restaurants, however, are generally fixed.

Question 5

Id like to arrive a day/some days earlier, or add a few days to the end of my trip. Can I?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely - we encourage that! We can help you extend your stay at the groups hotels, and give you tips for things to do regionally if you drop us a [message](https://www.indicotravels.com/contact). For some trips, there are also pre-planned excursions - check your trip itinerary.

Question 6

Ive never traveled with a tour group before - how do I know this is for me?

Accepted Answer

Many of our clients have never traveled with a travel group before - we hadnt either! Weve specifically developed our trips with solo travelers in mind, meaning we give you some spare time and space in which you can do our own thing, but you can also buddy up with people in the group if you like. Traveling with a tour group has great benefits: you get access to locations and communities you wouldnt get on your own, you travel with a local expert and everything is organised for you on the ground, so you can just relax into enjoying your new experiences. Plus, you get to meet a bunch of new people your age who are up for shared adventures!

Question 7

If Im not in my 30s & 40s, can I still join the trip?

Accepted Answer

Our trips are made specifically for people in their 30s and 40s, as we know there are many other travel brands out there catering to other age groups. If youre under 30 or over 49, do check out our sister brands Galapatours and Polartours, who offer boat excursions. If you speak German or French, we also have group travel sister brands that offer trips for all ages. Find our about them here: https://www.venturatravel.org/brands

Question 8

What vaccinations are recommended or required for my trip?

Accepted Answer

Please check our COVID-19 FAQ regarding COVID vaccinations. Aside from that, as a tour operator, we are not allowed to give specific vaccination recommendations for liability reasons. We strongly recommend that you consult your local doctor or, even better, a qualified doctor specialized in tropical diseases in good time before your trip. Here are some relevant links for residents of several countries: UK: [Gov.uk](https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice), USA: [U.S. Centers for Disease Control](https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/travel/destinations/list/) and Germany: [Auswärtiges Amt](https://www.auswaertiges-amt.de/de/ReiseUndSicherheit/reise-gesundheit/gesundheit-reise-laender/1609092). Please note that a yellow fever vaccination is not mandatory for this tour.

Question 9

When can I book my international flights?

Accepted Answer

As soon as we have confirmed that the minimum number of participants for your trip has been reached and the trip is therefore guaranteed to take place, you can book your flights. The trip will be confirmed or cancelled at least 45 days before departure. We will be happy to give you tips on booking flights! By the way: it is in our interest to fill the trips as soon as possible, so we do our best to confirm them as soon as possible.

Question 10

When is a trip guaranteed to take place?

Accepted Answer

A trip is guaranteed to take place when the minimum number of participants has been reached. If you have already booked before the minimum number of participants has been reached, we will let you know, so you can book your flights. We will confirm or cancel the trip no later than 45 days before the scheduled departure date. If a trip has to be cancelled unexpectedly, you will of course receive a 100% refund of your deposit or any other payments made.

Question 11

Where does the Morocco Trip Start & End?

Accepted Answer

You start off the tour in the city of Fez, spend two days there then head off into the Sahara to Ifrane, stopping along the way in a typical Berber town of Azrou.  From Ifrane you go to the city Merzouga. Then you go to Ouarzazate, and end the tour in famous Marrakesh. You will meet your group in late afternoon.
