Information for travelers

We’ve put together answers, tips, and tricks for travelers. If you have any further questions, feel free to contact us.

Transport

Det er både nemt og overkommeligt at komme rundt i Marokko - i hverdagen såvel som i fritiden.

Du bor i et roligt kystområde - ca. 25 minutters kørsel nord for Agadir med gåafstand til stranden, små lokale butikker, caféer og flere populære udflugtsmål. Du bor i Tamraght, som er kendt for sin afslappede stemning og gode adgang til både natur og lokalt byliv.

  • You can use local buses, which are inexpensive and run regularly between city districts and surrounding areas, as well as directly to your internship location.

  • Taxis are generally inexpensive and easy to find, and you can easily share them with other participants. They usually run on a meter. Praktikrejsen with a few regular drivers whom we know well.

    Alternatively, you can use InDrive—a popular ride-sharing app in Morocco where you can suggest a price for your ride, and the driver can choose to accept or negotiate. This often makes it cheaper than traditional taxis and is used daily by both locals and travelers. Please note that InDrive is not officially regulated in Morocco.

  • The host at the accommodation is always happy to help with transportation and excursions. Whether you’re looking for a short trip in the local area or a full-day excursion further afield, they can help arrange transportation to suit your needs—even for small or large groups. It’s a flexible and convenient solution, especially if there are several of you who want to explore the area together.

  • There is a regular bus service to and from the clinic on weekdays—it’s included in the package.

Language

In Morocco, you can get by just fine with English, especially in the local area and in Agadir, but at your internship site, some of the professional communication takes place in French. However, you don’t need to be fluent in French—language barriers are completely normal, and you can participate and learn as you go, while also getting a chance to pick up some French medical vocabulary that can be useful both on the job and during breaks.
