What are some Morocco travel horror stories?

Yes. A common one is about aggressive street vendors. They can be overly pushy when trying to sell their goods. For instance, they might surround tourists and not leave them alone until they buy something or give a firm 'no' many times. It can be quite intimidating for some travelers.

Another might be dealing with over - aggressive street vendors. They can be extremely pushy, following you around and not taking no for an answer. It can be really intimidating, especially if you're not used to such assertive sales tactics. You might feel harassed and unable to enjoy your time exploring the local markets.

There have been horror stories about accommodation being misrepresented. You book a place thinking it has certain amenities like air - conditioning or a great view, but when you get there, it's nothing like what was advertised. It can be a huge disappointment, especially if you've paid a significant amount for it.

A novel approach might involve highlighting lesser-known cultural aspects of Morocco, like local handicrafts and traditional music, to attract a more diverse range of tourists. This could involve organizing special festivals or workshops.

A couple once booked their honeymoon through a travel agent. When they arrived at their so - called 'luxury resort', it was a run - down place with dirty rooms and bad food. The travel agent had promised them a five - star experience. Turns out, the agent had never actually visited the place and just went by the pictures on the website which were clearly very old and misrepresented the actual state of the resort.

One horror story could be getting scammed by a so - called 'tour guide' in Rome. They promised a great tour of all the historical sites but instead took people to overpriced souvenir shops where they got a cut from the sales. It was a total waste of money and time.

One horror story is getting seriously ill in a foreign country with no access to proper medical care. I knew a guy who got food poisoning in a remote area of Thailand. The local hospital was ill - equipped, and he had to wait for hours just to see a doctor. It was a nightmare as he didn't speak the local language well and had trouble communicating his symptoms.

There was a case where a couple booked a cruise via Costco Travel. During the cruise, they faced issues with the food quality. It was not up to the standard that was promised. Also, some of the excursions they booked through Costco Travel were mismanaged. For example, the transportation to one of the excursions was late, and they almost missed the activity. They had to constantly complain to Costco Travel to get some sort of compensation.

One family travel horror story is when a family planned a beach vacation. They got to the hotel only to find out it was overbooked. They were sent to a different, much shabbier place miles away from the beach. Another is when a family's flight got severely delayed during a long - haul trip. The kids were cranky, and they missed their connecting flight, which led to a whole day of waiting in the airport.

There was a traveler who got sick during a trip overseas. The local medical bills were very high. The travel insurance was supposed to cover the medical expenses. But when the claim was made, the insurance company claimed that the pre - existing condition clause applied even though the traveler had no known pre - existing conditions. They fought for months but still had to pay a large portion of the bill out of pocket.
