    the drones are legal in Morocco my friend and you can fly them around the country easily. but You just need a permit and you can take it at the airport .... no problem next time the video is great

      I beg to differ. I tried for weeks and weeks to get a permit and there was nobody responding to enquiries. I use the drone all over the world and it definitely isn’t easy to sort in Morocco.

      the quality of tape water in Morocco really went down hill these past 10 years, and even more these past 3 years with the worst drought the country saw in 50years, nowadays even Moroccans only drink botteled water (depends on the regions, some places still have nice water, others not so lucky and gets water from far away dams or desalination plants of sea water )

    Back luck with the illness mate, I went to Morocco in November and very nearly died of dysentery! Don't drink the tap water and pick your food wisely. If you have a bottle which has good filters you can sometimes get away with it

      It's more than 12 million tourists who visit Morocco + the 35 million who live there, and we would have known it, if people die of dysentery because of tap water... We are not at the ( flint - Michigan ) hhhhh
      I am 53 years old, my parents are over 80 years old, and we have never had any health concerns related to tap water.. This propaganda has been broadcast for years by Mineral Water companies in Morocco and around the world whole, has been scientifically exposed several times .. But if you even opt for bottled water, well, good for you and for the already well-filled pockets of some.
      thanks for sharing your video ( Cycling366 ) & I'm glad, for you that you have recovered. |

    Welcome to Morocco For information, you can obtain a drone photography license through a press card that you can get easily As a journalist on social media
    Or the other solution is to use it without any authorities, which is common, but if you are arrested, only the drone will be seized, there are no difficulties or anything else, and often only the scenes are scanned and the drone is returned to its owner because there are military bases A secret that Morocco does not wish to reveal

    Helllo , just as a note that you should never drink tap water in another foreigner country even if the local drink it and have no problems , but you as foreigner probably you will get sick from bacteria it has that can be new to your body immune system , hope the next time will be better :D

    The sign did not say the drones were illegal you just needed to declare them at the airport, the same applies here in the USA. It’s a National security thing.

    • @Cycling366
      @Cycling366  Год назад

      You need a permit to fly one in Morocco, which is virtually impossible to obtain. If you don’t have one, it’s confiscated so it’s not like the US at all!
