Affiliate Disclosure
The price you pay is set by the partner and is not affected by the click coming from us. We do not hold inventory, we do not run tours, and we do not vet individual listings. The list below is exhaustive: these are the partners we work with.
1. The plain version
When you click "Check rates on Booking.com" or "Compare GetYourGuide tours" anywhere on Morocco.so or the journal at morocco.so/blog, you leave our site and land on the partner. If you book something during that session (or within the partner's cookie window, typically 30 to 90 days), the partner pays Morocco.so a commission. This commission is paid out of the partner's margin, not added to your price. The cost is identical to what you would pay if you typed the partner's URL directly into your browser.

3. What this changes about our recommendations
The commission is paid on the same percentage regardless of which Booking.com riad you pick, which GetYourGuide tour you book, which Skyscanner result you click. We do not get more for sending you to a $400 a night hotel than a $70 a night riad. We have no incentive to push you upmarket, and no incentive to push specific partners over others within the same category.
What we are incentivised to do: write content people actually use, send well-informed clicks that convert at the partner. A bad recommendation that pushes a thin riad gets bad reviews on Booking.com, fewer bookings, less commission. Aligned incentives, mostly.
4. What we do not promise (and why)
- We do not vet inventory in person. A "vetted" badge on a travel site usually means the writer once stayed there in 2017 for a press trip. We have not stayed in 1,500 Marrakech riads. Where we make recommendations, they are based on partner data (review counts, recency, rating, owner response patterns) and our own travel.
- We do not guarantee free cancellation. Whether a stay or tour is refundable is set by the partner at checkout. We surface the cancellation policy in our writing where relevant, but it is the partner's term, not ours.
- We do not guarantee best price. We do not run a price-match programme. Booking.com may be cheaper in one search, Hotels.com cheaper in another. The two-search habit (Morocco.so to find what to book, plus one direct check at the partner's own site) is what we recommend.
- We do not provide booking support. If your booking has a problem, you call the partner. We can not refund anything, change anything, or escalate anything. The partner's customer support contact appears on their booking confirmation.
5. How we pick what to feature
Within each service we list the partners with the best Morocco-specific coverage. Some categories have one obvious winner (Airalo for eSIM, DiscoverCars for car rental). Others have two or three roughly equivalent options (stays, tours) and we link to both so you can compare. The journal articles surface specific named items (a specific Mouassine riad, a specific Sahara route) when they cross the bar of recency, review depth and owner responsiveness. The bar is documented in each article so you can apply it yourself.
6. Updates to this disclosure
When we add a new partner category (for example a transport service or a co-working membership), we update this page within a week. The "last updated" date at the top is the authoritative version date.
