Morocco is an appealing destination for some Greek travelers due to its unique culture, historical cities, and stunning landscapes. With around 2 million Greeks traveling abroad annually, a portion of them may find Morocco an intriguing option to explore.
Morocco is generally considered a relatively safe destination for tourists, including those from Greece. According to the Global Peace Index, Morocco ranks 76th out of 160 countries, while Greece ranks 40th, indicating that Greece is safer overall. In terms of crime statistics, Greece has a lower murder rate at 0.9 per 100,000 people compared to Morocco's 1.9. However, female murder rates are slightly lower in Morocco at 0.5 compared to Greece's 0.6. Regarding organized crime, Morocco scores better in mafia presence (1.0 for Morocco vs. 3.0 for Greece) but has similar scores for crime networks (6.5 for both countries). While both countries face challenges, tourists from Greece can generally feel safe in Morocco, though it's advisable to stay informed and exercise standard safety precautions while traveling.
