Local Tips
The city is very walkable, and prices are negotiable in the medina's souks. Try local specialties like amlou and buy silver directly from workshops for quality and better prices.

Tiznit is generally safe, but petty theft can occur around crowded markets. Avoid deserted outer areas after dark, and beware of overly persistent touts offering tours or jewelry.
