  2. Keep some cash on hand as many smaller shops, taxis, and medina vendors do not accept mobile payments or cards.
  3. Download offline maps and translation packs before arriving, as Wi-Fi can be slow in riads and remote areas.
  4. Use ride-hailing apps in cities but agree on a price before getting into unofficial taxis, especially at night.
