🤑

As a visiting cat, I found Laayoune to be moderately priced. Some items such as clothing and souvenirs were affordable, while others like food and transportation were slightly expensive.

When shopping, make sure to haggle for the best price. Eating at local street markets can save you money compared to restaurants.
