 is that man Bin laden?? by jlvillalba I went by boat from my country, spain, daily ferries conect the coast of algeciras, Malaga and Almeria with Ceuta and Melilla (Spain) and Tanger and Nador (Morocco). It is the best option, because you can process your passport inside the boat. Uncorfortable, you have to be like a Rockefeller, ready to negotiate the price with the taxi driver everytime. NO TAXIMETER!!. They will try to charge you depending of your nationality, and..probably more than a reasonable price.. The best option is rent a car for getting around Leave a Comment Theme: Ship/Boat

by nicks28 We spent the night at the youth hostel in Gibraltar I only had a sheet-sleeping bag, no sleeping bag. I was freezing all night. This was mainly due to the windows and the doors, which were open all night long. We set off for the tourist information. The return flights from morocco to Gibraltar were too expensive. Andy booked return flights from Gibraltar to shorten his stay (something about working for a living). Having packed our bikes we raced around the bay to the Spanish port to catch a ferry to Tangier. We bought tickets with only 10 minutes to go. There was a serious language barrier. We were turned back at the ferry because we had not paid for the bikes. We returned to pay, we were told that this was not needed, and should carry the bikes on through the passenger terminal. Unfortunately, we were recognized and caught out by exchanges over the radio. We had to pay, and we boarded very nearly the last people. After sitting on the ferry sometime we found out that the ferry departs at noon Moroccan time not Spanish time, so we had an hour to spare after all. We met Mr Chile, who read the book, our book, and went. It was 46km to Kes. The hills on the road to Kes were really quite breath taking. The minor roads we were travelling on were littered with villages just off the road. As it became later in the day it became darker. Eventually, we were travelling in the pitch black. We had no light on the bikes; neither had the people walking down the road in the opposite direction lights either. How far they had to walk was anyone's guess. We arrived in Kes down the steep gradient in pitch black. It was extremely late in the evening; our average speed had slowed to somewhere in the region of 10km per hour. As we rode along the undulating road, we entered into a succession of hot and cold pockets of air. The skies were clear, there were many stars in the sky, and in particular they are three vertical stars in the North East/East that were prominent on the horizon. Where was Patrick?

by Aragina We went by Aircraft from Gatwick to Tangier, but you can also get a ship form Gibralter. Oh bus or car, we hired a jeep and it was cheap.the pic is the Ave King Hussain V taken from the jeep. Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home

If you want to experiment the desert's track, 2 possibilities: 1- rent or charter an expensive, heavy all-weel-drive 2- rend a small Renault 4L. It is high on wheels, and so light you can push it or even lift it if you get in trouble... We took the second solution and we often stopped to help those who chosed the first...

Took the ferry from Malaga to Tangier, and a train to Fez. Actually, I remember the trains being cleaner than the ones in Spain. When I left Morocco, European harvesting was fast approaching. North Africans do a lot of the agricultural harvesting in Europe and the Ferry station in Tangier was packed wall to wall with people heading the same way. Thankfully, I bumped into a French girl who was quite familiar with the procedure to get through the masses quickly (that procedure being to pay off the right guy). My suggestion to you is to stay away from the Tangier ferry at this time of year (September, I believe). Taxi's and Buses - the Moroccan does NOT stand in a line though. When the taxi or bus door opens, it's every man for himself, be prepared. Also took a hair raising ride through the mountains in a private car with a couple locals - Leave a Comment Theme: Train

by SirRichard PLANE The most common way to enter Morocco is by plane, to the cities of Rabat, Casablanca or Marrakesh mainly. But you can also enter by ferry from the south of Spain. For ferries to Morocco, you can take them from Algeciras to Ceuta, or from Tarifa to Tanger. Click here for timetables and reservations. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

Casablanca is the airport you probably gonna arrive to with any international flights. To get to other places from there, you can take a plane, train depending on where you go. Trains or cabs are the best options to reach Rabat. To go to Marrakesh, the plane option is good if you are still at the airport and dont leave it to go to Casa or Rabat. Otherwise the train trip is just as good. The trip to Marrakesh is longer than the flight but since you dont have to waste time getting to the airport and for check-in , it may be just as worth. And you get to see a little bit of the countryside. Leave a Comment Theme: Train
