interestingly it will be a roll on roll off service that might work for us though the projected portugal service seems to have vanished

The first holiday abroad I had was to Morocco in the early 70's. Through France and Spain by coach and round Morocco in old army trucks. Camping under the stars. Fantastic time. Would love to go back. A few years ago went on a day trip to Tangier. Avoid.

I would be interested to hear more, sounds great. Are the green pins your route?

Hi, yes that was our anti-clockwise route. I’d attach some photos but changed phone soon after and forgot to save pics, great memories though.

Taken through Tangiers with armed guards, 12 year old girls in we hidden rooms tied to looms making jeans, thieves trying to go through you pockets, hoarded into back street shops to try to sell vastly over priced goods, nice place if your into that kind of thing.

Taken through Belfast, there were blokes in balaclavas with AK's everywhere, couldn't see the sky for bottles and stones been thrown, bonfires taller than houses on every corner and loads of strange bands on every street.

We just hide the 12 year old girls making our clothes in other countries so we dont have to see them!

.....but in fairness to your comment I have read that Tangiers is intimidating but it's just part of the Morrocan experience, one which I hope to experience and if Tangiers is horrible I will move on. I sewed a button into my wallet pocket for travelling Asia, just have to act accordingly to the environment I guess
 
did a trip similar to megs probably about the same time in transit vans safari camping they advised a money belt and wallet of old stuff when you in round the souks i took monopoly money still use much of the same tactics travelling now an old passport with corner cut of redundant cards and some gambian notes a wedge that looks like a hundred euros is £3:45 lol
 
We did the Tangier day trip from Tarifa.
It's cheaper if you book ferry plus guide.

Glad we did it, as we'd have just wandered the streets, being hassled.

Once it's enough though, thanks.

Diabetics were warned not too stay too long, in case they need blood products or injections, after accidents.

Sounds nothing like the place I went to. Single senior lady, had two days in Tangier, stayed at the famous Atlantic hotel before travelling south by train.

I had armed guards in Algiers. They were escorting me from Arrivals to Departures and then shoved in the back of a van with my suitcase, taken to the aircraft I had arrived on, then deported me. :ROFLMAO:
 
I really fancy a trip over to Morocco from Spain, just for a few days. We'll factor it into one of our winter Spanish trips in the next few years I think. I have never been but have read that there are campsites. If we are there a few days we can move away from the port to another town that may suit us.
