Flying across the Atlantic? Make the most of it. Spain and Morocco are separated by just 14 km of sea, and together they make one of the most rewarding two-week trips you can plan.
Days 1–5: Madrid and Andalusia
Land in Madrid, spend two days in the city, then take the high-speed train to Seville or Granada for the Alhambra. On day 5 head to Tarifa or Algeciras on the southern coast.
Day 6: ferry to Tangier
The ferry from Tarifa to Tangier takes about an hour. Our driver meets you at the port and your Moroccan adventure begins.
Days 7–14: Morocco from north to south
- Chefchaouen, the blue town of the Rif Mountains.
- Fes, the world's largest medieval medina, with its tanneries and madrasas.
- The Merzouga dunes: a camel ride at sunset and a night in a desert camp.
- The Todra Gorge, the Dades Valley and the kasbah of Aït Ben Haddou.
- Marrakech, with Jemaa el-Fna square, the souks and the gardens.
This is our 7-day tour from Tangier to Marrakech (from €650 per person). With more time, the 10-day tour from Tangier adds more cities.
Day 15: fly home
Fly from Marrakech to Madrid or another European hub for your connection, or hop to Casablanca and fly home nonstop with Royal Air Maroc to New York, Washington, Miami, Los Angeles, Montreal or Toronto.
Tips for combining both countries
- Book an open-jaw ticket: into Madrid, out of Marrakech or Casablanca.
- Check the entry rules for both countries with your passport (Spain is in the Schengen area).
- Pack light: ferries and medinas are easier with a medium suitcase.
