It is no surprise that Morocco is one of the most sought-after travel destinations in Africa. The main reason behind people planning family tours in Morocco is the extensive musical and artistic history, magnificent landscapes, confusing markets, changing dunes, and collapsing casbahs. By the end of the decade, Morocco expects to have welcomed more than 10 million visitors thanks to its daily direct flights from the US and its proximity to Europe.
Although traveling the entire length and width of Morocco is difficult, renting your own car and traveling at your own speed is one way to experience this fascinating intersection of sub-Saharan Africa and the Mediterranean. This is one of the great options for experiencing Morocco hiking tours at your own convenience. Although Morocco's interconnected rail and road networks are outstanding, having a car gives you the advantage of reaching locations that are frequently unreachable by train.
Along with Algeria and Tunisia, Morocco forms an eminent part of the region known as "The Maghreb" or the "area of sunset." Morocco City Tours is best experienced by land so that the journey can be savored like a great meal that has been carefully cooked over an open flame.
An economy or standard-size car is fine if you intend to stay on main, paved highways. The cost will vary depending on whether you need air conditioning, 4WD, or automatic transmission. Before you hand over any cash or offer your credit card information, make sure the automobile is in working order. You don't want to be stuck paying for a broken muffler or malfunctioning gear shift when you get back.
It is advised that you buy a reliable road map of Morocco before traveling there. It will be crucial if you try to navigate some of the bigger cities or find yourself suddenly in an area with no obvious signposts. Although the well-paved and easily navigable A3 coastal highway from Casablanca to Rabat and the A2 from Rabat to Fes will put your reaction times and driving skills to the test, keep in mind that unmarked dirt tracks, teetering donkey carts, speeding motorcyclists, and the ubiquitous Mercedes-Benz "grand taxis" will also add in the excitement and fun.
