Hi Manfred, Hallo Liste
Iīve been down last april (one week
Ceuta-Atlas-Sahara-Atlas-Marrakech-Tanger). Thereīs a ferry from Sete,
France (Cote), to Tanger. It is payable. Ask at the ADAC. We preferred
the trip through spain. You get the feelinī that you are drivinī into
the summer, it becomes green and warm. But you need at least one day
more than going by ferry. Using the spanish highways is also very
expensive.
>From South Spain (Algeciras) there are many ferrys to Tanger and Ceuta,
you could buy the tickets down there. In Ceuta fuel is very cheap.
Be careful at the border, do not buy any registration sheets from
anyone. At the border you will get them from the officials (I think for
free)! The non official people at the border seem to be very nice, but
be careful, do not go with them. Our "helper" was very nice, he took us
to some kind of hotel and showed us the city of Tetouan, it was
interesting, sure, but in the end it was very expensive (after
discussing about an hour we had to pay about 500 Dh and 2000 Pts). So
look for a hotel on your own, it is not expensive at all.
If you go through the Atlas (I think you will) you may need some warm
clothes, it may be cold, stormy and rainy. But few kilometres to the
South itīs getting much warmer....
I could write many pages more, but I think that is not intersting for
everybody...
So if you want more information (routes, hotels,..) just email.

Happy Holidays

Thomas
