Our wishes, possibilities and real situations just keep changing. We are beginning to realize that 7 or 8 days is very little to experience Morocco. We do want to see too much in too little time, but we also don't want to spend our whole week just in one city. Combining the two together is tough work.We are now almost decided we do want to include a trip to the Sahara desert while staying in Marrakech, but we cannot afford more than 2 days to do that. Including the desert means cutting out some of the cities we were first planning to visit.
So our rough itinerary now looks like this:
04.09. - start from Monfalcone (Italy), train to Milan. Overnight on airport.
05.09. - Flight Milan - Madrid - Marrakech. Landing Marrakech airport, bus or taxi to medina (center), find hotel. Overnight.
06.09. - Marrakech. Overnight.
07.09. - trip to the desert (from Marrakech via Zagora to Erg Chigaga)
08.09. - return from the desert to Marakech. Overnight.
09.09. - Marakech, afternoon going to Essaouira. Overnight.
10.09. - Essaouira (night journey to Fes).
11.09. - Fes. Overnight.
12.09. - Fes. Night travel to Tangier.
13.09. - ferry to Spain (Algeciras), travel to Portugal (Lagos).
Mitja has given me a spare day to include somewhere along the way. I may use it to recover from the busy schedule somewhere in Essaouira or Fez or just to have a spare day if we need it.
I think after a trip of this kind (wait till you see the Portugal itinerary!) we'll need a month free to recover :)
