Yes, 9 days is generally enough to visit the main highlights of Morocco. Still, the duration ultimately depends on your preferences and the specific places you wish to visit.
Morocco can be visited all year round, but the best months to visit are generally April, May, September, and October when the weather is mild and comfortable for sightseeing and outdoor activities. However, each season offers a unique experience, so it depends on your preferences and the specific activities you plan to do during your trip.
This is a great question! We believe that comfortable travel enhances the overall experience and we strive to provide the best possible travel solutions for our guests. We use comfortable transportation options such as Toyota Prado Land Cruiser TX, Ford Tourneo Custom, and Mercedes Benz Sprinter minibus for groups of 8 people or more, and other comfortable options.
