Ferry tickets Algeciras - Tanger Med
 

Hi Folks,

Any idea what Carlos is charging at the moment? In April I paid 170€ for an open return 4x4 plus 2pax. Someone's just told me it's now 250€. Anyone know latest?

Happy trails,

Jojo

Jojo, we paid Carlos 240 Euros for 4x4 plus 2pax to Tanger Med in June.
That was the best we could get anywhere at the time.

Hi Jojo :)

Since we will be heading that way too in about 12 days, have you spoken to Carlos yet ?

Greetz,
Joey

Quoted for October, €170 return, 1 person and 4x4.

Cheers Mark

Hey guys, there is a very interesting new ferry line between Motril (Spain) and Melilla, mostly for those who come from the north.

Take a look here Naviera Armas | Naviera Armas

im heading there end of october, how do i contact Carlos?

I presume it's this place being referred to:
Viajes en algeciras. Agencias de viajes y venta de billetes.

Yes, it's "viajes Normandie" agency, but Chris, the "Map" info you posted it's not right, the agency is not located there.

It's located in Polígono Palmones, before arriving Algeciras, about 5 kms north of Algeciras:
Right location (google maps)

You can also try Camaleon Tours (I ussually buy their tickets)

+34 629 490 634

PROS AND CONS:
With Normandie you have to go to their agency to get the ticket.
With Camaleon you can get you ticket by mail, and just print it or you get a code that they send to your phone.

Hi all,

In answer to my own question, just paid Carlos 170€ for open return 4x4+2pax Alg-TangerMed.

Happy trails,

Jojo

PS 36 deg in Zagora today. Not seen many folks around this week.

"viajes Normandie"
 

On the one time I visited "viajes Normandie" (for 7 car tickets, so decent business), I had the misfortune of encountering the 'evil sister'. You may have heard of her. I was smiling and polite as always so her barrage came as a hell of a shock. Needless to say I left rapidly and have never been back. Has she been taken off the scene? If so I might try again.

Just had an email from Carlos's firm, quoting € 180 for a 4x4 with 2 people.
A very nice and swift reply on my request for information via his email :clap:!

Carlos is at N 36.17926 W 5.44116 if that helps. :-)

We paid 98 euro per bike (and driver) Algeciras - Tanger Med. Open ticket. October 11.

Used the offer Carlo emailed me.
He actually met us outside his shop, even asking us if we needed to catch the ferry leaving in 2 hours !
Anyways, his wife arranged all the paperwork for us, with a smile and a free bottle of bubblies and a cake with that !
A place I would recommend using !

Afterwards had a great trip with Peter from Atlas Overland.
The car and our bodies took a beating, but the journey was ABFAB !
The score : 2 shocks, 1 radiator, 1 waterpump, 1 tyre, and a smile on our faces that will last at least 6 months !

Follow-up
 

I've recently been dealing with Carlos and he's been great. Apparently my tickets will be pre-completed and ready for collection. Looking forward to it.

Used Carlos again, €170, 4x4 1 per and a D16! Took an online one as usual, but the one given worked fine.

Who is Carlos ?

Hello Banco.

It's a guy who owns / runs a tickets office with cheap ferry fares. See below for contact details.

Damaged Disco
 

Off topic, but where the Hell did you go to sustain that much damage?

go online
 

Recently went on line direct to Acciona for a bike and rider open return from Alegercisas to Tanger Med slow boat .Worked out at 70 euro and could roll directly to check in and recieve boarding card there ..This is contrast to 140 return Tarifa Tanger ville return I paid in Sept..

We got open ended return tickets for bike and rider for 89 euros 1 hour before sailing from one of the many ticket places on the main drag in Algerciras.

Car took a beating on Jbel Sahrhro, a very washed out mountain road. That's where the shocks went. Mind you , they'd been on the car for 7 years, and have survived 6 Africa trips.
The radiator developed a small leak, progressively getting bigger till we decided to run the engine with the radiator cap slightly loose and drop in a pill. That way we managed to keep all the water in. Since we didn't have a chance to fill the rad with proper cooling fluid, we used water. The waterpumpbearing decided it didn't like that, and on the way back shortly before Poitiers in France it gave up the ghost.
The tyre went on the same road as the shocks.
Our guide Peter told us he'd never seen that road so bad, not even when he drove it 2 weeks earlier.:crying:

This Years Prices
 

Does anyone know the ticket price for this year Algeciras - Tanger Med from Carlos please?

Thanks

Not yet, but soon I'll phone them to know the price for the Algeciras-Ceuta ferry ticket.

You can phone them: +34 956 675 653

I will be on the way back from Morocco end of June this year. I do not know which port to choose. Depart from Ceuta or Tangier-MED to Algeciras? I will travel with motorcycle and last sleeping in Morocco will be in Findq. I could be in any ferry port round 8 AM. Thank's for suggestions.

Can you please post here the information if you find out, my Spanish is very limited.


I have used both Ceuta and Tangier Med and Tangier Med is far easier and user freindly.

This morning I've been talking to Pilar (Viajes Normandie, or Carlos, as you use to refer to them) and the prices are:

For any kind of vehicle, Algeciras-Ceuta-Algeciras, for 2 p, ¡¡ 180 € !!

Proximamente

Thanks, good news bier

EDIT just noticed that was Ceuta, any news on Tangier Med? :)

Update on ticket prices:

Bought tickets a few days ago over the counter, (4th Dec 2012)
Open return ticket valid for 12months from Algeciras to either Tangier or Ceuta is euro200.00. For one motorhome (no trailer) and two adults.

Thanks for the update, I will be coming to Morocco in a week or so :D

We paid euro180 from Carlos in October but had to pay anoter 20 on the way back because the ticket wasn't correct :(

OK, thanks ;-) but... where did you get the tickets ?...

260 euro. Tarifa-Tanger-Tarifa in Nov. 2012. Patrol +very long trailer. 3 person.

The coordinates are on one of these threads if you have a dig.

Otherwise its,
Follow the A7 road form La Linea to Algeciras, 2km before Algeciras there is a commercial estate on your right (Lidl, MacDonalds and Carrefour), take this junction exit for the industrial estate (exit 112), go under the A7, pass the Macdonalds on your right, next pass the Lidle on your right, take the first exit on the roundabout by the corner of Lidl carpark, take the next first right turn, Normandie Travel is just there on the left, a few doors down.

If you get confused ask any of the two dozen motorhomes parked up in Lidl who have just done what your going to do!

New here.

Was just looking around the site and this thread as I'm planning on going to Morocco in April.

I just looked online and a flexible ticket (no departure or return set dates) for me and the motorbike was £76.

Posts all seem to be about various agents in Algeciras. Was just wondering if people had used online 'open' tickets? If so, what do you think of them?

Thanks
