Morocco - family trip
Hi,
I am planning to go to Morocco in April with my young family (age 3 and 1 yrs) in my massive Defender 130. I am planning to get the ferry from Portsmouth to Bilboa, then travel to Algerciras and into Morocco - achieving 10 days in country before we have to make the return journey.
I have a few questions for those overland ninjas, with PhDs in Morocco:
1. Any tips for travelling with a young family in Morocco?
2. Any ideas for the route from Bilboa to Algerciras?
2. I have in mind a route following the coast to Essouira, inland to Marrakech, thenn Ouarzazate, Todra gorge, Midelt to fes and back up North to the ferry. Is this achievable in 10 days without spending huge hours in the LR? Does anyone have distances/ timings for the legs?
4. Finally and a big one for my wife: is the route OK in the event of a breakdown? as a single vehicle is there sufficient traffic that I could reasonably get some help?
If there are any Morocco veterans living in the NorthEast (near Darlington) would you fancy meeting up for a  and chat?
Cheers
Guy
