We're departing Portsmouth to Santander on Friday 22nd March, return Santander to Portsmouth on Sat 6th April.
We've not done Morocco before, last trip was the Balkans, as far as Romania and Bulgaria, 16 countries altogether.
How about yourself?

If its any use...….
we are departing on morning of Wednesday 27st March 2019 to catch the ferry from Portsmouth to Bilbao. From there one half days riding to the bottom of Spain using dual carriageways and keeping to sensible speeds. We then hop over to Morocco from Algeciras via Tanger's Med.
Return to Spain on evening of Thursday 11th April and spend two days getting back up through Spain via more scenic roads and views catching the ferry on the evening of Saturday 13th and arrive back to UK on Sunday 14th April 2019. (this means if we have a problem in Morocco we can hack up through Spain in one and a bit days but still importantly catch the Spain-UK ferry)
We won't be doing anything too technical off road cos I'm taking my lump of a BMW GSA and have no desire to come back with a pile of bits! However, we will be doing some gravel roads to get off the average tourist routes and a bit of sand when we get down the Sahara.
give me a shout if you are interested.
