Morocco was the place that I have been wanting to visit for a quite a while. When one of our friends arranged the tour with a well known tour company and invited us to join, we did not hesitate. The timing and length of the trip suited us and we embarked on this 12-day trip in the second half of March 2023. March turned out to be an excellent time to visit this beautiful country. The weather was perfect, not too hot, and we travelled to all the places by road. We had a fantastic driver, who in addition to being very efficient, was well spoken and charming!
We were pleasantly surprised to find that Moroccans love India/Indians and most of all watching Bollywood movies. On the streets we were greeted enthusiastically with shouts of “Are you from India? We love India!! Love watching Bollywood movies!!”. In Chefchaouen, as we were watching the sunset, a young vendor stopped by to have a long chat with us… he wanted to visit India and marry a Punjabi girl. He also recited a long list of Bollywood movies he had watched and liked.
The map below shows the route that we took.
As you can see in the map, we landed at the Casablanca airport and our driver was waiting to receive us, after which we got started on the trip.
We spent a good part of the day in Casablanca before heading to Rabat.
Since we visited many places, I have decided to use individual pages for each of the towns or cities or areas that we visited which are listed below. Each page has a link to the next destination.
