Spain & Morocco by private tour

This 15-day tour connects Spain and Morocco as a single private journey — no group buses, no fixed schedules, no compromise between different travellers’ interests. The circuit begins in Casablanca or Marrakech and crosses to Spain via the Tarifa-Tangier ferry or the Algeciras-Ceuta crossing, then routes through Andalusia (Granada, Seville, Cordoba) before returning south through Tangier, Chefchaouen, Fes and the Sahara to Marrakech.

Spain and Morocco are the same civilisation seen from both sides of the Strait of Gibraltar. The Alhambra in Granada and the Medersa Bou Inania in Fes were built by the same Moorish craftsmen using the same materials — cedarwood, zellige tile, carved stucco — centuries apart. Walking through both in the same two-week journey makes the historical connection visceral rather than abstract.

The 15-day format allows genuine depth in both countries: three nights in Morocco’s north (Tangier, Chefchaouen, Fes), the full Atlantic coast, two nights in the Sahara, and a complete Andalusia circuit. All accommodation, daily breakfast and dinner, ferry crossing, and private vehicle throughout are included. The same driver-guide handles Morocco; a Spanish-speaking guide is arranged for the Andalusia section. Build a custom itinerary or request a quote.
