We will depart from Madrid early in the morning, heading south through La Mancha. Our first stop will be in Puerto Lapice, a charming Manchego village evocative of Don Quixote. We will then continue into Andalusia via Despenaperros, arriving in Granada, where lunch will be included. In the afternoon, if you have chosen the option that includes a visit to the Alhambra, we will explore the magnificent Alhambra Palace and its beautiful Generalife Gardens, both built during the Arab period, with a local guide.VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: The number of visitors allowed into the Alhambra is strictly regulated by law. To ensure your admission, tickets will be issued upon confirming your tour reservation. It's essential to provide accurate personal details (full name and passport/ID number) at the time of booking. Please be aware that ticket costs are non-refundable in case of cancellation. In rare cases where the Alhambra visit is not possible, we will instead tour the Royal Alcazar of Seville, which offers similar historical and architectural significance.

Departing from Granada, we'll traverse the Costa del Sol. Upon reaching Algeciras or Tarifa, we'll board a modern ferry to cross the Strait of Gibraltar (tickets included). Passengers will need to carry their own luggage as the bus typically does not make the crossing. Upon arrival in Morocco, we'll journey through breathtaking landscapes. Our first stop will be Asilah, a charming walled city nestled on the Atlantic coast, once a historic port and pirate stronghold, now bustling with vibrant life. There will be time for lunch before we head to Rabat. Upon arrival in Rabat, dinner will be included.

We'll go on a panoramic tour of Rabat to visit the immense Royal Palace, the Mausoleum of Mohammed V and the mighty Kasbah of the Udayas. At midday, we'll head to Casablanca, where we'll go on a short city tour with a local guide. The tour will include a visit to the exterior of one of the most important mosques in the Arab world, the magnificent Hassan II Mosque. Later, we'll go to Marrakech. After arriving at the hotel, you will be able to experience a traditional Kalesa ride up to the famous Jemaa el-Fnaa square. Dinner will be included.

Today, you will explore one of the world's most fascinating cities, the city from which Morocco takes its name. The city tour will include the strong walls, the bustling Jemaa el-Fnaa square, the Medina, the Koutoubia Mosque, and the Bahia Palace. Admission to the Bahia Palace is included.
