Morocco 20060406-13

We booked our tickets through Ving agency. We paid 1270 €, including hotel (Tivoli, Agadir) and breakfast. During our round trip we stayed at hotels in Oukaimeden, Ouarzazate and Erg Chebbi. These accommodations were not booked in advance, however we had no problems finding hotels with available rooms.

Car hire was booked directly through Budget's website at a cost of 428 € for 6 days rental. The car was a Renault 19 with AC. We also had to pay an additional driver fee, 27 €. Both of us had visited Morocco before, so we planned for a relaxing week of birdwatching and digiscoping.

One week should be enough to find some of the target birds that we had not seen on previous trips. We opted for the Agadir area, Sous Valley, Oukaimeden in the Western High Atlas and Erg Chebbi.

We took off from Copenhagen airport 9.30 6th April and landed in Agadir 12.00 (14.00 local time). Bus transport to Hotel Tivoli and check-in. Unfortunately we chose the big scaled International Travel Maps Morocco 1:900000. This is not recommended due to many inaccuracies. Instead Michelin maps are to prefer.
