Why Morocco

Why Portuguese travellers love Morocco.

Portuguese travellers come to Morocco for the contrast and the closeness: imperial cities, the Sahara, the Atlas mountains and the Atlantic coast, all in one welcoming country where a private trip turns a long-held dream into an easy, well-run reality.

Getting there

Flights from Portugal

Lisbon and Porto reach Marrakech and Casablanca in about 1.5–2 hours, with Royal Air Maroc, TAP and Ryanair; Casablanca is also a handy hub onward.

Best arrival airports: Marrakech (RAK), Casablanca (CMN). We meet every guest in arrivals and drive you door to door — see airport transfers.

Do you need a visa?

As an EU/Schengen passport holder you enter Morocco visa-free for up to 90 days. No advance visa is needed for tourism — a passport valid for the duration of your stay is enough, though six months' validity is the safe standard.

Time difference

Morocco shares Portugal's standard time (UTC+0), so there is effectively no jet lag to adjust to. If Portugal uses summer time, Morocco is an hour behind in summer.

When to go

The best time to visit.

March–May and September–November are ideal across most of Morocco — warm days, cool evenings, and the best light for the medinas, coast and desert. The Sahara is best October–April; the Atlas peaks hold snow into spring.
