ALL BOOKED
The whole booking process was relatively painless. An £80 flight with EasyJet (Plus £20 for an extra hold bag and £14 for a front-row seat) and then a further £108 for the return with Royal Air Maroc booked through Kayak and I was all sorted. Boujmaa promised to sort out the two-and-a-half-hour taxi from Marrakech to Moulay – an extra 60 Euro each way – and that was all my travel costs covered. In total around £300 at the last minute, which I didn’t think was too bad. Flying from Gatwick so early meant sleeping on a bench in the airport for three hours before check in, but after a quick breakfast I was all on board and slept the whole three-and-a-half hour flight until touching down in Marrakesh. I breathed a sigh of relief when a taxi driver was on hand with my name on a board once I’d cleared immigration and customs and next thing I know I’m on the road where the real adventure is about to begin.
