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 is about 1 hour ahead of Portugal (it stays on UTC+1 year-round), which makes for an easy, eastward adjustment.

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.
