Morocco Travel Advice for UK travellers
We stay well-informed of the latest travel regulations to Morocco and follow the advice of the British Foreign Office. Safety of our travellers is paramount and we recommend that you check the latest travel updates from the FCO before you fly.
Flying to Morocco from the UK:
A direct flight from London to Morocco takes little under 4 hours. Marrakech is the starting point for the majority of our tours and British Airways offers direct flights from London. Price-conscious travellers can also consider easyJet who fly direct to Marrakech from London as well as Manchester. If you don't mind a short transit, a number of international carriers fly the route including Iberia via Madrid though if you book well enough in advance, prices are only marginally cheaper than direct flights. We have a full ATOL licence (ATOL 6109) so please let us know if you need assistance booking your flight to Morocco.
