French retirees buy motorhomes to winter in Morocco

Norwegian traveler Yasin Buras, who spent 160 days in Africa last winter, is organizing a four-week guided tour for 10 motorhomes in Morocco. Departing from the Malaga area on December 28, the 2,000–3,000 km route will pass through the Atlas Mountains, the Sahara and coastal towns to Agadir. Buras provides assistance with the route, tickets, visas, customs, currency exchange and local SIM cards. Two crews will depart from Norway on November 15. Participants who finish after four weeks will be guided back to the ferry to Spain; others will continue independently. At Caravan Xpo, plans were announced to repeat the trip next year.
