Hi Vicky,

Your plan for 21st Sept to 1st Oct sounds perfect. Thank you for all the research and working it out. My preference would also be for Toubkal, Marrakesh, Desert as well.

Few bits and bobs here that might be of interest. Cycling tour around Marrakech sounds fun!

Malcolm has also just booked his via expedite for £111 incl baggage. Looks like they are a bit cheaper than when I looked a few months ago which is good news. Get booking folks!

I'm currently looking at flying the same ryanair flight out on the Saturday and flying back on the Sunday with ba (boyfriend can get friends and family rate for anyone so pretty sure it won't work out any more expensive than it would with ryanair on the Saturday) . That way should be able to fit in walking and then the 3 day trip to the desert. Won't have time to see marrakesh but I could do that another time :)

If anyone is interested I have just purchased the cicerone guide 'mountaineering in the high atlas' to see what else there is to do around there. Happy to lend out.

Hi Vicki,
I sort of forgot to check the forum re Morocco. I'm still interested.
... Thanks for the research - amazing job. All sounds great. I'd be keen for a another day in the mountains but happy to stick with most. I'll try and find flight connections..
