Our trips are all done in comfortable private bus transportion, which gives everyone a chance to better get to know one another.  For the Morocco trips we also take a ferry to cross the Strait of Gibraltar.

Yes, however our staff is here to help you and can advice in finding transportation to these cities.  In the case that you are a group of people or more, we can also organize the transportation for you.

All of our trips have multiple departure cities that include transportation to and from those cities.  However, if you don´t live in any of those cities and it is easier to simply meet us at the hotel, we do offer that option for the Portugal Paradise Weekend.

FOR THE PORTUGAL PARADISE WEEKEND:

Most students fly to Sevilla or Málaga to join the trips.
But for the Portugal trip you can also look at flights into Faro Portugal and take a bus to the hotel in Albufeira and MEET THE GROUP THERE if that works better for you. (For the Hotel address wrote to info@welovespain.org)
You can meet us there Friday from 12 PM – 2 PM
(for other times please check first at info@welovespain.org)

The accommodation on our trips are always in very nice 3 or 4 star hotels or apartment hotels or pensions, where you can fully relax and enjoy your trip.

After purchasing a trip, you will receive a email with a link that will take you to our online form where you will have to fill out basic information about yourself needed for the trip. In addition there will be a question asking about your rooming preferences, where you can add the names of the people you want a room with.

After purchasing a trip, you will receive a email with a link that will take you to our online form where you will have to fill out basic information about yourself needed for the trip.  In addition there will be a question asking about your rooming preferences.  If you are traveling alone you have the option of booking a single room for an additional fee, or you can select the option “Find me a roommate,” in which we will try to room you with someone else of the same gender who is also traveling alone.  While we will do our best, this option is not always guaranteed.  In the case that there is no one that we can room you with, you will have to book a single room.

Yes, usually on almost every trip we have people traveling alone.   It is very normal. On the trips you will meet plenty of new people.

You may bring whatever size suitcase or travel bag that you like.  There are no luggage restrictions.  You will never have to carry your luggage around with you.  On trips where we switch hotels, your luggage will always be safely kept on the bus with the driver, so you don´t have to worry about that.

Morocco is a country very open to tourists and very safe, however, for us your safety is the most important.  For that reason our staff is highly trained and qualified in the department of safety.  During the walking tour of the marketplace in Tetuan, not only will you be accompanied by your guide and coordinator, but also the Tourism Police Department to make sure that no one is lost in the laberinth of streets and that everything goes perfectly.  In the case of emergency we have evacuation plans, full medical insurance, and contact with the Spanish embassy at all times.  Traveling with professionals is traveling safely.

You can not drink the tap water in Morocco.  There is no problem however in showering, brushing teeth, or washing your face, etc.  Just make sure not to swallow any water.

There are no restrictions on what type of clothing to wear in Morocco.   Morocco is very open and accepting to other cultures and tourists in general. It is completely accepted to wear more “Westernized” clothing such as shorts, sleevelesses, etc.  You do not need to dress extra conservatively.

Morocco is a very large country with all different climates, so depending on where you are, the weather will vary.  If you are doing a weekend trip in the North, the weather will be very similar to Southern Spain making it very temperate and mild due to its coastal location.   If you are doing one of the 5 day trips farther south, you will find the weather to be much warmer and drier.

On all of the Morocco trips it is recommended to bring comfortable walking shoes and comfortable clothing because you will be touring. On the Sahara Desert Adventure trip, bring warm clothes for the night in the desert because it can get cold.  For that trip you will also need a small overnight bag to take with you (on camel back) for the night in the desert.  If you get seasick, it is recommended bringing medicine with you for the ferry or windy roads .  Normally the hotels provide soap but not a hair dryer, shampoo nor conditioner, so bring those if you need them.  The electrical sockets are the same as European.

The official currency in Morocco is the Dirham (Dh) and the difference is 1€=11Dh.  In most places however, if you pay in  Euro they will probably charge you 1€-10Dh for conveniency.  So if you pay in Euro, your change, if given in Dirham may be returned as 1€-10 Dh.

You do not need to exchange money before the trip.  You will be able to exchange in Morocco at the hotel receptions.  However, you can pay in Euro everywhere and in Dollars in some places.

Yes, alternative meals are available in the hotels and restaurants.  You must let your guide or the restaurant manager know at the beginning of each meal.  Also, you are free to bring whatever food and drink you want on the trip.

Yes you do.  Although there is no border control between Spain and Portugal, sometimes police will do random controls so you must bring your passport (non EU citizens) or ID (Europeans only).  Also the hotel will need to make a copy of your passport, you can bring a copy or just let them do it.  

The weather in Southern Portugal is similar to Southern Spain.  It is warm usually but can be rainier and cooler due to coastal position. 

This depends on the departure city, but from Seville you get to Portugal in about two and a half hours.  

Most students fly to Sevilla or Málaga to join the trips.
But for the Portugal trip you can also look at flights into Faro Portugal and take a bus to the hotel in Albufeira and MEET THE GROUP THERE if that works better for you.

For the hotel address and contact info, please write info@welovespain.org.

You can meet us there Friday from 12 PM – 2 PM.
