Morocco Travel Advice for travellers from New Zealand
We keep abreast of the latest travel advice to Morocco and follow advice as set out by Safe Travel New Zealand. Safety of our travellers is paramount and we recommend that you check the latest travel updates before you fly.
Flying to Morocco from New Zealand:
Morocco is on average a 35 hour flight from New Zealand. Marrakech is the starting point for the majority of our tours and from Auckland one of the quickest flight routes is with Lufthansa with two stops made en route. It's worth considering extending your stay in Morocco to coincide with better flight connections from New Zealand as the quicker routes do not operate every day of the week. You may find that there are better flight options to Casablanca from New Zealand, in which case our Road to Casablanca tour, which starts and ends in Casablanca, may be a better choice of tour.
