Paris - Spain Itinerary
 
Hi all,

I think I most of my itinerary is forming. After we leave Seville, it's kind of see places as we come across. We really want to go to Tangiers for the day even though we had past forums saying don't was out time. I really not sure about how to get Ronda once we get to the Costa del Sol area. Any suggestions? Thanks.

It all looks very do-able and not too rushed. I would say that as you have previously been advised, Tangier is a waste of a day. It's dirty, pushy and not representative of Morocco.

Ronda is accessible by road, but I'd consider staying not in Tarifa but nearer to Marbella, maybe Estepona or Sotogrande. You can still do Gibraltar from there and then Ronda before you head to Malaga.

You can get to Rhonda via Marbella, when you hit Marbella, head directly inland. I didn't drive there myself so my directions are pretty weak but that should be enough to get you going. Good luck and have fun!

think sleazy border town... I wold not go to Tangiers s it does not do justice to an otherwise mysteriously beautiful country You do not have time to enjoy Morocco, only to later say you wish you hadn't even gone there. Plenty of gorgeous small towns on Spanish side to still enjoy.

All great advice. I think I'll make may to Ronda via Marbella. Thanks all you're all great.

A busy 16 days!

I'd add at least one more day to Paris and drop Gib and the day trip to Morocco. Save it for another adventure when you can actually enjoy a few days in Morocco, not just a quick side trip to Tangiers.
