November 27 to December 9 2017,
Mediterranean Cruise Included Morocco and Funchal
Spent two days pre cruise doing our own thing, stayed at the Hotel Gaudí which you can walk from to the Christopher Columbus statue and get the cruise port bus for two fifty euro and will take you directly to your ship.
Bought the Yellow Bus hop on hop off on the dockside, went to the little fishing village of Camara des Lobos and this bus ticket also includes a smaller bus at this village to take you up to the top of 5he mountain for spectacular views. Tip get off the ship early, the first yellow bus leaves at 9.10 and at Camara des Lobos get right on the shuttle bus, you will beat all the crowds and then come back to Camara to look around and have lunch.
Seems all the local guides and taxis want to rip you off, we walked from the ship to the Mosque about half an hour. We also bought a tour to Rabat which was well worth it.
