Which one, honestly
Spain leads on food, the sea and getting around. Morocco leads on value for money.
A normal day costs about $145 in Spain and $80 in Morocco.

Pick by what you want
๐ช๐ธ Choose Spain if
you want cities, food and beaches in the same trip without choosing between them.
๐ฒ๐ฆ Choose Morocco if
you want somewhere that feels genuinely far away on a three hour flight from Europe, with mountains, desert and old cities in one trip.
