Why Morocco
Why travellers from British Columbia love Morocco.
Morocco rewards British Columbia travellers with everything a Canadian winter is not — warm medinas, golden desert and Atlantic light — within a single, easy time zone of home and a short connection beyond Montréal's nonstop.
Getting there
Flights from British Columbia
From Vancouver, connect via Montréal or a European hub (London, Paris, Frankfurt) into Casablanca or Marrakech. Plan on 15–17 hours including the layover.
Best arrival airports: Casablanca (CMN), then Marrakech (RAK) or Fes (FEZ). We meet every guest in arrivals and drive you door to door — see airport transfers.
Do you need a visa?
Canadian passport holders enter Morocco visa-free for stays of up to 90 days. No advance visa or e-visa is required for tourism; carry a passport valid for six months beyond arrival.
Time difference
Morocco is about 9 hours ahead of British Columbia, Canada (it stays on UTC+1 year-round), which makes for an easy, eastward adjustment.
When to go
The best time to visit.
March–May and September–November are ideal across most of Morocco — warm days, cool evenings, and the best light for the medinas, coast and desert. The Sahara is best October–April; the Atlas peaks hold snow into spring.
