England to Morocco: Crossing into Africa (Part Two)

[@mantarayal]

I remember Morocco as one of the most stunningly beautiful countries I have ever been to. In different and surprising ways, depending where you are. Isn't travel the most wonderful thing. Magic experiences that transform you and re-imagine your view of the world and the glorious people and cultures that inhabit it, interspersed with borders and airports and terminals and officialdom and folk that you just do not get on with!! But it's all worth it. SO worth it.

Great to see you are back on an adventure , and making good use of the cooking facilities table and chair

[@antique350]

Great video series I really enjoy watching your adventures Make sure you get the jeep serviced they don’t respond to the lack of oil changes Have fun !

[@StephenClarke-l4s]

Freddie. As ever, very entertaining. Shout out for those magnificent terracotta pots on the terrace ! Parking on the ferry, i had the same issues Hull to The Netherlands. So tight. With a new knee, i was forced to get out from the drivers seat, on the passenger side ! Universal problems eh. Nostalgia ! I tried the same destination two up on a bike in the 70's, but so much to see ran out of time to get from Spain into Africa. But that is what happens on a loose road trip i suppose. Fab reportage !!

Ham from a Cow Freddie? DOH!!!!😂

Perhaps the cow identified as a pig.

I have stayed in caceres in the snow it’s so picturesque. We were invited there after meeting 2 Spanish families on holiday in the South. So historic and beautiful. If a train goes past where you are it may be the Ave doing 200 mph😂

Lovely video, lovely couple.

[@ostevoostevo1592]

Love your videos Freddie, specially the travel ones.

Lovin this road trip I get to go don't have to drive or wake up and pack and go go go...I liked seeing my Parents old 1964 Fleetwood caddy at 6:15 in...That was the car all 10 meters of it and at least four or five cow legs of black leather inside... I learned to drive on the road , I'd already learned to drive on the dirt roads of a small calif desert town with demo derby cars "stolen" from the Saugus speedway track...Thanks you 2

[@abbo1431]

😎🙌 nice one guys, have fun !🤟

[@JamesReilly-en4di]

Pressure only for tires Freddie, keep smiling, you make brilliant videos, enjoy North Africa 😊

[@FreddieDobbs]

Annoyingly, I have noticed that the front left tyre is very close to the limit so I may have to switch the spare around. Glad you enjoy the vids!:)

[@coldfrog6542]

Another fun video and great to see what other countries look like. Thanks team

[@luisjromero]

I know that area...the little town where this beautiful video begins is called Torrejoncillo. Greetings 🇪🇸

Been to Tangiers and then Asilah when I lived in Gibraltar. Loved Morocco. 😎

That’s incredibly convenient from Gibraltar!

Did you spot the crocodile!? 🐊

[@oliverbull1622]

Spotted it

[@davidwilliams5942]

Behind the drainpipe by the window 😊

Monika has a COLOSSAL reptile phobia but didn’t spot this until she edited the video. If she’d have seen this while filming, she’d 100% have dropped her phone!

Hey Fred's good mission. Be sure to re-seal those ration packs whilst waiting for them to cook. Oh and btw, the agriculture you refer too beside the train track was a vineyard! Enjoy

[@LaraKenway]

Thank you for your hard work and dedication. Your videos are always a joy to watch.🐻👒🦅

Living the dream, love your videos always much appreciated ❤❤ hi from Holland Freddie and Monika ❤❤ ( i love that song " Trouble stay away from my home ")

Delighted you enjoyed it and sending you all my best👋🇳🇱

[@Leef3477]

Great video Freddie! I enjoy seeing even the parts if these videos that don’t go well, for example the rude french man a from a while back. And the boat guy who stormed off. We are all human and we all get frustrated and angry. And it is important to know that that is okay. (The Mr Rogers film with tom hanks actually covered this a little as well.

[@FreddieDobbs]

Thanks Lee- I will find this film online and watch it

[@specialcircs]

Nice, relaxing video, thanks Freddie. BTW where is your UK sticker on your car? Naughty naughty!

[@FreddieDobbs]

Really glad you enjoyed it, thank you🙌🏻 Ah, I’ll try and find a UK sticker or magnet

[@blacksquirrel4008]

I wondered about that, thought perhaps they had changed the rules to allow ensigns.

[@ralphturner3798]

Hi Freddy. I like your videos. And I think of you as a son or grandson. [ I'm almost 82 years old. ]

[@RobertMackenzie-yn8ig]

Great video , good cat spotting by Monika . As a matter of interest is petrol cheap in Morroco

[@FreddieDobbs]

Really glad you enjoyed it! Petrol seems to be as close as makes no difference the same as the UK

[@biker_dale]

I've not been to Morocco for years, have a great time. I don't think I'd risk the ferry last minute later in the year 😀I love going out of season though, it's so much more relaxed.

[@FreddieDobbs]

Ah interesting, Dale- I was curious if it may get fully booked in peak season (whenever that is?)

[@69spook]

Freddie, the king of cool, lost his cool parking on the ferry ...... 😮

[@lensmann100]

You want to try taking your bike on the IOM ferry during the TT - that's crowded!

[@rickallen6378]

Very nice video, try some mint tea while in Morocco.

[@FreddieDobbs]

Mint tea’s become a twice daily thing for us- love it!

[@edmundcongo8435]

Hi Freddie Throughly enjoying it. Perhaps you could share information about the paperwork involved for taking the car to Morocco. How and where can you insure the car and the costs please? Cheers

The cats are more interesting to watch good spotting Monika

Looking forward to this trip Freddie. Heading to Morocco in April having not been there for many years (I remember the piste between Merzouga and Mhamid being an epic and a good one for your Jeep no problems) . What are you using for navigation ? Waze ?google maps ? Did you get a sim at the border ? Thanks in advance..

[@FreddieDobbs]

We’re just using Google Maps for satnav and my biggest recommendation- get Airalo. It’s a digital SIM card (all done through the Airalo app). Total game changer!

[@johnnythefox9830]

Lovely 😃👍

Hi Freddie, loving the channel. Who does the Irish Passport belong to? I'm assuming it's yours? Great to see and makes travelling a lot easier in Europe for you.

[@110adventures7]

Another great video, you looked very relaxed and chilled, I bet it wasn't like that lol. Did you not have to temporarily import your vehicle into the country ? On the three occasions I've been we had to get our passports stamped with a number that was tied to our vehicle log book.

[@FreddieDobbs]

Good question- I was given a little piece of paper at passport control that I think I need to show when leaving Morocco, but nothing more than that

[@gusgormley9651]

It actually identifies as a Fiat Panda and you are liable for Mr Starmer giving you 3 years inside for not addressing it as such. .-)

[@Brogster9799]

Just a note Freddie, did you tell your insurance company that you were going to Morocco? And there is no reciprocal health insurance with UK, so you need separate health insurance. Sorry to be boring. Enjoy

[@FreddieDobbs]

I didn’t look into health insurance, so unfortunately don’t know about this

[@milabaigar]

Jamon , leg of cow !! Omg 😫

[@dbharrold]

Back in the 70s before European open borders they used to check passports on the ferry. I wish they would do it again to stop the queues when I land at Dieppe

the borders thing could be due to how Morocco/spain border is considered one of the main point from wish illegal weed enters Europe, and also where most hard drugs and unwashed curency enters Morocco.

You're a grown Adult, so posing looking down next to a Car or Motorbike on your thumbnails is just so pretentious! Teens pose like that on Tik Tok because some dumb photographer says it looks more mysteries. I think you should stop doing it as an adult.

Just a quick question, why do you never use a GB sticker on your Jeep 🤔 Union Flag on the back isn’t the same as you can see them on lots of travellers vehicles with many more to show where they’ve been, not where they’re from 🇬🇧🫣
