    Can this be beaten any other way. Looking to book tonight and just want to make sure it is a really good deal.

    Hi, i have been to morocco many times and i would'nt suggest a package deal....this is an extremely alot of money, why not get the ryanair or thomson flights to Agadir and then get a hotel when you are there, alot cheaper than your package as bartering is a game in morocco.....food is very cheap and you are only a two hour drive from marrakech or essoaourria which is alot nicer than agadir, there you can hire a beachfront bungalow from a local for £10 a night........and walk down to the food stalls on the local habour and grab a full seafood meal for £5........public transport is very cheap and adds to the fun of the holiday.....hope you have a good time whatever you decide to do.
