    Just a minor tip: disable mobile roaming onboard a ship. I know O2 will bill you according to the flag the ship flys under, not your location. I was stung for non-eu roaming on the Portsmouth-Santander trip because it flew an Icelandic flag.

    Hi Steve and lins the last time I went to Morocco (driving)was about 40years ago, and I was driving an articulated truck, so I wasn't going to see as many sights as you, even back then you had to reverse on to the ship, no looking in your mirrors just keep your eyes on the marshal, once there in Tangier you realise how friendly your hosts are,the only thing that I found was the road side food stalls that were offering fresh food really were fresh, so fresh in fact, that the chicken was slaughtered there and then, have a Fantastic time in North Africa and enjoy the sights

    From where we live we use that route a lot. Very quiet once north of Seville. Now Bejar. If you stop there again. Above you is the ski resort of Covatilla. Cool in summer and a great drive up.. From the aires you have the Via Verde (green way, old railway line). Walk towards town takes you through a tunnel. Walk away from town is very rural. Worth doing. Enjoy.

    Very interesting to see your video and travel route. I’ve driven this many times with my family so I understand your travel talks. I was really interested where you stayed on beach so looked up your link. I have to say I was really impressed. I have driven along that route between Gibraltar and Algeciras and never knew about that beach. Looking on the map you were looking right out in bay and outside you could have seen the planes land or take off from RAF Gibraltar. They aircraft turn out in the bay as they are not allowed over Spanish airspace. You found a brilliant spot to park up. Great find very impressed.
    Always fun arriving at Algeciras port.
    I enjoyed watching your video. You look happy travelling with kids. Wife happy with kitchen facilities on board vehicle presiding food.
    I’m jealous of you travelling as I sit in uk. Worst summer on record.
    You sure made a good choice to travel where you are.
    Enjoy your driving and new experiences in Morocco.

    I think the reason you had a rough patch on the ferry was due to the bay of biscay which is renowned for being rough. I loved your video and is still the same high content from you lovely roaming Radfords. I think George should review more cabins on ferries he is down to the point.

    Wishing you all an awesome adventure in Morocco. Can't wait to learn more about how you get on, on this trip. You have mentioned Starlink several times in this vlog and then I was very surprised when I think you said... and it doesn't work in Morocco. Did I mis-hear. I travel all over Europe and stay in remote wild camping spots and I have never had problems with my mobile 4G service. I have the option to plug in an external antena if signal is poor, but think I only used it once.
    So please help educate me on what I'm missing / not understanding about why you need Starlink. Of course if you already have a video on this, please just send me the links.
    Wishing the whole family Bon Voyage !!

    • @RoamingRadfords
      @RoamingRadfords  11 месяцев назад

      The Starlink is just belt and braces. If we are out in the middle of the dessert without any reception the Starlink should still work as it connects through satellites rather than the 4g/5g network.
