I have some concerns about long rides in the van. The detailed information lists 7-8 hours to get to Fez and says that the travel time does not include stops. If I map it, it's about 5 hours total. Can you clarify thus for me. I have a cranky knee and need to be able to straighten it out occasionally so extremely long rides are a concern. It does not effect walking just long cramped rides.

The travel time does not include stops (we allow extra time for traffic), but please rest assured the driver will make regular stops for bathroom breaks and for you to stretch your legs.

Are single rooms available, and how much is the single supplement? I could do 12 November or 29 October

We currently have 7 single rooms available and the cost of the single supplement for this trip is 839 USD.
