We're just back from three weeks in Morocco with a group of Land Rovers and we had an amazing time. If you do the routes in Sahara Overland, the descriptions are so good that you probably could get by without a GPS, but it was nice to have one for security.
We soon learned to camp well off the pistes to get a bit of privacy, but the locals are generally friendly anyway - except in Rissani which is a tourist trap and therefore full of touts and "guides", and Larache on the way home which turned out to be a bit of a drug den!
We found the auberges so cheap and so friendly that we didn't bother camping as much as we'd planned to. They were cheaper than the hotels, and surprisingly, generally of a better standard.
