Africa Local culture Tour Reviews
Genuine reviews from travelers on Local culture Africa tours
Anonymous | Traveled in May
Our tour leader, Hassan, was excellent. He anticipated our needs. He also responded to occasion unrealistic requests by clients calmly and with diplomacy. He is a charming, funny, knowledgeable, professional tour leader.
Kevin S. | Traveled in May
The tour manager, Mohamed, was exceptional. Very informative, engaging, and entertaining. I particularly enjoyed the camping in the Sahara, even with the dust storm! The accommodations were much better than I expected, where a "Moroccan 5 star" was as good as any "5 star" in the US. I also liked having a bus for transport that gave us room to spread out and sit where we liked. Also, the food was excellent, varied, and delicious (though I did get a little tired of tagine by the end). Well done overall.
Carla C. | Traveled in May
Our guide, Mohammed, added a great deal to our experience by his knowledge and experience in Morocco. His ability to communicate everything about the history, culture people the farmland in the south versus the cities in the north and everything else gave us an extensive understanding of Morocco. Most everyone would say their favorite part was being in the desert. The camp was extraordinary and riding a camel is not something you can do just anywhere. While we enjoyed every part of the trip, the desert was the most unique.
Melanie G. | Traveled in May
Camping and riding camels in the Sahara, exploring the medians, staying in the elegant riads. The tour manager was excellent, a great ambassador for Morocco! All the local guides were great too. A very immersive experience.
Anonymous | Traveled in April
It was a lovely trip, with a very varied itinerary and beautiful scenery. Our tour leader had extensive knowledge, and was very informative and helpful. We also had some really good local guides. There were some long drives, but we had plenty of stops, a great driver and a comfortable minibus. It was great to see the changing scenery, so I didn't find it a problem. The accommodation was mostly really good, several with a traditional design, and always very clean. I wasn't particularly looking forward to camping in the desert, but the camps were so much more comfortable than I had anticipated, and they turned out to be great experiences.
Lisa T. | Traveled in April
This was a perfect trip to explore all of Morocco! The tour guide was top notch and shared his vast knowledge and love of his beautiful country in a way that was engaging and informative without seeming overly scholarly. I would highly recommend this adventure!
