My trip manager was absolutely amazing, was able to coordinate everything and more for us. Including any excursions you may not see on existing itinerary, he was a pro at.

Our tour leader Bee (Bianca) and driver Ryaan were both excellent. The itinerary was varied and well paced and accommodation excellent right up to the last night when unfortunately the accommodation 'Beyond Cui Bono' felt very run down by comparison which was a shame, as otherwise the trip would get a 5 star review from me!

A very late review from an excellent trip. Aged 53 I have to say this has been one of the best holidays and travel experiences I have been fortunate enough to go on. Wife and son (11yrs) also loved it. The accommodation is what you expect from a proper travel experience. The culture naturally very welcoming. Lead Guide - totally outstanding. Next level customer care, great with all families, explained everything with passion and depth of knowledge. Never have we had that level of commitment, positivity and enthusiasm, day in and day out. The drivers are highly experienced, very charming and helpful. It has been a superb way to show a different side of life, culture and reality to our 11 year old. The experienced was soooo good, I have not stopped bleating about it to friends. Really embrace what the travel adventure is, practice some Arabic and you will come back with the same buzz that we did, with a hint of sadness as it was all over !! We have since booked another holiday with Explore. Extra that we wished we added, potentially an extra day and night in or around Morocco. One of the lovely families we joined on the adventure (4 families in total) went on and stayed at a beach location after with water park, one went on for extra cookery course and others for other adventures. We will return to Morocco for a long weekend. Easy destination to get to. I could go on, but all other reviews will cover similar points. Highly recommended. Our guide, Omar, truly outstanding. An absolute credit to Explore.
