Marrakech 14-Day Tours and Trips

Our explore leader was very well informed and really went far out of his way to help us when we needed it. Rabia is a good hearted and humble guy who tolerated all our chattiness and answered all our questions well. All the individual tour guides in different cities were truly excellent, well informed and hospitable. Our bus driver Ahraf was also quick to help us in every way he could and always had a smile on his face, navigating tight turns and long journeys so well we regularly applauded him for his good work. The itinerary was ideal, yes some days in the desert and mountains involved long journeys and dusty towns (with “four star” hotels occasionally not quite living up to that standard) but that is to be expected when you go further into the country and away from the hustle and bustle of the city. It’s part of the charm and variety the tour provided, I genuinely believe this tour couldn’t have offered a more authentic and diverse experience of Morocco, from Essaouira’s artsy coastal scene to the incredible views from the high atlas mountain hikes to film studios and of course the incredible 8th century Fez medina. This tour ticked all my boxes for culture, nature, architecture, history and exploration. I left morocco feeling like i’d seen all I had wanted to see, in fact the last day in marrakesh almost felt superfluous as we’d already seen more authentic and less touristy things throughout the country. All in all I highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in going to Morocco, I think it is the best tour of the country on offer.

Highly recommend this trip. A really varied trip showing the best that Morocco has to offer. Marrakech is very manic and a bit 'in your face' but thanks to an excellent tour leader and local guide the group were able to find our way to such hidden gems as the Majorelle Gardens (Yves St Laurent's former gardens) and the 'Secret' Garden. The trip up to the Atlas Mountains and stay in Douar Samra was nothing short of magical, I got to stay in the Tree House while others stayed in the very unusual and individual rooms in the house or annex. Meals were a delight thanks to the marvellous cooking of Rashida the resident cook and the atmospheric use of candles (there is no electricity in the main house) and traditional low level seating and tables. Your luggage is transported the final distance by donkey and there are also ducks and all vegetables are grown in the Douar's vegetable garden. Fabulous views and sunsets and great walking in the mountains. However the gem is absolutely Essaouira. I had never heard of this place before but it is the most delightful and fascinating seaside town. Again great orientation tour from local guide Rashida and plenty of time to enjoy the shopping, sweeping sandy beach, bars, restaurants and busy exciting fishing harbour. Our leader, Abdul, was very informative and accommodating and great fun. Morocco is well worth a visit and I will be back!

This was an amazing adventure and a great way to see as much of the country as possible, experience the culture, learn about the history, and meet the friendly locals. We had a great tour leader and driver and stayed in some authentic accommodation sites from an auberge in Merzouga, a bedouin camp in the Sahara Desert, a kasbah in the High Atlas Mountains and a riad in Essaouira.

I loved this trip and the people I went with. We had many shared experiences and the support from each other was great. The people and places we visited were all interesting and beautiful. I felt we saw the ?Highlights of Morocco?.

Ajit Singh Panwar and Najib were excellent guides, well informed and willing shared cultural information. Sadly the first two days in Madrid were very confusing, particularly the visit to the Sports stadium. It would have been useful to explain how long we had and then meet at the appointed location. It was impossible to try and follow Ana. Due to the rush to keep up I lost my expensive Apple Watch as I couldnt return it to my wrist return passport to my person once I had gone through security. It feel out of my bag someone picked it up. we In Madrid It was very confusing sorting the different groups at the hotel. Perhaps different language groups could meet a staggered times. Once on our bus Ajib was very good. I particularly enjoyed our days in Morocco. Najib was an excellent guide, personable, well informed and willing shared his love of his country. Those flying in from Australia or New Zealand really need an extra day tomcod with the jet lag. Alahamlba local guide was excellent. Perhaps a guided tour in Seville, particularly for the visit to the Roman amphitheatre would have been great.

Great trip. Our guide Mandi, and our driver Sala, were excellent. Helpful and friendly, and Sala was a very responsible driver. Problems were that the aisles in the bus were very narrow, and we had problems with the seat belts which were stiff and difficult to manage. And the Altas film tour was a complete waste of time with a disinterested guide.
