Contiki is an amazing company and despite the fog at the top of table mountain it was great to connect with everyone on this tour and a wonderful way to enter Africa. did a great job. Thank you guys.
My trip exceeded my expectation. the only negative was my flights, I had too long a layover both ways in Frankfurt. I would have paid an additional amount for a better travel itinerary.
The tour was absolutely delightful. There was a nice balance between culture and adventure within the six days. We bartered our goods in the vibrant souks, saw historical sights, and even the blue-street charm of Chefchaouen. Hakim, our driver, was outstanding: friendly, knowledgeable, and made for a smooth and enjoyable trip. Highly recommended!
After three years of back 2 back beach vacations, I was ready for something different and Morocco was it in every way. This tour struck the perfect balance between cultural immersion, historical wonder, and breathtaking natural beauty. The itinerary flowed seamlessly taking us from the wide boulevards of Casablanca to the Roman ruins of Volubilis, the alleys of Fez and the dunes of the Sahara.
Our guide, Layla, was phenomenal. She was warm, endlessly knowledgeable, and the kind of person who anticipates questions before you even ask. She brought every stop to life, whether we were walking through the historic Medina of Fez or standing in awe before the architectural marvel of the Hassan II Mosque.
One of my personal highlights was the Todra Gorge. As someone who’s hiked canyons in Arizona and Utah, I can honestly say this was even more dramatic. It had sheer walls that glowed orange in the sun and a stillness that felt almost sacred. The camel ride to our desert camp in Merzouga was unforgettable. Watching the sun dip below the dunes, then sharing dinner and music under the stars with fellow travelers made for a night I’ll always remember. You can say it was a beautiful moment to be cherished forever.
The hotels exceeded expectations. They were clean, comfortable, and full of authentic Moroccan touches like tiled courtyards and lantern lit lounges. Sure, some days involved long drives, but the scenery made them feel like part of the adventure. We passed through ancient kasbahs, date palm oases, and tiny villages.
The team took care of everything with precision and warmth. From airport pickups to luggage handling it all just worked. For the price and what’s included, this tour is an incredible value. I returned home feeling enriched!
This tour from Tangier to Marrakech was really above all my expectations. Well-balanced, plunging deep into cultural immersion in places like Chefchaouen and Fes, finding breathtaking natural landscapes like the Atlas Mountains and Sahara Desert. Riding a camel through golden dunes at sunset in Merzouga is just magic and will stay in my memory forever. Indeed, each day was passed with different experiences-from the wanderings around ancient medinas to the revelations of kasbahs hidden from the world. That really made the journey one of great enrichment.
Ghana is a beautiful country I’ll advise everyone to take a trip there. Their tours are very informative and the tour guide and bus drivers are the best.
Liked our hotel, it's location, the tours, the guides....it would have been nice to have had dinners included on the arrival nights. Overall, I thought the company did a good job of looking after us.
Terrific bus drivers, good guides, water always made available on the busses, Thank you very much.
Led by an expert local guide, this exciting 9 day group tour is an excellent way to see the country through the eyes of someone who calls it home. Starting and ending in Marrakech, this tour sees you wander the lively medinas of Marrakech and Fes, visit the striking Majorelle Gardens, and marvel at the ancient kasbah of Ait Benhaddou. Journey through the Atlas Mountains to the vast dunes of the Sahara, where you’ll ride camels and camp under the stars. Explore Roman ruins at Volubilis, the imperial city of Meknes, and the coastal capital of Rabat. Cap it off with a visit to Casablanca’s towering Hassan II Mosque.
Words cannot describe how amazing this trip was, from start to finish. Every detail that the tour company scheduled for us happened exactly as organized, with extremely helpful and friendly guides that met us from the moment we landed to the moment we left. This trip would have been difficult without a private guide, and I also didn't have to organize or schedule anything. They did it all. Not one thing went wrong, or was late. They allowed us to have a worry free trip of a lifetime that I will never forget. I would and WILL be using them again for our next trip. Excellent service and quality all around.
