The tour was great to get an overview of the country, very well organized , bus driver was fantastic, hotel were good with good breakfast. The oco lodge was the nicest place to stay. More time in Fez would be great, sadly there was no spare time to explore. The gorge walk was a bit more difficult than explained and it should probably say that older people might struggle as there was no path and we were hiking over slippery and steep terrain, having to step over rocks. I think we were all a bit surprised by the difficulty of the walk. But the local guide there was fabulous and meeting a berber family was very nice experience. I would stop the trips to the overpriced tourist shops and production areas with sometimes aggressive selling and rather visit small businesses the Moroccan people use. We requested to stop at a seller by the road which was a great experience and a fraction of the price. The local guides were fabulous, full of enthusiasm and giving plenty of info on the walks and beyond ,making it very interesting . Sadly that can't be said about the explore Tourguide. I never had a Tourguide with such little enthusiasm and interest in the guests. He only spoke minimum, didn't give much info about Morocco, didn't stay with the meals when taking us to his place of choice (sadly often full of tourists with moderate food, small private places provided much better food and half the price) Instead he wondered off to see friends. Orientation walks were just rushing with no photo stop and not much guidance , no maps were handed out like on other tours. When I asked what museum to see in Marrakesh the answer was to check Google. That's disappointing. We considered to see the Louis Vuitton garden but needed booking in advance and was sold out by the time we arrived. This is something the guide should have told us and organized. I also never had a tour where the guide leaves early. The tour was till 20.10 but he left 2 days earlier
on the 18.10 for another tour. He put us into a taxi after dinner but couldn't be bothered to take us to the hotel just said goodbye. I have been on several tours and know that was an exception but one lady was first time with explore and very disappointed.
