What a wonderful trip! After a bit of challenge finding our taxi transfer at Casablanca airport the holiday went very smoothly. The itinerary was excellent, well curated with just enough flexibility to suit the group's needs. We thoroughly enjoyed the variety of experiences and the expertise and humour of all the local guides that we met on our travels
The accommodation was very good and mostly met expectations as described, however the final riad in Marrakech was only a 3 star hotel and a 25 minute walk from the centre of town, which surprised me on an 'Upgraded' tour. It was perfectly adequate and certainly met our needs, just not what I expected at the end of the trip.
We were lucky to find ourselves with a terrific group of fellow travellers who all got on very well, however my highest praise goes to our group tour leader, Ibrahim who was exceptional.
Ibrahim is very knowledgeable and passionate about his country. He paced the trip well and was particularly adept at 'reading' the group and tweaking the plans where it would add to our comfort and enjoyment. His energy and enthusiastic personality together with his understanding and caring nature ensured that all group members had the very best holiday possible.

The taste of Morocco tour was very comprehensive and a fantastic value. As a newer tour, there are a couple of small itinerary points that weren't perfect, mostly the first night in Marrakesh when we had a foodie tour of the market followed immediately by a full meal at a restaurant. Might be better to eliminate the dinner on that day, or make it significantly later. The foodie tour was plenty!!
Mustafa was our tour leader and I couldn't praise him enough. He was wonderful, knowledgeable, open about life in Morocco and clearly loves his beautiful country. Of note, a few of us got in a sticky spot in a sandstorm in the desert, and if he hadn't found us and guided us back, I may still be there trying to find my way out. I am forever grateful for his skill and professionalism.
Wonderful tour!!
