I booked this trip because it visited three cities I have wanted to visit for some time - Chefchaouen, Fes and Marrakech. They did not disappoint. Mohammed, the guide who was with us for the whole trip could not do enough for us and ensured we were safe. There was also a local guide for each city and they were top notch as well.
I found the accommodation very comfortable - mainly in Riads but one night was spent in a lovingly restored Kasbah.
I thoroughly recommend this trip.

Excellent trip. Mohamed our leader was the best!!
Full on itinerary but perhaps make the days more balanced. Some days were early starts and late finishes with the next day less full.
Also remember we are not all expert Egyptologists!!

We had the most amazing 10 days on our Egypt Tour and Nike cruise. What made it so special was our guide Mohammed who imparts so much knowledge of ancient Egypt and Egypt today. The food and accommodation were of a high standard and all the trips especially the Hot Air Balloon trip has left us with such wonderful memories .
Thank you Mohammed and Explore

I just loved this trip. We saw so much and learned and laughed so much as we went. Too many highlights to list, and so varied too, but for me personally my favourite part was the camel ride across the sand dunes: just unbelievably beautiful.
Ridouan was an excellent tour leader: he somehow just about kept our group under control (!) and in the right place at the right time, and usually with a twinkle in his eye. He was so generous in sharing his knowledge of and pride for Morocco. We had a great group of people too: the trip was full (16) which I thought might feel overwhelming but actually worked really well.
Yes, there is a lot of driving, but that was reasonably restful too - all I needed to do was sit in a coach and watching the beautiful scenery change all around us, and occasionally have a nap. It wasn't a hardship! And it's true that the accommodation is certainly a bit basic for some stops, but each place had character, and this is travelling rather than a luxury retreat.
It's a really full-on week but I'd recommend it completely. What a fascinating, warm, colourful and welcoming country.

Absolutely amazing! Would enjoy an extra day in Fes and at the sand dunes, however, felt it was paced very well and I am very satisfied with the time spent! Jamal our local guide was very knowledgable and Jamal (our driver - there were two Jamals) was also very hospitable! Would highly recommend!
