Morocco: Souks & Spices

The TopDeck Morocco trip was incredible. The places and length of stay in each place were great and I loved the chances to eat at local families homes. We were always shown through local craftmanship places which was amazing to learn about such as the silk weavers, tannery, mosaics and more. The information guide we received had info on the option extras we could do but we found we had to ask about those more than they were actually offered to us but they were still all arranged quickly if we asked. The bus trips are on the longer side which is expected to get around a whole country but we never really felt it as we stopped to see lots of things on the way and for lunch. Overall amazing trip.

This trip gives such an incredible deep dive into Morocco! The culture, the food, the landscape, the cities, the activities, and the shopping. Every day of this trip is drastically different to the previous days in the best way possible. There is a good balance between doing things and down time, and between travel/bus time and time in the different locations. If you're considering this trip, let this be your sign to just do it!

Great trip and tour manager!

The trip was very well organised and executed perfectly! Our trip leader Kalid was incredible! He knew all the locals which made us feel safe and assured everywhere we went. Kalid was so well organised and gave us plenty of warning of when we might need to tip, cover up, or anything else that might impact our enjoyment. Couldn't recommend this trip or leader enough. Only thing I would suggest is potentially adding another night in the desert giving time for more activities. Potentially losing the free day in chefchaouen to make up the days.

This trip was amazing! I loved all the stops/cities we visited. Chefchaouen in particular because other tours I considered didn’t include it. The only thing I would change is having more time in the Sahara, we really only had one afternoon there since we had to leave again early the next morning. I would’ve preferred another day or even leaving later in the day the next day so we could have opportunities for other desert activities like ATVs. There wasn’t really anything to do at the next location/hotel the next day so time would’ve been better spent in the Sahara. I liked all the hotels except for the first one in Casablanca - it was very outdated and the rooms were noticeably dirty. I liked that there were so many included meals also! Our tour guide Khalid was wonderful and I loved that he would always help us book restaurant reservations and have recommendations in each location.
