Morocco Solo Tours for Single Travelers

We had a great time touring this beautiful country. Our tour director is obviously knowledgeable about Morocco and its people and we enjoyed learning from him about both. Our driver did a super job as well. The tour was well organized and the multiple moving parts came together well. I would have liked some free time at the Medinas, and I think the approach to the carpets co-op could be rethought.

Our guide was excellent and went out of his way to enhance our experience. He was very well organised. The itinerary was great with all aspects of Moroccan culture and geography experienced. The accommodation was really good illustrating the welcoming nature of the Moroccan people, as were the home visits organised for us.

What an amazing and accessible holiday—easy flight, no time difference, and very affordable. The Kennedy Hotel was comfortable, with a lovely pool and a great massage service. A few members of the group had minor niggles during the stay, but everything was sorted. It was conveniently located for both the airport and the old town, and Jardin Majorelle was within walking distance too. As a solo traveller, I felt completely comfortable exploring on my own, even in the evenings. The walking itself was stunning. The first three days took us through valleys and over passes on the way to base camp, and at the beginning of June the landscape still felt wonderfully fresh, with flowers and butterflies everywhere. We often walked in the cool shade of orchards filled with apples, walnuts and cherries just right for picking. Along the way we stopped for tea, freshly squeezed orange juice and picnic lunches. It was spectacular —snow-covered peaks, fresh green passes, yellow mountainsides full of flowers, and colourful stripes of rock and soil running across the mountains. The supporting team were great. Hicham, our guide, was generous, attentive and knowledgeable, and he made the holiday more than I had expected. Omar’s food was fantastic—plentiful and included a birthday cake. Our porters and their mules joined us on the third day, after Eid, and kept everything running smoothly. Then came summit day. We started at 4am, with a short walk to the refuge in the dark for final preparations before setting off uphill. It was a tough beginning, crossing scree and snow, with a line of head torches ahead of us and the nearly full moon lighting snow pockets in the peaks. The hike up great but was demanding and needed concentration. Stopping to look back was just stunning the path winding through the valley, hemmed in by the dramatic mountains. The rocks were incredible—every colour imaginable and patterned with fossil. Nearing the top, the views opened out to mountain ranges stretching as far as I could see. The final scramble and snow bridge to the summit were exciting and then sheer drops with diving crows, endless mountains in one direction and flat plains in the other. The descent was steady, with a few slips into the softer snow, but all part of the adventure. A finals day walk retraced out steps away from Toubkal then dropped us right into bottom of the valley along the river. Our group was small—just five of us and we all made it to the top together. It included an inspiring couple celebrating a 70th birthday on their first hiking trip! Loved this trip and still buzzing from being in the mountains!!

it's quite a full itinerary so be prepared to be on the go. especially if you don't want to miss anything and sign up for all the optional experiences.

My 3rd trip to Morocco - went specially for the desert bit of this one and it did not disappoint. Spectacular and has to be seen first hand. Loved whole trip - would suggest an extra day on the tour in the desert - at the lovely Xaluca Erfoud hotel - to rest and chill out before continuing as these tours are full on and tiring. (Like the Best of Turkey chill out day in Antalya half way through). Our guide H was excellent - seasoned tour director with his local perspective and insight. He collected our personal wishes and went out of his way to fit them in. He's kind too which is rare. M, driver, was also excellent. Easy to take their hard work for granted delivering a lot in a short space of time. My highlights were the stars followed by sunrise in the Sahara, the camel ride in the dunes, the lovely unspoilt nature - like the Ziz valley - all the birds including nesting storks. Swifts and swallows swooping over the lovely hotel pools - swam in them all. Wonderful gardens - Marjorelle better than the marketing - also the courtyard at the Bahia palace. And the Fes hotel garden! A couple of lovely seafood lunch stops. We had a nice group and it was a lovely holiday and great experience of Morocco.

A comprehensive tour of central and southern Morocco. Keeps you on your toes but in the end you will have experienced a deep dive into Morocco. Our tour guide was excellent and made our tour complete.
