We were going to Morocco for a surfing trip and ended up adding an extra week for sightseeing. We met Sharon from Morocco Immersions on Kimkim. Sharon planned the entire trip considering our interests and available time. Excellent decision!
We saw so much of Morocco and the people there who are hardworking, welcoming, and warm hearted. We started & ended our trip in Marrakesh. Spent the first day visiting the souks by ourselves and then with a guide the 2nd day. It was a nice overview of this busy city with visits to local attractions. Enjoyed our time in the Medina.
We traveled to Boumaine Dades where we visited Alt Ben Haddou and later saw the majestic monkey fingers, large rock formation. It’s a beautiful, natural area with stunning views. Also spent a lovely day in the Valley of Roses. Had a family cooked meal of couscous, vegetables, and chicken all prepared with the food we purchased at the local market. We toured the family farm and interacted with some family who owned the villa there. Amnay was the perfect host. It was such an enjoyable day!
Next, we drove to Merzouga where we rode camels into the Sahara and camped in glamours tents with nice showers. I’ll never forget the camel ride which was such a cool experience. Next off to Agdz. We visited Khamlia and toured Kasbah Tamnougalt. All so educational and provided a glimpse of how many locals live in buildings that from the outside look in disrepair but once inside, you experience the homey quality of the lives they’ve made there.
Our journey continued to Taroudant, little Marrakesh”. We had a long walking tour of the area with a guide who knew so much and had the respect of so many locals as witnessed in their greetings. I really liked Taroudant! It seemed more manageable than Marrakesh. I never got the hang of haggling. We experienced our first major earthquake (6.8) there which was frightening but we managed well, and Sharon’s driver/manager Omar took good care of us. Most of the locals slept outside due to fear but my husband & I returned to the hotel to sleep. We did not feel the aftershock the next morning.
Got dropped off for our surfing camp for one week and then Omar picked us up and drove us to Marrakesh for the last two nights in Morocco. We walked around quite a bit, and I slept quite a bit. It had been a very busy 2 weeks for us 60+ year olds. Marrakesh was hit hard by the earthquake and damage was noticeable, especially around the Medina. Many locals were still camped out on the sidewalks and grass due to fear of staying inside or due to loss of homes. It was a sobering reality of the impact of a natural disaster. The people continued to work and help each other. We witnessed trucks being loaded with blankets for the Moroccans who were in the mountain regions that were hit very hard by the earthquake.
Want to add we visited Souktana in Province de Taroudant where they produce and sell “high quality” saffron. We enjoyed the tour and purchased (all prices marked/no haggling) saffron as gifts for our family and friends at home.

Hotel Reviews
Hôtel & Ryads Barrière Le Naoura
Marrakech

A very westernized lodging experience. It has all the comforts of home but in a more lavish way. The breakfast bar is amazing! The staff was warm and welcoming. The hotel is close to the souks/Medina. We took a lovely evening stroll from the hotel to the Medina where many Moroccan families were busy shopping and eating. I'd recommend taking such a stroll to experience the Marrakesh night life which is so different than Marrakesh by day. We felt perfectly safe strolling in the evening/night (~11PM).

Authenticity & Character
Though this hotel, of all the ones we stayed, was the most like those in the USA, it definitely has a Moroccan touch.
Location
Great location - easy walk to the Medina and attractions.
Staff

Riad Madu Premium Camp
Merzouga

Nice glam camping experience! The tent had all we needed including a nice shower. It was very hot in the desert. All the warm clothes we packed were not needed. The service and food were good. There was some musical entertainment that added a bit of fun. The generator stopped working before bedtime but the hosts got it up and running so we had A/C for the night. The morning hike into the desert to watch the sun come up was beautiful! Wow, the stars were amazing too. The camel ride into camp & out of camp was a worthwhile experience. Our camel guide did a lot of walking and took pictures of us along the way. Some other guests rode ATV's out instead of the camels but I'm glad I rode the camel out. My husband & I had separate camel rides in & out from the other larger group of guests so it felt very special as we walked through the desert for ~1.5 hours each way.

Authenticity & Character
Felt like we were in the Moroccan desert! It was truly a unique experience!

Another beautiful hotel! We felt like the only guests there. We had a private dinner and breakfast on the scenic terrace where the pool was located. It was quite posh! The staff was excellent! They truly catered to our needs, and beyond. I slept very well. I will mention that the bathroom, though beautifully tiled and historical in design, was a bit awkward for showering. The tub narrowed on the bottom making it difficult to stand with both feed next to each other. You had to stand as if on a surfboard. I ended up washing my hair and body on my knees. Really not much to complain about. The hotel is lovely!

Palais Oumensour
Taroudant

Very nice older hotel with a lovely courtyard. It had a quaint, small town feel. The beds were comfortable and the bathroom with shower was located farther away from the sleeping area which was a nice touch. The front desk woman was so helpful, answering our many questions. She spoke very good English. We experienced the 6.8 earthquake at this property, after 11PM. It was scary to feel the room shake, at first felt like a large truck driving down the road, but intensified and we knew it was an earthquake, as other guests starting running past our door to get outside. We followed. The hotel night manager stayed with us in the courtyard. Our driver Omar checked in on us by phone. We stayed outside for 2 hours or so and then went back inside to bed. The pictures on the walls were all skewed and new cracks appeared on many of the walls with plaster/dust on the tile. We heard most of the locals slept outside that night for safety concerns, including our front desk lady. She lived there all her life as did her family and this was their first earthquake. It was truly a devastating event for Morocco and her people.

Authenticity & Character
The hotel felt like a foreign property in a very good way. An experience I thoroughly enjoyed!

Riad Nesma Suites & SPA
Medina, Marrakech

We enjoyed this last property too. It was located well into the Medina in Marrakesh. We stayed two nights. The room was small but the high ceilings seemed to add space. The bathroom was particularly small. The shower was one of the more modern ones we had with an actual shower door to open and close. The beds were comfortable. The breakfast offered a variety of options and the service was timely and polite. The rooftop where we ate was extremely nice! I had thought we'd be spending our last two nights in Marrakesh in a hotel that was more like Hotel Ryads Barriere Le Naoura, westernized. The previous week we had been in a surfing camp in a villa that was lacking much and a bit light on safety, no armrail on marble stairs, scary with wet feet so was ready for western comforts. But, the stay at Riad Nesma was pleasant and, once we adapted, it proved comfortable and added a cultural touch to our last nights in Marrakesh. I'm grateful for having stayed there.

Authenticity & Character
Felt like a Moroccan hotel with simple pleasures there for the taking.
Location
Great location for quick access to souks/Medina
Staff
Excellent - they were quick to let us in at night after dinner. The doors are locked after you enter and exit so need someone to let you in. The young man quickly rose to help us leave for the airport at 6AM.

We enjoyed the tour of Marrakesh. Our guide was knowledgeable and pleasant. He did not help us with haggling which I later learned he was supposed to have done so that was a bit disappointing. I never got the hang of haggling. It always felt overwhelming. We ended up not buying much in the Medina. I think with time, haggling would come. You really need to visit shops and get prices before you decide to purchase so you can determine a fair price. We never got to that stage.

This was a fun stop. We walked through a dry waterway to get to the ksar which provided a nice view on approach. It was historical and pleasant, with a much needed breeze because the temps were hot. Lots of uphill walking so wear comfortable shoes and sun protection. Several movies have been filmed here. A list of these movies is posted for viewing. There is a nice artist room where paintings and carving are made for purchase.

We experienced our first major earthquake in Taroudant. The city suffered damage from the quake. I would have stayed more than one night if we had the time to do so.

I am incredibly pleased regarding our trip to Morocco and specifically want to strongly recommend working with Hakim. Because of our jobs, we were only able to plan our vacation three weeks in advance. Hakim worked with us on our itinerary, and make everything we wanted happen despite the short time frame. I really loved how he balanced incorporating all our special requests with recommending things we weren't sure about that ended up being some of our favorite parts of the trip. For context, we arrived in Marrakech about 5 hours before the earthquake and our itinerary had to be adjusted pretty significantly the first few days. Hakim was BEYOND supportive and accommodating (even at one point working to change a food tour to a cooking class despite the company never having hosted one before). The same praise needs to be extended to all our guides in Marrakech and our driver Hammadi, all of whom where incredibly flexible, kind, and explanatory despite being impacted by the earthquake. Hammadi definitely needs his own call out for being more than accommodating and hospitable, and we truly enjoyed getting to know him throughout the week. Further, I highly recommend Dar Baraka in Marrakech as they went out of their way to find us alternative, safe accommodation the first night. Finally, Abraham, our tour guide in Rabat, despite being brand new, was absolutely awesome, knowledgeable and professional.

My only cons related to the trip are minor given our overall satisfaction with the trip.
-Our first night, we were out on the streets with the rest of the city due to the earthquake until 5am, we had called the emergency line just for confirmation that there was nowhere safe we could stay and for confirmation that we could reschedule our 5:30am event the next day given the circumstances. They told us to plan to still attend and left us on read regarding the accommodations, which I think added unnecessary stress (that Hakim quickly alleviated the next day). Someone from KimKim US also reached out regarding the situation the next day, but didn't follow up to my call back.
-Just generally, I wish there was more price transparency.
-In Fes, the guide used our tour to run his own errands, told us to wait while he finished a conversation and pushed us into a clearly touristy restaurant with pretty high fixed prices. Overall, he was a knowledgeable guide but I would go with someone else if I could do it over again.

Dear Lindsey,

Thank you so much for your valuable feedback!

I'm so glad to hear that your travel experience was outstanding despite the last events while you were in the country. It has been more than a great pleasure to work with you and Joshua. You've been such wonderful people to exchange with.

It's also nice to read both your driver and your local guides were at the level of your expectations. Both Hammadi (the driver), Amine (the guide in Marrakech), and the guide in Rabat are in fact trusted people who usually deliver the best. They'll be more than happy to read your review too.

On the other hand, I would like to share with you that due to the earthquake, the person in charge of the emergency phone number was really doing his best as he had to deal with so many calls despite the weak single on that night caused by the earthquake. Everyone had to help and assist, therefore, I was also there to assist you and respond to all your requests. As for the guide in Fes, I'll make sure to contact him and share your valuable remarks for future experiences. Last but not least, I would like to bring to your attention that the pricing was shared per person for this experience. Given the reason that we offer package tours only, the only price we share is the total amount for the whole experience or per person.

Again, it has been more than a pleasure to work with you. I wish you and Josh all the best. Hopefully, we can work again in the near future.

We were there during the earthquake and Said reacted very quickly to ensure that we were safe. Our local guides in Fes, Essaouira and Marrakech were great and very knowledgeable about their cities. My only quip was that the Fes and Marrakech tours tried to take us to a rug co-op (we did one in Fes) and we ended up at a Berber apothecary co-op twice as well. There didn’t seem to be communication as to the activities we had completed in a previous city. Some of the stores also felt very pushy for sales. But that’s definitely not Said, Ilyace or anyone with KimKim/Original Travels fault!

This 10 day trip was very well organized and covered areas of great natural splendour and places of historical importance. The accommodations were mostly in traditional riads that were beautiful and offered great services.
However, the most important factor in making our trip unforgettable was having had Karim as our guide/driver.
Karim is very positive and respectful and was always sure to respond to our needs making us feel welcome and safe.
Karim’s deep and personal knowledge of the sites and cultural aspects that make Morocco so unique contributed to our learning and enjoyment. There were innumerable highlights, one of the most memorable was our visit to a nomad family in their dwelling in the Atlas mountains. This interaction gave us a deep understanding of this centuries old way of life.
Our time in Morocco was marred by the occurrence of a strong earthquake that left much death and destruction. Karim kept us informed, answered all our questions and was very supportive and reassuring.
Karim’s driving skills are superb, be it on the highway, the cities, the desert or the mountain roads the rides felt safe and as confortable as possible.
We leave Morocco with great admiration for its varied and spectacular natural beauty, the uniqueness of its ancient and modern cities but mostly for the friendliness and resilience of its people, Karim being one great ambassador. We thank him and the team for making this trip so unforgettable.

Arriving to our desert camp on the back of a dromedary, what a unique experience! The camp had all of the comforts that one expects in cities but in this unique natural setting. We became aware that there is a great effort to offer these comforts with very little environmental footprint, which is so important. That day there was a sand storm, however, we were safe and protected. The food was tasty and the service impecable. At the end of dinner the staff put on a fantastic evening concert with traditional music, what a treat! Sunrise in the desert among the sand dunes is an experience to be remembered.

Wonderful ten days in Morocco last December!

My husband and I typically plan and book our trips on our own, but this time we wanted to visit many places and needed a driver to takes us from place to place.

After reading many reviews, we contacted Kimkim and they didn't disappoint: they were very responsive and immediately put us in touch with a local agency, Original Travels.

Mohamed has been very helpful putting the itinerary together based on our interests and specific requests, understanding that we weren't looking for a fully organized trip and wanted to discover Morocco on our own.
He suggested charming riads and cultural/fun activities to do.
We kept making changes and Mohamed was very fast (and patient!) on sending us the updates.

Once in Morocco, Said made sure everything was going as planned and we were enjoying our trip. He went above and beyond our expectations and also arranged a wonderful New Year's Eve dinner!

Our driver, Soufyan, was excellent: very professional, safe, fun, and very attentive to all our needs!
It was reassuring to see him every morning, picking us up at our hotel, always on time!
Along the road he took us to traditional restaurants and recommended typical dishes to try.
He definitely made this trip stress free and so memorable, especially when he invited us to his house to meet his family and cooked for us... such a wonderful experience!!
We enjoyed the hours in the car with him. Learning about the Moroccan culture, music and his family.

One of the highlights of our trip was the desert: spectacular camel ride at sunset to the Tiziry Luxury Camp.
Ahmed and the Berber staff were so welcoming and fun!

We had such a good experience with KimKim that now we are organizing our trip to India.

I believe this Riad looks beautiful. However it’s not very old. It’s quite overrated and maybe the services have gone downhill. It takes extremely long and the services are not as good as the other riads. For the money charged, you don’t get the satisfaction and comfort. The rooms need maintenance. Our tub was leaking, many lights did not have bulbs, my son’s room had a big unknown stain on the sheet. The hammam was overpriced and not upto the mark. We did complain to the owner and got the refund which was decent of him. If he fixes the maintenance and services issues, this place would be fantastic. The location is prime.

only issue with this Hotel is the pool times that you had to slot in for. Also, there was a lounge in the pool area that you didn't know whether to sit on or not. the furniture in the pool area needed an update, I suggest taking the lounge out and putting a small table and chairs so you could take a drink into the pool area. The Massage Therapist was absolutely amazing, it was the best massage I have ever had.

Riad No 37

Riad No.37 - a home away from home, a sanctuary among the bustling Marrakech Souqs (‘bazaar market’). Thank you Youssef, Oussama, Mohammed and team who have providing care to us like our brother and sister. It was 42oC noon, we seek shelter in this well design No.37 with the two courtyards and cooling living areas and the rooftop chill pool. I cherish every moment spent in this humble abode - breakfast, reading books, listening music, hanging out with friends. Particularly, I enjoy the refreshment from well brew mint tea (real mint leaves), authentic breakfast and local delights pastries. The size is just right with 8 numbers of welly curated guest rooms. Is throughly a home for a perfect family and friends getaway. The location is perfect and safe to explore the different facet the Souqs of Jemaa El-Fna and its surrounding sightseeing such as Le Jardin Secret and Bacha. It is an amazing and memorable stays with No.37.🍃🥠🍵
