We had such a great trip. Majid was great at meeting our specific needs for the trip and was so responsive before and during you could not ask for more. We were 5 friends traveling together and were in a van all nine days. Our drive and guide Moaud was so delightful!!. He made sure we were well taken care of and went above and beyond to share his country and culture with us. His radiant smile greeted us every morning and never stopped the whole day. I can't say enough about Mouad or how much he made our trip special.
Our guide Yoesph, in Rabat was great. He had a great depth of knowledge and was able to answer all of our questions. and we had a lot. I would highly recommend him if you are going to the capital city.
In Fes we had a whole day in the Medina with Hikam. He grew up in the Medina so he knows every crook and cranny. He shared a out of the way place for mint tea, it was great. Then we stopped for fava bean soup (Basarra) with the locals it was great. You can't miss with him as your guide.
Ali took us around the old medina in Marakeesh and he was a wealth of knowledge and knows his history inside out.
Later that day we went on a food tour with Hamid. He took us to some local places where we tasted some chic pea soup (harira) and Moroccan doughnuts that were great. Then the tangier restaurant was the best ending. You can't go wrong with Hamid as your food guide.
Don't miss going the Sahara desert camel ride with a stay at camp. We wish we would had two nights there, next time. The Dades Gorge was an unexpected surprise and another day to hike would have been nice.
Our trip was so fun and we all would go back.

Activity Reviews
We loved the food tour. Hamid was great. He was knowledgable and very kind. I would recommend him and the food tour to anyone traveling to Marakeesh
Rabat was lovely. I had no idea what to expect but was so impressed with the beauty and how clean it is. Loved the kasbah
This is a long drive but it was beautiful and Moaud made it fun!
We walked the city on our on and it was great. The hotel was lovely
Mouad was the best in making this drive fun
Loved our walk through the ruins. It is a beautiful spot.
Loved every minute of our tour of Fes. The Medina was beyond expectations. My sister was dupped out of $20.00 outside of our Riad. Mouad and Hikam found the man and got my sister's money back. Was above and beyond what was expected. Also we had a member who was sick and Mouad and Hikam got her water and cumin which really helped. They both were fantastic.
The scenery was stunning and very unexpected. The stops along the way were great. The hotel was a very unexpected pleasure and the food was outstanding
This was a bit of a disappointment. The family was lovely and so was the food. They had small childern and they were very distracting from the experience.
Long drive but so interesting. The landscape was amazing. We stopped and saw the monkey which was fun.
This experience exceed expectations. The sceenery was stunning and the camp was a dream come true.
It was interesting tour but really fast paced without time to enjoy the medina
Loved the overall experience. The service was great. I would do it again.
We ran out of time for this. The was scheduled too tight. This should be reviewed.
Loved looking at the kasbahs.
