We had a sensational 8 days Morocco tour with Karim as our driver and Original Travels. We arrived at Casablanca and traveled to Fès, Middle Atlas, Sahara Desert (Eerg Chebbi), Dades Valley, High Atlas, Marrakech. All the organized activities, visits and accomodations were perfect for our family of four with two kids (10 and 12 years old). The flow of our journey was fluid and easy. The food was just great and tasteful everywhere. Our week favorite was the desert expedition on dromaderies and the guided tour around the erg chebbi dunes. For the food, the dinner at Dar Rihanna at Boulmane Dades was gastronomic. Our local guide in Fès (Shafic) and in the desert (Amady) were excellent. Thanks for everything Karim and your team !

We only did sand board on a small dune close to the camp. We didn't have the chance to go on bigger one because there was nobody to come with us, even if we had time to do it.

No one helped us with this. We asked the camp.

Even if we had 8 hours of drive, our driver Karim made it look quicker! We did interesting stops: Ifrane, forest and Monkeys, restaurant, snowball fight in the Atlas, and multiples views. The end of our day was perfect and fluid with the camels in the desert for the sunset.

Except for the visit of the palace, we only visited the medina with the market (souk). Because we already had this kif of visit in Fès, we would have appreciated to visit more quickly the medina and focus on other specificities of Marrakech.

He did the same tour as he probably do everytime, he did not adjust his explanations even if we had visited a similar place in Fès.
