We got a 9 day tour with Original Travels.
Ali helped us plan the trip with all accommodations we asked for. Ali was very prompt, friendly and we got a plan exactly as we needed.

Right before the trip, we got confirmation on an emergency contact number and our driver. Everything happened smoothly in the trip- airport pickup, all accommodation bookings, handoffs to guides and back.

Our driver Soufiane was the epitome of punctuality and professionalism, always ready with a friendly smile. From the get-go, he had us feeling like old friends rather than passengers. With his expert driving skills and easy charm, he made sure we felt safe and comfortable throughout the journey.

It wasn't just about getting from A to B with Soufiane; it was about the journey itself. Our time on the road was a blast, filled with great music and even better conversations. Soufiane's vibe made the whole experience ten times better.

Sharif, our guide in Fes was friendly, knowledgeable but we felt overwhelmed - should’ve kept an extra day for the medina.

Ismail, our guide in Dades valley, immediately made us feel at home. We loved the hike and especially the lunch with his very warm and beautiful family. He even went above and beyond to take us on a river walk after lunch!

Saeed, our guide in Marrakech, was also awesome! Friendly, knowledgeable and really fun!

Seriously, I am running out of adjectives. Just go with Original travels and you’ll have an amazing trip to Morocco!

Hotel Reviews
Sofitel Casablanca Tour Blanche
Casablanca

It's a nice hotel when you enter but the room is really rundown and outdated. This didn't feel like a luxury hotel. The lobby, service and breakfast were good.

Upgrade the rooms - it's very shabby.
Karawan Riad
Fès

This is a beautiful riad! The location is very convenient, in the best part of the medina but also close enough to the car drop-off. The room was absolutely stunning, from the bed to the room furniture, layout and the bathroom, even the balcony. We had 2 dinners and breakfast here - each meal was very delicious and service was great. They also serve alcohol - so we tried a local beer and wine. We got a hammam here, which was also good - but since it was last minute, they had 1 person for the both of us - which was not ideal.

Desert Luxury Camp Erg Chebbi
Merzouga

This a great spot for glamping in the desert. The room was very comfortable and pretty, with such incredible views. We loved the camel ride, evening entertainment around the bonfire, and sandboarding right after a beautiful sunrise. The meals were also delicious, service was so good. Just for your information, this camp sits right at the edge of the dune, not between dunes.

Auberge Chez Pierre
Boumalne Dades

Beautiful rustic property - feels like you've been transported back in time and to a beautiful hillside property. The room's cozy and comfortable but the best part is the property itself and the food. The property is very beautiful with flowers everywhere. We had 2 dinners and breakfast here. The dinners are simply outstanding with 5 courses.

Hi Namrata,
