I was a little skeptical about using kimkim at first-- but it proved to be a thoroughly convenient and helpful service in planning our trip(s) to Morocco and Portugal. The travel planning services provided by Ali and Said at Original Travels were excellent! Ali and Said were always responsive to our questions and the 6 day custom trip they planned for us through Marrakech, the Atlas Mountains and Erg Chebbi exceeded our expectations. Our driver, Tarik, was excellent. We spent 8-10 hours a day with him driving from one location to the next and really appreciated his good humor, knowledge of the local area and very safe driving skills.
Hotel Reviews
We've stayed at Four Seasons all over the world. This location maintains Four Seasons well-deserved reputation for excellent service, beautiful rooms and grounds, and delicious on-site dining.
It's a LONG journey to get here-- but when you're riding a camel off into the Sahara dunes and coming back to dinner and a fireside performance, it's all worth it!
We were pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness and quality of the rooms in this newly renovated hotel. Dinner and breakfast were also very good.
While the rooms are 3 stars (clean, but relatively small), what really sets this property apart are its beautiful gardens and grounds and the views of the valley. Don't miss the chance to explore the mosque, hammam and bakery in the buildings next door .
Activity Reviews
This was the perfect activity for our first night in Marrakech. Dinner was absolutely delicious and our kids enjoyed the chance to talk with the young son of the family who prepared our meal.
This place was cool, but we could probably have skipped it in favor of more time exploring other parts of Marrakech. A little too 'instagrammy' for our tastes.
Great experience walking through the markets with multiple stops to try soup, snails, olives, bread, tagine and fresh juice.
