Viva Morocco!!!
Morocco

Dec 24 - Jan 2, 2025
Not sure where to begin - from the first interactions with Megan (Wanderlust Voyages) for booking this vacation to the last day of the trip - everything was impeccably planned and executed. Morocco is a "haunting" country where "new age" vibrancy (think Casablanca, Marrakech) meets "old age" charm (think Merzouga/Sand dunes/Atlas mountains). We had a fantastic 11-day trip - right from the airport pickup (Tangier) to the last day drop off at Casablanca - everything was fantastic. Our tour driver, Hassan, was a phenomenal young bloke who knew the country well! The entire roadmap, as planned, was perfect! The Riads (hotels), food, tour guides, stops along the way as planned along with all the experiences (especially the local New Year's Eve immersion at a local restaurant/bar - Malak Emeraude) were absolutely memorable! We had a few small hiccups along the way, but they were quickly resolved via the ever-so-responsive, Sara Z., who it seems, never sleeps! - so a huge thank you to her! The Wanderlust team has been incredibly responsive and for us that was a big deal - timely, prompt and professional communication all along. I would highly recommend Megan L./Wanderlust Voyages for your next Morocco trip!
Hotel Reviews
Lina Ryad & Spa in Chefchaouen was fantastic. The service was impeccable and the private terrace offered a beautiful view of the city, which made up for the slightly small room. It was one of the better places we stayed at during our trip.
Riad Mayfez Suites & Spa offered fantastic service. The staff, especially Mrs. Huda, was outstanding and made sure all our needs were met. The room we stayed in had an Iranian palace vibe and was beautiful. However, the bathroom was small, and the door did not close properly, leading to water spillage, which seemed to be a design flaw.
Riad Madu was in a great location right outside the dunes, offering beautiful views and lots of charming meeting spaces & common areas. The only downside was the lack of a flexible menu option for light dinners, but otherwise, it was a really lovely stay.
Le Berbere Palace in Ouarzazate was fantastic. It had a Hollywood vibe with themed interiors and was very comfortable, seeming more American in style compared to the other places. We enjoyed the restaurants and the overall experience.
Sillage Palace Sky & Spa in Marrakesh was cozy and boutique-like, offering a nice local vibe. We enjoyed a local New Year's celebration there, making it a memorable part of our stay.
