Ilyace our guide was great! We felt so comfortable knowing he was always there for us with advice and local knowledge. We had two local guides while in Morocco for tours. Henan in Marrakech was so knowledgeable and easy to schedule however we wanted our tour to go. She led our food tour (and had such wonderful relationships with the vendors) as well as our walking tour of marrakech the next day. We had another gentlemen in Fes (sorry I am losing his name currently) who was great. I think the nature of that day was a little "sales" driven so while we enjoyed it we did feel a little pushed on purchases. We probably would have eliminated Casablanca (although the mosque was beautiful) and preferred to stay in Rabat or maybe the first night in Tangiers. All of the riads were unique, comfortable and hospitable and we would not have found these on our own. These really made the time in Morocco extra special. The hot air balloon add on was a must do and it happened to fall on our son's birthday so it was an extra special surprise for him. We just loved our time in Morocco and Kim Kim made it super easy to enjoy.
Hotel Reviews
Wonderful staff. Breakfast was delicious.
Amazing palace. The finest of details. What it lacked in views from the rooms it made up for in extra luxuries of amenities. Rooftop bar was lovely. Dinner service was expensive but expected in a hotel of this calibur.
Just kind of an outdated property. Staff was just okay. Some fixtures in rooms didn't work.
Such a special place led by such hospitable staff. We stayed here on my son's birthday and after a very early morning hot air ballooning followed by a city tour and then camel ride we were happy to enjoy dinner at the riad. Everything was absolutely delicious and they even arranged to have a birthday cake for my son at the end of the meal.

Definitely pay to have the tour guide walk with you or it will not mean anything to you.
Definitely saw a lot of things and enjoyed immensely. Just a little pushy on the sales by both our guide and merchants. The luncheon restaurant was amazing this day but it ended up being the exact same food that we would later enjoy with our host family. So maybe just a little communication to differentiate a little.
This was a really special night. The family was lovely. The food was great. It was wonderful to keep our driver with us to aid in communication.
