We felt very well taken care of by Kalam and Mr.Z throughout the entire trip. Accommodations and details were double checked ahead of time and all seemed pretty seamless as the week progressed. Though we wished to stay at a hotel or two that were sold out, we did end up enjoying all of our booked accommodations. We really enjoyed La Maison Araibe the most in accommodation and service. We thought Inara Camp was really a cool experience and gorgeous setting. The staff was affable enough. In all, Kamal and Mr. Z made the trip for us from checking on every detail, personality, dining suggestions and reservations to medication when Paul fell ill. Thank you for a wonderful family experience! The Ollinger Family

Our family of four, including our two sons, recently returned from a magnificent two-week trip in Morocco, expertly arranged by Rabia and Salma from the Experience Morocco travel agency.  From the initial planning to the execution, all arrangements and details were handled smoothly and professionally - I would heartily recommend Experience Morocco for travel to Morocco. Salma and Rabia understood exactly what we were looking for. Their suggestions for hotels and riads, including the Sahara desert camp near Merzouga, were simply amazing, as were all sightseeing tours and activities. All emails prior to the trip were answered promptly and with excellent information. Our expert guide, Mohamed, and skilled driver, Magid, were beyond wonderful! They stayed with us for the entire two weeks, even taking us to restaurants in the evening. There is nothing like a custom and expertly planned trip! We never had to wait in lines at museums, the airport, restaurants, tourist attractions, etc. - - Mohamed smoothed the way for us wherever we went. This included special tables set for us in the desert and in the mountains for lunch... and even in the cities. Everything was so beautifully arranged and smoothly executed. We started in Casablanca with the fast track service at the airport. Then Mohamed and Magid greeted us, and we toured Casablanca, including the mosque and various sections of the city. The next day we left for Fes, but stopped for a private tour of the Volubilis ruins, followed by a private wine-tasting and delicious multi-course lunch at a winery near Meknes. In Fes, we toured the medina and souks and monuments, did a food tour through the souk, and attended an amazing evening cooking class and dinner at a stunning riad. We then went to the Sahara for a bit of glamping at an amazing desert camp in Erg Chebbi, Merzouga. We sandboarded on the dunes at sunrise, had tea and "Berber pizza" while visiting nomads, went on an ATV dunes tour, visited our host's local village for music, tea and lunch, rode on camels to see the sunset, and sat by the campfire at night to hear music and look at the blanket of stars in the sky. The two days we spent in the desert were indescribable. We then went to Skoura, where we visited a gorge and stayed at a wonderful Kasbah fortress. Then on to Marrakech, where we toured all the monuments and markets and did a food tasting at Jemaa el-Fna square. My favorite moment was the private sunset sidecar tour of Marrakech, including a wine celebration on a riad rooftop.  We also did a hike in the Atlas Mountains and visited with a Berber family - I learned to make the most delicious bread. I cannot say enough great things about our trip and Experience Morocco.

Fantastic! Morocco is a truly engaging country filled with rich history, artisans, culture, and natural wonders. We packed a lot in in 2 weeks and are so glad we did. Our guide and driver were highly professional and just top notch.

Our family of 4 just finished a 10 day Experience Morocco tour and we can't rate them highly enough! Firstly, winter is a beautiful time to do this (we deliberated as most say do in warmer months but being from Australia the beach part was less important) as its cool and easy. We did Marrakech to Casablanca via Sahara and Fes. Some long drive days but the scenery is varied and often amazing. Our Riads were all superb, the guides all wonderful (shout out to Said in Marrakech, Omar in Ourika Valley, our 4 cool guys on the side cars, and Shaquib in Fes). Hard to pick highlights but dont pass up the side cars in Marrakech, the hike in Ourika Valley, the Sahara glamping experience incl camels and ATVs, and the guided tours through Medina's in both Marrakesh and Fes are a must to get the full experience. Last but certainly not least, our incredible driver Mohamed! We elected not to have a full time guide and if you got Mohamend you'd never regret it (you can request a driver I believe). He was always knowledgable, professional, always going out of his way to do the little things to make everything just that bit better, super friendly, great English, great driving and a knack for remembering little comments like 'ooh I love the dates here' and 2 hours later as we pass through the town famous for best dates in world and pulls up, jumps out and 5 minutes later presents a full box of dates. Litlte things, but they all added up to make it all the more special in an already very special country. Highly recommend.

We have just returned from an amazing family vacation in Morocco and had a fantastic time! Our group consisted of 9 people ranging in age from 14-59 so there were a wide variety of needs to be met. Experience Morocco did not disappoint! Our private guide Mustapha was an integral part of our trip’s success. He paid attention to every detail to ensure our needs were met and that we were satisfied with all of our adventures. And we absolutely were! He went above and beyond, shared his honest opinions and always had our safety in mind. Our driver Abdel was also fantastic! He was always available, even on New Year’s Eve and at all hours of the night when our curious 25 year old wanted to experience the Moroccan night life. We all agreed that this was one of the best trips we’ve taken. I’d highly recommend Experience Morocco, Mustapha and Abdel!!

Mohamed Boukrik, our driver, and after a week now our friend, is an excellent companion and guide to explore. Professional, refined, knowledgeable. Morocco is a fascinating and multifaceted country with its history, religions and cultures. Experience Morocco and Rebecca Alesia/SmartFlyer helped us experience modern and ancient. Our guides, Rashid and Salah, were also very friendly and knowledgeable. We had a general itinerary in Marrakesh and the High Atlas Mountains, and tried to leave several hours on most days where we could explore on our own or just relax for a bit. Motorcycle side cars in Marrakesh was a hit with my teens as well as ATVs in the desert. Lanai Chef is a GREAT cooking class. Hike Dades Gorge and Pattes de Singe. Vallee est figues Restaurant- super nice people and cat. Great direct view of monkey fingers. Excellent tagine Hotel Kzar Ighnda near Ait Benhaddou was a very special retreat, despite having read some mixed reviews. Ryad Elegancia and Hotel Naoura also great to balance out the different experiences (ryad, kasbah, hotel). I appreciated that the few guide suggested retail stops we made in Marrakesh were at reputable stores with high quality, not tourist traps. Opted for an afternoon/evening in Agafay instead of two nights in the Sahara desert, which was fine for this trip. Our approach was to stay focused on Marrakesh and the Atlas mountains, go deeper and take it in, rather than trying to cram numerous cities into 9 nights with 8 hour drive stretches. For us that worked on this trip.
