9 days tour best of Morocco starting from Marrakech

We loved our tour: gives a complete perspective of Morocco both culturally and geographically. Ismail is effective, and knows what people want to see and experience.

Simon

wonderful 9 days tour

03-Mar-2021

Great trip! Camel trekking in the Sahara was a bucket list item for me, and it did not disappoint. The vastly different scenery throughout Morocco is forever etched in my mind. Our guide Abdulatif was the BEST! He was very knowledgeable and went over and above to make sure everyone in our group had what they needed on a daily basis. The shopping in Fes was excellent! There was a lot of driving involved, but that was to be expected as it is the only way to see everything in a short amount of time. So happy I booked this tour. Do it!

Ishmael

Highly recommanded tour

29-Apr-2021

I had been wanting to go to Morocco for some time and finally decided to do it. I am so glad I did. The trip was wonderful, we saw beautiful landscapes, visited interesting cities, spent a night in the desert, ate delicious food, stayed in charming hotels, and generally absorbed the wonderful country that is Morocco. I met a terrific group of people, we shared many laughs, and made some lifelong friendships. The trip was well-organised from beginning to end, and our guide Yassine was beyond excellent. He was attentive to all our needs, well-organised, informed, and always ready to help. He was also a lot of fun, made us laugh and became a member of our troupe. If you're wondering whether you should go to Morocco, just do it.

I had the most incredible time on The Road to Casablanca tour with Morocco Private Tours. We saw so much of Morocco in just a short amount of time, but at the same time the tour did not feel too fast-paced or that we did not have time to take in all of Morocco. Exploring the old medinas in Fes and Marrakesh, and spending a night in the Sahara were definitely highlights. Our tour guide Ismail was wonderful, and made the trip the amazing experience it was by being so helpful, prepared, knowledgable and a good friend.

Great experience

14-May-2021

The guide, driver and transportation were great. Food was very good, but too much — did not need 3-course meals. City tour guides were good, but especially in Marrakesh we were taken to 2 high pressure shops and did not see most of the Medina. I think everyone wants more free shopping time, not just where the guide wanted to take us were the prices were very high. In total good tour, good itinerary, great guide took good care of us. Will recommend to other people
