My experience with Toubkal Guide strongly demonstrates that it is the premier guide service for Toubkal trekking. Due to Covid, I had to reschedule my trip several times. Throughout this process Jamal patiently and kindly responded to numerous e-mails and changes in plans. My trip with Toubkal Guide went without a hitch. Jamal himself met me at the train station in Marrakech, and transported me to Imlil Lodge. The lodge met all expectations. Beautifully decorated in the Berber style, it was a treat just to experience the lodge. Food was excellent and plentiful. My guide on the trek was Ibrahim. I could not have asked for a better guide. Ibrahim did everything in his power to make my trip a safe and successful experience. If you are going to trek with Toubkal Guide soon, ask for Ibrahim. Jamal, too, assisted so kindly in all aspects of my stay. He is an outgoing person, with a warm personality. Jamal and his staff are Berber. What better way to truly experience this fascinating culture than through Berber people themselves. Having been vaccinated, and armed with a negative PCR test for Covid, I had no problems whatsoever, entering Morocco. Jamal can also refer you to an approved testing site within a short walk of the Medina for your return test. The test cost approximately $60 US, and was ready the same day it was administered. Now is a wonderful time for a visit. The trail is not crowded, the weather is warming, and the Moroccan people are so welcoming. What a memory!

We highly recommend Cultural Morocco Tours as a company and a big part of the reason why is our driver and tour guide Ismail. From the moment we met him, he made us feel comfortable, and this remained the same all throughout our trip. He is one of the most gracious, patient, and kind-hearted people we met in Morocco, and he made our trip so memorable and enjoyable. We did the 3 day tour from Marrakech to Fes. From taking us to places and sites off-the-beaten path, to taking our pictures, and being accommodating, Ismail was the best tour guide and driver we could have asked for. At every place that we went to, Ismail had a great relationship with the locals, which speaks to his experience as a tour guide, but also his friendliness and camaraderie with people in general. It felt like we were longtime friends and he was showing us the favourite parts of his country. With Ismail, you are definitely in good hands. The time that we were sightseeing with Ismail was one of the best parts of our trip, and we have him to thank for that. As for driving, Ismail was an absolute pro. He is such a careful and conscientious driver, and you could definitely tell he takes safety seriously. I recall that we had to drive in the darkness at night, along winding roads off of a mountainside; Ismail handled these tough drives extremely well, and we always felt safe with him. Long car rides can be tough, but the car itself and the drive from place to place were always comfortable, with Ismail at the wheel and the driver's seat. He also takes breaks in between driving, which is important (and also provides picture-taking opportunities). Our tour included Aït Benhaddou, a short stop at the Atlas Studios but we didn't have time or desire to take a tour inside, a visit to a Kasbah to see how the families lived and worked, a stop in the Dades Gorges, touring an irrigation system to see how water was transported from the mountains, camel ride, beautiful desert camp, a stop in Ifrane, a stop to see and feed wild monkeys and dropped us safely to our riad in Fes. All in all, we 100% recommend Ismail and this Cultural Morocco Tours. Your trip will be so much better and more exciting if you book with them. You are missing out if you don’t. We chose this company due to the excellent reviews and the the price for a private tour was excellent. There are not enough words to describe how grateful we are for the hospitality and for providing us with the experiences that we had on this tour.

A great experience to travel through the High Mountains Tikcha, see these emblematic sites of Morocco. Our guide was wonderful. Very friendly, spacious and confident that our experience there was well planned so that we can make the most of our day. Loved all the imperial cities, but it is essential to see the barbarian life and the amazing landscapes.

Our guide was very welcoming and extremely charismatic. He kept cracking jokes and making sarcastic comments. Though the route was not very scenic, the sunset was nice and our guide took lots of pictures. Definitely an experience worth having. The mint tea and cookies at the end were also a nice touch.
