We had an absolutely brilliant tour with Adil. He arrived at our accommodation and asked what we were most interested to see. After discussing this and confirming we did not want a shopping tour, we headed off. Adil is incredibly knowledgeable about the history of Fez and Morocco. He took us to the key sites and around the Medina, explaining things as we went, answering our questions and discussing Moroccan life and culture. He put us at ease in the complicated and bustling streets of the Medina and gave us a list of things not to miss after the tour. Our tour with him was absolutely excellent. It is such a nice introduction to Fez and the key sites around the Medina, getting local insight and a history lesson, without worrying about getting lost or being touted by shop keeps. Highly recommend it and sincere thanks to Adil. He was fantastic.

We had a great experience with Marrakech Camel Trips. We did the private three day tour with the luxury tent. Our driver and guide, Ali, was on time, safe, and willing to stop at any point to take pictures with us. He even helped us try to arrange/confirm travel arrangements as restrictions were being put in place due to the corona virus. The stay in the desert was a once in a lifetime experience. The staff was friendly and entertaining, the dinner was great, and the tents were wonderful!

Together I drive with you into the area. My specialty is driving in the sand. Beginners and advanced learners find ideal conditions in Morocco to build and consolidate a solid off-road knowledge and skills. For the offroad driving school, you should bring your own SUV. Learn to drive your vehicle properly and assess off-road situations. Once you've learned, it pays off in traffic and avoids damage to the vehicle.

Hiring this tour operator, we were able to reach many destinations in Morocco not wasting time and money. In fact, they took us to many places without unnecesary detours. The driver was very kind and helpful, and let us experience a magnificent trip. We felt safe, comfortable, confident and satisfied at all times. For those reasons, we spent our time learning, enjoying the astonishing beauty of the historical places in Fez, Casablanca, Rabat, Marrakech, Meknes and Volubilis and getting immersed into the moroccan culture.
