We just spent 10 glorious days in Morocco with Soufiane, our driver who escorted and transported us throughout our stay. Before we even arrived in the country, our flights and itinerary changed multiple times due to covid. Jamal, the owner of Easy Take, was excellent with communications and cheerfully accommodated every change we threw at him. Given his kindness and very reasonable fee, I knew we selected the right transport for our trip. Soufiane greeted us at the airport and we began our journey in Marrakesh. We were immediately taken by Soufiane's excellent English and comfort driving the roads of Morocco. We told him we wanted a guide for Marrakesh and he arranged a wonderful guide who met us at our Riad the following morning. We next drove off to Ouarzazate where we stopped for a tour of Ait Benhaddou on the way. The next day we went to a desert camp near Merzouga, one of the many highlights of our trip. Because of the pandemic, the camp was empty and Soufiane was able to stay in a nearby tent. We loved his company so much and were grateful that he shared the experience with us. After our stay we went to Fes, where Soufiane again arranged a wonderful guide to show us the city. Throughout our trip, he made sure we had all our needs met and was available to us anytime. Our next stop was Chefchaouen, a beautiful blue quaint town in the north. Soufiane joined us for dinner and it was another highlight of our trip. Our final stop was Casablanca, where his final drive was taking us to the airport. Because of the bond we had with Soufiane, it was actually sad to say goodbye. We are so grateful to Jamal, Soufiane and Easy Take Transport, all of whom made for a most memorable and special trip.

I booked a four days trip with another agency but Red city tour were in charge of the transport for us. I wanted to spend one night in Zagora Sand Dunes and then one night in the Sahara desert. The remaining night was spent in the lovely B&B. Nordine, the driver is fantastic. A skillful, friendly and a helpful driver. We had numerous stops to refresh and stretch our legs. The whole trip was fun and mind blowing landscapes. It would take me hours if I had to recount all the amazing places we visited along the way. Thank you Nordine for making the trip fun and for keeping us safe. Hope to make this trip again as a family in the future inchallah. Hafida

During this authentic hike, far from the crowd of the very touristic Paradise Valley, you will not see that many people except some locals caring some fruits on their donkeys. You will walk through Argan, Olive and Date trees taking paths only borrowed by locals far off the massively taken ways by tourists. Landscapes will change as you hike up and down the mountain, following the river, crossing wheat fields in oasis garden or through typical berber villages. You will see of course amazing panoramic scenes of nature but it's also a day spent like berber people to discover what the amazigh culture is about.
Inclusions: Typical berber home cooked tajine at a local home, Homemade regional products tasting, We provide water for the hike, Private transportation, Hiking Sticks , Typical berber hats to protect against the sun

I'm a solo traveller so was hoping the trip was going to be ok and it was! He minibus arrived 5 minutes early, lovely driver, spoke English, we collected other members of the group and left Marrakech at 8.30, stopping at an argon co-operative en route (it was actually really interesting, with delicious samples and NO pressure to buy!) and a cafe for toilets and coffee. We arrived in Essouria about 11.30, the driver told us where to be at 4pm, showed us where he port wa, the medina and the beach and off we all went. It is perfectly safe for a sole female traveller, you only get the usual stall-holders trying to sell you things but they don't hassle you.

We booked a 3 day tour to the Sahara , We are two girls and felt extremely safe the entire time.we have the most incredible stay in morocco due to this tour it was completely over our expectations ! Jamal our tour guide and Omar, our driver were the best! They were both so nice and were so informative explaining all the sights along the way. All the towns we passed through were so beautiful but my favourite part of the whole trip was the desert. We went to Merzouga and the Erg Chebbi Dunes and got to spend a night in tents in the Sahara Desert! We got to ride a camel to the desert camp and that was the funnest experience. All the riads we stayed in and the restaurants were fabulous choices. I highly recommend booking a tour with this company MCL . Jamal was so helpful in planning the whole experience and was always readily available on whats app. We truly cannot wait to go back to Morocco.
