Testimonials
3 day trip from Marrakech to Fes
This tour exceeded my expectations. We should have booked them for the duration of our trip in Morocco. Our guide, Hamza, in particular, made it his mission to make us feel fully at ease. He was extremely informed about all of the places we visited and could recall obscure details at a moment’s notice. He checked what landmarks, places, and even dishes we wanted to see at the start of our trip and then plotted a plan for us to visit each one. He assisted us in learning a great deal about the nation and culture, which was precisely what we needed. He treated us like family during our time in Morocco and saying goodbye to him felt like saying goodbye to a journey partner. We remain in contact to this day. He’s become a true buddy. The great guides at the desert camp also contributed to making this an unforgettable experience for the Fes to Marrakech desert tour. They went out of their way to make sure we had a good experience. Thank you to everyone who contributed to making this such a memorable event! -Alex & Carolina.
