Kimkim Trip Reviews for Morocco

Overall, I'd say the trip was a success. Morocco was a unique destination with lots of history. The itinerary with pros and cons is below:

Some high level detailed about the trip and our experience with KimKim's user interface:

11 days starting and ending in Casablanca. We took Royal Air Maroc from Montreal to Casablanca and back. If you have an option to take another airline, I would highly recommend it. Royal Air Maroc has bad customer service and is generally not a friendly business. If you need further proof, just look at Royal Air Maroc's reviews on TripAdvisor...it's bad.

KimKim's user interface is pretty slick, especially with the chat feature. I like the ease of communication. A con I have is that when you finalize trip updates and a new itinerary is created in the chat, it doesn't necessarily update the trip itinerary tab on the website. Those two items should really be synced so the customer doesn't get confused with all of the changes that take place while planning a large trip.

The first day we landed in Casablanca and our private driver picked us up from the airport and transported us straight to Marrakech. Our driver was very great and spoke good English. He was friendly and chatted with us throughout our trip. The driver really worked hard as our itinerary required lots of driving.

Marrakech: The most tourist friendly city of our trip. It was easy and safe to walk around. We liked our guide a lot. I'd recommend the food tour as that was a good experience to try local food.

Essaouira: This coastal town was about 2.5 hours east of Marrakech and provided a relaxed feel with a pretty neat local fishing culture. Lots of fresh catches in the medina which was fun to observe. A good look into non-tourist Moroccan culture. We enjoyed our guide here as well. Very relaxed and informative.

Ait Benhadou: You can probably skip the Kasbah and Ait Benhaddou if you plan on going to the desert. There really isn't much to see unless you like movie props from Game of Thrones or Gladiator. This town has just gotten hype from Hollywood and isn't worth seeing. The trip to the desert is very long. We spent 2 days traveling for about 6 hours both days just to get there. If we had spent more time driving instead of stopping and staying in Ait Benhaddou, this part of the trip would have been much better. I'd recommend you keep driving and stay somewhere around the Todha Gorge.

Sahara Desert: Cool spot/experience that I would highly recommend. Riding the camels was definitely my highlight. Beautiful views and our Desert Luxury Camp was great! NOTE: You can buy and bring your own wine to the desert camp and save some money. A big con here is that there was little information for how we were supposed to get to/from the desert camp. KimKim needs to provide a much more detailed itinerary of when guests can arrive at the desert camp headquarters for transport out into the desert to the campground. The lack of information on timing and what exactly we could bring out to the camp misguided us and was rather inconvenient.

Fes: Overall a really cool place with the exception of some locals in the medina trying to misdirect you and get you lost so they can lead you out for tip money. Definitely something I found bothersome, but Fes is a really unique experience. The medina is so maze like, it's something I've never experienced before. We also really enjoyed the food in Fes. Our guide in Fes, Sherrif, was the best guide we had all trip. We went against the hotel advice of KimKim and chose our own hotel in Fes which was rather deep in the medina. I wouldn't recommend this due to how easy it is to get lost going to and from your hotel and how many of the locals tried to misdirect us during our travels to/from our hotel. If I could do it again, I'd take KimKim's hotel advice and stay more on the fringe of the medina closer to a main street so I didn't have to deal with the navigation stress, especially at night. I would also recommend that KimKim in the future please explain to guests why the recommend the hotels that they do. Some explanation of guest safety would have been very helpful here.

Chefchaouen: Relaxing city with good views and art but overhyped by Instagram. No need to go here if you're tight on timeline. Our guide here was very nice but hard to understand. We felt as though we walked out without really learning much about the history/culture of the city.

Rabat: A bigger modern city, not much else to say. Definitely not the reason you travel to Morocco. We only passed through and it was enough.

Casablanca: I had the exact same thought about Casablanca as I did about Rabat. Not the reason you travel to Morocco, although the Hassan II Mosque is worth seeing if you find time while flying in/out of Casablanca. It was massive and gorgeous! NOTE: The Hassan II Mosque allows tourist to enter but you must enter at one of the designated times. We were NOT told this by KimKim as the inside tour wasn't part of our itinerary and we missed the opportunity to go inside. This was a big letdown when we found out we were too late to see the inside. If the customer is having a tour of Casablanca, a tour of the inside of the Hassan II Mosque should be obligatory and times of entry should be clearly stated to the customer. Unclear minor details and trip logistics made for some frustration through the entire trip. Although it didn't lead to any major setbacks, this type of detailed planning is what we paid for when using a guide service, and we feel as though we didn't receive the local expertise and guidance at certain times. The Hassan II Mosque visit is an example of this logistics issue. Another negative about our trip to Casablanca was that KimKim recommended the Movenpick and it was not very nice. It felt dated and unclean. I'd recommend KimKim find a different hotel to work with.

Activity Review

Hammam & Spa Experience Marrakech

Morocco

The cultural experience was interesting but this Hammam wasn't the right fit. We were looking for something much more luxurious and we thought that would have been built into our itinerary, but this place just wan't nice. It felt very hustle bustle and the business model was to move tourist - there was nothing relaxing about this experience. There are many nice Hammams in Marrakech, but this wasn't one of them. The bad part was that KimKim never told us which Hammam we were booked at. We trusted them and they let us down on this experience.

Quality of Experience

We had such a great experience from start to finish! Yassine was able to help us create a trip that was just exactly what we wanted and nothing we didn't - from where we went, what we did and even the level of luxury of hotels from city to city. Our driver was friendly, attentive and a wonderful ambassador to Morocco, helping us understand the culture and history and people of Morocco. We were so well taken care of throughout that even when I left my new smart watch at the tent camp in the Sahara, our driver, Said, was able to arrange for it to be brought to Marrakesh where we were.

We will use kim kim again and we WILL be back to visit Morocco again. Thank you for a memorable and wonderful experience.

Evening Food Tour in Marrakesh

Marrakesh

This was one of my favorite activities we did in Morocco. We were guided by Rachid, who was not only professional and knowledgeable but a lovely human being. Had we not had to run off to retrieve a lost item, our conversation with him would have continued despite our tour being officially over. Of course there was more food than we could consume. The food was delicious and we revisited some of the places he took us for more of the same later during our stay in Marrakesh. But Rachid was the best part by far!

Quality of Experience

Guides, Drivers and Staff

Rachid was the best

We wanted to visit Morocco for a long time and the soccer semi-final entry pushed up to go ahead with the trip :-) Honestly, I had never heard of Kimkim before and once I started engaging with different tour operators, I started loving it. Right from the start (earlier this year), I have been working with Abdellah on the details, tours and costs. He is extremely helpful, communicated really well and is quick to get back to you with answers to your questions.
We were very lucky to have Faissal as our driver. He is very humble, respectful and a very safe driver. He was with us for a week from our Marrakesh airport pickup all the way to our departure from Casablanca airport. His English communication skills is excellent and he responds fast over Whatsapp. We always felt safe with him on our side. Very lucky to have him as our driver. Our English guide in Marrakesh was Hanan. She was awesome in every respect. She took the time to explain in detail the different sites we visited in Marrakesh. She also has excellent English communication skills. She never rushed us anywhere and let us take our time to absorb the local vibes. We even had her join us for lunch. Pray you get Hanan as your English guide :-) . The same goes with Abdel who was our guide in Fez. He walked us around and gave detailed explanations of everything in the never ending souk streets. He was very patient and treated us with deep respect. Overall, we had an amazing trip and miss it so much. We will definitely visit Tangier and Chefchaouen the next time as we fell short of days in this trip. Our best night was at the Luxury camp in Sahara desert. What a night! The breakfast and dinner served there was fabulous. On top of all, we enjoyed some good Berber music over campfire.

There were only 2 irritating issues which I am sure can be smoothened our for future visitors. The first one was the visit to the Berber carpet factory which we think was hard sell marketing of carpets. For a tourists, there is nothing to see but a store where you are shown different rugs. We love animals and have no animal products at home so it was a little awkward for us to be sold rugs made of animal fur/skin :-) The second issue was the 2 nights stay at Fez. We were supposed to stay 2 nights at Riad Ghita but the first night after waiting for long time we were told to stay at Riad Soleildor. There were no bathroom doors, enough toilet paper there. The next day we were shifted back to Riad Ghita.

Overall we left with a very warm opinion about Morocco and her people. Moroccans are proud of their culture and love to show it to the world. In turn, they have respect for people from other cultures and backgrounds no matter where you come from.

We would definitely be engaging Original Travels for our next Morocco trip. We would be recommending them to our friends here in the US and also to our friends and family in India.

Thank you Original travels, Faissal, Hanan and Abdel for making our vacation a very memorable one.

This was the best experience we have ever had! Our planning and booking experience was seamless and the kimkim team ensured we did everything we wanted - and even made suggestions! Our driver, Lahcen, was amazing from start to finish. He was extremely knowledgeable, and made sure we saw and did everything we wanted to. All of the other day guides were equally knowledgeable and amazing. I cannot recommend this trip more.

We just got back from the most vibrant and culturally engaging week long trip from Morocco.
This is our first time using Kimkim to book an experience and it has been absolutely seamless, flexible and a very assuring experience. We were a bit nervous about traveling with two young kids but Mohammed and the entire team went above and beyond to ensure that they clarified all our questions promptly, provided many options to choose from and took care of everything behind the scenes right from planning through execution to our dietary and accommodation needs.
We were also so lucky to have Karim as our friend and local guide throughout the week. He is one of the warmest persons we have engaged with - always smiling , excited about the day and always pleasant. It was a long trip and never once did he lose his enthusiasm or smile! He was very knowledgeable and shared a lot about the history and culture of both the Arabs and the Berbers and his own story - which was so inspirational! He took care of all our needs through out the trip and made it so comfortable for us that we could thoroughly enjoy the experience. The kids loved him and at the end of the week, he was like family to us!

We also enjoyed our day with Hennan who was one of the kindest and most people we have met. Despite a delayed start the first day, she patiently walked us through the streets of Marrakech and helped us with all of our shopping.

Overall, an absolute smooth and enjoyable experience. Thanks Kimkim for nailing it!

This is first time we traveled with a driver and used guides. We typically travel alone and are very spontaneous . The idea of traveling with a schedule was a bit unsettling, but it ended up working great.
We loved Kimkims digital process for putting together an itinerary. It enabled us to individualize our tour. We made special requests and they were able to accommodate them. We also thought the ongoing service /acccess once we arrived in Morocco from Said was excellent. The Riads they chose were excellent; the level of service the Riads offered was amazing( not to mention beautiful).
The highlight of Kimkims role was their connection with Original travels in Morocco and then original travels driver Tayeb.

Tayeb was not only a great driver(very safe) , but he was a delightful human being with a vast knowledge of many things, which made our driving time a lot of fun. He spoke English beautifully, provided us with historical background on the areas we were driving through, was willing to be flexible for our requests and was willing to have in-depth cultural conversations if we initiated them. All of this added so much to our trip. Much to my surprise and pleasure, the time with Tayeb became a thoughtful and insightful cultural exchange . One we will cherish for years to come.

This was by far our favorite Riad ! The Riad itself was gorgeous, the location was perfect, the roof top deck with pool was so relaxing after a day in the Medina, but the staff was Superior! We have never felt so pampered by staff and accommodations. They arranged a Hammam ( in house) and we were able to visit their sister Riad to experience a jazz bar that made you feel like it was 1930. We also appreciated the music played (jazz) on the roof top terrace in our riad

Ismail our guide was excellent, he was always early and very dependable as well as knowledgeable. He made the trip really good and I would highly recommend him.

Our trip to Morocco was our first time traveling with Kimkim, and I cannot recommend them enough.

Majid was responsive and helpful with everything we wanted to do and with all my questions about how kimkim worked, logistics of our trip, and locals customs. He was flexible with last minute changes (our incoming flight changed and our luggage was lost). He worked seamlessly with Zak (our driver and guide) to make sure we were comfortable and had what we needed.

With Majid’s help, my husband and I traveled through Morocco for 8 days. Zak was with us for the entire trip. Not only was he a safe driver, but he helped us learn some Arabic and Berber, took us to amazing viewpoints and lunch spots, and quickly became our friend. There are too many incredible moments to list out here, but some of our favorites were seeing the Hassan II mosque in Casablanca, seeing the Roman ruins in Volubilis, learning about the monarchy and current King in Rabat, exploring the Fes medina and food tour with Hakim (he was the best!), seeing the Jemaa el Fna square in Marrakech, experiencing hammam, and riding camels and stargazing in the Sahara. Zak put out the energy that we put in (when we were talkative, so was he; when we were quiet, he let us relax) and it was perfect for us! Zak, thank you!!

The riads and hotels we stayed in were beautiful, friendly, and the hospitality won us over instantly.

We will definitely use Kimkim again and recommend the company to our friends. And, when we are looking to go back to Morocco, I hope we will get to work with Majid and Zak again.

Our trip to Morocco this past September exceeded all our expectations. We knew from the very start that we had a great company because our Morocco Immersions contact, Sharon, not only lives in Morocco and knows the country very well, but she treated us like ‘old friends.’ She worked with us in a very collaborative manner, asked questions, and listened carefully to our ideas. She came back with a very unique and reasonably priced 7 day itinerary.

When we first arrived in Casablanca, we were picked up at the airport by Hicham who was both an incredible and personable tour guide (as well as a very competent and safe driver). He stayed with us our entire visit, from Casablanca to Marrakech, through the High Atlas Mountains, the Dades Valley, the impressive Todgha Gorge and into the dunes of the Sahara (albeit via Camel), staying at a luxury desert camp where we watched the sunset and enjoyed dinner and lively local music. Following our trek into the Sahara, we continued into the High Atlas Mountains and then into the Middle Atlas, driving through the lush cedar forest and home to the Barbary Apes (who eagerly ate the apples we offered). We then found ourselves in the mountain village of Ifraine ("Little Switzerland) where we stopped for a coffee/tea and sweet. Our tour wasn't finished (and it's only day 3!). Days 4 and 5 found us in Fes where we had a tour of the old Jewish Quarter and the Medina where we wandered around the very colorful Souk, had an amazing lunch and explored the various artisan sections (I bought a beautiful scarf made from the Agave plant!). That evening two of us enjoyed a Turkish bath called a Hammam. Unfortunately our trip was winding down with Hicham taking us through the Rif Mountains and to the UNESCO Heritage City of Volubilis dating back to 3rd Century BCE. From there we found ourselves in the wonderful Blue City of Chefchaouoen where we had another great accommodation and delicious meal while listening to the evening Call to Prayer.

Our itinerary was busy and fulfilling and we were so grateful to Hicham who answered an incredible number of questions regarding the cultures and history of Morocco. He guided us through beautiful scenery, suggested unique and satisfying meal options, and helped us navigate the Moroccan ATM machine. The Riads were perfect, the hosts very accommodating, and our visit to the Sahara and luxury camp an experience we will never forget.

We had such a great time because of the personal care given us by everyone involved. My only regret is that I didn’t give Morocco Immersions more days so that we could have seen more!

Samir was awesome 👏🏼 to say the least. On time and quite knowledgeable as he should be.
Safe driver and paid his full attention to safety.

From the initial planning with Abdellatif, the Original Travels team was very prompt and responsive, tailoring our trip through Morocco to meet our needs. Our driver, Karim met us at the airport in Casablanca. He drove us from Casablanca to Fes, to the desert in Merzouga, through the mountains, and finally to our last stop in his hometown of Marrakesh. Karim shared his knowledge of the country while expertly navigating the roads and driving for long hours. We especially loved learning about the indigenous people of Morocco, meeting the village people, and driving through the mountainside. Karim was able to share a very authentic side of the country, showing us the road less traveled.

Other notable moments on our trip included our tour of Fes with Mohammed, our hike through the Dades Gorge with Nordeen, our camel ride in the Sahara Desert with Dawid, and our cultural/food tour in Marrakech with Hanan.

Six of us went on a private van with a driver. KimKim did an excellent job with arranging our experience.

Yassine was an excellent trip planner and was in contact with us frequently and responded to all of our questions promptly. Our driver, Said with MOBT, was one of the highlights of our trip. He was so engaging and kind. He went out of his way to make sure our Morocco trip was superb. He was available any time night or day once we got to our overnight locations and stopped along the ways to bring us treats, stops for coffee, food. He is a GEM.

The 14 day trip was absolutely spectacular. We started at Casablanca, then went to Rabat, Chefchouen, Fes, the Sahara desert (camel back riding and night in a tent), Ousseriea, to name a few. The Atlas mountains were amazing - we saw Barbary macaques amongst the pine trees! The people of Morocco are so nice and they are used to tourists.

I recommend all of these locations, they were all so different. KimKim was an excellent choice.

We booked this trip to celebrate our 16th wedding anniversary, and we were not disappointed!
Our personal driver/guide Samir was excellent, he picked us up from Casablanca airport and drove us around 6 cities, he was very polite, decent and helpful, he spoke perfect Arabic, French and English, he told us a lot of stories about Moroccan history, he suggested the best places to eat and shop. He even gifted us a box of traditional Moroccan sweets, his company was very enjoyable and he became our friend and we were sad to leave at the end of our trip and definitely looking forward to coming back again.
We loved our hotel Dar Jasmine in Fes, a beautiful Riyadh; the staff were super friendly and helpful, our guide in Fes Maryam was amazing, we enjoyed our tour with her a lot.
The desert get away in Agafya was a real treat and a memorable experience. And we can never forget Marrakesh with its bustling Jami’ Fna and wonderful friendly people.
We definitely recommend this company and would love to work with them again in the future in our next trip to Morocco.

Our 18 day trip to Morocco was a dream come through with the amazing support of Ali and Said. Samir, our dedicated driver, was not only very knowledgeable, but kept us on time and was very respectful and professional. Our visit to Casablanca, Rabat, Meknes, Volubis, Fez, Merzouga, Skoura, Quazazate, Marrakech and Essaouria were all fascinating, each with its own uniqueness. I had not heard of Original Travels before but their reviews were outstanding, and it has lived up to all my expectations. A Dream Come Through with the amazing support of Ali, Said, Samir, Hanan, Sharif and Yaseer. Thank you all!

Said planned a wondrrful trip for us.

Samir was exceptional as a driver and commentator on Morocco.

A very enjoyable trip.

We had an amazing time on our trip to Morocco, and highly recommend working with Hakim and the entire kimkim team. It was incredibly easy to plan the trip, and Hakim took great care to understand the types of experiences we were looking for during our trip, and ensured that they were included in our trip. From the time we landed, and throughout the 11 days we were in Morocco, we were in great hands with Mohamed, our driver. We thoroughly enjoyed all of our guides, and each of the places we stayed.

We hadn't traveled with Kimkim or Original Travels before, but the reviews we read were assuring. And the support we had prior to the trip from Said was great: responsive and reassuring. And then we had our first in-person meeting when we met our guide and drive with whom we would spend many hours each day for two plus weeks, Lahcen, a wonderful driver and guide, and even better person. Whether navigating narrow and crowded streets in the medinas, the traffic-clogged city streets, or the winding mountain roads, Lahcen was more than up to the task. And he was always there for us, greeting us at the airport as well as the meeting spots in each of the locations, and checking on us to ensure that we arrived safely at our riads.

In addition to Lahcen, we had tremendous guides, Mona in Rabat, Sharif in Fes, Hanan in Marrakesh, Youssef in the Sahara, Redwan in Ourika, Said in Essaouira. Mona was our first guide and gave us a wonderful orientation to Morocco as well as a great tour of Rabat. Youssef gave us two wonderful rides over the Sahara dunes, one on camel and another in a jeep. Hanan took us around Marrakech, including a wonderfully delicious food tour (great donuts!).

We also enjoyed delicious meals with several local families, in particular the Benhrahims in Fes, and Berber families in Er-Rissani and Ourika.

Our accommodations were more than clean and comfortable. In the cities our riads were in the heart of the medinas. In the Sahara we were at the Tiziri Luxury Camp. In the mountains our kasbahs were wonderful oases. At each we found very welcoming, friendly and accommodating staff, tasty meals, and great services.

Our one small regret is that we didn't spend more time at the Kasbah Bab Ourika. That was a serene spot with lots of hiking possibilities, but we were only there about 19 hours, therefore unable to take advantage of these hikes. Our accommodations at this Kasbah were exquisite.

Finally, while we never met Said at Original Travels, he provided wonderful support before and during our trip, including adjusting our itinerary to accomodate a scheduling error we made and to connect us with local guides for some continued touring after the Kimkim tour.

In all, thank you all for a wonderful 2-plus weeks adventure.

This was a nice tour. We were able to see the inside of a mosque and hear all about the cultural aspects of Muslim prayer.

Quick Tour of Casablanca with your Driver-Guide

Lachen showed us around Casablanca, dropped us off at a great restaurant (Restaurant Le Fleur, I believe) where we had our first tagine. Delicious. He brought us to the great Mosque where he had to finagle a tour for us since we arrived after the last tour had started a short time before we arrived. He then took us on a drive through Casablanca and let us off at a Medina in the older part of the city. We headed off to Rabat late afternoon.

Great driver. Always connected with our next guide or riad to ensure a positive experience.

The trip was amazing!!
Thank you so much to the Kim Kim team and Megan for helping us put this trip together.
Megan was super responsive and answered all the questions we had. Our stays were great and everyone we interacted with was so kind and made us feel comfortable.

Mohamed our driver was amazing - so kind, knowledgeable and respectful! He was one of the main reasons our trip turned out the way it did! We spent hours in the car together getting from one city to another. He took care of us, and he made sure we were comfortable and safe!

By far one of the best trips we experienced!!

Highly recommend Kim Kim for all your travel needs.

Megan was fantastic at helping us plan the perfect trip! She was very informative and replied in a timely manner, and put up with all of our back and forth!
Our trip to Morocco felt like a dream! We were picked up by our driver Mohamed at the airport and started our journey! Mohamed was amazing and such a gem! He was very knowledgeable and felt like family by the end of our trip! He was fantastic and put up with all of our craziness! We learned a great deal from Mohamed and would hands down recommend him as your driver/guide!
We started our trip in Casablanca and headed to Chefchaouen which was beautiful! Our accommodation wasn't our favourite but we made the most of it. The Blue City is beautiful and definitely worth the visit! We also had a day trip to
Akchour Falls which is beautiful and we were able to swim near the falls!
We then headed to Fes and stayed at Riad Farouzi Fes which was AMAZING! This place will always hold a special place in my heart based on the service we received! Badar was amazing and make our stay extra special! We were celebrating my birthday later in the trip but they surprised me with music and cake upon our arrival and it's a special memory I'll always cherish! The hospitality was amazing and the riad is beautiful and spacious! We felt like royalty! We did a walking tour with another guide named Mohammed who was very knowledgeable and we learned a lot!
We then headed to Merzouga which was magical! Our stay in the Sahara felt like a dream come true! The sunset camel ride was unbelievable and our guide Hassan made the camel ride memorable! Hotel Cafe du Sud was an amazing tent experience and we were welcomed by friendly faces and service!
We then headed to Ouarzazate and stayed at Les temple des Arts which was very luxurious and beautiful! We had a slight issue with our room that was handled right away with no hiccups and we were treated like royalty and it was a lovely place to wake up to on my birthday!
We finally then embarked to Marrakech which was better than I could have imagined! We stayed at Riad Karmela which was beautiful and was fortunate to get the best room in the Riad with a balcony overlooking the courtyard! The staff at this Riad were remarkable and was a great highlight from our trip!
Kim Kim/Megan were very kind to throw in a surprise motorbike sidecar tour of Marrakech which was another highlight of our trip! It was very neat to see the city this way and a memory I will always treasure!

This is probably the best trip I've ever been on, which says a lot coming from someone who enjoys travelling quite often! I want to thank Megan for her services, and I especially want to thank Mohamed our driver, without him, our trip would not have been as memorable as it was, and I'll always remember our conversations during our long drives! We're now his favourite crazy Canadian girls! :)

Our trip was arranged perfectly with all the activities and places we wanted to include from the start. The people, food, rooms and adventures were all amazing. Our driver, Faissal, who we had with us for the full 15 days was the best driver in Morocco! He helped with everything along the way, hand picked our other city and hiking guides for various daily activities we had along the way. He was available 24/7 for anything we needed and was immediately responsive to any questions or needs we had. He also was able to recommend where to get various arts and crafts items for the best price and that were of the highest quality. Not only was he the best driver in Morocco, but he has become a friend for life now.
