This is the 2nd trip we've booked through KimKim. It allowed us to access the best of the best in local companies. We considered a few different tour companies, but KimKim's connection to Morocco Immersion Tours & Adventures won out, and we can't be happier about it.

Leaving Morocco after just 10 short days was incredibly difficult! We’ve traveled the world extensively, but this trip, meticulously crafted by Morocco Immersion Tours & Adventures, stands out as one of our most cherished experiences.

Before embarking on this journey, KimKim allowed us to Zoom with owners, Sharon and Abdou, and coordinator Nihad. We exchanged ideas and expectations, and the trip they organized exceeded our wildest expectations. Nihad kept us updated throughout the planning process, making adjustments and ensuring that we had everything we needed for our private two-couple vacation.

We travelled all over Morocco - Casablanca to Rabat to Meknes to Fes, Merzouga to Boumalne Dades, and finally onto Marrakesh, with so many places in-between. We even crossed the Atlas Mountains twice.

Morocco is a unique and intricate country, but our trip truly came alive thanks to our exceptional driver and guide, Abdelhadi Oulaid (Abdel). His care, attention to detail, humor, and knowledge made this experience unforgettable. Sharon and Abdou aptly describe their company as a family enterprise, and while Abdel may not be blood, he made the four of us feel like part of his family.

All the hotels and riads we stayed in, carefully selected by Morocco Immersion, were magnificent, especially the Eden Boutique Hotel in Dades.

Throughout our Morocco Immersion trip, their hand-picked, specialized guides led us on an enriching journey of learning and discovery. Exploring with these guides and Abdel, we were introduced to a vibrant tapestry of Moroccan culture and people. The Amazigh, the indigenous Berber people, exude warm hospitality, kindness, and generosity.

Choosing highlights is an arduous task, but the golden sands of the Sahara, the chaotic yet captivating allure of Fes and Marrakech, the tranquil beauty of the Atlases and Dades Valley, and Abdel’s infectious humor and genuine care all stand out. Owner, Abdou, met us in Dades with a heartfelt embrace and personally guided us through the bustling market. He led us on a winding, historical walk through an old kasbah and brought us to a private home where we were warmly welcomed with tea and lunch. Our hosts, two sweet Amazigh women, used our market purchases, and prepared the most delectable couscous of our entire trip.

Despite the vast distances we covered and the numerous places we visited, Abdel’s exceptional care and attention to detail ensured that our trip was an absolute delight. He went above and beyond, escorting us to evening activities, fulfilling every request, and ensuring our safety and well-being at all times.

Morocco Immersion truly excels in providing an immersive experience. Sharon and Abdou’s expertise, extensive connections, and remarkable ability to coordinate complex activities seamlessly throughout a tight itinerary are truly impressive. Thank you, KimKim for partnering with them!

Ayoub was our guide/driver for the full trip and he was everything we could have hoped for. His positive attitude always added to the day. Ayoub helped us see unique sights along the journey and even made our long travel days engaging and interesting. It was genuinely wonderful to have everything scheduled and outlined for us. We felt like we could turn our planning brains off and just enjoy the sights and culture of the regions.

Our city guides, Sharif in Fes and Sellam in Marrakesh, were knowledgeable of the history and showed us around to many of the local hot spots. It was great having an official guide for half day tours.

We had a great time and thank everyone involved in the trip!

We planned a 15 day trip for our family group of 4 adults with Sharon's help. She helped put together an itinerary that would suit our group. Our overall experience in this trip was wonderful and we learned so much about the Amazigh (Berber) culture and traditions and about the history of Morocco. The warmth of the welcome we got felt special - and we got this from all the people whom we interacted with: our tour manager, the drivers and the staff at the Riads where we stayed. We wanted cultural immersion and indeed that was what we got.

A highlight was our "day with the locals" in Boumalne Dades, where we had Abdou Idrissi (owner of Moroccan Immersion) as our very knowledgeable guide to Berber culture, architecture, life, cultivation and irrigation. It was a treat to be in the kitchen with our hosts Malika and Khadija as they prepared a tagine and couscous in the traditional way. They and their children were so open and welcoming and we surprised my husband with a birthday cake. Definitely the most unique birthday he has celebrated!

Each of the cities we visited gave us a chance to experience medieval towns by staying in Riads in the Medinas of these towns. Our local guide Mohammed in Rabat, a different guide named Mohammed in Fes, and Salaam in Marrakesh were all excellent - knowledgeable and personable.

While in Fez we found out that our wonderful tour manager and driver, Salaam could not accompany us for the rest of the trip, due to circumstances outside anyone's control. We cannot say enough about Salaam as a guide and chaperone for our trip: he is fun to be with, incredibly knowledgeable about history, architecture, culture and more and he made sure we were comfortable as we made our way through our first three stops. To Moroccan Immersion's credit, they made sure that they had good drivers for us at short notice in a busy season, so there was no interruption in our programming. Even though he could not be with us for the rest of the days of the trip, he kept track of where we were, communicated with the drivers we had and made sure things went well for us. Abdou was of course, in the background, making sure things went well.

The other drivers we had were very good but they did not have the same level of knowledge and ability to guide and inform us as Salaam did. This did impact our tour experience - and we understand that it was because of something beyond anyone's control.

Our favorite stop was as Kasbah Tiziri in the Valley of the Roses. Our hosts Michelle and Hussein were wonderful and gave us delicious food and their own insights into life in Morocco. The Kasbah has a beautiful garden, has been modernized beautifully while maintaining a traditional identity.

All along we had beautiful drives - between Rabat and Fez, Fez to Merzouga and then from the desert camp in Merzouga to Marrakesh. There had been rain after a four year drought and the countryside was green (except of course near the desert area). We got to experience spectacular views as we drove through the low, the mid and the High Atlas mountains (many peaks with snow). Our drivers negotiated the challenging drives smoothly and safely.

We ended by spending a day in Essaouira which was a nice relaxed ending to our trip in this charming seaside town.

We covered a lot of ground, physically, and learned a great deal during our trip all while experiencing a feast for the senses and a sense of warmth and welcome!

The little museum of Berber clothing, ornamentation and life was also gorgeous. The Anima gardens are a bit outside the city but were worth a visit for another unique garden which incorporates colorful artwork and sculptures. It had a good outdoor cafe which was a good and relaxing lunch spot.

We had a guided tour of a kasbah which involved also understanding cultivation inside a kasbah. This road is spectacular and the kasbahs are amazing to see - the way in which they mimic and blend into the countryside is interesting. Ourzazate was interesting with an entertaining tour guide of this big movie studio where many movies were filmed from westerns to historical and biblical movies. At Ait el Benhaddou we were dropped off at the wrong place to enter - this necessitated crossing a stream on stepping stones. When we contacted our driver he came back and got us to a bridge which seemed to be the more normal way to enter. Lack of signage and aof guide at this site made it less enjoyable.

Our driver Mohammed was the nicest man but perhaps was not someone who usually functioned as a guide. He did his very best, since he had been assigned to us at short notice. Getting to the hotel on a rainy night (not usual in a desert region for sure) was a challenge and it was a good thing we had phones with service so we could help with online maps and navigation. Next morning we visited Rissani, a kasbah, and also enjoyed the Gnawa musicians. All enjoyable.

Mohammed, our guide for Fes, was the best site specific guide we had. He grew up in the medina there and seemed to know everybody. This was an extensive tour, which took us to a great viewpoint for a panoramic view of Fes, and also included the palace, the medieval university and the madrasa as well as a visit to the jewish quarter and a synagogue, also the souk. The famous tanneries where leather is dyed was interesting also. We also got to see how the tiles for the amazing tile work were made. We really enjoyed our guide and the tour!

We had this tour on the morning before we drove to Chefchaouen. We were a bit tired the first evening and just enjoyed walking around a bit on our own. The next morning we had a wonderful tour with our guide (so sorry not to be able to pull up his name). We also visited the ancient necropolis of Chellah where we got a sense of what an amazing city it must have been. We also got to see the amazing black and white storks who have built enormous nests. We had requested a visit there and it has a history going back to the Phoenicians and the Romans prior to being used by Muslim rulers. Spotting the stork nests became a feature of our whole trip - they often they build nests at the top of a mosque.

When you know you are going to spend 15 days traveling more than 1000 miles in a vehicle you tend to be a little apprehensive about the person you are going to spend time with. He was personable, an excellent driver and more than fulfilled his role as tour manager by connecting with each city tour guide, riad or hotel to make the process seamless for us. Also, when necessary, he ardently advocated for us. Our favorite places to visit were Chefchaouen, Merzouga (Sahara Desert) and Dades. I indicated to Nihad I wanted a high end experience and the riads, botique hotels and the camp in the Sahara she selected were all excellent. Would highly recommend.

We were very happy with all aspects of our Morocco trip facilitated by Morocco Immersion. Maryem, our local specialist, was always responsive and informative, and our pre-trip Zoom with the agency head, Sharon, was very helpful. We were also grateful for the advice sheet, especially tipping hints. A good driver/tour manager is crucial to a successful tour, and ours (Abdessamad or Samad) was superb. He was always cheerful, on time, and very knowledgeable; his driving excellent, and his English sufficient, if not fluent. Our guides were uniformly on time and informative; the Fes guide (Sayyid), an American citizen returned home, was outstanding.
Now for more specifics on our tour plan. We liked staying in riads, and all were good. In Rabat, Riad Kalaa was atmospheric, though the shower sometimes only gave cold water. We really liked the Chellah Gardens (an alternative to the closed Royal Palace). The Al Makan in Fes had an excellent location and helpful staff (esp. Zakariyah). The high point of the medina tour there was the Al-Attarine madrasa.
We had a long but interesting drive down to the Sahara through the Middle Atlas mountains. It rained most of the way and we arrived to a torrential downpour in the desert, but we did get to see the sunset and we enjoyed “glamping” overnight. I took a nice walk in the dunes early the next morning. We then drove to Tinghir and the Dades Valley, which was beautiful as promised. We had a short tour of the city due to the earlier rain, and our (male) guide was also the rug seller at the women’s co-op (we saw no women there), which had been recommended to us by Morocco Immersion. There was a big choice of carpets; I got one we really like, and I assume it was cheaper there than in a big city, but I took their word and didn’t bargain anywhere else. We liked the Tiziri Kasbah riad there, and it had an exceptional view from the roof.
We then crossed over to and through the magnificent High Atlas mountains, reminiscent of our own Colorado Rockies. They were a literal high point of our trip. We spent our last days in Marrakech at the pleasant Riad Nesma, very centrally located and quiet but our room was small. We found the Bahia Palace and Madrasa Ben Yousef impressive, as were the medina and central square Jamma el-Fna, though the latter were a bit overwhelming. We also enjoyed the Majorelle Gardens, despite the crowd. We visited the lovely Ourika Valley our last day, and were happy to dodge the weekend crowds; we liked seeing the Anima Gardens on the way back, and I found a hammam refreshing the day before we flew home.
Again, kudos to kimkim and Morocco Immersion for a wonderful trip.

The Riad Nesma Suites & SPA in Marrakesh was incredibly centrally located, right on the alleyway into Jamaa El Fna, which was fantastic. Despite being in a bustling area, it was amazingly quiet, at least in our room. However, the space was a bit cramped; there was just enough room for the bed and our belongings.

Kasbah Tiziri, on the way from the Sahara to Marrakesh, was fantastic. The location and the view from the roof were amazing, and a lot of guests we met there had really positive things to say about it as well.

Our Morocco vacation was amazing and memorable! Our driver/guide Faissel was ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ He made our vacation run smoothly and was thoughtful, easy to be with and made sure my husband, son and I had everything we needed! We would never have been able to have the vacation we did without Faissel!!
The whole Kimkim experience was excellent and I look forward to using them to plan another vacation.
The private tours, accommodations and recommendations were all on point. We really had a wonderful time!

I just concluded a 10-day trip in Morocco, the itinerary and actvities were organized by Ali and then supported by Said. Overall I had an awesome experience as we traveled from Marrakech to the Merzouga desert areas followed by visits to Fes, Tangier, Rabat and eventually, Casablanca. Each place had their own distinct character and culture. Our local guides were fanstastic and I learnt a lot about the Moroccan history and they ways of life. I do have to mention the delicious Tangia and Tagine preparations; the likes of which I have never experienced before. A special mention about our driver, Rachid. I travel a lot and have worked with many travel tour operators, guides and drivers. Rachid is exceptional at what he does. Not only he is a great and more importantly, a safe driver, he went above and beyond his job and took care of every requirement of ours. I have to mention an incident where our vehicle suffered damage on account of flooded road conditions on our way to Merzouga desert. It was past sunset and all of us were worried about getting stranded in the middle of nowhere. Rachid organized the locals to get a hold of a mechanic and with the help of ordinary citizens managed to get our vehicle to a driveable condition. What was the most important aspect of this episode was the calmness and control that Rachid demonstrated. I did not see him getting flustered or in panic; he calmly went about the process of getting the vehicle restored. I and all others in my group were really impressed by this.

We canceled the guide tour of Fes and visited the city for 3 days by ourself.
The half a day tour of Rabat went well as our guide was professional and engaging.
Majid booked the desert camp : as soon as we arrived at the camp, we immediately realized that the camp was not the one we booked ( we were supposed to be in a luxurious camp for a night and we end up in a smelly, dirty etc. camp) We immediately sent a message to Majid to get a reimbursement of 300 $ as this was the difference in price between the 2 accommodation. We got the reimbursement the day after.
Our young driver for 2 weeks Moad was pretty good and we had pretty good time with him !!

We spent 9 days in Morocco and the itinerary was planned superbly. I am so happy we chose Kimkim for this trip - would not only use them in the future but will also recommend them to friends and family. Our local guide Ayoub was incredible - super knowledgeable, friendly, and kind. He was amazing with our 10 year old son - they became quick friends on the trip. We always felt very safe and taken care of. Our guide in Fez (Sharif) was also great - took us to see all the major highlights and just gave us an over-all fun experience.

A couple of very minor things - when we stayed in the oasis overnight, the guide there could have been a little bit better. It sounds like it's still a developing travel destination, but it would be super helpful to have a guide who spoke better English. There was a bit of a communication/understanding barrier, but again, just a small nit pick.

Food tour of Marrakech was definitely one of the highlights - would highly recommend it as part of any itinerary.

Thank you Ali, Said and the whole Kimkim team and guides for an unforgettable experience.

I didn't have to worry about the timings, how to get places because he was on top of it. This let me enjoy the trip with my kids instead of stressing over timetables and calling guides.
One day, my daughter was pretty sick on our way to the Sahara dessert where we were to stay the night. Oussama elected to stay in a tent, in the dessert also, in case my daughter got worse and needed help.
Our guides were also fabulous. Sharef, in Fes, was patient and full of knowledge. We were passing a veterinary clinic set up for the working animals in Fes. I asked to stop by there. He said sure and we spent an hour there learning about their mission and learned the head vet went to the same school I did!
A cooking class was set up for us in someone's home- this was my son's favorite experience.
The hotels we stayed in were perfect.
I would definitely contact KimKim again to help me book another trip as we had local guides, met locals, were invited into their homes and were taken care of.

I am the 11 year old. The things I loved were when sharef took us to the medina in fes, he let us go into any place we wanted to. Also he took us to the best restaurants, an even took us to a place where they show you carpets. I also loved the old city in fes because all of the houses were beautiful. Also our amazing driver Oussama he took us everywhere and he took us to get lunch at places everywhere. Also he is one of the nicest drivers I have ever met. Thank you everyone.

This was the best experience of the trip, for me. Crowded, complex alleyways crammed with shops of all kinds, tourists, locals and omnipresent motorbikes; diverse and distinctive smells (incense, bakery, fruit, motorbike exhaust, screaming kids and bleating animals. Reminded me of India, but less crowded and fewer people.

We liked the agenda and all the places that were arranged to see and do. We loved Morocco, people were great and food was good too. Our guide/driver, Ilyace, was excellent and he had very good command of English language which we greatly appreciated. We strongly recommend his services. All other guides were good too, Hamid at Volubilis and Sharif in Fez were really knowledgeable and informative. Saleh (Marrakech), Ashraf (food tour) and Hassan (Essaouira) were also good. We were sorry we had too many samples before we got the main course and we could not enjoy it as much, but it was very good food tour. We also enjoyed the visit to Yasmin’s family and dinner. As for the tour of Hassan II Mosque, group tour guide was not really that good, they need better tour guides. As for the hotels, I assume they were amongst the best for their locations! Our favorites were Hotel Le Medina (Essaouira) and Lina (Chefchaouen) very high standards, we also liked Palais Sebban. The rest were acceptable but could make some minor improvements to the details. Our favorite city was Chefchaouen. In summary the trip a was very good experience and we appreciate all the help and planning by the team.

Thanks so much for your kind words and for sharing your feedback—we’re really glad to hear you enjoyed your time in Morocco overall! It’s such a special place, and it means a lot to us when travelers come away with great memories.

Totally understandable about Meknes. It’s been going through major restoration work over the last few years, and while it has a lot of historical charm, some of its highlights—like Bab Mansour—aren’t quite back to their full glory just yet. Hopefully, it will feel more complete as the finishing touches are wrapped up.

We also appreciate your thoughts on the riad in Fes and the airport hotel. We know the airport hotel isn’t anything exciting, but given the limited options close by, it’s really about convenience for early/late flights. With Fes, we especially appreciate the feedback, as we are not always able to visit all properties on a regular basis and rely on feedback from travelers to know if there is something we need to address.

Dar Al Madina Al Kadima
Fès

At Dar Al Madina Al Kadima, we seemed to be the only guests, and twice we found ourselves unable to exit because the door was locked. Once in the evening, around 6:30 PM, when heading out for dinner, and another on our day of departure. While it didn't affect us much, it could have been serious in case of an emergency.

Auberge Le Festival Todra Gorge
Aït Baha

Our stay at Auberge Le Festival Todra Gorge was a pleasant experience, although it was unexpectedly chilly due to the lack of heating. The place was very new and not traditional, but it was a unique experience aside from the cold.

Dar Yasmine
Tangier

The Dar Yasmine itself was very nice, but the proximity to the mosque was an issue for us. As non-Muslims, the calls to worship at 2 AM and 4 AM were too loud and disrupted our sleep.
