Hassan El Amrani

This trip was an unbelievable once in a lifetime experience that my mom and I got to experience together thanks to Hassan!
Ahmed was an INCREDIBLE guide / driver for our entire trip and the experience would not have gone as smoothly as it did if it wasn’t for him. He was incredible, thoughtful and knowledgeable.

We had the best time
Thank you!

Hassan was responsive and helpful in the planning phase of the trip and we were able to do everything we wanted including history, culture, activity, comfort and flexibility. We loved the customization inherent to this type of tour.

Our trip to Morocco was a blast - it's a wild, beautiful, culturally rich country. The whole team that we worked with (mostly Majid, Hassan, Hassan) were all top-notch. Great communication, well organized, flexible, accommodating, and knowledgable. They helped me organize an incredible engagement in the Sahara dessert that was so magical. Our driver, Hassan, made us feel safe while keeping us informed on the amazing cultures throughout the country. All of the accommodation and activities were fun, informative, and a once in a lifetime opportunity. Highly recommend a trip to Morocco!

We were met at the airport by Kahlid and from there it was nothing but first class service. Unfortunately I had had a foot injury, but Kahlid changed tactic from being our guide to my carer on a heartbeat. He arranged medical supplies - a moon boot - and trips to get X-rays and doctor’s appointments. He was unbelievably kind and concerned and nothing was too much trouble. He even arranged a tuk tuk to take me around the Medina! Whilst we did not complete our journey because we returned home early, what we did see of Marrakech was due to Kahlid’s kindness. He patiently sat in the waiting rooms while I had medical attention. I really can’t thank Kimkim enough because I know our driver was communicating with Hassan who shared his concern and helped arrange medical attention. For anyone to know they will be helped if they find themselves in health trouble, the level of assistance given to my husband and I was gold.

We reserved a 5-day trip from Fes to Marrakech in March for June 2025. We were very happy with all communication from Hassan up to the day before the trip. The car was spacious. Our driver/guide Khalid was very professional in every way. He drove carefully, respected speed limits and reacted promptly to traffic conditions. He is very knowledgeable and we appreciated his explanation in details about geography, history, traditions, etc. of Morocco.
Our day in Merzouga desert was well organized. My wife recognized her problem with vertigo (5 minutes on the camel's back) and tested her endurance by walking for one hour in the sand before getting in a car for the rest of the "camel ride".
All in all, we are very satisfied with the trip. 10/10 for the team + 12/10 for our driver/guide Khalid.
Thank you to all.

We were sceptical at first as we had never done a private trip before. Hassan is Moroccan and with just a bit of input as to our aspirations he put together a five day trip that exceeded our expectations several times over. From pick up at our hotel in Marrakesh to drop off at the airport, our driver Ismail was fantastic. His easy personality and humor made us feel relaxed. Immediately we knew we were in good hands. Ismail generously shared his knowledge of Morocco’s history as well as explaining to us about the lives of Moroccan people both in the past and today. He was thoughtful, suggesting rest stops for coffee and bathroom breaks, and stopping at places and sites that were not on the itinerary but close by and unique. One highlight was a hiking tour through traditional Berber villages with Mohammed, a local guide, ending at his traditional home and having lunch prepared by his family. The landscape, the kind and gentle people we encountered, plus the culture of Morocco made this trip truly memorable.

We had such an amazing time!
Everything was great and went very smoothly. Our driver/guide Hamza made everything seamless. Friendly, calm and constantly paying attention to any needs and details. I know Morocco so I was looking for an experience beyond the "standard tourist package". We got what we were looking for. Local guides were excellent especially Khalid, our guide in Fez. Our stays were at authentic locations, mostly beautiful Riads. Food was to die for and for our "en route" locations, Hamza made sure that they were safe and clean. Everyone was so welcoming. We felt immersed in the culture and nature and explored so many facets of Morocco. We are already planning to come back!
Thank you to the whole team and special thanks to Hamza!!
See you soon again, Insha'Allah!!

Simply put: this was the most amazing trip of my life. Hassan was super helpful, knowledgeable, and was great at listening to what we were looking for in a trip. He put together the most amazing package for us.

The hotels, restaurants, and tours were awesome. This was our first trip with a guide and itinerary, and what we realized is that it was so refreshing to not have to wake up and make a tonne of decisions as everything was laid out for us. We could then change the plans depending on our energy levels of the day.

And Khalid...our driver for 10 days. Wow. He was top shelf. His mannerisms, personality, friendliness, and kindness was beyond expectations. His knowledge of everywhere we went was unbelievable. He had a great sense of humor, answered all our questions, and swiftly became a member of our "family".

My absolute favorite, and bucket list item that I didn't know was a bucket list item until I did it, was riding a camel in the Sahara and staying in an amazing camp in the Sahara. Absolutely stunning and the #1 experience of my life (it knocked Machu Picchu / Amazon jungle off the top spot).

Fes and the market was an incredible experience as was the gorgeous and unique Blue City, Chefchaouen.

We chose to have two meals with Berber families, and both experiences were amazing. The food and hospitality was unmatched.

Morocco is stunning in beauty and I could not believe the diverse landscape as we traveled around it. I am thrilled with the route we took and wouldn't trade our experience for anything.

Thank you Khalid, for being a true ambassador for your country and hospitality.

Shukran 🙏

Our group of 6 (3 couples) just returned from an unforgettable 10 night trip to Morocco! I probably would never have attempted to organize a trip for the 6 of us to Morocco, but with Hassan's great communication and expertise in putting together an excellent itinerary and Khalid's help (our driver) in executing that itinerary, it was possible for us to see this beautiful country. And I'm so grateful we did.
Our trip took us from Tangier to Chefchouen, then to Fes and Merzouga, the Dades Valley, Skoura and finally Marrakech. The landscapes were much more varied than we had imagined and watching the scenery, and how it changed, from the inside of our car as we drove was incredible. I'm thankful we got a glimpse of the ways of the nomadic people in this region during our time. If we had only visited a big city like Fes or Marrakesh, we would have missed this. For example, we saw shepherds moving with their sheep or goats, the temporary homes they use, and some collecting water at a spring to be carried back by their donkeys.
Khalid, our driver, made sure to point out everything that was noteworthy so we didn't miss anything as we drove. He was a well of knowledge and taught us so much. And thanks to him we could relax and enjoy our time as he managed all the navigating and timing, as well as facilitating the hotel check-ins and city guides. He did a superb job and anyone getting him as their driver is very fortunate!
The highlight of our trip was our 2 nights in the desert staying at Tiziri campsite (which we rode camels to). Other highlights were the walking tour of Fes and the meals we spent with locals - both a dinner with a family in Fes and a lunch with Mohammed in the Dades Valley (after a very enjoyable 3 hr hike). L'ma lodge in Skoura had one of the most peaceful and beautiful gardens I have visited and by the time we arrived there (around day 8) we were thankful for this restful 'oasis'.
I would say our least favourite part of the trip was Marrakesh. It was our last stop and the busyness of the city felt a bit overwhelming. We did really enjoy our hotel, however - Maison Arabe. And we did a cooking class and Hammam in it which we'd definitely recommend.
If I could add a night or two I'd book a second night in Chefchouen, to enjoy the quiet tourist-free mornings and evenings, and a third night in the desert because it's simply amazing!

They held on to our passports for several hours the first night which made us a little uncomfortable. When we asked for them after a couple hours, they said they weren't done with them. This never happened at any of the other hotels so I'm not sure what caused the delay.

Sadly the palm trees in Skoura (around the hotel, not on its property) are all dead looking right now because of the drought. It was not how I imagined this lush oasis to be and I think travellers may want to know this in the future before deciding to visit this city.

The owner comes to each table at the first dinner to introduce herself and tell some of the story of the history of the property.

The gardens are probably the most beautiful gardens I've seen. There are countless areas set up to sit amidst the garden making it a very peaceful and quiet stay.

Hammam Spa & Massage in La Masion Arabe at 5 pm

Marrakesh

Overall a good experience. Didn't realize we'd be in a room with our friends while doing the hammam! Also, two of us had skin reactions after which took a number of days to heal. I don't think it was the fault of anything the spa used - probably just over sensitive skin. But something for people to consider before doing this if thorough exfoliation isn't something you're used to or have sensitive skin.

The Monkey Trail (3M Squared Loop Trail)

Midelt

Really just a place to stretch your legs. Not a noteworthy hike. Seeing the monkeys on the side of the road with their babies was fun though!

Transfer to Fes, Volubilis & Meknes

Morocco

This day was very long so I think driving straight to Fes and not stopping at Volubilis and Meknes would have been a better choice for us. Volubilis was interesting but it was just too much for a day.

Skoura – Ouarzazate – Ait Benhaddou – Telouet – Marrakech ( 5 Hour Drive)

Morocco

This was quite disappointing. There were so many tourists, souvenir stalls, and our guide gave us almost no information. His accent was extremely hard for us to understand. But he didn't speak very much. He spent most of his time on his phone or speaking to other tourists and jumping into their photos. I didn't learn anything about this place from the visit.

Did the ATV tour which was fun. Again, I would have loved a little introduction before we set off. Our guide did not speak English, so that was a bit challenging too, especially since there had been no intro.

Camel trek to your luxury camp

No instructions given. Just walk up to the camel and get on and off you go! I would have appreciated a little intro in order to feel more comfortable.

Lunch with a Moroccan Berber Family in Sahara Desert

Merzouga

We had berber pizza and a berber family owned restaurant. It was delicious and I'd recommend travellers go there for a great meal and nice hospitality. However this was a little different than we had expected. We thought we were going to a berber family's home and eating with them.

Guided Hike for 3 hours with your local treking guide No Drive

Skoura

Loved this hike. Giving it a 4 though because there seemed to be a bit of miscommunication as we thought we had asked to reduce it to 1.5 hrs and it ended up being the full 3 hrs. It was a beautiful hike and we were glad we had gone that long in the end, but would have brought more water/sunscreen if we knew the length. It also ended with a meal at our guides home which was fantastic and we were thankful for. However, again the communication was a bit off on this morning. We didn't realize we were having this lunch until right when we were leaving for the hike. And as we were asked after to pay for the lunch, it seemed odd we weren't made aware of it before hand. I still don't see it in our original itinerary either. So it felt like a bit of a surprise.

A cool sight to see. The most interesting thing was watching a nomadic woman collecting water from a spring at one end of the gorge. As for walking through cool rock landscapes though, the 3 hr hike we did later when we got to Boumalne Dades was more memorable.

We had a wonderful time in Morocco! Our guide, Khalid, was very knowledgeable and friendly. Our organizer, Hassan, was great at getting a trip itinerary together that catered to our needs and desires to see this beautiful country!
Thank you both for a wonderful experience
