Khawla Elidrissi

I'm Khawla, I organize trips in Morocco, originally from Dades and now living in Marrakesh, I’ve grown up between calm landscapes and vibrant city life. And with that I work on giving you a rich and full experience .

My goal is to handle the logistics and the flow so that you can simply be present with the flavors and traditions of my country.

What places and activities do you specialize in?

"designing itineraries across Morocco, that includes cultural and historical experiences, nature and landscape, city explorations, local food experiences, and carefully selected activities that reflect how travelers want to experience my country. "

How did you get involved in travel?

"I came into travel through curiosity then it made sense.
I realized early on that I have a natural sense for organization and flow, and that shaping journeys feels intuitive to me .

"

Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.

"Every summer, I return to my hometown in Dades to enjoy its starry nights, wander through the gardens and fields, and pick fresh fruit . It’s also where I reconnect with longtime friends and revisit childhood experiences, These visits are always meaningful and memorable."

From the beginning this was such a good choice! Kimkim effortlessly created an itinerary based on my needs and timeline.
My driver/general guide Ali was simply awesome 😎. The local guides were all great as well; providing knowledge and understanding about their “areas” that made the tour so much more immersive.
I really don’t have anything negative to say here. This was a totally professional and customer service experience from start to finish. Read more

This was a perfect option for the first night after spending 22+ hours traveling to Morocco. I simply crashed out and woke up refreshed. It was clean and the service was great

I can't recommend Kim Kim enough!! Khawla was an amazing trip planner! Our guides were all great and the patience that Khawla showed while I was trying to plan (and change) our trip was wonderful. She always responded quickly - even with the time delay and really listened and helped us to craft a custom vacation at a good price. Read more

Front desk staff was nice - restaurant (breakfast) didn't even say good morning and house keeping was non existent.

If hiking to you is walking directly behind someone else, this is for you. This stop was a tourist trap.Not worth it in my opinion. Lunch by the river was an instagram photo op - not worth it.

Nice, personable - he took us on another walk, away from the crowds and let us have a bit longer time in nature.

walking butt to butt up to the waterfalls that were just okay -

Food
The best food on the trip (IMO) was eating at the local's house. Delicious and such a unique experience.
Guides, Drivers and Staff
Our guide was personable - there was a bit of a language barrier (that's on us) but he safely navigated us up and down the mountain, even though I brought the wrong shoes - hiking boots would have been better than tennis shoes.

Nothing beats walking from your hotel

Our drive Ahkmed (sp? ) was delightful. He was always timely and cheerful even though he wasn't eating during Ramadan - I think I would get grumpy... We were never concerned about our safety while traveling with him and even fell asleep a few times in the van.

We skipped the experience to have more time in Essouria.

Thank you so much for your kind words, Christy! I enjoyed working with you to create your trip, and I am so glad everything came together beautifully.

I also appreciate your honest feedback; I have already shared those details with our team and we will contact the hotel in Essaouira to make sure this is addressed.
