Mohamed El Asely

I was born and raised in a small village in the Atlas mountains, one of the places where we welcome our travellers.
Making trips was my way. Travel is for me the best way to open up to the world, to others. I am delighted to share this incomparable wealth of my dear country Morocco: between the national parks and the smile of children, the beautiful beaches and the typical dishes, not to mention the folk excursions, all travellers come back with nostalgia for Morocco, the kingdom of wonders.

What places and activities do you specialize in?

"Imperial cities, Atlas Mountains, Sahara desert and Coastal regions.
Outdoor hiking, cultural tours, community projects, Outdoor adventures, Family Vacations, Local life, custom-made trips."

How did you get involved in travel?

"I have always loved traveling since I was little. Over time I have traveled through several regions of Morocco and I fell in love with them. Unequaled biodiversity, a smiling and welcoming population and the varied landscapes of our kingdom inspired me to project myself into the field of tourism. Today I wish to make discover to all, the splendour of Morocco."

Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.

"The most memorable trip I have ever had was when I was 20 climbing one of Morocco's highest peaks (M'goun summit 4072m), there i have observed the majesty and fascinating beauty of the Atlas Mountains range, as well as the legendary hospitality of the local populations. I have also witnessed how tourism participates in developing the mountain regions in my area, It was then when I had a great interest in working in tourism, with passion and love! "

Landed in Casablanca and met up with our driver Tarik. First stop the Hassan II mosque. The only reason for our stop in Casablanca was to see the mosque firsthand. Hindsight though, it might be worth a day to explore the city. The tour of Hassan was worth every minute of our time. Absolutely beautiful to say the very least.

After our tour we continued to the city of Rabat. Was not at all what we expected. It is one of the cleanest cities we have ever visited. Quite amazing. Our Riad was also excellent, and the location was perfect. The next morning, we had a private tour of the sights of Rabat with Hassania. The tour was informative, and we received a full array of the important sights with the capital city including the Kings palace. Some of the architecture was very modern as well including the Mohammed IV tower and the Grand Theater. Truly remarkable.

During the afternoon, we trekked onto the next stop of Chefchaouen the blue city. We checked in to our hotel the "Dar Jasmine". This boutique hotel was perched atop a significant hillside, and there were approximately 300 steps to reach the top. A little daunting, although the view of the city was breathtaking and worth the climb. The city itself is very quaint and charming. We explored the small streets and restaurants.

The next day, we had a lovely drive through the Moroccan countryside heading to Fes. The following morning, we had a four-hour private tour with Sharif. Visiting The Royal Palace, Mellah, Al-Qarawiyyin: The World's First University and some local artisans of pottery and the likes. The highlight of course was wandering with Sharif through the tiny alleyways and streets in the souk. Again, an amazing experience seeing what the vendors have to offer. Pretty well everything including the kitchen sink.

That afternoon we were afforded the luxury of a massage and Hammam at our Riad. It was quite the experience. Never had my body exfoliated with coffee grinds. It was exhilarating.

The following day we endured an eight-hour drive form the mountains to the desert. On our way for a camel trek and sunset in the Western Sahara Desert. This was without question one of the highlights of our trip. The camels were amazing. Very well cared for, and exceptionally intelligent. Fortunately, just prior to our arrival it had rained slightly which compacted the sandy desert top layer. It darkened the colour of the sand slightly which made for some incredible photos. After our camel trek to the spot where we watched the sunset, we decided to take the 4X4 to the Tiziri Camp. Quite the exciting drive with our experienced driver.

The camp was pretty cool. The tents were quite large and comfortable. That evening we enjoyed an awesome traditional dinner with tajine's and all. In the morning, we rose at the crack of dawn to catch the sunrise. Again, truly remarkable. Overall, we had two exceptionally long days but worth all the pain by far.

The next leg of our journey took us to Boumalne Dades and Aït Benhaddou. The drive afforded us to see the many Oasis nestled within the valleys of the desert mountains. The sights were amazing. My wife was hoping to see the festival of roses, but by the time we made it was unfortunately over already. We drove through the "valley of a thousand Kasbahs". When you think about this, a Kasbah is a military fortress. Today, these Kasbahs serve as small communities within each area. The very essence of community is quite apparent. Something we found right throughout the country. Especially in the areas away from the big cities.

Next stop, Marrakesh. We spent 4 days in this vibrant city. The first day, we had a morning tour with Hassania enabling us to get a feel for the surroundings. The Souks in the ancient Medina were incredible and a little daunting as we could see how easy it would be to get lost within the alleyways. That evening we embarked on a second tour with the same guide Hassania. This tour was focused on food within the market and souks. We visited several different food vendors - restaurants. What really stood out was how much food was prepared for us. You must bring an appetite to this tour. The range of food consisted of homemade traditional soup, donuts (three generations of ownership), snails in the market and chicken and lamb prepared in an underground smoker - barbecue at Chez Lamine. All so very tasty.

Next morning, once again up well before dawn. We are to embark on a sunrise hot-air balloon ride. Now for someone that is terrified of heights, I thought it may have been an issue. Once we got in and up and away it was no problem whatsoever. Our pilot was a definite expert in his craft of navigating huge balloon. The vistas and scenery were breathtaking. Certainly, a must do for anyone. It was an incredible experience and the photo opportunities endless.

That same afternoon, we were transferred by our trusty driver Tarik to "La Maison L'Arabe. A prestigious hotel where they conduct Moroccan cooking classes. We cooked a tajine dish, learned how to make a rose from the peel of a tomatoe, and prepared a couple of different Moroccan salads. It was so much fun, and I must admit it was all very tasty. With a full belly and new skills, we went back to our riad to rest.

The next morning, off to the airport for final leg of our trip.

In summary, I would highly recommend KimKim to any travellers that want a worry-free experience. The ease of all aspects of our trip can be attested to the professionalism of the staff at KimKim especially including the on-site staff of Original Travels (Said and Mohamed).
All the accommodations, tours and the guides were first rate. One thing I must point out, our driver for the two weeks, Tarik was nothing less than amazing. He took our safety first. He was engaged with our entire group of four. He ensured our itinerary was followed to the letter. He was accommodating when we wanted to make slight changes. He was so engaging and helpful with every aspect of the trip. His communication to us with respect to timing for pick ups and drop offs was excellent. He never pressured us whatsoever. We cannot say enough about the way he treated us. He will be missed.

The only real downside to all of this is we were perhaps a little too ambitious with our itinerary. This was absolutely no fault to KimKim or Original Travels. This is solely on us. Seeing that this was our second trip through KimKim we will take that away as a positive for our next trip.

Dear Hy,

Thank you so much for your review and for taking the time to share your experience, we’re truly happy to hear that you had an outstanding trip overall! We also really appreciate the detailed tips you've shared for future travelers, these insights are incredibly helpful.

Just to clarify one point you mentioned — the travel times listed on the itinerary reflect the estimated driving distance only and do not include stops for sightseeing, meals, or breaks, which can naturally extend the total travel time. We’ll make this clearer for future itineraries to help with expectations.

Regarding the dinner with the local family, thank you for sharing your thoughts on this. The experience is indeed centered more on the cultural exchange and authenticity — a unique opportunity to connect with a local family, learn about their way of life, customs, and traditions in a home setting. It’s different from dining in a restaurant, as it’s the experience and hospitality that are the highlights, more than the meal itself.

We're always looking to improve and will take all your feedback into account to make the experience even better for future guests. Wishing you many more meaningful journeys ahead!

Warm regards,
Mohamed

Mohamed was a pleasure to deal with in arranging our trip. He was extremely responsive. For the most part, we are very pleased with the itinerary he came up with that we worked on together. In retrospect, we would have made one small change only and that was where we spent NYE. The trip was very well planned.

The only issue we had was the choice for some of the places we stayed. Star ratings are not necessarily consistent with North American ratings.

When we were in Morocco, Said was our contact. Once again, Said was very responsive and caring. We had a few glitches here and there with specific bookings and changes. Not all were solvable but Said did what he could and where something couldn’t be fixed he was concerned that we were satisfied with whatever resolution he could find.

Overall, we had an excellent trip and the service we received, particularly from Ayoub, was a big contributors to that experience.

We loved our desert adventure around Merzouga. The camp staff were excellent and took great care of everything, making our stay enjoyable. Although we skipped out on camel rides, visiting the lagoon was fascinating. This part of the trip was a highlight for us.

Hey Lillian,

Thanks so much for the great feedback! I’m really happy to hear that you had a fantastic time, and I’ll be sure to pass on your compliments to Reda. He really is a gem!

I’ll also make a note about the stairs at the Fes hotel, so it’s clear for future guests. And we’ll definitely look into offering a Spanish option where possible, even if it’s not available all the time.

Appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts, and I’m glad the trip was a success overall!

Best,
Mohamed
