Nihad Hammi

I am Nihad, your travel specialist here in Morocco. As a Moroccan born and raised in Tinghir, I bring a unique perspective to my role as a travel specialist. My deep connection to the rich cultural tapestry of Morocco, especially Tinghir, allows me to weave authentic and immersive experiences into your travel plans.

My goal is to create immersive adventures full of cultural richness and unique moments just for you. I enjoy crafting detailed itinerary that ensure your travels aren't just trips, but transformative experiences and unforgettable journeys.

What places and activities do you specialize in?

"From classic immersions to off-the-beaten-path adventures, we ensure each trip is a perfect blend of discovery and relaxation. Whether you're a history enthusiast, a nature lover, or a food connoisseur, we will customize your trip to meet your interests. Our trips include historical tours, cultural tours, hiking, trekking, cooking classes, local experiences, and much more! "

How did you get involved in travel?

"My journey into the tourism industry was inspired by my uncle, who worked in the same sector. Growing up, I was surrounded by tourists, fostering an early connection with the world of travel. After I got my baccalaureate, I decided to pursue my higher education in English studies. My eagerness to engage with native speakers and my childhood curiosity about other cultures only deepened my passion for tourism. "

Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.

"My most unforgettable travel memory was when a friend asked me to be their tour guide to Boumalne Dades, a region not too far from my home in Tinghir. Surrounded by the breathtaking landscapes and watching travelers marvel at the beauty of the Dades Valley was a game-changer. Their joy and curiosity fueled my passion for tourism even more. It was a defining moment that I'll always cherish."

Our first visit to Morocco was a thrill. Nihad made the planning so easy. I originally intended to travel with my brother & his wife, but he had to undergo surgery a month before our planned trip. Nihad easily substituted one of my friends in their place, which increased the price only slightly. We started in Marrakech (2 nights at the excellent Riad al Rimal), then traversed the High Atlas Mountains to Valley of Roses (2 nights at the stunning Kasbah Tiziri). We took a camel ride to the desert camp (Sahara Stars Luxury Camp) for 1 night, then went on to Fes (2 nights at the Riad Farouzi Fes). We flew back to Marrakech for 2 nights (again at the Riad al Rimal). We spent our last free day seeing the Jardins Majorelle (spectacular), the Museum of Berber Arts, and the Yves St. Laurent museum.

The high points: observing the traffic in Marrakech (wild!), our lunch with the locals in the Valley of Roses, the camel ride to the desert camp, the stop at the women's cooperative Berber rug shop, every city guide we toured with, and the people of Morocco, all of whom were so warm and welcoming. Kudos to Nihad, who always responded immediately to our questions. And of course Richad, our tour manager/driver, who was invariably pleasant, helpful, patient, and informative.

Riad al Rimal
Marrakech

I stayed at Riad al Rimal for 4 nights. The rooms were very clean, people in reception were warm & helpful, breakfast was extravagant. A lovely spot.

Authenticity & Character
Each room was beautifully designed.
Location
Close to the main square in Marrakech, although it took many tries to learn the route. Narrow alleyways!
Staff
Everyone was extremely helpful--they sent people with us to meet a taxi or to greet us when we returned from an outing at night. I was wrongly charged for a taxi ride that had been billed directly to the hotel; when they learned of the overcharge they refunded it immediately. Lovely people.

Kasbah Tiziri

This casbah is a gem. The outdoor spaces are magnificent, with gorgeous gardens & greenery. Many comfortable places to sit. Even the placement of the windows in the dining room framed perfect views of the countryside.

Michelle (Canadian), one of the 2 owners, was so welcoming. She was a wonderful storyteller, cook, & innkeeper. Hassan, the other owner, was hilarious. He stepped in & took care of anything that needed doing at the moment.

I stayed in the green room on the ground floor. While comfortable, the room was very dark. There were bedside lamps that didn't work. The shower was especially dark, with a wall-hung light fixture that also didn't work.

We loved meeting Ahmed, he was an excellent driver and we had real experiences, lunches with him at the Kasbahs.
We were a bit confused day of Ait ben Haddou at lunch, if we paid for it. It would be a help if its on the itinerary.
We loved meeting the Morrocan Immersion owner Abdul, who personally took us to a tour of Valley of Roses and
home-cooked kasbah lunch. We loved the experiences and endoured the long drives to get to our next destination.
Would recommend it to friends!!

My mother and I recently returned from an unforgettable 12-day trip through Morocco with Morocco Immersion, and we can’t recommend this experience highly enough. From start to finish, everything was seamless, meaningful, and beautifully organized.
Our driver and tour manager Ali was truly exceptional, a wonderful guide and even better person. His kindness, enthusiasm, and deep love for Morocco made every moment special. He ensured everything ran smoothly, filled each day with laughter, and introduced us to the country through his own genuine passion for its culture, people, and landscapes. By the end of the trip, it felt like traveling with a friend.
We were also fortunate to explore Fes with our local guide Rashid, who brought the city’s winding alleys, lively markets, and ancient monuments to life with fascinating stories. In Marrakesh, our guide Ali (different from our driver!) led us through the vibrant Medina, sharing layers of history as we walked, it truly felt like stepping back in time.
One of our most cherished memories was our sunset camel ride into the Sahara Desert, followed by a magical night at our desert camp, a once-in-a-lifetime experience we’ll never forget. Another highlight was visiting Boumalne Dades, where we learned to make traditional couscous and shared a meal with Ali’s family. Their warmth and hospitality were deeply touching and gave us a glimpse into the heart of Moroccan life.
Throughout the trip, we were continually amazed by the beauty and comfort of our accommodations, from riads filled with light and intricate details to stunning kasbahs surrounded by nature. A special mention goes to Kasbah Tiziri in Boumalne Dades, with its beautifully renovated interiors and incredibly kind owners and staff, and to Riad Chems Bleu in Essaouira, a true hidden gem with sun-filled rooms, a serene courtyard, and breathtaking views from the rooftop.
Every part of this journey reflected the care and authenticity that Morocco Immersion puts into their trips. It was an experience that combined culture, adventure, and heartfelt human connection. The kind of trip that stays with you long after you return home.

We had a wonderful stay at Riad Hicham, the perfect start to our trip in Chefchaouen. The staff were incredibly kind and attentive, making sure we were well taken care of throughout our visit. Our room was comfortable, spotless, and had everything we needed. Breakfast was delicious, with plenty of options to choose from. The rooftop terrace offered a beautiful view over the town square, a perfect spot to relax and people-watch. Overall, a lovely stay in an ideal location for exploring Chefchaouen on foot.

Sahara Stars Luxury Camp
Merzouga

We had an incredible stay at Sahara Stars Luxury Camp, a beautiful and scenic desert retreat. Our room was stunning, with thoughtfully chosen furnishings, attention to detail, and air conditioning for added comfort. The bathroom was clean and spacious, though the drainage was a bit slow, nothing that took away from the experience. The hospitality and service were wonderful, and both dinner and breakfast were delicious with plenty of options. The evening entertainment was a true highlight, featuring live music around the campfire under the stars. Waking up early to catch the sunrise was by far the best part. Walking into the desert and climbing the dunes to watch the first light was unforgettable. Sunset was equally magical, with comfortable lounge seating perfectly positioned to take it all in. All in all, a beautiful stay and easily one of our favorites from the trip.

In a word, amazing! From our caring and funny driver, Mohammed (who still insists his chicken lemon tangine is the best),
to a variety of craftspeople, which caused credit card “exercise “ to commence and packing conundrums to deal with when leaving if shipping was not included.

Probably the best thing to say about KimKim, its employees and the Moroccan people in general is they want to help you to have the best time you are capable of.
Between airplane issues and my mobility challenges due to the seemingly unlimited stairs and high step up into the transport vehicle provided for the week in Morocco, everyone went beyond what was expected. Hotel rooms were altered, luggage was “handled”, a stool was purchased for the van, and dozens of other questions were answered. Guides altered itineraries due to “less stairs this way.”

I have traveled extensively. My ruler for the success of a trip and a travel agency is “ Would I return to this country using the same process?” The answer for Morocco and KimKim is “Undoubtedly.”

Nihad was the one who curated our itinerary and was always available. Sharon also took the time to meet with me via Zoom so we can easily discuss our trip. Upon arrival, we were welcomed by our driver Rachid who was very pleasant and answered our questions and of course, a very skillful and safe driver. He coordinated with our Riad to meet us and help us with our luggages. Our Marrakech Medina Walking Tour Guide was Hassan and he was very knowledgeable and patient with our questions and waiting for us as we took time to take photos. We learned so much about the culture and the people. We had to switch drivers/guides the following day and it was Ahmed who took care of us the rest of the trip. He was a careful driver and with really good taste in music. We truly enjoyed his playlist. He truly acted like our concierge during our camel ride and dinner at Agafay desert as well as our dinner at La Boheme - a truly wonderful evening.
The rest of the trip was spent in Essaouira and Ahmed suggested places to eat and where to hang out for evening drinks. Afterwards, he really took care of us through our long drive to Casablanca for our return flight.
I also would like to mention Abderrahman who coordinated with us also as we transitioned between guides and drivers. Everyone was very accommodating and was always available for anything that we need. Highly recommended!

Would recommend this if you like a cozy place to stay that is near the souk.
