Orion Trek Voyages

Highlight, best part of our visit

Another highlight

Should not be using this guide - interested in nothing except selling us rugs in his ‘family’ shop.

Amazing place

Our chef Meryem was fabulous. We had such a fun time. And the food was incredible.

Marcos was an exceptional host. Best Riad of the three in my mind. Great overall staff and accommodations.

Rooms were smaller. Tough to even unpack in the location.

Great location, easy to find and be independent to get to the Souks.

The remaining two attendees cancelled this event as they had reservations at Rick's Cafe....a lifelong dream for one of them.

Redouane showed us during the 'driving tour' the highlights of Tangiers.

Excellent Tour with a great guide.

We ended up enjoying this more than we anticipated. Good guide and he shortened it for us making it a great day!

We had a great guide with great humor injected on this tour.

This was probably our weakest tour as the local gastronomy was not for weak hearted. I do think it occured on our last full day and day 13th of travel. The final meal with the local food items was a challenge. The guide did his best.

A highlight for our group. Great humor, empathy for all chef skills, great interaction with all guests AND staff. Super event.

The hotel is very dirty, carpets in the room where worn and very dirty as were the hall way carpets. The dining room where we had breakfast had food all over the floor that appeared to have accumulated over time. There were no towels in the room upon arrival and we had to request them.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Riad El Yacout. It was authentic and the whole staff team made us and our stay feel special. Beautiful interior, comfortable rooms and outstanding service.

Loved staying at the Riad Chergui. Wonderful staff, beautiful and peaceful property. Loved the pool area and having breakfast and the bar to relax and enjoy the quiet from the busy chaos of Marrakech. The rooms were spacious and well appointed. The common areas retain the charm and authenticity of their history.

Nice property in a great location. The location, staff and accommodations were all great.

Beautiful hotel but the AC was not working adequately in our room. I called the front desk 2 different times. Ended up having to sleep outside on the balcony which was not what I had planned for.

Incredible. Beautiful hotel, comfortable rooms, attentive staff, excellent restaurant.

Beautiful & great location.

Incredible experience. Very attentive.

Rooms were small but overall nice hotel.

Highly highly recommend this experience! We had a great time & the food we cooked was fantastic.

All of the hotels and riyads we stayed at were great (with the exception of Eden Roc in Oualidia) and each was unique in their own respect, so I would love to give all of them high marks, but since we started in Rabat I would say the Euphoriad set the tone for the whole trip. The room we had was wonderfully furnished and with mirrors all around - understandable considering it is named after the Daffodil flower - Narjis in Morocco. Everything was very comfortable, and I especially enjoyed the bathrobe as it had a hood, just like on the djellaba; first time I have ever seen a bathrobe like that and I wanted to take it home! The hotel was a riyad with the center open area, and beautiful tilework and artwork throughout. The dining area was very nice and the included breakfast was great, and small enough that you could share stories with your fellow travelers. It is also very well situated and is a riyad and Rabat a city I would like to visit again.

Thoroughly enjoyed visiting these ruins and learning more about the history of this area of Morocco.

Located within the medina was a great way to start the vacation. As a riad there are no outside windows but a great internal courtyard with fountain and garden

Great views over the blue city. Ideal watching the sun go down. This hotel is a top 168 step climb. Donot worry the porters are great

An amazing hotel just outside the media.

Surprisingly not my favourite

A typical city hotel, nothing special

Just an outstanding riad

Great introduction to Morocco

An interesting tour

A great introduction to the way of life in Marrackesh

The tour guide made the experience

This tour was OK

Miriam at Cafe Clock made this experience for us as we celebrated a landmark wedding anniversary

Always fun riding a camel in the sahara

The fishing port was great to see up close

The driver took the inland route

A fascinating drive

An incredible place

A great way to get out and experience totally different scenery. A great family host for lunch

A pleasant drive and stopping at the womens cooperative that explained how argan oil was interesting

Great experience the scrub certain loosens some dead skin.

A great way to finish the vacation

A lovely quiet riad not too far from the car dropoff point. Had the best viennoiseries for breakfast - really fresh and fluffy! Comfortable room and great bathroom. Enjoyed the rooftop and the lounging chair and table outside our room. Beautiful courtyard, airy and light. A great experience.

True glamping in the desert. Did not expect a real shower, bathtub and toilet. All with running hot and cold water. Very comfortable. Impressed with the food - catering out in the desert cant be easy and to provide such a variety of dishes for breakfast and dinner is a real feat. Food was delicious and fresh. Nice area after dinner to listen to music and look up at the desert sky. Would recommend at least two nights there. During the second day, we were booked for quad biking in the dunes and we were given the courtesy of a day room at the Nasser Palace (same ownership?), which had a lovely refreshing pool to dip and sit in till the afternoon expedition. This was a real treat. To just relax by a pool and have lunch to avoid the heat.

Did not expect such a lovely riad in the middle of nowhere! It was a welcome break from the long car drive to Marrakesh from Merzouga. Great hotel. Fabulous and extensive dinner buffet - to cater for all tastes. Huge variety of entrees and desserts. Staff very courteous. Rooms roomy and well appointed. Very quiet and peaceful.

Conveniently located, not far from the car drop off point. We had a lovely top floor room with a private outdoor balcony/rooftop space. Very comfortable and clean and cool. Thank goodness for AC!!! (it hit 40 degrees plus while were were there!) Staff were friendly and helpful. Easy to find and go to and from. Nice to sit on the ground floor in the courtyard and just chill out. Quiet and relaxing.

Enjoyed our tour immensely with local guide. The medina is such a labaryinth - you really need a local to take you through. Such a special medina. All those different sections, spices, butchers, herbalists, tanneries! Not to mention the madrassas, mosques and other historic places.

Highly recommend at least two nights in the desert. So special. Nothing like it. Had beautiful weather day of arrival and a leisurely camel walk into the sunset. The second day we experienced a sand storm - so really appreciate the landscape and the way it can change so suddenly.

With this tour you really appreciate the landscape and the difficulty of travelling over it. It's a bit awkward or strange to visit a Berber village - yes, a little touristy, but you do get an appreciation of the hardships of living in this harsh environment, and understand why some have chosen to live in a village instead of continuing life as a nomad.

Son and hubby loved the experience of zooming up and down the dunes on the quad bikes. They are heavy and quite stable. I'm a total wuss. So relieved when the tour guide took over for me. Got to appreciate the vastness of the desert. Goes on till through to the horizon. Quite amazing.

This was our first introduction to Morocco. A lot to learn and absorb - especially when one doesnt have any background in Moroccan history. The Hassan II Mosque is a must see. The scale and the workmanship is outstanding. Intricate and stunningly beautiful. And one of the very few mosques in the world where non-Moslems may visit. There is a museum in the medina on the history of Casablanca - worth stopping and spending more time here.

Great massage. Feel super clean and refreshed afterwards.

Fascinating roman ruins. Our guide was a little rushed. But you can wander and go at your own pace. It is a big site. Who knew that the largest Roman ruins in North Africa are here! Some well preserved mosaic floors. You're in the sun, with no shade. So wear a hat!

Really enjoyed our local guide Hanyn. This was a "must do" tour - got to eat some real local foods and was able to recreate our steps and go back the next day to some of our favorite stalls. Loved the fresh mesmen pancakes, yoghurt drink and traditional harira soup. Lots to eat and taste. Be adventurous - snails, stews and stuffed pitas. Go with an appetite. Guide was very attentive to allergies. Lots of fun and an opportunity to try some real local food. Not just for tourists!

Lovely former royal city. Enjoyed our walk around and exploration of the medina. Our tour was on a Friday - so many shops closed - keep in mind that on Fridays one may have to adjust one's schedule to take into account noon prayers, etc. Our guide was really interesting and knowledgeable. Nice smaller city to roam around. Not so crowded!

A great introduction to Marrakesh and its medina. Hanyn was very informative and gave us a lot of history and cultural perspective. There's lots to see - only a question of how much stamina one has to see it all! All the palaces and madrassas were so beautiful - easy to get overwhelmed by the tilework and painted ceilings. Quite spectacular.

First class facility and equipment. Teachers and commentary were excellent. All instructions were very clear and concise. Well thought out and presented class. Easy to follow - even for non-cooks. And of course the test is in the eating! Ha ha, you get to eat what you cook - lots of food. Beautifully arranged and a smooth operation. I cant wait to try cooking with a tagine at home!

A truly luxurious experience in a lovely hammam and spa. A real exfoliation scrub - you feel so much cleaner afterwards. A great way to end our trip in Morocco. This is a 5 star treatment. The staff are wonderful and you really feel pampered and taken care of. Even my hubby and son enjoyed it!!
