Original Travels Co

Our family of four used KimKim/Original Travels to create a 9-day custom tour of Morocco that exceeded our expectations. Communication with Abdellah and Said at Original Travels was outstanding from beginning to end, the selected local guides were all excellent, and adjustments to our itinerary were made seamlessly when requested.

Our enjoyment of the trip was influenced by Karim, our exceptional driver/guide, who truly made our experience in Morocco unforgettable. He was always punctual, incredibly flexible with our schedule, and consistently went above and beyond to make sure our needs were met, including a side quest to find a specific piece of pottery.

What truly sets Karim apart is his cheerful personality and genuine willingness to share personal stories and deep cultural insights. His stories brought Morocco to life in a way no guidebook ever could, and we always felt enriched by everything he shared.

The vehicle was always clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, making even long drives relaxing. Most importantly, we always felt completely safe and in excellent hands with Karim behind the wheel.

If you are looking for a reliable, knowledgeable, warm, and professional driver/guide in Morocco, we cannot recommend Karim highly enough. KimKim, Original Travels, and Karim, truly made our journey special.

The experience of contacting kimkim to find the right itinerary was really easy. So many options and so many ways to search the kind of itinerary you want. That helps planning really easy. As soon as we decided on 5 days of northern Marocco , we got connected to our local contact in Marocco, Mohammed. Communication was easy and we were able to create itinerary with details we preferred. The week before the trip , Mohammed connected us with Said, who was managing our trip. Same experience, easy communication , I was always able to contact him. When I wanted to make a little change , Said took care of it right away. Our driver , Sofianne was wonderful, very gentle and kind guy , who is also an amazing driver and very helpful. We felt relaxed and safe the entire time we moved from city to city. Our tour guide in Rabat, Hasannia and Sharif in Fes were very knowledgable . They know everything relevant to the place or city that they were guiding us in. We learned a lot and we enjoyed exploring Rabat and Fes with them. Couldn’t have asked for better guide. Overall, we were very satisfied with how our trip came to be. Would definitely recommend everyone involved

Sharif was very knowledgable and he knew the layout of the Medina in Fes really well. Not once did he hesitate about where to turn in a city that really feel like you are inside a giant labyrinth. But beyond that, he knows about all historical and current information relevant to Fes and Marocco in general, making the whole experience really pleasant and we were able to learn a lot during our short visit. Couldn ‘t have gotten a better guide.

Our Morocco trip? Absolutely chef’s kiss perfection.

We were welcomed at the airport by Ousamma—a big man with an even bigger heart. He basically knew everything about everything, and he kept an eye on us the whole trip… not because Morocco wasn’t safe, but because he treated us like VIPs who occasionally forget where they left their sunglasses.

The itinerary was so smooth, we still can’t believe we covered nearly 2,000 km by road without once questioning our life choices. The hotels and riads were charming, comfortable, and perfectly located—like someone had planned the trip using insider secrets.

And the funniest part? Everywhere we went, people were amazed to meet Nepalis for the first time. We felt like rare Pokémon wandering through Morocco.

Organizing a 16-day private tour with a dedicated driver through Morocco is no small feat, and we truly appreciate the efforts of Original Travels and the kimkim travel agency for making our journey memorable. The trip was well planned by Imane who provided excellent suggestions was in constant contact with out driver and was able to modify when changes needed to be made. We were able to see a large part of the country and had quality time in the sites we were interested in seeing.
Our driver, Soufian went above and beyond to make the trip convenient and to ensure our needs were met. He is a skilled driver and managed to calmly negotiate the chaos of busy cities, keeping a lookout for pedestrians, autos, busses, motorcycles and occasionally donkeys and carts. Furthermore, he spoke English well, shared information about the country and the Moroccan way of life. He has a great sense of humor but was never overbearing. He made sure we were comfortable, providing water and asking if we needed breaks throughout the trip. He made us feel confident about negotiating our travels and provided safety tips as well as an App to reach him. He was always prompt and provided the time we needed to tour areas of interest. As an older couple we never felt rushed. Further, Soufian ensured staff from the Rihad’s were available to guide us and assist with luggage through the narrow, cobbled Medinas. We were happy with our tour guides and enjoyed every single day of our trip.
While the detailed itinerary listed stops at Andalusian Gardens and the Musee des Oudias, we didn’t receive specific directions or information about these locations, and they were ultimately not included in our visits. Nevertheless, the trip was packed with unforgettable moments that far exceeded our expectations.
On October 26, 2025, in Marrakesh, Le Jardin Secret Garden was substituted for the Majorelle Gardens due to ticket availability issues. Although the trip was booked and paid for on September 2, 2025, it would have been helpful to be informed of any changes—such as this substitution—upon our arrival in Morocco, rather than at the time of the event. Similarly, the Moroccan storytelling scheduled at Café Clock was planned for a time when the activity was not available, which was a minor disappointment.
During the journey from Essaouira to Casablanca on October 29, stops at Safi, The Potter’s Capital, and El Jadida, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, were listed on the itinerary but were omitted without explanation. We believe that discussing any itinerary changes upon arrival would enhance the travel experience and avoid confusion later in the trip.
Despite these small hiccups, our overall experience was fantastic. The team went above and beyond to keep the car clean and provide bottled water daily, and their responsiveness to unexpected changes, such as rebooking our initial nights at Pestana Casablanca due to a soccer tournament, was impressive. We understand the complexities involved in organizing such an extensive tour and appreciate the attention to detail throughout our adventure.
Our sincere thanks to kimkim Travel Agency, Original Travels and especially to Soufian for providing a wonderful trip that we enjoyed immensely.

Our trip to Morocco was incredible from start to finish! KimKim made it very easy to plan the perfect trip, and everything was seamlessly coordinated throughout our trip. Our driver, Ilyace, was absolutely wonderful. He was punctual and very easy to get along with. Most importantly, he drove safely through mountain passes and winding roads. He ensured that we stopped to stretch our legs at interesting sites during our long travel days, and he brought us to fantastic and authentic Moroccan cuisine along the way. Our riads were beautiful (especially in Marrakesh and the camping experience in the desert), the food was incredible everywhere we went, and the tours were a great way to learn about the history of the cities.

Riad Kniza

Marrakech

Incredible riad! This was one of the best hotels we have ever stayed in. The riad was beautiful, the room was spacious and comfortable, and everyone was very accommodating. The location was perfect, as it was near the entrance to the medina and not too far from the main square. The complimentary breakfast was delicious too! Would absolutely recommend staying here!

Dar Rihana Dades

Douar Aït Ouffi

This riad was absolutely perfect for our overnight stay en route to the Sahara desert. The check-in/out process was easy, and the room was spacious and comfortable. The best part of this riad was the dinner that served on our arrival -- we are foodies, and we are not exaggerating when we say this was the best meal of our trip and, quite possibly, one of the best meals of our lives. HIGHLY recommend!!!

Tiziri Luxury Camp

Merzouga

Everything about this experience was incredible. Our visit started with a 2-hour camel ride to the camp site, then we were welcomed with tea and pastries on arrival. Our "tent" was perfect with all of the amenities we would need -- electrical outlets, full bathroom, heater (if needed), fans (if needed), comfortable bed, wifi. We were made to feel at home by the staff at the camp. We had delicious meals for breakfast and dinner (and they accommodated vegetarian preferences with delicious meal as well), followed by stargazing and a drum circle around a campfire. On our second day at the camp, the staff organized a tour for us around the desert and an ATV ride in the afternoon. Overall, this was incredibly special part of our trip, and we would highly recommend this experience.
