Our "local specialist" was Said and our driver/guide was Faisal. Organization and trip details were wonderful...almost everything went without a hitch. Riads and hotels were very good (asked for moderate priced) to excellent. Our driver/guide was superb...personable, knowledgeable, and thorough. He attended to every detail and, even when he passed us off to local guides, always checked in to be sure that everything was going well.
Inevitably, there were long car rides, and Faisal broke them up with interesting stops that highlighted local history and commerce. We had local guides in several cities, and in the aggregate, they were excellent.

Hotel Reviews
Dar Rihana Dades
Douar Aït Ouffi

A small, charming hotel that was managed impeccably in every way. The two brothers running the hotel were efficient, personable, and saw to every detail. The food we had there was the best we had in Morocco.

Sharif was extremely knowledgeable and personable. He has a thorough sense of history. He guided us through the maze of the medina, making us feel like we'd seen the most important and interesting aspects and was very responsive to our questions and interests.

Our guide, Souhel, gave us a wide range of Moroccan foods we hadn't had anywhere else, showing us the kitchens in the Medina as they were cooking, and explained the processes involved. His choices were all tasty and authentic. Souhel was more than just a good guide and historian, he was a true ambassador of Marrakech and Morocco.
