Our Moroccan Holiday

Jul 13 - Jul 18, 2025
Our trip began in Casablanca where our driver Karim picked us up from our hotel. Karim was outstanding; pleasant and knowledgeable of the cities we visited & and an excellent driver. He was always on time & available; kind, helpful, & willing to help us with any questions. When visiting other cities & sites he always introduced us to our guides & was waiting for us on completion. One of my favorite guides was Sharib in Fez though all of the guides provided were great including ones provided at sites like the tannery & mosaic factory. They were not overly zealous in asking us to buy goods.
Cities visited; Rabat, where we stayed at the Sofitel. The hotel was beautiful with large beautifully appointed rooms & grounds. Service was excellent. We enjoyed the city.
Tangier started off poorly when there was no reservation for our stay. DO NOT PUT PEOPLE AT THE HILTON THERE FRONT DESK STAFF ARE SLOW & NOT HELPFUL ALMOST RUDE. The problem was eventually sorted out by your local representative. Compared to our other hotels & Ryads it was not even close in comparison. We did enjoy the city & the Hercules Caves. Chefchaoen is a beautiful city & lives up to its reputation, as the Blue Pearl. Lina Ryad & Spa was excellent in every way. Our final destination was Fes where we stayed at the Riad Fes & Chareaux. The Riad could not do enough for us during our stay, they anticipated our every need, remembered our names & provided excellent service. Highly recommend. Our tour of the Medina with our guide Sharib was great. Stops at the pottery & mosaic factory and the leather factory provided excellent souvenirs with minimal pressure to buy.
I would definitely recommend a visit to Morocco 🇲🇦 & these cities.
