Morrocco Tour October 2025

Morocco | Oct 15 - Oct 30, 2025

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.
