8 Days of Moroccan Highlights, Marrakech to Marrakech an 1800Kms road trip.
Marrakech, dades valley, Ait Ben Haddou, Ouarzazate, Tinghir, Gorge Toudgha, Merzogha, Fes, Rabat and Marrakech.

We were accompanied by our driver/guide throughout the trip. Rafiq. He was a very competent and considerate driver and he was very knowledgeable about all the areas and places we visited. He was also an extremely nice guy who went over and beyond to make our trip memorable especially on my wife's birthday. However, in each place we had a local guide who was a specialist for the city. Hassan for Marrakech and Said for Fes were excellent.
The accommodations selected by Sharon based on our specification were excellent and gave us a very good insight into Moroccan high life. The Ryad Paradise delivered the best dinner of the entire trip.
I would strongly recommend this company and this itinerary to anyone wanting their first taste of Moroccan culture but in some style.

Activity Review
Guided Tour of Fes
Fes

Said, the local tour guide was very interesting and extremely knowledgeable and made the tour a long but fun day.

Quality of Experience
The guide was brought up in the city so could speak about his own experiences in the city which made the history very real.
Guides, Drivers and Staff
As guests from the UK, all could speak very good English and all had a good sense of humour
Transport
Clean, on time and a good driver, never felt at risk and always courteous to other road users

Hi Paul,

Thanks for taking the time to write us such an amazing review. We are thrilled that you had a memorable trip to Morocco and that your wife's birthday was special! Also glad to hear that you enjoyed your time with Rafik, Hassan, and Said. We agree with your assessments and are super happy to have found Said as, believe me, all local guides are not equal! Thanks for the positive feedback regarding Riad Paridise, too. They are a fairly new riad and we just started working with them. I... read more

Hi Paul,

Thanks for taking the time to write us such an amazing review. We are thrilled that you had a memorable trip to Morocco and that your wife's birthday was special! Also glad to hear that you enjoyed your time with Rafik, Hassan, and Said. We agree with your assessments and are super happy to have found Said as, believe me, all local guides are not equal! Thanks for the positive feedback regarding Riad Paridise, too. They are a fairly new riad and we just started working with them. I know that they use fresh and locally sourced ingredients because we ran into the owner at the weekly market in Kelaat M'Gouna a few weeks ago!

Thanks again for the great review and thanks even more for trusting us with you trip!
Take care and keep in touch,
Sharon, Rafik, and the rest of the Morocco Immersion Family
