We had a great experience working with Majid and kimkim especially as we arranged our trip without a lot of lead time. Majid helped us quickly plan a wonderful 10-day trip through a good part of Morocco (Casablanca, Chefchaouen, Fes, Merzouga, Boumalne Dades/Ait Benhaddou, Marrakesh) which allowed us to experience many of the country's beautiful traditions, culture and people. He organised an excellent and friendly driver, Ismail, who spent countless hours on the road with us and was always happy to share facts, language lessons, tips, insights, and excellent restaurant recommendations. He quickly became one of our most trusted resources and good friend. Both Majid and Ismail were always keen to ensure that we were enjoying ourselves and seeing the best of Morocco. They were in constant touch from the beginning to the end.
Travelling in a small group of only two women, I was pleased with the accommodations selected by Majid. They were always beautiful, safe, and offered exactly what we needed in each city whether that was a beautiful view or a cool respite. Our activities were varied yet tailored to our requests and many of the associated individual guides/hosts always very welcoming. We especially enjoyed the cooking class with Rania, Latifa and their families who so kindly welcomed us into their home for the evening. We also appreciated Mohammed, our expert guide through the Dades Gorge, providing an impromptu opportunity to share mint tea with his Berber friend and learn first-hand about Berber families and culture.
Hotel Reviews
This amazing dar is charm x 1000. Every detail - colour, textures, patterns - is found throughout the property. It is truly an immersive experience of Moroccan culture. The views of Chefchaouen from the rooftop are incredible and are thoroughly enjoyed while having a tasty breakfast with plenty of fresh juice, coffee and mint tea. The room we stayed in was spacious, clean, and comfortable, and of course matched the beautiful decor of the dar. It's location was well positioned for getting right into Chefchaouen, making it very easy to get out and explore on your own.
Beautiful riad, with wonderful staff and owner who has taken such care to develop the property over many years. After a day exploring the sights and sounds of Fes, it is a very relaxing place to be with a wonderful communal garden and pool enjoyed by all the guests.
This was a beautful hotel with great amenities including a gorgeous rooftop pool. Our stay was very short but we found it very comfortable, clean, and well located to our actvities that day (a hike through the Dades Gorge).
Our biggest regret is that we were only there for one night having arrived in the late afternoon and then headed out the next morning. During our short time there, the staff were simply amazing. They took care of getting us across the desert to the camp, created a delicious meal for dinner, provided musical evening entertainment, and then were up again the next day preparing breakfast and getting us ready to head out. The camp itself was beautful and well appointed, with comfortable bedrooms, but I think it was the staff that made it all the more special.
Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to share your experience! I’m delighted to hear that you had such a memorable journey through Morocco. It was truly a pleasure for me and my team to help you design your trip on short notice and ensure everything went smoothly from start to finish.
