Sep 9 - Sep 17, 2026
Just got back from an incredible trip to Morocco with my friends. Loved seeing all the beautiful colored textiles, ornate doors, and pottery in the souks. And of course loved eating amazing tagine and my favorite Bastilla. We enjoyed hiking in the Atlas mountains and riding donkeys, camels and horses all around Morocco. Our local specialist Siad was great and allowed us to make last minute changes and assist us in getting restaurant reservations. Thanks Siad for being so flexible. And we can't thank of driver enough- Soufiane. He was knowledgeable, accommodating, and just a great person. And he put up with 3 women whose luggage kept getting bigger and bigger! Many thanks for everyone for making this an incredible trip we will never forget.
Hotel Reviews
Beautiful hotel, great location and great breakfast. Only complaint was I wish the rooms with ocean views were open. (they were under construction)
Beautiful glamping in the desert- and best of all the domes have air conditioning.
Beautiful riad that was walking distance to all the souks. Staff was amazing-friendly, incredibly helpful and kind.
Activity Reviews
Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable about Essaouira and the history of Morocco. Loved learning all about the history of the country. (I believe his name was Hassan)
Fun food tour. Biggest complaint is that we didn't realize that we were going to multiple places. We started at a roof top restaurant and had tagine and cous cous and all filled up thinking that was dinner. To our surprise we then went to multiple food vendors and we were stuffed so did not get to try the snails and missed out on other dishes. Wish they had warned us!
Enjoyed hiking, LOVED the ride down on the donkeys, and enjoyed a nice Berber meal. My only comment is that I thought we were eating with the Berber family and would get to talk to them. We ate alone and only briefly saw the woman and child of the house. I think it would have been cooler to get to know the Berber family, learn about their day, life in the village, etc.
Pretty place to take pictures
The stable was a bit rough looking and would not be easy to get to if you have mobility issues. We passed several nicer looking riding stables that would be a better fit for Kimkim's upscale service.
This place was amazing. Had one of the best massages ever.
