Over all our trip was amazing. Morocco is an exceptionally beautiful country both in natural beauty and artwork Majid always responded to me very quickly both in planning and during the trip. Highlights were our hike with Mohammad in Dades followed by lunch in his house, the trip to the Sahara desert and the Todra gorge. If I had realized how much time I would spend in the car I probably wouldn’t have booked this trip but almost all of the trip is done driving in stunning Mountain Views so totally worth it! Having a driver made everything so much easier although we wish he were more communicative. He changed the route without telling us so we didnt understand why we weren’t stopping at the places on our itinerary. He also would stop and we’d get out of the car and have no idea why we were stopping there. Once we thought we were a hurry so we spent less time on the stops only to get to our destination 2 1/2 hours early to wait for our camel ride Another disappointment was the e-bike ride we booked in the Todra gorge. Our hotel was a short ride to the gorge, we could have biked from the hotel but instead we were taken a half hour away There were no e-bikes and after about an hour into the ride in a very uninteresting garden of wheat fields I asked for the second time what about the gorge and he said it would be a 3 hour RT bike ride from there and way too hard without e-bikes. It was a wasted day. There’s a great hike in the gorge we would have preferred to do but it was too late in the day at that point. Another disappointment was that we booked the most expensive tour but noticed that although we were usually in wonderful hotels we were in the less expensive rooms, smaller rooms without terraces or fireplaces.

We loved this hotel. The outside area had so many places to take in the gorgeous view. We also loved the fireplace in our room. We had a very spacious suite with a large living room.

Dar Rihana Dades
Douar Aït Ouffi

This was probably the least appealing hotel in our tour but was made up for by Mohammad who seemed to do everything there, from concierge to waiter to launderer. He was incredibly hospitable and made up for what the hotel lacked. We were so grateful he told our driver who was about to take a different route , that there was a much more scenic route which was so worth a few extra minutes. The whole ride had stunning views

A highlight of the trip. I expected to eat in time plates around a fire but we had a very cozy and warm inside restaurant. The outdoor area also had so many places to sit even a tree house. I had wished we booked 2 days. I absolutely loved every minute

Beautiful outdoor area. The view from our window was striking. There is an old mosque and Kasbah on the hotel property that you must see. The buffets were incredibly delicious with so many choice. Another really great hoyel

We regret that we had not asked what options we had. We missed some sites we had wanted to see. also we spent way too much on things we bought. It would have been helpful to get more insight on how to negotiate prices.

A Highlight of the trip was our hike with Mohammad. We loved seeing his house and meeting his family and hearing how he lived. He talked a bit about Islam and this was fascinating to me. Mohammed was a very spiritual person

There are no e-bikes There is no view of the gorge unless you want to do a 5 ride that should really be done on an e-bike. Our itinerary said e-bike ride starting in the village and soon after arriving at the gorge. After an hour through some wheat plots I asked about the gorge and was told it would be very difficult to do without e-bikes. Our hotel was probably a 5 minutes bike ride to the gorge but this place was a half hour car ride from the gorge. A total waste of a day. Very disappointing
