From the moment we began planning the trip with Yassine and then Louis, we were off to a great start. They tailored our trip to match our interests and tastes. They answered our questions and messages in a timely manner and provided very good customer service.

Upon arrival in Casablanca, we were welcomed by the amazing Amine whose energy and enthusiasm about our pending adventure was infectious. Amine truly made the trip even more special with his warmth and hospitality. His ability to navigate the challenging roads gave us confidence.

In Fes we stayed at the Riad Mazar Fes which was not only beautiful and comfortable but Siham and Aziz took great care of us. The authentic breakfast was delicious and particularly memorable. Mohamed, our guide in the Medina, was extremely knowledgeable which also added to the experience.

The Sahara desert, from the sunset camel ride, to the glamorous luxury Camp Chebbi, to the sunrise sand boarding, to the very fun quad ride back to Merzouga was a one-of-a-kind experience.

Stephanie and Ibrahim at the Kasbah Isfoula were also great hosts and we enjoyed a great dinner at the hotel restaurant. The charismatic Aziz, our guide in Ait Ben Haddou , integrated his experiences being an extra in well known movies and TV series into the narrative to everyone's delight.

In Marrakesh, our guide Rachid was totally awesome. The cooking class at the Clock Cafe is a must do. Mohammed our chef was terrific and the food we all made was delicious.

Overall, KimKim planned the perfect trip!

Eliana! Your review simply makes me love what I do so thank you so much! My colleague Louis and I truly enjoyed working with you to plan your Morocco adventure. You were so fun to work with and it frankly made it so easy to put your trip plan together. Amine is indeed a fun person to be around and so glad that you two connected very well. I love hearing that you had a good time with Siham, Aziz, and Mohamed in Fez. I agree that the cooking class is a must, I do recommend it to my travelers... Read more

Eliana! Your review simply makes me love what I do so thank you so much! My colleague Louis and I truly enjoyed working with you to plan your Morocco adventure. You were so fun to work with and it frankly made it so easy to put your trip plan together. Amine is indeed a fun person to be around and so glad that you two connected very well. I love hearing that you had a good time with Siham, Aziz, and Mohamed in Fez. I agree that the cooking class is a must, I do recommend it to my travelers and I always hear great feedback about it so I'm glad you also enjoyed it. I was just traveling in Merzouga and stayed at camp Chebbi where I took some amazing pictures of the stars at night. This is a very unique place that I really don't think can be experienced elsewhere so my glad it was one of the highlights of your trip. Please stay in touch and let me know if you ever want to revisit Morocco :)
