This is my first time using Kim Kim but it won’t be my last. Original travel and their amazing staff made our trip to Morocco one I will never forget. Ali planned the most amazing trip for us. Saiid provided the best support and service to us. And Ilyace, our incredible driver and guide, treated us like family. He was such a great driver and was incredibly kind and patient with my kids. The itinerary was a dream. We loved exploring the beauty of Morocco and were blown away by its development and it’s luxurious hotels. The tour guides were knowledgeable and amazing. We felt safe the whole time. We will always remember learning to cook Tagine in Marrakesh, watching the sunrise on a hot air balloon, riding camels as the sun went down in the Sahara, seeing my kids try all the delicious food Fez had to offer on a rooftop restaurant, waking up to sand board and then ATV in a sandstorm, and so many many more memories.

Another wonderful hotel in Morocco. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. The staff treated us amazing. Most incredible views of Fez from the restaurant and Pool. A rooftop restaurant with perfect views of Fez and the sunset. Highly recommend.

Not authentic but highly recommend anyway.

Mandarin Oriental Marrakech
Marrakech

If this had 10 stars available that is what this hotel would get. It is the best hotel I have ever stayed in my life I felt like a total queen. Our villa was so unbelievable I never ever wanted to leave. There are not enough words. Worth every penny. The pool in our villa was a dream. The beds were extremely comfortable. The breakfast was on another level. Just absolute perfection.

Riad Ksar Ighnda
Ait Benhaddou

The service was amazing. The staff was so kind. The hotel looks like it is straight out of a movie. Truly beautiful and authentic. Our balcony had some of the most incredible views ever of the Atlas Mountains. The only negative was the bed was a bit hard and the dinner buffet was expensive and not too bountiful.

Very authentic and so much character

Desert Luxury Camp Erg Chebbi
Merzouga

The staff was wonderful. One of the staff went above and beyond and helped teach us to sand board. Our kids had an incredible time on the camels and dancing/ singing at night. We will never forget our stay in the desert. The accommodations were spacious and the water although a bit cool was absolutely perfect for cooling off in the desert. Only recommendation I would have is to have a family tent as our kids were scared to stay alone in their own tent and slept with us.

Authenticity & Character
The food, decor, and everything was so authentic.
Location
There is nothing like spending the night in the desert.

Conrad Rabat Arzana
Rabat

The Conrad Rabat is one of my favorite hotels I have ever stayed in. We were treated like royalty. The rooms are spacious and luxurious. The perfect accommodations for a family of 4 or more. The sushi restaurant overlooking the ocean was spectacular. The infinity pool with stunning views was something we truly loved. Oh and the breakfast and service, wow just wow.

Authenticity & Character
Not necessarily authentic but incredible

Beautiful water views

The mosque was amazing. The tour guide was a bit brief. I wish we would have learned a bit more about Islam or their traditions. Ilyace filled in the rest of the information for us though.

Getting picked up by Ilyace was so easy. He was holding up a sign and took us to our extremely comfortable car.

Rabat

Our guide was great. We really loved Rabat and learned a lot about it. It was a really enjoyable morning. The only thing we would not recommend was the restaurant we ate in Rabat. It was touristy and the only restaurant we did not like on our whole trip. Very nice views but service and food at the restaurant were poor.

Wow! I loved this tour. We learned so much. Our guide was amazing and made us feel comfortable and safe the whole time. We loved our itinerary and he took us to the best rooftop restaurant on Fez. He initially had other plans for us for lunch but was extremely accommodating in that we wanted to eat outside. He adjusted to our likes and I appreciated that so much.

Our cooking class was at Faim d’epice with Michel. He was the absolute best. We learned so much and had the best time. I cannot say enough great things about this cooking class. He was so kind and patient with my kids. The cooking class was one of the highlights of our trip.

I didn’t really like this. It was my request but I thought the belly dancing should have been more of a show. I didn’t like that the women had money in their bras. It just didn’t feel very appropriate for families. The food was good and the prices were reasonable.
