This trip was perfect. I want to especially mention a few of the guides. First and foremost, Ahmed Boufdam, our driver/guide, was outstanding. He is a great asset to the company. He is smart, funny, attentive, and a great driver. He really made our week into a spectacular trip. He made it look easy, and I know that's the sign of someone very good at what they do.
Hisham (Abdou's brother!) and Rashid were also incredible - in Marrakech and Fes. They are so good at what they do - consummate professionals with loads of experience and great delivery. Hasania in Rabat was also a standout.
The accommodations were perfect.
The itinerary was excellent; there's never enough time to do all you want to do, but we had a good mix, and I loved getting to see the spectacular Moroccan countryside. It was stunning.
Overall, I was very pleased with the trip, and would recommend the trip to anyone considering a trip to Morocco.

This was cut short by rain - nobody's fault, but means I can't give it a 5-star review -

Naul and her daughter were lovely. It was not the most hands' on cooking class I have ever done, but it was thoroughly enjoyable, and the food was excellent!

Hi Amy,

Thanks for taking the time to write a review for our team! We are thrilled that you and Margaret had a great time in Morocco and that you enjoyed your time with Ahmed. Sorry to hear that your visit to Volubilis was cut short because of the rain, though! Guess that means you will just have to come back one day!

We will share your review with Ahmed and I will pass on your complements to our guides: Hasania, Rachid, and (of course) Hicham.

Thanks for trusting us with your trip! Keep in touch!
Thanks,
Sharon, Ahmed and the rest of the Morocco Immersion family
