Our driver Omar was phenomenal. Friendly, excellent driver, helpful and curious. He made the trip memorable and went out of his way to help. Showing us his family home in Dades was memorable for us. The hotels were great except in Chefchuan the blue city despite our request we got the room several floors up with no elevator and it was dusty and musty smell in the room making my allergies unbearable. The hotel in Marrakech and Fes were excellent. The hotel in Casablanca was not so great and front staff a bit rude. The desert experience even though spectacular was marred by poor camel seats in 2 out of 4 causing loss of thigh skin and constant risk of falling off. The food there very ordinary and entertainment very primitive and amateurs and we couldn’t take it after a few minutes. The SUV driver drove on the dunes recklessly and most of us were sick ignoring our request not to do so. The guide Salaam in Marrakech and host family for cooking class were just amazing. Very memorable.Meeting Abdul for tea in Rose valley was great. Small hotel in Dades valley was very good hospitality was warm and great food even for vegetarians. The vehicle was very comfortable and spacious. The arrangements by Sharon were very efficient.

Warm hospitality, great food, pretty setting
Staff a bit rude, room very ordinary, was dusty with renovations, our request for sea views room was never honored, location good, food was good
Room okay, food poor, entertainment very poor, manager driver reckless and uncaring
Dusty, musty, our request for ground or lower floor was not known to the hotel and we had to climb multiple flights with luggage, allergies were bad here. Location very good.
Most amazing hotel palace, very accommodating staff, my room had a window opening to wall do they upgraded us next day to a suite. Food and location perfect.

Guide Said, so so little disinterested, city magnificent
Great guide Salaam . Enjoyed the tour, Souks and atmosphere
Lovely family, very warm and welcoming. Very nice cooking class, yummy food, getting dressed in traditional Moroccan outfits a surprise bonus.
Bit long drive, the Ait Ben Haddou trip got, dusty and tiring, rose and Dades valley very pretty
Beautiful drive, Ifrane just beautiful
Camel ride substandard poor seats, dunes magnificent, camp substandard, poor food and very poor entertainment, reception office before the camel ride unfriendly and asking to paid for washrooms use. Camp manager driving us was reckless and scary.
Roman ruins very nice, good guide
Not much to see except the Hassan mosque which was spectacular , beach walk was nice, dinner was nice at the hotel , hotel itself ordinary
Pretty yet very touristy town, asking for money every where for photos, had a great meal
Guide disinterested, not prepared, couldn’t show us the drive through palace grounds because it was time for royal kids to leave school, could not show us the mausoleum because some special visit. Mostly waste of time. We went and saw the mausoleum next morning on our own.
