Morocco tour - trip of a lifetime
Morocco

Jun 20 - Jun 29, 2025
From the moment we decided to book a tour of Morocco with KimKim, we were met with excellent customer care. The KimKim team, especially Said, was quick to respond and patiently answered our many questions and requests for customization. The website was great to use and served us well throughout the planning and during the trip.
Even before we embarked on our journey from Denver to Casablanca, Oussama, our driver/guide, was in contact with us and as soon as we touched down he efficiently navigated us towards him and the very comfortable van we would call ours for the next ten days. There was no doubt that we were in the best hands possible. Aside from being a kind and patient human, Oussama organically shared his love and knowledge of his beautiful country with us throughout the trip. He patiently accommodated our schedules and needs and answered a million questions. We added several excursions and each was superb. He matched us with Mohammed for a most insightful and delicious city and food tour in Marrakech; the next morning, we dove into a Hammam experience that my daughter called the absolute best thing that has ever happened to her, while my husband played golf at the oldest golf club in Morocco. We left Marrakech after three nights, following the lush green river valley to the striking peaks of the Atlas mountains to Imlil for one nicht. Again we were met by a knowledgeable guide who exposed us to the culture of his people and kindly opened up his house for a traditional lunch before continuing our hike to a waterfall through narrow, steep paths with amazing views. After a comfortable night at what seemed like our own private hotel (with pool), we left the peaks for the desert for two nights. Who thought we would be greeted with such comfort - the clamping in Agafay, as everything, exceeded our expectations. So did the ATV tour and Camel ride (with a baby camel in tow), followed by surfing and another Hammam in Essaouira… too many highlights to list. Every accomodation was great (with the Riad Le Pelerin in Marrakech being the most beautiful and special place we have ever stayed at), every restaurant recommendation, every place to stop to take in the sights - even when pressed, I could not come up with a ‘complaint’. This trip was the most memorable vacation we have ever taken with our family and the sounds, sights and tastes will be with us forever. We are already thinking about where we can go next and KimKim is on top of our list to guide us on our next adventure. Highly, highly recommend the company and their fantastic local partners. Again, big shout-out to Said and Oussama for a trip of a lifetime to North Africa.
Hotel Reviews
This Riad is an oasis in the middle of the beautiful Marrakech medina. The tranquility, comfort and sheer beauty is hard to put into words. Beyond gorgous. Staff so kind and helpful. Just amazing.
Great hotel in the buzzling and hectic town of Casablanca.
Authenctic berber home (from what I could gather), gorgous pool, great views, comfortable and clean.
Great "camp", gorgous common places, sparkling pool, attentive staff and tasty food. And, for all those teens out there, better cell service than in downtown Denver plus AC - for me, not expected in the middle of the stone desert.
Very comfortable, clean in great location. Only hotel on our trip where we were more surrounded with other tourists (not a problem, just mentioning).
Activity Reviews
Mohammed did an amazing job of guiding us through town, answering our many questions and sharing his vast knowledge of the city, culture and history.
Mohammed provided us with an amazing tour of not only the finished dishes, but also how and where it is prepared.
The Hammam Oussama took us to was a life altering experience - so relaxing, so comfortable, so different. We were treated with the utmost patience and kindness and left feeling not only rejuvenated but elevated.
