A 100% Local Family Tour!
We visited Morocco in April, and we started the tour from Marrakech as a family.
Nice to see nomadic families life with overnight stays in tents. It was an experience of a lifetime. The guide was professional, knowledgeable, and thoughtful. We even met his family who are very lovely hosts and had some CousCous.
All the riad and hotels were great and the food was all delicious.
I recommend Morocco Tours Agency for traveling around Morocco. The company was very professional and more than delivered on the itinerary!
A Lovely Experience, Great People!
This trip was incredible for three reasons: the spectacular and completeness of the tour, the excellent hospitality of the guides, employees, and drivers, and finally, the people you meet during the experience.
It has been perfectly organized since we managed to visit many places not only in Marrakech but also in other parts of Morocco.
The tour managers were very attentive and went to extremes to make sure we had a good time until I returned to the desert dunes at night to find my phone that fell on the sand. It has been one of the best experiences!
