We were extremely pleased with our experience in Morocco. Our driver was Ali who was wonderful. He catered to our needs, was respectful and we felt safe at all times.
Our Guide in Fes was very knowledgeable and we had a good time overall. We highly recommend using the Morocco Tours Agency. They planned all our excursions for us including a tour of Fes, a day trip to the Atlas Mountains and Essaouria.
We used their car and driver for the entire duration of our trip which made our planning hassle-free.
Above Our Expectations!
Husband and I (from the USA) spend 6 days exploring this beautiful country with our tour guide and driver from Morocco Tours agency. The car that picked us up and was "our vehicle" as we traveled through the country was far above our expectations.
Extremely clean and well maintained. Our guide, Moha, was very patient and answered all our questions, and gave us wonderful insight into what life is like in Morocco.
The highlight of our trip was our stay in the Sahara desert in a luxury camp. Campfire and music under the milky way is a memory I will cherish forever. I highly recommend this tour company.
