Reviews about our 12 Days Tour from Casablanca
12 days Tour in Morocco
Thanks for Mr Mohammed, a young and friendly driver, being with us in a private Morocco 12 days sight-seeing tour. We enjoyed so much his skillful and safe driving style and appreciated his hard-working in arrangement in routine driver duty, besides he also played a role as a local guide.
What we felt most warmly is to have a special family home visit in Rissani Berber village, tasting a delicious big pizza (Berber people's homemade big cake with onion, beef, and vegetables inside) lunch.
After we backed to Hong Kong, we still remember the beats of the kinds of music n songs played by Mohammed during this happy trip in his 4WD car. It is really a wonderful journey we ever had, thanks for your support and caring. I strongly recommend this tour service especially for experiencing longer days tour.
12 days tour starting from Casablanca and passing through the imperial cities and the Sahara desert of Morocco
I and my friends took a 12 days tour from Casablanca and passing through the imperial cities and the Sahara desert of Morocco. This tour was the best option to discover the north as well as the south part of Morocco.
We really enjoyed and got to know a lot about the Moroccan culture especially the Berbers and this thanks to our guide Hassan who was very knowledgeable about his culture and was very generous in sharing all his knowledge!
We also stayed in very nice hotels (especially Riads) and we enjoyed the camp in the desert which was absolutely the best part of the tour!

BEST 12 Days Tour from Casablanca to Marrakech
Moha was such an excellent and easy-going guide. His planned 12-day trip started with picking us up from Casablanca and driving us to Rabat through the High and Mid-Atlas mountains to Merzouga (Sahara Desert) to Marrakech and Essaouira before flying out of Marrakech.
His recommendations on food and arrangement with local guides in Fez/Marrakech and accommodations throughout the trip were excellent. He allowed us to free time to explore safer smaller towns by ourselves which was great to try to familiarize ourselves with the local area.
The drive to Merzouga was absolutely breath-taking and relaxing. Moha ensured that we were well entertained with music and conversation during our long drives.
I highly recommend Moha and his tour company to anyone who is looking for an adventure in Morocco for the reliability, comfort, entertainment, wonderful recommendations, and flexibility to customize your trip.
