If you’re looking for a good way to see the country, book your trip with Adil. There is a lot of driving, but there are stops every 1.5 to 2 hours. Adil is very knowledgeable about the country and speaks many languages. He made us feel safe and was very welcoming. The tour guides in Fes (Abdul) and Chefchaouen (Mohamed) were great and very knowledgeable about the towns. The riad’s are booked through the organization so you don’t have to worry about planning anything. The dinners at the riad’s are also included. One tip is to consolidate your luggage into a smaller one because the riad’s have many steps. Your other luggage is safe with Adil in the van. Yes, there is free WiFi in the van. Pick-ups and drop-offs to your riad are planned with the organization and also included. Highly recommended!

The day trip to Rabat was really lovely. We were picked up from our hotel in an air-conditioned minivan and driven to Rabat. Half way we stopped at service station to buy some food or drinks or just for the restrooms. In Rabat we picket up a tour guide. The tour guides English was really good and he had a lot of knowledgeable information. We visited the mausoleum of Hassan 2 and went on with a few stops including the opera house. The visit to the Casbah was very impressive. Such a beautiful and tranquil place by the sea. We finished the casbah with Turkish tea and cookies which were delicious. Overall this trip to Rabat was a real highlight and we all thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you!

Had a great day in Casablanca. My flight arrived early and Yousef was already waiting at the pickup point. He was friendly and knowledgeable and hit all the highlights in Casablanca, including a stop for dinner at an authentic (non-tourist) Moroccan restaurant. Showing equal concern for customer enjoyment and safety, this was an excellent tour and a great value. I highly recommend.

Wonderful tour and a beautiful day in Rabat learning about the city. Great guide and driver. Both were very informed, knowledgeable and courteous.

Your driver was great, spot on time, and the Tour Guide was just wonderful!
