Jet· October 15th, 2025Automatic translation available in English. View in EnglishVery beautiful route, but you really have to travel a lot. Morocco has a lot of culture to offer. Unfortunately, many of us in the group were ill and gastrointestinal tablets didn't help. I would recommend October. It was 38 degrees in Marrakech.Show more

Asked on September 9th, 2025I wanted to do a 12-14 day Morocco trip in April. I'm 42 years old though. I saw your age range is lower than that. Wanted to check if you have any trips where a 42 year old can join in too :D.
- Intrepid TravelOperator•Written September 2025
Unfortunately classic Morocco is specially designed for travelers aged 18–35. Please see if any of the trips below interest you.

Trevor
Asked on September 2nd, 2025Will you help us book flight tickets from Toronto to Morocco?
- Intrepid TravelOperator•Written September 2025
We do not provide flight booking services. We kindly ask you to make your own flight arrangements from Toronto to Morocco. If you need any guidance regarding trip starting time or airports for the trip, we'd be happy to provide that information to help with your planning.

Jeff
Asked on September 1st, 2025Is the trip open to any ages? In one part I saw 18-35 and in another part it had a much wider range of ages. Do you have any tours done in French?
- Intrepid TravelOperator•Written September 2025
For this particular trip, participation is restricted to travellers aged 18–35. The reason behind this is that the itinerary and style of travel are designed specifically for younger travellers looking for a more social, fast-paced group experience with travelers of the same age. If you don't fall into this category, no worries at all — we'd be more than happy to recommend similar tours that are open to a wider age range and still offer an amazing/ Simliar experience. Our tours are led by local tour leaders who primarily guide in English, along with their native language and sometimes additional languages depending on the destination.

Jean

- Intrepid TravelOperator•Written August 2025
