  Khalid, the guide, and Hussein, the driver were both excellent. Having a small group was a real plus. Mostly enjoyed the smaller, less touristy places more than the large cities. The Medina's were nice.

  A friend and I undertook this tour to get a taste of Morocco, and we certainly achieved that! The 15 day itinerary is full on, so be prepared for little rest time. However the experiences presented in that time were diverse, interesting, and informative. Our guide, Mohammed, was excellent - professional, friendly, caring, knowledgeable, and had passengers’ best interest always at the forefront of what he did. Our first driver, Tarek, was also very good. He drove safely and looked after passengers’ luggage and comfort as best he could. The transport used was fine for our group of 10, if the group had been larger it would have been very squeezy. Seatbelts are a problem that need to be urgently addressed by the company. Accommodation varied in standard, and on several occasions the group was split between hotels - early booking by the company should have prevented this. Some rooms in some hotels were simply sub-standard. I wasn’t expecting luxury, but basic creature comforts should have been provided. Highlights for me were the exposure to the cultures, the variation between the bustling cities and the quieter countryside, the drive through the High Atlas Mountains, and riding a camel at sunset in the Sahara Desert. I’ve come away with greater awareness and knowledge of Morocco and its people - and hundreds of photos!

  I recently had the most unforgettable experience with Tourradar Company on my journey through Morocco. This trip exceeded all my expectations, showcasing the rich culture and stunning landscapes of the country. From the very beginning, the organizers were proactive, keeping in touch through emails that built up our excitement with reminders and tips. The tour group was perfectly sized at 17 members, allowing us to bond like a family. We came from eight different countries, yet we connected effortlessly from day one. Our tour guide, Aissa, was exceptional. His knowledge and people skills made every moment enjoyable, and he treated each of us with equal attention, patiently answering all our queries. The local guides were fantastic too, enriching our experience with their fascinating narratives. While I thoroughly enjoyed the journey, there were a couple of minor drawbacks. As vegetarians, we found the local cuisine a bit bland and repetitive. Additionally, some of the hotels, particularly Hotel Arena in Fes, had unpleasant odors from the drains that made for a difficult night's sleep. Our time with a Berber family felt a bit prolonged, as waiting for tea became tedious, taking away from our opportunity to engage with another family. Despite these small issues, the tour was exceptionally well-planned and executed, with attention to our comfort and enjoyment. I keep looking back at the beautiful photos and feeling nostalgic. Many of my friends are now inspired to visit Morocco after seeing my experiences. Overall, this has been the best tour of my life, setting a high standard for any future travels. I highly recommend Tourradar Company for anyone looking to explore Morocco in depth.

  What an incredible experience. I learned soooo much and I had a wonderful time doing it. Preconceived notions of this North African nation as being a vast desert were blown away. This tour showed the diversity of both the people and the geography. Who knew that Morocco had a Wine Region? I certainly didn't. The Morocco Encompassed Tour traveled through and showcased all the regions....from modern cosmopolitan cities to tiny villages. From cold 7,000 ft mountain passes to palm filled oasis, from seaside to inland desert. The hotels, 3-4 stars, were all good to excellent. Our wonderful tour guide, Younes Afqir, led the group with unfailing good humor. We were a diverse group but he met the individual needs of every one of us. He was always mindful of insuring that health and dietary needs were met. He treated each person as an individual, not just as a part of the group, always having time to single us out to make sure we were happy with the way things were going. He always made sure we had a way to contact him, 24 hrs a day, even if we needed him during free time. Even though I arrived a few days early Younes contacted me to make sure I had arrived at the hotel with no problems. And when I stayed a few days longer than the regular tour he made sure I knew I could call on him if I ran into trouble. As I was traveling as a Solo Traveler I was especially thankful for all of his assurances...he made me feel well looked after. I am sure others from my tour will talk about what a wonderful guide he was, but to me the important part was the personal cre he gave to each individual. The entire tour was very well organized. The route and stopping places were well chosen for a great overview of the country. There were Concenience stops at good intervals along the way on travel days. Twice we had two-night stays at hotels that did laundry so large luggage is not needed. This tour gets my personal "Thumbs Up"

  Not the best time for travelers during The month of Ramadan unless you want the cultural experience. Finding dining venue's was a challenge at times.

  Sorry to hear that your trip in March 2024 wasn't the best time to go. Usually, during Ramadan, some restaurants stay open for tourists and we work around this. Shops open a little later than normal but this period does not usually affect our tours.... Show more

  Perfect handling by the guide and driver. Younis never just tried to do the obvious but tried to offer something beyond. Always just the right amount of help, advice, information and choice.Good balance! Also very good selection of destinations, hotels and activities in the itinerary. It's obvious that some amount of driving is necessary if you want to cover it all - so well done here.
