Amazing Morocco! - When we arrived Casablanca Airport was received by very pleasant driver Chakib. He took us to see iconic Hassan II Mosque in Casablanca what amazing place!!!!!!!!!! right next to this Atlantic Sea. After spending time around the mosque, we went to see the famous coffee shop in Casablanca, which was shown in movie Casablanca, we had coffee there, it is bit expensive. We then drove to capital city of Morocco Rabat. Most beautiful city very clean and 1 can compare it with any European cities, like Paris or London. Unfortunately, we only had one day to spend in Rabat. We stayed in Raid; it was a new experience for us. The place was very clean we were served with afternoon tea and in the morning, we had excellent breakfast. After checking out in the morning we were meet with local guide to show us around the City of Rabat. After Rabat we drove to Chefchaouen, the blue city for one day and we stayed in a hotel. This is great city, but there was lot walking and there are lots of hills. The guide is busy on the phone most of the time. After Chefchaouen we drove to city of Fez, we stayed in Raid. Excellent host, it was late in the evening, and we were not sure if we can venture out through small streets and find our way back to Raid. We had dinner at Raid which was excellent. We spend a day in Fez, the guide showed us around and he was very knowledgeable, we saw the oldest University of the world. I did not care about the leather place, it smelled very bad. After Fez we drove to Marrakech, it is huge city. We spend two days there, we had Mr. Essaadi Abdrrahim as our guide. He was great, we checked into Raid, it is simply beautiful place. Mr. Essaadi took us out on horse buggy to show us the night life of City of Marrakech. We had excellent diner in our Raid. Next day we spent seen the Bazar did some shopping and we tried street food that was simply great. In the evening Mr. Essaadi and Chakib took us to see horse show, it was bit out of Marrakech city, it was simply, I would advise anyone visiting Marrakech please do not miss this horse show. You can buy the ticket which includes the show and diner. On next day we said goodbye to the beautiful city of Marrakech and drove to Essaouria, it was very nice drive. we stopped at Argan oil factory where local ladies were making Argan oil, that is hard work done by hand by ladies there is no machine involved in making Argan oil. The Argan trees are different from Olive trees, they are bigger and very wider than Olive trees. We were told that Olive trees do not grow next to Argan trees. What can I say about Essaouria, it is gem of Morocco, beautiful sandy beach, very nice Medina. We saw the harbor where all the boats are blue in color. we only spent one day which was not enough. We did spend much time in Casablanca, and we could not make it to Tangier. Our trip to Morocco was simply great, people of Morocco are very nice. One should have at least 10 days and spend with two days in each city. We thank Mr. Essaadi and Chakib, we had very nice clean Mercede van throughout our trip. Thank you Chakib for driving us around. We cannot wait to come back to Visit Morocco again.

Outstanding Experience! - Exploring Morocco was an absolute treat, thanks to the local guides who shared their profound insights with such infectious enthusiasm. Each guide transformed mere sightseeing into a captivating narrative. Our chauffeur was more than just a driver; he was a navigator through culture and landscapes, seamlessly blending professionalism with a warm and welcoming demeanor. Awal Travel curated a journey that not only showcased the richness of Morocco but also made the guides and chauffeur an integral part of the immersive experience, from the vibrant Casablanca to the serene Essaouira.
