Super fun and organized! - This was a very well orchestrated day trip that met the needs of everyone in our party from toddlers to great grandmother! Our local guide was very knowledgeable and genuinely made an effort to meet all our interests. Najib looks after everyone as though you are part of his own family. He is well organized and knows the areas! I can not thank him enough for making our time in Morocco so enjoyable and at the perfect pace for all of us.

Need anything? Najib will handle it! - Najib and his guides are all knowledgeable and accommodating! They planned great excursions to the Atlas Mountains, Essaouira, and many day trips to Marrakesh and the Medina (including an excellent food tour!) and we’re easy to communicate with whenever our large group had requests. Need anything? Just ask Najib!

Amazing tour company - Najib helped our family organize a 15-day stay in and around Marrakech, and we had an absolutely wonderful, easy holiday. He suggested and organized trips (like a hidden treasures of Marrakech tour, a day of food tasting) that were well structured, planned, and very fun. We were able to fully relax knowing we were in the best hands. We would highly recommend this company!
