Best 10 days trip in Morocco
With Said’s Morocco Day Tour, my 15-year-old son Josh and I took a trip across Morocco. He planned the vacation according to our desired sights and activities. I was hoping to see Ait Ben Haddou and Volubilis, the old Roman remains.
Josh wanted to ride camels at sunset then quad cycle across the desert, which was the most beautiful experience. Thus, Said created a 10-day itinerary that included visits to Volubilis and Fes in northern Morocco, a few days in the desert, and a journey across the mountains to Marrakech.
Neither Hassan nor Brahim, our driver, had any problems. “Take it easy” is Brahim’s motto. You may do whatever you want on your vacation. At half the price of the well-known tour firms located in the U.K., U.S.A., and Australia, this trip offered the best value for money out of all the sites I saw. Furthermore, we were working with a corporation that was familiar with the “real Morocco.” Morocco Day Tour is something I heartily endorse.
Best 10 days Morocco Tour
After an 10-day journey with our driver/guide, Hassan, we are very happy. Morocco came to life for us because of Hassan’s extensive knowledge of and enthusiasm for his homeland.
From a spontaneous encounter with some nomads to a tea ceremony with the local imam, a stroll through a Berber farmers market, or a camel ride in the Sahara, Hassan gave us a true taste of this stunning nation. Many, many thanks from the Canadian Luxes!
10 days Trip Tangier to Erg Chebbi and Marrakech
My partner and I spent fifteen days traveling around Morocco, beginning in Tangier and concluding in Marrakech. We were pleased to have chosen to reserve a 10-day vacation with Morocco Day vacation, even though our primary goal was to see the country by backpack.
I did a lot of research and discovered that the company that responded to my emails the most was Morocco Packages Holidays. Since most Moroccan businesses don’t take credit cards, they asked for a 100 euro Paypal deposit, and the money proceeded without any issues.
Our driver, Ahmed, arrived in Marrakesh on time at 8:30 am and made all of the stops that were agreed upon, plus some extras. We were able to request that he make certain stops because he is at our complete disposal (e.g., stopping at a non-touristy grocery to fill up on beverages, pausing for a nice picture, etc.). Ahmed was really nice, informed, and amiable. In addition to answering all of our inquiries, he discussed his life, his early years, and Moroccan history and culture in general.
We were welcomed and led into the desert by Hassan, the camel guy. The desert guides were kind and the camels were amazing. We had tea, supper, sand surfing, and even some music. The tents were present, but because the weather was pleasant and cool, we decided to sleep outside in the midst of the desert beneath the stars. Before heading back to our hotel to get our belongings and take a shower, we got up early and hiked up the largest dune to witness the dawn.
All of the included meals were excellent, and if we didn’t like the ones that weren’t (lunches), we could ask our driver to drop us off someplace else.
