Our guide and driver met all of our needs and were quite responsive to any last minute requests. Some highlights of our trip included visiting the ancient Roman city of Volubilis since our son is a fan of history, and the sights of the streets of Fez and the Medina of Marrakech were stunning. The guide Mohtar was super informative and friendly and always did his best to support our needs. (Sometimes he spent too much time in shopping area.) It has been a smooth experience from start to finish. Highly recommended!!

I recently went on the Discovery of Morocco tour and it was an amazing journey through this beautiful country. Our tour started in Casablanca and took us to a variety of destinations including Marrakech, Fez, and the Sahara Desert. Our guide, Hassan, was a wealth of knowledge and really helped us to understand the culture and history of each place we visited. He was also great at organizing all of the logistics, including our hotel accommodations and meals. One of the highlights of the trip was visiting the medina in Marrakech, where we were able to try a variety of traditional Moroccan dishes and shop for handmade crafts. The Fez medina was also a must-see, with its narrow streets and impressive architecture. But the real highlight of the tour was our visit to the Sahara Desert. We took a camel ride through the dunes and watched the sunset over the vast expanse of sand. It was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Overall, I highly recommend the Discovery of Morocco tour for anyone looking to experience the beauty and culture of Morocco. It was an unforgettable trip and I can’t wait to go back someday.

Excellent tour choice full of variety, beautiful sights, and a unique cultural experience. Exceptional and professional services throughout the trip. The hotels, tour guides, restaurants and transportation were all quality. The best part was that the tour never felt rushed. Eleven long days full of activities to help you get the true Moroccan experience. Book this trip today—you will be glad you did!

My husband, Bernard, and I loved every moment of the Morocco trip!!! Rasheed was a fantastic tour leader. He took excellent care of all of us (his “family”, as he called us during the tour). He was so knowledgeable about history, customs, culture, etc. , and patiently answered all questions as he explained everything to us. We loved everything we saw and did: from Rabat, Roman ruins, palaces, tombs, calls to prayer, stray cats, camels, snake charmers, belly dancers, Fez, mosaic factory, the desert, Atlas Mountains, wild apes, Berber villages, Marrakesh, Casablanca, camel ride through the Sahara Desert, to Erfoud, etc., etc., etc!!!! This trip was like no other that we have taken, and we would not hesitate to go on another Eskapas Travel tour!!! Thank you all for doing such a great job!!!
