We did complete a satisfaction survey at the end of our holiday but I have been meaning to drop an extra note to say what a great guide Jamal was. He has the type of personality that gets on with anyone. He was knowledgeable, obliging, humorous and went above and beyond our expectations. He really contributed to our overall enjoyment of the holiday.

The city guides and drivers - in particular our driver Mohamed (who was with us for a week) were also all very good!

Many thanks.

We had a very good trip, and appreciated the diversity of this vast county. We saw the ocean, mountains, deserts, busy cities and little villages. Our guide was very professional, and stayed true to the itinerary which we had agreed prior to departure. He was knowledgeable about Morocco and its people. ”

We had a wonderful time on our tour! Abdellatif was a very conscientious guide, always making sure we had what we needed and willing to answer all our questions. He was friendly, competent, enthusiastic, and a pleasure to work with. The tour itself was really interesting, we enjoyed all the places we visited. Dades Gorge was definitely a highlight, plus it gave Hassan, our excellent driver, a chance to show off his skills. All the accommodation were excellent and the food was absolutely delicious. Thanks for an amazing experience.”

Useful tips for planning your tailor-made holiday to Morocco

How long would you like to holiday in Morocco for?

Morocco's beautiful imperial cities and spectacular landscapes span the length and width of the country yet it's possible to visit the most popular sites in the space of a week starting in Marrakech and heading east to the Sahara with plenty of interesting stops along the way. With 12 days or more at your disposal you could complete a circuit around Morocco that includes destinations along the southern coast and in the Rif Mountains north of the country.

What sort of accommodation would you prefer?

Hotels in Morocco run the gamut from simple, affordable properties to lavish resorts built in historic buildings. Compared to Western-style standards of comfort, hotels in Morocco tend to be a little lower so Morocco's 4 star is more like a Western 3 star and a 5 star more akin to a 4 star. For many travellers a visit to Morocco wouldn't be complete without spending at least one night in a riad, 18th or 19th century medina townhouses set around a patio garden that has been transformed into a guesthouse. Often stylishly renovated with plush furnishings, mosaic-tiled bathrooms and roof terraces with seating areas, riads tend to have far fewer guestrooms than hotels and so offer a more boutique accommodation experience. Another unique overnight experience popular in Morocco is a desert camp on the edge of the Sahara where you can sleep on camp-style beds in permanent tents and enjoy a traditional Berber barbeque dinner under the stars.

What internal transport options would you prefer?

Morocco's relatively compact size means that internal flights are rarely needed and that it's possible to travel overland stopping at places of interest in between the main sites. We provide a car with driver/guide for all Morocco tailor-made holidays, getting you from A to B and taking you around the sites. Although the network of routes is limited, trains in Morocco are comfortable and affordable and can be a great option for those flying into Casablanca and heading south to Marrakech where our fleet of vehicles are kept.

What pace of travel would you be comfortable with?

This will depend largely on how long you have to spend in Morocco and what destinations you wish to cover though it's usually possible to work in the occasional morning or afternoon at leisure no matter how short and jam-packed the itinerary. If you prefer a more laid-back holiday experience, aim to spend more time in each place so you don't have to move from one place to another each or every other day. Alternatively, if you're looking to see as much as possible then you can spend full days out and about touring with your guide or specialist local guides depending on the site. Of course, if you want time at leisure we're more than happy to work this into your itinerary.

Are there aspects of Morocco that you are particularly interested in?

Beyond the popular touring sites there are plenty of unique cultural experiences to be found in Morocco whether it's a cooking class perfecting tagines or a spot of pampering in a local hammam. Film fanatics can visit movie sets that have appeared in the likes of Lawrence of Arabia and Gladiator while hikers can follow the ancient migratory routes of the Berbers through the Atlas mountains. Let our tailor-made team know what inspires you and we'll design your dream holiday itinerary to match.

How you can make the most of your budget

The easiest way to make your budget go further is to travel in the low and shoulder seasons when the weather tends to be colder but hotel prices much lower. Hotels are, on the whole, cheaper than riads offering the same standards of comfort though there's no reason why you can't use a mix of accommodation types on holiday. With a budget to work to, our tailor-made team can recommend the best combination of hotels and touring options to suit what you have to spend.
