Wonderful country, fantastic tour company!
We did a 10-day tour to Morocco and covered several places – Chefchaouen, Fes, Sahara, Dades Valley, Marrakech, and Casablanca. The trip was completely planned with pit-stops, local guides, and fantastic hotels/riads by Mohammed and the team. This is a family run, local Berber company and they far exceeded our expectations! We were truly taken good care of and every need was met. We couldn’t have done this trip without trips to Morocco! Thank you!

Fabulous Trip To Morocco
We recently went on a private tour of Morocco with Trips to Morocco. The dynamic duo of Hamid & Ali did a superb job of guiding us through their country. From Casablanca to The Blue City of Chefchaouen, Fez, Daddes Valley, the Sahara & the wonderful Atlas Mountains and much more, we were so well looked after. Their choice of accommodation mainly Raids were of a high standard. The Sahara camping trip didn’t disappoint. We saw & did so much, even some of the long treks in the car were entertaining, especially Hamid’s upcoming wedding ritual. Trips to Morocco is a family concern & they treat you like family, even entertaining us for lunch in the family home. A very big thankyou guys for a terrific holiday.
