Located next to the mosque of the Kasbah, the Saadian tombs are one of the only remains of the Saadian dynasty that reigned over the golden age of Marrakech between 1524 to 1659

    Everything was very well organized and an amazing trip. everybody can book this tour with full trust.

    Nora as tour guide is very informative and the driver (forgot the name was keeping us safe the entire trip. It was worth the trip if you don't have enough time.

    Let me begin by saying the best part of our tour was when our guide Norma left us. She had us rushing through the souks for approximately 3 hours. The only time we stopped is when we chose to shop on our own. We weren't able to stand still and take in the sights long enough, we even made it clear on many occasions that two of us had leg injuries and needed to slow down. Good thing I have a steady function on my camera. Norma started off the tour by telling us we will not be visiting everything on our itinerary because it would take 9 days not 9 hours. Instead, she proceeded to tell us had went ahead and picked the points of interests she felt we would like. She never even bothered asking us three women on the tour what we wanted to see. We were all in agreement that we felt Norma was pushing her religious beliefs on us, instead of providing us with the historical facts of the region. She kept using the phrase "us Muslims" over and over. In addition, Norma overly shared information on trees and native plants and how her religion used them in their daily life. Lastly, I want to be clear our driver was extra accomadating (took us to tour Menara Gardens. One of the women on the tour had asked Norma at least four times she wanted to tour this palace). Our tour guide Norma never checked in with the tourist to ask what we would like to see or do. Although, she was a nice lady she is HORRIBLE at her job!!

    Our guide Ismail and our driver Omar were outstanding. They made sure everyone in the group was taken care of and is having a good time. I highly recommend this tour. It was very informative.

    I hate to be a Western tourist saying critical things about a service in developing, postcolonial country with a tourism economy, but I was encouraged to write a review to warn others after sharing my experience of this tour with friends. I will start off by saying that I was provided with everything in the advertised itinerary, and that the driver was professional and nice. I did get what I paid for. The less pleasant aspect of the tour was what I got on top of that. The guide was outwardly pleasant, although oddly he didn't really provide any commentary except with respect to the Bahia Palace. Other reviews make positive reference to a female guide--my guide was male (I don't recall his name) and it's possible that my experience was significantly different due to this specific guide's involvement. Not just because of the dearth of commentary but, more significantly, because he clearly was receiving commissions from vendors in the Medina to funnel his guests to their businesses and make it awkward for them to leave without spending. As we approached the Medina he advised me that we were going to go to some shops. I immediately thought "here we go" and I told him that I didn't intend to buy anything. He said we'd check them out anyways, and I didn't protest because...I was on a tour in foreign country and he was my ride back to my hotel in a different city. First shop: Pharmacy/spice shop. I was herded into a basement where an employee showed me some wares and talked about various spices. I heard her out, thanked her, said I wasn't interested and went to leave. The guide directed me over to the owner, who told me it was rude to leave a store without buying anything and made comments about how I come from a rich country. The guide finally left with me after I asked him to leave multiple times. Second shop: Gift shop. I was led around by a shopkeep showing me wares. I did see a knickknack or two that was worth picking up for a larf, and when I inquired as to price the shopkeep refused to answer and just said he'd show me more things and that if I buy enough things he'd give me a good price. He kept trying to show me clothing despite me telling him I wasn't interested. Eventually I left him mid-pitch to go to the guide and ask to leave. The guide again tried to get me to stay in the shop and hear out the shopkeep and I told him that I paid for a tour, I felt uncomfortable in the shop, and I wanted to leave. The guide obliged. Third shop: Silk scarf shop. I was shown the process of them making the products, which was admittedly kind of neat. They then began the sales pitch. I actually did offer to buy one, but stated that I didn't have cash (I needed what I had to tip the driver/guide/camel guy) and offered to pay with a credit card. They first claimed not to have a credit card machine, and tried to make some arrangement with the guide for me to give him money and him to get it to them, before relenting and bringing out a machine. This was a red flag. There had been discussions of payment in Euros, then an amount displayed on the machine that would have been acceptable in MAD but extortionate in Euros (tenfold difference), with no indication of what the currency was. I asked them what currency this was in, and the guy with the machine flipped out, screamed at me and said it was in MAD. I walked out while telling the guide we were leaving. The guide realized the tour was a disaster and tried to salvage it saying he hoped I still had a good time, and I still tipped him generously as a message to him that it wasn't that I was a cheapskate, but rather that I wasn't a rube. I was assertive enough to not get fleeced and honestly found the series of events funny enough to not be mad about it, but I am writing this review because I could see the situation being extremely distressing for certain customers (e.g. young, female solo travelers). I was very cognizant of the fact that I was following the guide around a city I'd never been to, in a foreign country, away from the city where my hotel was. It was a bad situation to be in that put the customer at a disadvantage in the event of conflict, and the guide was clearly exploiting that. It was also obvious that visits to the actual points of interest were shortened in order to make time for the vendors to ply their wares to me, which wasn't appreciated. P.S. - I expected this to be the case, but just to be clear, even though the camel ride is said to be included, the guy managing the rides expects a tip. I came prepared and accepted this beforehand, but there is potential for awkwardness there if you don't.

    We were in Casablanca for the day with our cruise. We bought this as an excursion. We were worried the whole time about getting back in time. The passenger van was warm. Didn’t see the Marrakech market we expected, which was disappointing. Great typical lunch and loved the camel ride.

    I regret buying this tour. Firstly you sent me a driver who did not explain how this trip works. He kept quiet most of the time, seem reluctant to answer our questions and his English is not up to par. I thought to myself if this is going to be like that the entire trip, might as well call it off. He turned on the radio in the car disregarding whether we wanted it or not. He takes long coffee breaks and we had to wait for him to finish. On the return leg he asked permission for a detour for personal reasons. it was all about himself and not us, the paying customers. And there is no bottled mineral water in the car. Then when we reached Marrakesh he handed us to the guide. Then we understood he was just ferrying us to Marrakesh to our guide who also turned out to be a disappointment. This guide kept walking ahead of us and at one point we lost him. So we decided to wait on the spot for him to come and look for us which he did when he realised we were not with him. Shouldn't he exercise some patience knowing that tourists like to look around a bit and take photos? He seems to be afraid of being in the sun. And he has a mean look about him. I dont blame him for that. Perhaps he was born like that. However that didnt add to our comfort. So you can understand why I will NEVER recommend this product to my friends. I will recommend it only to people I do not like. A really horrible experience compared to the tour the day before where we had an excellent driver cum guide who spoke well and had a sense of humour; so unlike these two curmudgeons. it would not be fair to say that we did not meet anyone nice on this trip. In fact we met some very nice beings; the camels.

    Noura was an amazing knowledgeable guide. Personalized the tour to our specific needs and preference of gift choice, to be able to remember Morocco. Thank you Noura! كانت نورا دليلاً مذهلاً واسع الاطلاع. إضفاء الطابع الشخصي على الجولة لاحتياجاتنا الخاصة وتفضيل اختيار الهدية ، حتى نتمكن من تذكر المغرب. شكرا لك نورا!

    Norma was very knowledgeable, and made the entire tour relatable and could tell she really loves her job. She made she we had the best experience possible

    Nous avons trouvé l'excursion très bien. Par contre le guide devait traduire pour 22 personnes en espagnol ce qui fait perdre un peu de temps . Ne pas nécessairement faire du shopping ou trop longtemps. Mais à part ça on a passé un excellent moment
