Morocco

What an experience!

To put it briefly, we had a great time.  What an experience!  A real education in another way of life.

We were very pleased with the whole trip.  Yousef was an excellent driver.  We could feel that he had gone through the Atlas mountains many times.  We were very pleased with the hotels you chose for us and the service of the people at them was very professional.

The trip to the desert was a real experience.

Wonderful Trip

We got back last night from out tour of Morocco. It was wonderful.
 
I will send a more detailed email later, but wanted to let you know that you should double whatever you are paying Ahmed Hadji. He was absolutely terrific!
 
He made the trip easy and fun. He has a wonderful sense of humor and, I believe, a better command of the English language than I have. He was professional, took care of all the details and really seemed to enjoy showing us his country. I can't say enough about how much we enjoyed his company, relied on his advice and appreciated his help. He was great, as was the whole tour.
 
Many thanks to your company for putting together this wonderful trip and for having staff as good as Ahmed.

"A lifetime memory"

Thank you for a wonderful trip to Morocco. The model your company has developed is abosolutely super. Namir, our driver, went out of his way at every opportunity to deliver to us a safe and informative look at his country. We were amazed at the depth of information given to us through the guides that were chosen and the care and attention that was paid to us throughout the trip. We have travelled extensively and have not experienced this depth of enjoyment in a country that we had no knowledge of. Namir checked on washrooms, restaurants and even came up with a birthday cake for my wife on her birthday. You have a winning combination of professional people, caring attention and competitive pricing that made our trip a lifetime memory. Thank you. Steve and Wendy
   

"Lots of good memories"

Thank you for organizing the trip for me.
 
It was very interesting and I come back with lots of good memories.
Morocco is very amazing country and I was very happy to get the chance to see it.
 
Most memorable would be Chefchaouen, despite the cold and rain/ snow. Amazing blue town surrounded by ever green (and white from snow) mountains. Also Sahara experience was very nice.

"Amazing time in this beautiful country"

Our tour was wonderful.  It was well organised and moved at a pace that was not too fast, or slow. We experienced so much in our 10 days.

Everything went smoothly and Namir, our driver, was a wonder. He was knowledgeable, thoughtful and thoroughly obliging. He managed to help us do whatever we wanted. Through him we were able to understand Morocco and its culture and history.

He also became a great friend to us all, especially our children aged 9 and 17, keeping their needs in mind all the time. He even took our son for a haircut and Mark Moroccan CD shopping in Marrakech. Louis still sports his buzzcut (identical to Namir's). Namir's recommendations for restaurants and extra activities on our free days were great. He was always concerned for our wellbeing and made our trip a pleasure.

We all had an amazing time in this beautiful country. Thank you all, especially Namir.

Rose, Mark, Ellie and Louis

   

"Morocco was definitely a highlight"

We are happy to be home but Morocco was definitely a highlight in our three month trip.It is great to be given the opportunity to provide feedback for your tour, so here goes!

Driss was an absolute wonder! He was a skilled and careful driver and kept the vehicle in tip top condition. Driss can be relied on to handle any situation with exceptional ease. Our time with him was very enjoyable as he has excellent interpersonal skills and a great sense of humour. His flexible response to our requests was a highlight, as we felt we could request anything reasonable and Driss would make it happen with a smile! We were impressed with Driss' fluency in a number of languages. He was able to answer all our cultural questions in depth because of his facility with English and because he genuinely wanted us to understand more about the country of which he is so proud. He would be just the right person for leading luxury tours, meeting the high service expectations of such clients in every respect. We greatly appreciated that there was no 'hard sell" from Driss.  Driss is a class act and a huge asset to Experience-It Tours!

"We will not hesitate to recommend Experience It! Tours"

We're back at home in Hong Kong with some wonderful memories of our Experienceit tour of Morocco which went without a hitch right from the start to the finish. We have no doubt that the success of the trip was in no small way due to the tireless efforts of our driver/guide Namir. He is an individual that truly enjoys his work and that was communicated to us in a myriad of small ways. (Even finding some shoelaces in the medina when mine gave way) The itinerary based on your 13 day tour gave us an opportunity to see virtually all of the country and to experience the culture of the people on a first hand basis.
 
While in Fez, Namir was gracious enough to invite us to his home where we had the opportunity to meet his lovely wife, experience a lunch of some of the best Cous Cous ever and to enjoy the antics of his two beautiful daughters. A truly happy family.

"Superb Trip"

I write to say a very big thank you for all your efforts in planning such a superb trip for Barry, James and I to Morocco in November. We had a truly wonderful adventure and talk about our experiences, the sites, smells and tastes often. It was a perfect holiday and Morocco served as a stunning backdrop for our reunion.
  
Driver
We were picked up by Ahmed from Marrakesh Airport and had the pleasure of his driving, local knowledge, company, friendly demeanour and smiles, and assistance until he left us in Fes. Ahmed was one of the highlights of our holiday. Nothing was too much for him and he went out of his way to make our experience extra special and greatly assisted us in translating and even helped us to buy train tickets that we required after our official tour ended. He was very caring when one of us became unwell. He was polite, punctual and left a lasting impression on all three of us. We would highly recommend him. The car was also very comfortable and was clean throughout.

"Wonderful Experience in Morocco"

Thank you for a wonderful experience in Morocco. We really enjoyed the length of the trip, as it fit it with our holiday break. The trip you planned was well organized, meet out travel requests, and included a wide variety of experineces in Morocco.

We were pleased with the "go as you please" feel with our driver. Rostom Badarane was excellent at being flexible. He was accomodating to our schedule, wants, and needs. His easy-going attitude made for a very relaxing vacation. He was very respectful, spoke english well and easy-going. This was particularly helpful when our luggage was lost for 8 days. He took us to supermarkets to get what we needed, made multiple phone calls in our behalf, and drove us out of the way to locate our luggage. Rostom had excellent recommendations for restaurants and helped us find the items we wanted to purchase. He was very concerend with our sercurity and safety as women travelers.Rostom was very accomodating!!

"Fantastic Experience"

I was meaning to write you a short note about our experience in Morocco.  But it’s taken me until today to get sorted out with work and home stuff. The entire tour was extremely well organized.  The camel trek and night at the Sahara was the highlight of our trip and far exceeded our expectations. Our favorite city was Fez and we enjoyed getting lost in the labyrinth of the Fez medina.
 
Rostom, our driver, was an excellent host and driver throughout our stay with him from Casablanca airport back to Casablanca.  He was always thoughtful and made our trip an amazing experience.  His English was excellent; he drove safely and surely through difficult mountain passes and through long roads through the desert; and he always conducted himself with professionalism and integrity; and he was a genuine pleasure to be with.  He also did an incredible job catering to all our requests (especially Meknes and Volubilis) and went out of his way to make sure that we would experience the authentic side of Morocco.  He was very courteous, on time and was always thinking of making sure that our daily schedule allowed for maximum sight-seeing but still have time for relaxation.  He was very knowledgeable about the country and its culture, and was great about sharing such knowledge.  My sister and I were very lucky to have him as our driver.

"You guys do an amazing job"

All of us had a fantastic time in Morocco, and everything you did to help us organize the trip went very smoothly.  You guys do an amazing job.  Thank you, and please thank Jeff for us as well in helping us sort out our driver request.  Hamid Zerheri was so attentive and wonderful, and he helped to make our trip the great experience that it was.  He knows the art of making travelers feel comfortable and feel as though they are in good, competent hands.  Our first driver was not as experienced in what it takes to make travelers feel at ease. He may just need more time and mentoring.  Thanks for arranging to have Hamid take his place for us - it worked out just great.

Our guide in Fez, Hakim Mohammed, was so unforgettable and such an asset to your company too.

We hope to return to Morocco sometime and won't hesitate to have your kind assistance once again.

With much appreciation,
Michele Nov 2009
