Top Marrakech Private and Luxury - page 3

The full day trip included everything it promised in its marketing. Omar, our guide was excellent. He is a local Berber from the Atlas Mountains and therefore was a wonderful source of genuine information about the region, history and culture of the Berbers. The hike was amazing and incredibly beautiful. We escaped the heat in Marrakech (43 degrees) and enjoyed 25 degrees in the mountains. The lunch provided was very taste and filling.

Yazim our driver was wonderful, well versed and knowledgeable pick up and drop off were smooth and easy The three day adventure included 3 lunch stops. Food was good at each but double what we normally pay which is disappointing First nights accommodation was a holiday hotel. After trying a room with a broken bed, then a second with a broken AC we settled into a third room and went out to find dinner, having no faith in the hotels free 8:30 pm dinner. Their free breakfast continued to disappoint The Sahara experience by contrast was a total delight. The camels, the sandbording, the accommodations all perfection. Dinner was late evening 9:00 pm. But that’s a function of sunset activities Todgha Gorge is spectacular would have been fun to swim but time was limited. We did enjoy the walk. Sit Zinbet is a very interesting location. Photogenic and historical. Unfortunately the local guide chose to give a long talk about movies in the middle of a dry river bed at 42 degrees in the sun which set the rest of the tour up for failure Tinghir was a nice walk through some farm land followed by a rug sales pitch. Fortunately I was able to escape the rug sale and found a wonderful bakery where I spent a very pleasant half hour chatting with guides. Overall the three days were well worth the price. The group was fun to hang out with and the Sahara exceeded all expectations

This was a top notch walking tour of the Souks in Marrakech, about 3 1/2 hours duration with a slow pace and plenty of explanation of the Souks as well as Islamic history and culture. Very informative and our guide Saleem was the best. Learned a lot of history as well as current Moroccan culture. I would recommend 110%.
