Poor communication

Vanessa_C, Nov 2025

Unfortunately this was not a good experience. Although we were informed that our guide had a family emergency, the tour company itself had terrible communication. Leading up there was no whatsapp nor messages with details on pickup - unlike every other experience we had in Marrakesh. The morning we waited from 7:30-9:00 to get picked up at our hotel. We messaged via every possible means and got Via Tour support involved to send us the tour company phone number. Our hotel even called and messaged locally, to no answer. At 1:14pm that same day we were informed of the guides’ family emergency, by the tour company, not the guide. It seems this option is not well run so consider otherwise if you really want to go to this coastal town.

Response from Host, Dec 2025

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback. I truly appreciate it. I also want to clarify that this was the very first time we’ve ever had a situation like this. Our driver had an unexpected family emergency, and we had no choice but to cancel the trip. We immediately messaged all our clients to keep them informed. Unfortunately, in your case, we didn’t receive any notification from Viator, so your booking didn’t appear on our system. We’ve since identified the issue and fixed it to make sure this never happens again. I’m genuinely sorry for the inconvenience this caused you.

Pick-up never showed up

Gian_B, Oct 2025

We arranged hotel pick-up through the app, but the van never showed up. We were waiting from 7:50 to 9:30 in front of our hotel but not one car stopped by nor did we get any messages from the organizers whatsoever.
