Bart Haag Treasures of Morocco – Premium AdventureWhen we agreed to this trip, I was nervous to say the least. Our guide Lahcen and the people of Morocco immediately put all of that to ease. We had an amazing trip. Lahcen and our other tour guides taught us about the culture, history, Islam faith and community of Morocco. It was unbelievable. I’d also be remiss not to mention Abdul, our driver. The care he took in getting us from destination to destination was awesome!!
Heidi Fisher Treasures of Morocco – Premium AdventureI went into this trip with very little knowledge of what to expect. I am leaving Morocco with a true appreciation of the people, the culture, the landscape and the history. The trip was very well curated and we were extremely well taken care of throughout the entire experience. Our guide, Lahcen, was incredible; he shared so much of himself, his humor, his culture and was very willing to answer anything we asked about politics, religion or history. The guides in each city/town were also very informative and insightful.
