    Thank You for an Amazing Trip!

    The entire process of planning and booking of the entire trip was effortless and stress-free thanks to Abdellah and Said at Original Travels! They are quick to respond to our queries before and during the trip. We would like to thank the local guides – Cherif (for Fez) and Hanaan (for Marrakech) – as they showed us around the local markets and shared much with us about local culture and experiences. This was one of the highlights of the trip for us!

    A Dream Come True

    Our 12-day trip to Morocco was a dream come true with the amazing support of Ali and Said. Samir, our dedicated driver, was not only very knowledgeable, but kept us on time and was very respectful and professional. Our visit to Casablanca, Rabat, Meknes, Volubis, Fez, Merzouga, Skoura, Ouarzazate, Marrakech and Essaouira were all fascinating, each with its own uniqueness. I had not heard of Original Travels before but their reviews were outstanding, and it has lived up to all my expectations. Thank you all!

    Great Experience Planning and Visiting Morocco

    Wow, I can’t say enough how grateful I am for the services provided through experts in Morocco at Original Travels! This vacation was initially scheduled for March 2020 and was rescheduled due to the pandemic. I worked with Ali on the initial itinerary and was able to find a way to cram in Chefchaouen, Fes, the desert and Marrakesh. Our vacation was a mix of guided drives, some guided tours, time spent with local families and visiting Nomadic camps, and exploring on our own in the cities. I hope you get the opportunity to experience it someday and if you do, I highly recommend booking through Original Travels.

    Morocco was Nothing Short of Perfect

    Our personally curated trip to Morocco was nothing short of perfect. Our guide/driver Tarik was knowledgeable, charismatic and fun. We really felt taken care of from the beginning of our trip until the end. Tarik made sure we had the best possible experience and ensured we saw the most of Morocco in the short time we were there. We felt like we were with family. We enjoyed exploring and traveling through the beautiful country of Morocco and hope to come back someday. Everything was perfect from accommodations to transportation and everything in between. The team really went above and beyond and changed our views on traveling going forward.
