Stunning

The tour was absolutely amazing. Marrakesh was intriguing and beautiful, the mountain views during the drive to Ait Benhaddou were breath-taking, the Sahara and the camel ride were amazing and the Tighza location extremely picturesque. The whole trip was fabulous!

Everything

Thoughts on Group Leader

Said was great; he was very polite, knowledgeable and helpful. He did a great job keeping an eye on us and I felt safe with him the whole time. It felt he knew before we knew it when we needed a break from driving, a toilet stop or some refreshments. Thank you, he made it an amazing trip.

Advice for Potential Travellers

This is an amazing tour.

A magical experience enhanced by a great group and leader

What a beautiful, welcoming country. There were so many magical moments on this trip – taking a camel into the Sahara, watching shooting stars from our desert camp, walking through the mountains – that it’s hard to pick out a favourite. What I do know is that the experience was enhanced by a lovely group and a knowledgeable, friendly guide. I felt like I really got under the skin of Morocco and saw much more than I would have done solo.

Great Variety and Amazing Locations

From busy Marrakech through the Atlas Mountains to the Sahara desert, this trip covers three very distinct areas of Morocco, all well worth visiting! Marrakech old town – beautiful and plenty of opportunities to haggle for bargains and immerse yourself in local life. Ait Benhaddou was great, and the Berber camp – fantastic. Good facilities even in the desert, lovely home-cooked food (and fresh watermelon) and the opportunity to sleep under the stars on a warm night. Tijhza is a great experience, it’s an authentic Berber mountain village where you can get a sense of how Moroccans live. We had a lovely group and great guide and really bonded over the week.

Standing at the top of a dune near our Berber camp in the Sahara desert, feeling like you're miles from civilisation!

Thoughts on Group Leader

Hamid was a great guy, good company and clearly passionate about his country. He was very knowledgeable and was able to take us to some interesting extra sites to break up the drives, such as an Islamic library and a kasbah in Zagora.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Pack light for the camel ride to camp and take plenty of water. A good water bottle is a must in general, Hamid was excellent at keeping ours' filled up with cold water. There's an early start for the optional walk in Tijhza, but we found it well worth it!

Amazing

This was an excellent good value tour. The guide was brilliant and the trip was varied, well planned and brilliantly executed. I loved every minute.

Most Inspirational Moment

The Sahara - what magical experience.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Hamid was outstanding - knowledgeable, attentive, thoughtful, caring and very funny! I cannot fault him at all.

Advice for Potential Travellers

You don't necessarily need hiking boots...I took them but didn't use them. Accommodation is basic but still great. Respect their culture and cover up. A little bit of shoulder on show is no big deal, but do cover knees etc...it was actually helpful in such high heat to be covered. Take a really good water bottle you can clip to a belt or bag. We didn't need water purification tablets. Throw yourself into it all as Morocco is very special and the people are wonderful.

Marrakech and the Sahara

At 72 l was a bit worried if l would be a stumbling block with the other travelers. None of it. lt was the most amazing trip l’ve ever had. We were looked after from the word go and l never felt the odd one out. lf l did have a hic cup, my friends would help me. They called me the tough old bird!!!

Most Inspirational Moment

The camel ride in the Sahara. When we got to our destination we all decided to sleep under the stars. AMAZING !!

Thoughts on Group Leader

Excellent. No other words.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Be prepared to enjoy

Camels, souks and tagine!

The holiday was fantastic from start to finish. We started from Marrakech and headed to Ait Ben Haddou, a fantastic historic city used as the backdrop to loads of famous films. The following day we picked up our camels and headed out into the Sahara dessert, staying in a bedouin camp. This was the highlight of the trip, the camels were placid and, although the rocking motion takes a little getting used to, it was a generally comfortable ride.
This was followed by a night in a gite up in a village in the mountains, the Hamaam was a great bonding experience and the village women were really friendly.
Marrakech itself was interesting and steeped in history. The tombs and palace buildings were beautiful and the souks were vibrant and fun for trying to grab a bargain!
The food throughout was excellent, although it is slightly repetitive. Tagine is on most menus, the meat was always lovely and tender with an array of veg. Other favourite was the chicken pastilla. Whoever combined shredded chicken and almonds with filo pastry, icing sugar and cinnamon is a genius!
The trip had variety in its hotels and stops. Sometimes it felt like we were on the minibus for agaes, but the destinations were always worth it!

Most Inspirational Moment

Sharing a Hamaam with 10 women I'd only met 2 days previously. I'm usually very self concious, but it was a great and funny bonding experience for the group. The camel ride was amazing, the peace in the desert and the shapes created by the winds in the dunes are hynotic.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Abdellah was a great leader, he was informative with a good sense of humour. He was well organised and always happy to help answer questions.

Advice for Potential Travellers

We didn't need the water purification tablets recommended as there was plenty of bottled water. Take your good walking shoes, not just your sandals. Don't pick this trip if you like a drink every night, alcohol is largely unavailable. But mint tea and fruit juices are great!

Great intro to Morocco

This trip was a great way to see varied parts of Morocco, from city life in Marrakesh to the desert and up to the High Atlas Mountains, where there was a good amount of snow. This meant that there was quite a lot of time spent on the minibus, but there was some impressive terrain to see. In February, the nights and mornings were cold and dramatically different to the temperature in the mid-late afternoon. There were local crafts to visit (rug making, pottery, argan oil production, spice and incense stores) with retail opportunities, the camel ride into the desert, the steam baths and some down time. I really enjoyed the week, and if this is your first visit to an Arabic country, it’s a tough call between Morocco and Jordan, as the latter has the Lost City of Petra, a great sight / site, which Morocco doesn’t have.

Most Inspirational Moment

The visit into the High Atlas Mountains... or maybe the camel ride into the desert... or the souk in Marrakech...

Thoughts on Group Leader

Rashid was very friendly and helpful. He looked after us and gave us a lot of information about Morocco and where we were visiting.

Advice for Potential Travellers

If visiting in the winter, make sure you have clothes for hot & cold weather.

Too much shopping.

The only reason this trip did not receive a rating of poor is sure to the fact of the our guide Rashide. The were good points for example the camel ride and the desert as week as the time in Marrakech. However there didn’t seem much time for anything else, we always seemed to be running late. There was far too much time travelling and most of the stops we made were to places where we were expected to buy something. It would have been nice to have the opportunity to explore more of the sites. The driver was not very safe he seemed to drive far too fast and swing us around a lot which caused our belongings fly all around the bus. In the Atlas mountains we were involved in a car accident which was a frightening experience that lucky didn’t involve any injuries to anybody. Accidents do happen but in this case, as previously stated the driver did not seem to be driving with due care and attention . The hamman in the mountains was posponed until the next day and then cancelled which ment that some of us missed out on the walk. Overall this trip did not live up to expectations and was a disappoint ment. There were some good point, the group was lovely as was the guide, but too much time was spent in the bus with few stops to see the sights.

Reply from Exodus

We would like to thank Rebecca for taking the time to review her holiday, although we were concerned to read that her group experienced an accident, and that some other aspets of the trip were disappointing.  We would like to assure Rebecca that all Exodus drivers hold the appropriate licences to carry passengers, and Rachid, the tour leader on this trip who has many years of experience, has explained that on this trip he did not consider the driving to be irresponsible.  The accident was very minor, involving a local taxi, and fortunately was quickly resolved with no injuries or damage to either vehicle.  We appreciate that some of the roads on this tour, especially in the mountains, are steep and windy, and are sorry for any distress experienced.

 We are sorry for any disappointment caused by the cancellation of the hammam; this activity is offered in a remote village, and unfortunately at the time of the group’s visit there was not sufficient firewood available to provide this, although we understand that an alternative hammam was available upon the group’s return to Marrakech.

 We regret that it was felt too much time was spent shopping.  Generally speaking, the most convenient locations to stop in Morocco with suitable facilities will often have shopping areas.  We find that many of our clients enjoy having the opportunity to browse and purchase souvenirs and local handicrafts, should they wish, but would like to assure Rebecca that people are of course under no obligation to do so.

 We were pleased to read that Rebecca enjoyed other parts of the holiday, such as the camel riding and time spent in Marrakech.  Tom Harari – Senior Product Manager

A true taste of Morocco

Spent a memorable Christmas in a beautiful country with some wonderful people. The trip give you a great taste of what this wonderful has to offer

Most Inspirational Moment

There were so many highlights of this trip but waking up in the desert on Christmas Day was perfection.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Our guide Omar was was excellent. He managed to pass on enough information about the county and trip without making us feel that we were being controlled.

Advice for Potential Travellers

If you are travelling in winter take warm clothes for the evenings as some places are really cold. There is no need to take a sleeping bag with you as there are plenty of extra blankets available in the Gite and at the Bedouin camp if you need them. Walking boots or good walking shoes are needed if you want to experience the trek without risking twisting an ankle.

An unforgettable trip to a great country - Morocco - I will return!

Although there was a lot of travel in the week, it meant we saw, and experienced much more of Morocco – a special country. It was such an enjoyable holiday, and I truly relaxed! The itinerary was well planned so that we did not get caught up in the big tour groups at busy times of day.

Most Inspirational Moment

The highlights were the camel ride and camp in the desert, and the stay in the gite/hostel in the mountains (including the hammam!). The scenery was beautiful and peaceful.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Abdelhadi was a fantastic group leader - very knowledge and enthusiastic. He developed a great rapport with the group, which made the trip so enjoyable. I travelled on my own and the group dynamic to which he contributed, made me feel welcome, and never alone.

Advice for Potential Travellers

In Marrakesh, visit the Jardin Majorelle - but arrive before 9 am to miss the crowds. Don't miss the Berber museum there - it was a real gem!
