Jose F2023-11-06Unforgettable We had the opportunity to view different scenarios during the 12 days trip. Incredible! Hassan was our guide and was excellent!Diana H2023-07-08An amazing experience, I really recommend MOROCCO COMPANION TRAVEL and MOHA is the best tour Gide I ever know After hearing about MOROCCO COMPANION TRAVEL from a friend, I finally fulfilled a lifelong ambition of mine to go to Morocco. I went on a tour with three other companions, and I booked it directly with MOHA, the owner and guide. Was without a doubt one of the most memorable experiences of my life! The most incredible vacation ever! Everything worked out beautifully! The whole time, MOHA was incredible. He was kind, courteous, and polite, and he showed us the beauties of Morocco. The nine days spent travelling were filled with such breathtaking scenery, and his automobile is immaculate and well-equipped. My favourite part was spending the night in a tent in the Sahara Desert and riding camels around the desert. It was also interesting to see how people live in the hectic city of Marrakech. MOHA did a great job selecting each of the Riads. Even though our flight was delayed, he was there waiting for us at the airport, and he was the one who drove us there in the end. The MOHA was excellent in every way, which made our stay in Morocco one of the most memorable times of our lives. The highlight of the trip was getting to know the Berber people; they are a free people, and they are simple, pleasant people who always welcomed us with a cup of great hot tea. I have the utmost confidence in recommending MOROCCO COMPANION TRAVEL to anybody and everyone, and I can't wait to use their services once again. We are grateful to MOHA for showing us around your beautiful land.Gabriel C2022-10-20Muy Recomendable Excelente experiencia personalizada, agregada a la Pasión por su Pais y costumbres de Idir, conocedor a pesar de su juventud de todos los rincones de MarruecosAgostonc2022-07-24Amazing trip in Morocco Over the course of 12 days, we traveled through Morocco. It was a wonderful experience from start to finish. Our guide and driver Youssef took us from Casablanca, drive through Rabat, Chefchaoen, Fes, crossing the Merzouga desert, Atlas mountain range, until we arrived in Marrakesh. Everything was perfect: hotels, local guides, tours. And, believe me… Youssef learned to speak Portuguese!!!miriam ibarra2022-04-18Fez Marruecos Cuando el tour me depositó en Fez en Marruecos, yo jamás había pisado una medina. El casco antiguo de esta ciudad marroquí es su principal atracción que se extiende en un inmenso laberinto. Me encontré en una maraña de calles estrechas y pasadizos que parecen detenidos en el tiempo. Este lugar casi medieval era como el centro neurálgico de una ciudad por demás exótica.La visita de Fez no está completa si no llegas a las extraordinarias curtidurías. Están dentro de un distrito apartado en el que los curtidores trabajan muy duro en el tratado y teñido de los cueros y las pieles animales. No es fácil llegar sin la ayuda del guía. Pude apreciar muy bien el panorama de los toneles desde el balcón de uno de las locales. Ellos pretenden que el visitante compre algún artículo hecho de cuero. Y le gente quiere observar el espectáculo colorido de los pozos de tinturas. Sin embargo, debo reconocer que encontrarme con los artesanos trabajando los materiales fue una experiencia muy interesante. Evidentemente, conocen bien el proceso ancestral y parce que aman lo que hacen. Y el resultado de su labor se ve reflejado en artículos muy hermosos.El hotel Les Mérinides, donde me alojaba, se encontraba en lo alto de una colina, cerca de las ruinas de las famosas tumbas y panteones, por lo que pude admirar el panorama de Fez en Marruecos y su medina a distintas horas del día. El espectáculo es inolvidable. El atardecer en Fez visto desde las terrazas constituye una experiencia excepcional. Las luces de la medina se van encendiendo poco a poco mientras descubres los detalles de la ciudad laberíntica, los distritos, los minaretes de las mezquitas y las calles.Fatima B2020-02-28Viagem inesquecível Com 4dias muito intensos e divertidos,podemos ver bastante coisas isso pq contratamos um guia Youssef que nos levou a vários lugares interessantes e falando português e muito profissional e simpático.
