    Amazing 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!!!
