If I could give Ismail a thousand stars, I would. Fantastic tour! Ismail was an attentive, fun, and informative guide. He took us everywhere we wanted to go (in a comfortable, air-conditioned Mercedes Spinter van)and had great recommendations for hotels, restaurants, and attractions. He knew all of the fun things to do in every city we went to over the 8 days and personalized the tour to accomodate all of our various interests. I would choose this over a group tour over and over! Thanks Ismail!!

Ismail was great. We experienced the beauty of Morocco in 7 fun filled days under his guidance. He was great with kids and all had a wonderful time. Would not be same Morocco without him

Ismail was very caring and helpful to our family of eight, over a one week period, as he showed and described the sights of Casablanca, Rabat, Fes, Atlas Mountains and Marrakech. The camel ride and tent camp were a unique experience. The hotels he selected worked well. His descriptions helped to understand the history and culture of Morocco. The visit to his family home in a small town was a special treat. Both he and our driver were very friendly and professional as we toured the country.

Ismail was a fantastic and informative guide, who worked with us to organise our itinerary. Very easy going and patient, and became very much part of the crazy family adventure through Morocco. His driver Mohamed was also excellent and the van was perfect. I'd thoroughly recommend them for any group or family wanting a personalised tour of Morocco!

Ismail was a great tour guide, he was professional, showed all the sites that were included in the itinerary. Is knowledgeable about the area. Best was when he invited us in his home and we get to meet his family and had a traditional tea and lunch. I would recommend him to all my friends and family members

Ismail was an amazingly generous, considerate, attentive and knowledgeable guide - with a beautiful sense of history and humor. He led us from major tourist sites to the most incredible moments off the beaten track, including hikes, markets, artisans, eats and his own ancestral home. We'll never forget our experiences in the Tinghir valley or the Merzouga dunes, the Atlas mountains or Taroudant's orchards. Ismail is one-of-a-kind. (And the driver he hired, Lahcen, was as professional as they come.)
