Morocco is a beautiful country and would love to come back there again someday. The tour guides are very informative and helpful especially Hamza and Adnan. They go above and beyond their tour of duty. Samira at the Discover Morocco Tour Agency was also very helpful. Most of all Tour Radar was and always been a wonderful source of great tour package and prompt assistance with all the tours I booked with them from past to present.
If you are planning to book a great and inexpensive tours, I highly recommend Tour Radar. Also, if you are planning to tour Morocco, I highly recommend Discover Morocco Agency.

Also the guides were very pushy, one wanted 20 dollar tip for him and 20 dollar tip for the driver, and another took me to places where he can get commission for sales.
They definitely took advantage of me. I don’t recommend this company.

Great service, coordination and arrangement
Friendly drivers and tour guides specially Hamza (Driver) and Tarikh(tour guide)
Amazing country with friendly and welcoming people

You get different drivers and tour guides in every city you go. Even though, it is well organised as they tell you every time what time you’ll be picked up. The only time you have one driver is from Rabat all around to Marrakech which is about a week. Big shout here to Adnan who was my driver for the week. He was an excellent driver even a tour guide from time to time. He was also a great company and took good care of me as I was the only one on the tour. He is a real gem to your company. Big mention to my tour guide Said in Fes, my driver Mohamed(I think) in Tangier and the rest of the drivers and guides.
The desert was a highlight the only thing that could be improved is if there’s an a/c or even a fan in the tents as it was too hot and impossible to sleep.
As for the things that didn’t go so well there were few and I’m sure it can be improved.
First, all the places that are mentioned in the itinerary should be covered by the tour guides instead of them discouraging the visitors to go there. I mentioned few times that I wanted to go to the Saadian Tombs as per the itinerary and the tour guide discouraged me. We also didn’t covered the Menara gardens on the day. Regarding the gardens I was taken there the next morning for 15 minutes but nothing was done about the Tombs although I was promised that on my return to Marrakech I will have an opportunity to go.
Second, the tour in Tangier was poorly organised and we were shoved in a restaurant for a lunch. The lunch was substandard for 200 dirhams per person.
It would be better if the tour guide gives options rather then shoving the visitors in an overpriced restaurant.
Third, the hotel in Fes is hardly a 4 star hotel as it’s old and dilapidated. My room wasn’t very clean as well.
Forth, it should be mentioned in the itinerary that when crossing the Atlas mountings the roads are very winding so people who suffer from car sickness should be prepared.
All in all it is good tour that covers a lot of places and you get to learn a lot about the history. The people are very welcoming and friendly and always ready to help you.
If you thinking of visiting Morocco and seeing a lot of places that this is the tour to go.

It …We booked a 10 day tour around Morocco with Discover Morocco through Tourradar. We had been planning on this trip for quite a while and were excited to move through Morocco and see the highlights. It seems we chose the wrong companies. In general the tour was ok. The best part had to be the hotel selection and the train rides. Every overnight worked well. Beyond that, not much worked well. There are a couple of points that need to be mentioned because they rise above the general disorganization in terms of failures.
Once the shuttle bus picked us up in Rabat things became problematic. That driver should not be driving with other people in his vehicle. This person needs to understand he is Responsible for the lives of every human in that vehicle. He obviously does Not understand this. Several times he crossed a solid line on a blind corner, no view of the road more than one or two vehicle lengths, to over take and pass another vehicle. He also would cross a solid line just before the top of a hill, again with no visibility down the road, to pass another vehicle. I was sitting in the first passenger seat and several times became quite nervous when he drifted into the middle of the road and oncoming cars would be laying on their horn all the way past us. This person did not instill the confidence that he is mature enough to be driving with other human lives in the same vehicle and have their best interest in mind. To me this is a major safety issue that folks need to consider before booking with Discover Morocco.
For me the number one thing on this full 10 day trip was the sunset camel ride into the sand dunes. That was a complete failure. The “guide” chose to push back the start time that morning by one hour. Then it took them 45 -50 minutes to figure out how to load the luggage. Once on the road the driver went into crazy mode trying to make up time. Along the way he collected, not one, but two speeding tickets which took another 15-20 minutes each. As the sun was setting, we were driving through the last village instead of being on the camel or out in the sand dunes. We completely missed it! Then the next morning, we were denied the camel ride back. When I mentioned my displeasure to the guide at the last hotel, he took zero responsibility and blamed the company for scheduling it that way.
When we would stop for lunch, our “guide” would open the van door, point at the restaurant, and walk away with his phone. We would fumble around trying to figure out what to do as other guides brought in their group and had them getting food before we could get a table.
There were several other problems along the way and everyone we encountered points to someone else or some other company as the one to deal with. Basically, I would strongly suggest you find another place to schedule your tour and use another tour operator.
I’m sure Discover Morocco will respond that they are fixing the issues and there are no worries. But looking at the past complaints, that is and will not be the case when you arrive. The AC still doesn’t work, The bus seats are still broken, etc, etc.

There was no daily itinerary so no one had an idea what was to be expected for the day and what supplies they might need. Such as going on a 3-hour walk as opposed to sitting in a van for 7 hours.

An unforgettable experience! The tour was well-organized, the guides were friendly and knowledgeable, and every stop was full of beauty and culture. Highly recommend it to anyone visiting Morocco!

From the moment we arrived, the experience was immersive and captivating, thanks to the knowledgeable and passionate local experts who guided us.
The tour provided a deep dive into Morocco’s rich culture and history, from the bustling medinas and stunning architecture of the imperial cities to the breathtaking expanses of the Sahara. Each stop was meticulously planned, offering a perfect balance between exploration and relaxation. The local guides were exceptional, sharing fascinating insights and stories that brought each location to life.
Organized and on time! Super friendly drivers and guides. Would recommend! Highlight was of course visiting Chefchaouen!

The guides in each city were OK, but we would have preferred to have one guide for the whole trip that we could get to know a little better and engage with. The hotel room we had was very nice, but the hotel itself is far away from downtown, so the dining options were limited. We had a problem getting our return train tickets to Casablanca, but fortunately our first driver took the trouble to resolve it. All in all, this was a good tour, but with some tweaking, it could be great.
Samira and Meryem were very kind and helpful. Got all the informations that I need for the tour in this unfamiliar country.

We stayed at 4 star hotels, some of which would not make that standard elsewhere but overall they were okay. Next time I would pay the extra for 5 star. They were very organized once we arrived. We would have liked more information sooner than the days before the tour - like what to expect and where we were staying - but given the different itineraries they were trying to coordinate, I get it. Our tour went from Tangier (loved it!) to Casablanca (not worth it) via high speed train, then an 8 hour very tight ride via van to Fez (definitely worth it) and then a 12 hour trip to Marrakesh (worth it!). The 12 hours was not worth it so we skipped out and took a flight instead for $100 each. Our group were exhausted when they arrived by van. We had a company rep with us everywhere as well as a driver. Each location had a local guide to give us a tour of the city. The quality of the guides varied but we loved Bashir in Tangier and Fatima in Rabat. Our driver Hamza in Tangier took very good care of us including driving us to Chefchaouen for a day. We didn’t like the carpet, scarf, argan oil and leather shops that seemed to be part of each tour and were really just sales jobs. After a while we just said no when we were taken to yet another carpet store!
Overall I gave the tour four stars because it was far less expensive than the other tours available, so it was good value for our money. The tour company did look after us and looked after all the details. Breakfasts were included at each hotel. More information up front would have alleviated our anxiety. We were picked up and dropped off

The Sahara stay over nite in a luxury tent was cool!
We visited such fantastic places the culture & history was very interesting.
The tour organisation was excellent and the tour guides and drivers were always punctual & very informative
The hotels provided were very good & in good city locations
Overall this tour was great from our start in Casablancato to our finish in Marrakesh ,& we would recommend this tour & company without any hesitation.

D…The destinations on the itinerary are superb. However, Discover Morocco, the local tour company, has an inefficient business model that resulted in a LOT of frustration for all members of our group. Drivers are subcontracted for each transfer, along with freelance guides in each city / location. This meant that there was no daily timetable, meals were not planned (we had lunch at 3.00pm three days running), restaurants for lunch were not vetted but left to the guide's discretion. In Ouzoud at 'Chez Mounir' three people got sick after lunch. Hotels are rated 4-star but the management in each one was terrible: hot breakfast served cold (Tangier), breakfasts without protein (Marrakesh), artificial orange juice (Marrakesh), etc. In Rabat the hotel receptionist Nadia JITI screamed at everyone, creating havoc in the lobby. In three hotels our room was immediately over or under a nightclub with drums, guitar, DJ and loudspeakers until 2.00am (Tangiers), 4.45am (Marrakesh) and 11.00pm (Rabat) on three of the six nights. Clearly Discover Morocco reserves only the worst rooms in each hotel for the TOURADAR group.
Two excellent drivers were Omar (Tangiers-Chefchaouen) and Adnane (Fez-Ouzoud-Marrakech) and two excellent guides Mediha in Meknes and Said in Fez. All the other guides were incoherent (Rabat), not bothered about safety of the group (Abdulillah in Marrakesh), or just plain rude and obnoxious (Nourreddine in Tangiers).
There was a massive amount of WALKING, STEPS, and HILLS every day with 10-12 hour days, so future travelers should be duly warned. This is NOT the right tour for anyone who is disabled.
On several tours, other travelers were added to our group, so we had to observe their time constraints to end the tour. EG. In Tangiers, an individual traveler had to be back at the station for 4.00pm so our city tour was cut short to drop her off.
Everyone in our group was expecting ONE DRIVER and ONE GUIDE for the trip, as stated in the tour description (professional driver, professional guide), not 'drivers' and 'guides' in the plural. The advertising is very misleading and requires correction for truth-in-advertising.
It was a wonderful trip. Only two things. The guide in Marrakech was dismissive and rude. He marched through the Medina without letting us look at things, forget buying.

The hotel Villoubilli was not 4 stars.
The trip to desert and the hotel Diddis in Dadea was outstanding.

It was a great way to get a taste of a bunch of the big cities and some of the smaller ones too, so you can choose which city you can return to next time for a longer stay.
Hotels were average- some could have been a little better- but overall I think the necessities of cleanliness, safety, and location were met.
Transportation was good. We had some great drivers- especially for the longer hauls(adnan and yosef) who were really great!
Guides-were good for the most part. Some went above and beyond and some just did the basic quick tour.
Food/included breakfast- mostly at the hotels were pretty good. Most had the standard Moroccan items and some of the American/ European items as well.
I actually really liked this tour, it was full of information and gave a good overview of Morocco. Everything went well, I do think they should add some free time to the tours before returning to the hotels or going back on the road- this would really make it great, otherwise I would definitely recommend this tour! Thanks & safe travels!
Recommend it. Though would suggest spacing it out more

Too much information and culture and smells and colours and flavors. The schedule is quite full and you will wake up early and have long hours in the van, arriving quite late in your hotel because Morocco is a big country and the distances are big between cities. I think we made around 4000km. Adanane , the driver is the best. He looks like to be your friend travelling with you. The Hotels are fine (I took 4*) and the Moroccan people are sweet and nice and happy.
