What an amazing, magical, eye opening, life affirming, joy inducing experience we had in Morocco! Youssef, our guide...
What an amazing, magical, eye opening, life affirming, joy inducing experience we had in Morocco! Youssef, our guide along our 8 day journey was friendly, helpful, informative, and a pleasure to spend time with. The knowledge of his country along our travels was insightful and made us appreciate all we saw even more. Too many places we visited to describe them all but I need to mention Issam, our guide in Fez - so friendly, informative, and fun. Mustafa in Marrakech was delightful and the joy in which he shared his knowledge was infectious! We feel like we have 3 new friends in Youssef, Issam, and Mustafa! From the itinerary to the riads - an amazing tour. Run - don’t walk and book one for yourself!!Show more

Last May, we had the chance to explore the Sahara Desert after a friend recommended Mustafa and Escorted Morocco Tours. We joined a 5-day Morocco Sahara tour, which took us through the breathtaking Erg Chebbi dunes. We were so lucky to have Mustafa as our guide, we truly cannot praise him enough. He is one of the most amazing and special people we have ever met: warm, genuine, incredibly smart, and deeply knowledgeable. His insights went far beyond Morocco and his Berber roots, and our scenic drives to the desert were filled with engaging, meaningful conversations on many different topics. The accommodations were equally memorable and full of character, especially Dar Blues in the Dades Gorges. The Tiziri Camp in the Sahara was simply exceptional, a perfect blend of authenticity and comfort. We spent two nights there, and we honestly did not want to leave. Thank you, Mustafa, for showing us the true Moroccan experience and for opening our minds to new perspectives that have touched our lives in such a positive way.Show more
