The whole trip was very well organized, and we were able to get a great impression of Morocco. Still, it would be a good idea to take another look at the current hotels to see if we can choose better ones. Regarding the explanations given in the minivan, it should be noted that speak to the tourists through the loudspeaker more clearly and loudly. Because if you’re sitting all the way in the back with the AC on full blast, you can’t hear everything clearly or catch what’s being said. Even after mentioning it several times, nothing changed. That was a shame.Show more
