Does this tour include a camel ride? Photos show that but the itinerary says only 4x4. Can we substitute camel for 4x4?

The transportation on this tour will be; Private air-con minivan/coach, 4x4 vehicle, walking. It may be possible to arrange a short camel ride locally, but not in advance of this tour.

For the hotel stay, are there upgrade options available? Do you have a list of hotels with pictures?

There is the option to add a single supplement if you wish to secure your own room. Otherwise we consider these hotels upgraded so there are no further upgrades that can be made. I encourage you to check the hotels used via the Full Itinerary on the G Adventures website - the hotels used are listed under each day and you can Google them to see reviews and photos.

What kind of weather can I expect in Morocco?

Climate in Morocco can be both very hot during the day in summer months (up to 50°C) and cold at night in the mountains in autumn, early spring and winter (down to -6°C). Summer months, from April to September are very hot throughout Morocco. Winter months November to March can be cool to cold, especially in the Atlas Mountains, with high probability of snowfall. Most Moroccan buildings are not equipped with heating, so without proper layers you will be cold at night.

Do we need to be careful with our way of dressing?

While visiting mosques and other religious monuments you should dress modestly, cover your shoulders and you shouldn't wear short shorts or skirts. Outside of capital cities and the more touristic centres, local dress is often more conservative and as a matter of respect we ask that both men and women are aware of this and recommend loose-fitting clothes with your shoulders covered.

How good are the hotels and accommodation along the tour?

On this trip you will stay in comfortable local hotels. You can expect the rooms to have air-conditioning, private bathrooms and breakfast will be included daily. Some hotels may also have swimming pools and/or other recreational facilities.

Which is the average group size for this tour?

Groups are quite small, with a maximum of 12 and an average of 10 people.

Is the arrival transfer included?

Yes, arrival transfer is included. Please contact our customer support for further information.

I want to add a single supplement to my booking, can I do this online?

When booking the single supplement, there should be an option in the notes to let us know you wish to include the single supplement. This then comes through to us when we complete the booking and we can add it on.

Morocco Journey was a whirlwind trip of a lifetime. From Fez, Volubilis to High Atlas and beyond, every day awoke our senses. Our CEO Aziz worked with local guides to provide in depth and local perspectives and conversations at each stop. Our driver Jamal was pleasant, timely, and above all safely navigated us through city traffic and mountain switch backs with ease. The choice of accommodation was also appreciated and as diverse as Morocco. The warmth, welcome and way-finding G Adventures offers I made our journey a most memorable one . Highly recommend.Show more
