Is this trip right for you?
Ramadan is an annual month-long festival, during which travel can be a rewarding cultural experience, however some regular services may not be available during the day, such as restaurants or cafes, and occasionally travel can be disrupted by events. Your leader will adjust the itinerary accordingly, but please consider this when selecting your travel dates. You’ll find dates and further information in the ‘Climate and seasonal information’ section of the Essential Trip Information.

This trip was exceptional. The guide was professional, relaxed, informative and flexible. The itinerary was very well thought through and the 2 night stays made it relaxed.

Hotel rooms were below the quality and size I would expect for a Premuim trip. The itinerary was good because there was a nice mix of experiences and destinations.

Excellent trip to Morocco on the Premium Highlights Tour. We had a wonderful guide. The accommodations were very comfortable. The van was very nice, with ports to charge electronics. The driver was excellent. The food was delicious and healthy. We got to see a wide variety of places in Morocco, including the Medinas of Fez and Marrakesh, the Roman Ruins in Volubilis, the resort in the Atlas Mountains and the desert. We ate in both restaurants and in the homes of local people. Very good service and delicious. Very enjoyable, with no missteps.

The sights, sounds, and flavors of Morocco offer an adventure for your senses. The people offer kindness as the soul of the country. Intrepid offered a perfect balance of all -- packed days, peaceful nights, a chance to meet folks in their homes, and lots of historical input. Our guide, Youssef created an outstanding vacation experience for us! We're so grateful!

Excellent tour. This is a highlights tour so there are two very long days on the bus to cover a lot of ground. Fes, Marrakech and the Agafay Desert were the best stops. Transport was in a 16-passenger bus which was spacious and comfortable for our group of 10. I am a solo female traveller, age 63, and I felt completely comfortable and safe on this tour, including walking after dark in the squares.
