I highly recommend this trip. It provided an excellent cross section of Morocco - urban cities, souks, mosques, mountain retreats, desert camping and ocean vistas. The accommodations in the riads were outstanding and the inclusions were focused on local businesses and cooperatives. Moroccans are warm and welcoming and our stay felt genuine - like you were visiting family or friends. If you get Mohammed Aglili as your leader, you won the leader lottery !!! A warm, kind and knowledgeable leader who went above and beyond.

A great trip with a great guide who made all the difference. Salem Mohammed Kalili was an amazing guide! I can’t say enough about him.

From the first inquiry to the final trip to the airport, Intrepid staff were available and ready to answer questions and smooth our travel plans and travel questions. We could not have picked a better travel company. Our guide, Hicham Bouhiazen was beyond amazing.

Morocco is a beautiful country with kind people. Our trip leader Hicham Bouhrazen was knowledgeable and helped restore my faith in the world

This was my first intrepid tour and my only regret is not finding out about this company sooner. Absolutely perfect travel experience that didn’t feel too restricting. Lots of freedom and exploring!

So glad I decided to do this trip! Having a local guide and transportation, accommodation and activities planned somewhere I don't speak the language was great. Both the trip leaders Brahim and Hamid were amazing - true ambassadors to their culture and country. I can't wait to come back to Morocco to explore other areas. Highly recommend including Essaouira!

A fascinating trip with a thoughtful, well organised and highly knowledgeable guide - Fouad Obermyr. Food was great and the other aspects, sights, accomodation and experiences exceeded my expectations. We had an intellectually disabled man in our group and he was really well looked after.

Amazing trip with excellent group leads! 100% recommend!

I just returned on 11/14/23 from the Premium Morocco highlights with Essaouira trip. I loved every minute of it. Our guide, Wahid, was funny, knowledgeable and organized and really made the trip. Wahid helped celebrate the birthday of a fellow traveler with a birthday cake - such a nice gesture! The local guides were excellent. We felt safe with our driver Jamal as he negotiated the crazy city traffic and hairpin turns through the high Atlas. The accommodations were a nice mix of colorful riads and hotels. The beds were so comfortable. The posh Widiane Resort was a perfect respite in the middle of the trip. Sitting poolside for an afternoon was heaven. The food was wonderful. My favorite was lunch in a private home and selecting our fresh seafood from the market and having it cooked for us. This trip provides a great overview of Morocco, from the countryside, cities, mountains and the Atlantic Ocean. The Moroccan people were so kind to us throughout the entire trip. I would like to return and explore other parts of the country. I would use Intrepid for any other trip in my future.

Morocco in a nutshell but a very comfortable nitshell!
