“Great Experience – Really more of an ADVENTURE!”

My nephew and I traveled Morocco for 12 days last month using Experience it! Tours.  We selected Experience it! because we wanted a customized itinerary and the concept of traveling as the only persons on a “tour group” appealed to us.

Our trip started in Casablanca and covered a wide range of activities: many historical sites including Volubilis, hiking in the High Atlas, camping in the Sahara, in depth tours of kasbahs, the Fes medina and Marrakech. All aspects of the tour exceeded our expectations.  The accommodations and meals were excellent. Our driver/guide (Youssef) was well spoken, educated, pleasant and very knowledgeable about all aspects of Moroccan history. He definitely went the extra mile to provide us with a great experience -really more of an adventure.

I have traveled internationally since the 1980′s and found the Experience it! has combined the advantages of group tour  with individual travel.  The modest extra cost is well worth it.  Experience it! has a good team on the ground in Morocco . We stopped by their office in Fes and had a nice chat. I highly recommend the Experience it! tour if you want to see Morocco One additional note. We saw fewer Americans in Morocco than expected. Apparently, the Arab Spring has discouraged tourism. We felt completely safe in the country.  This is an excellent time to see Morocco.

Morocco October Tours

One of the best times of the year to travel to Morocco is October. Although it does not offer the flowers of spring, October’s weather is perfect. October has cooled off from the harsh summer but does not have the rain of spring.

October 2012 – Something to remember
One thing to keep in mind if you are planning a tour to Morocco in October of 2012…the Aid El Ahda (Sheep Sacrifice). This year, the largest holiday of the Islamic Calendar falls around the 26th of October. The country nearly shuts down for a day or two. Guides are difficult to find, shops are closed, and some restaurants aren’t open. Just remember to plan ahead around these dates…

Our Morocco Tour for October
This year we would like to highlight the Fabulous Fortnight Tour offering 14 days / 13 nights. One of our most popular tours, this Fabulous tour takes you into the Rif Mountains to Chefchaouen, the ancient medina of Fes, the Sahara desert, Marrakech and more… For those looking to experience the real Morocco, this tour is perfect.

“Good memories from our Trip!”

Yes we are back in Croatia, back to our daily tasks, but with good memories from our trip :)   The tour was great, well prepared itinerary, even though as always we wished we could stay few days longer as the time went by really quickly.   Our driver Majid was wonderful, very comfortable to be with and happy to adjust the trip to our wishes.

All the accommodation was good, with great hospitality,  I can happily recommend them. Particularly good was our stay in Dar Itrit, where the owner Estrella prepared us wonderful dinner and excellent breakfast. We also enjoyed very much our stay with Georgina and Massimo in Marrakech again, where we tasted some of delicious dishes. The trip to Berber village was interesting. The hosts and their family were lovely. We learned how to cook tajine and make mint tea. Then we had a tea making competition, where I won and received a diploma :)

We are very happy we made this second trip with your company, your service was very professional and  straightforward from initial inquiry to finalizing the tour; thank you again!

Best regards,

“Fabulous Time in Morocco”

We had a fabulous time in Morocco. It is a remarkable country. The entire tour went off without a hitch, thanks to your help in planning. Ahmed was terrific – friendly, knowledgeable and an excellent driver (no small thing in Morocco!). He was very flexible and gave us good advice along the way. The accommodations ranged from good to great, with Riad Kniza in Marrakesh being the most spectacular. We really enjoyed the desert as well. It was an incredibly memorable trip, and we have been recommending Morocco, Experience It! and Ahmed to friends and family. Thank you for everything.

“It Was All Fantastic!”

We arrived back home a few days ago and I just want to let you know that we had a wonderful time in Morocco.  From the first dealings with you to the organization in Morocco to meeting the wonderful smiling face of our driver, Youssef.  It was all fantastic!

It was a journey that extended our imaginations: rich in colours, smells, experiences. Youssef was a classic. Highly educated, completely in love with his country. He was a genuinely lovely man and has now become our friend!

I will be a strong supporter of your company to anyone who is even faintly interested in going to Morocco.

Thank you very much!

“One of the Most Interesting and Different Travel Destinations!”

Our trip was excellent.  I would like to thank you and your colleagues at Experience It, especially with all of your assistance with our stolen credit card (in Lisbon).  Every detail of our trip in Morocco was handled perfectly and efficiently by the Experience It staff from my initial inquiry  to the moment we left Morocco.  I highly recommend Experience It and I will write a 5* review on Trip Advisor so that others will know.

My favorite part of the trip was the time that we spent in the Sahara.  This travel experience ranks in our top 2 most unique travel experiences and I would highly recommend it.  The camel ride was fun and the guide was very entertaining.  The desert was beautiful.  I was very impressed with the operation at La Belle Etoile.  The deluxe Berber tent was quite comfortable considering where it is located.  It was pretty amazing that there were showers and toilet facilities in the room.  The dinner that was served was quite excellent as well.

Dinner at Riad Dar Dmana

Where is the best place to eat in Fes? There are number of great restaurants in Fes, however, I would say that Riad Dar Dmana offers some of the best authentic Moroccan food. If you have a free night, you would want to consider making a reservation at the Riad Dar Dmana.

Last night my family had the opportunity to have dinner at the Riad Dar Dmana. Hayat, the main cook, once again surpassed our expectations with delicious food. We started the meal with the most amazing Moroccan salads. We could have called it quits after the first course of 12 different Moroccan salads. The flavors were just like a home-cooked meal.

The main course was an outstanding chicken tagine with prunes, apricots, and pineapple. My family demolished the tagine Continue Reading

“Everything was much better than I could have imagined”

Everything was much better than I could have imagined.  Our driver was great.  The riads were wonderful.  You did a great job of answering our questions promptly.  I would urge anyone to go to Morocco and make arrangements with your group.

“Simply put- PERFECT…and then More!”

It was, simply put, perfect – and then more.  We loved all of it.  All of the logistical things went right on schedule.  Plane landed on time, cleared customs and there was Hamid.  I was and am so glad we revised the itinerary to leave Casablanca as soon as we landed (and I would recommend that to anyone arriving early).  The adventures began immediately as we didn’t know where to look first.  The scenery driving to Rabat was spectacular and so green.  Staying in Sale the first night was a graceful introduction to what was ahead because the English owner was so helpful and explained a lot.  She provided a delicious dinner and breakfast.

I can’t say enough about Hamid.  If he isn’t your best driver, I don’t know who would be.

The real benefit of the trip was that it was more educational than I expected and we were able to talk to many more Moroccans than we ever would have on a group tour.  Trips like that waste so much time, and you only get to meet more Americans.

“One of the BEST VACATIONS we have ever had!”

It was one of the best vacations we have ever had.We’re in our 70’s and we’ve been on a few! I’m sure Shereen will comment on the earlier experience with you as we were not too involved.

Rachid, our driver for the rest of  the trip,  looked after us like he was our guardian angel. We were like family by the end of 11 days.

The highlight was definitely the desert experience. The 30 min camel ride to the dunes and back were all we needed.  We were glad to have upgraded to the deluxe tents. The young man who was our host was so outgoing. He gave us a wonderful time.The food was plentiful, the tents very comfortable, the entertainment an extra bonus,  and we had great time!
The guides both in Fes and Marekesh were very professional. We enjoyed our tours with them very much. Continue Reading
