Our experience in Morocco organized by your company was extraordinary. What makes or breaks such an experience is the quality and personality of the guide one works with. In this regard Youssef was nothing short of outstanding in every regard. He has such an ebullient outgoing personality, he is so excited about the country and its heritage, he knows every nook and cranny in every city and town, he is so well versed in the history of the country and makes it come alive when one visits the various sites, his English is excellent and he is timely , punctual and most reliable. We cannot say enough to praise him. The few days after I returned I missed his presence.

The accommodations you chose were overall excellent, particularly in Marrakesh, Dades and the tent. Having the riads in the medinas is particularly attractive. The desert experience and the camel ride are especially unique and the visit to Fez was my personal highlight. I  would have no hesitation whatsoever to highly recommend your company to anyone who is planning to visit Morocco.

Thank you for making for a most memorable experience.

Our group of 4 has just finished an 11 day, 10 night tour of Morocco with Experience-It tours; the planning and execution of the tour were handled most professionally by the staff of Experience-It. I highly recommend that anyone considering going to Morocco with your company rely on your expertise. (I often forget that expertise is a lot of what you’re paying for when you opt to see a country with a tour company.)

As an example, I had not considered that the choice of a driver would figure so importantly in the enjoyment of our Morocco trip. First of all, our driver was very safe and skillful; something we quickly came to appreciate. Morocco is about the size of California; you are going to be spending a lot of time with your driver if you you want to see a lot of what the country has to offer. Our driver was very sharp, spoke good English, was personable, and was a fount of information about every area we went to. In addition, we particularly enjoyed talking with him about social, cultural, religious, agricultural, economic, etc. issues in Morocco. As well as the many sights we saw, this personal contact will be a well remembered part of our trip. I can only assume that Experience-It always shows the same expertise in choice of drivers as it showed in choice of our driver, Hamid Zerhiri.

Realistically, there were glitches during our trip, but generally of a type that is inherent in any real travel–we had to dodge donkey poop in the Medina in Fes, the weather was sometimes too hot for me, we ran into flash floods near the Sahara, etc. But avoiding this kind of stuff would mean never traveling anywhere–besides, such experiences often make for the best stories later.

I am only too happy with our trip and am happy to provide some feedback.

I had never heard of Experience IT Tours until I accidentally came across some reviews on the Trip Advisor website. Saw the name Youssef appear a few times with glowing recommendations, as were a number of other names and all reviews spoke highly of them all to. It was the positive reviews that drew me to make my initial enquiries. I can say that from my first enquiry I felt comfortable. I always received a response, and even though there was the tragic bombing of the Argan Café in Marrakesh, my concerns were appreciated and answered honestly.

I never felt pressured by your company and my first contact was from Aaron and then later in the process Ruth. Everything was followed up. Aaron’s suggestions as to suggested upgrades was appreciated and I’m very glad to have taken his advice. The information package sent to us was very useful and not full of useless advertising propaganda as some companies do.

When Youssef arrived to pick us up we felt comfortable straight away. He was a happy, friendly person who had a great sense of humour.

The itinerary was fantastic. We did a lot of things but never felt that it was rushed or crammed. Morocco was great and the diversity was amazing. The accommodation was great.

We felt safe and comfortable at all times and Youssef made sure we wanted for nothing and missed nothing. It was very lucky for us that we had someone who was so passionate about his country, his family and his fellow countrymen. At no time did we ever feel that he was just doing his job. We consider Youssef to be a very good friend. Continue Reading

We had a fantastic time on the tour and would be more than happy to recommend Experience It in future. We found the company very easy to deal with from the very beginning, which was great especially since we were already traveling when we started our discussions with you.

Special mention definitely must go to Aissa, who was a great driver – full of information, always going above and beyond to be helpful and able to answer our many questions as we made our way around the country. He even introduced us to his family and welcomed us into his home. He is a great asset to your company and we would not hesitate to recommend him as a driver if our friends and family were taking an Experience It tour. Continue Reading

The pre-trip experience was great with your company very amenable to my inquiries and the changes we wanted.  The final result was exactly what we wanted and needed as we were short of time for the trip.

Our guide Ahmed was tremendous and very informative with a great sense of humour.  The first Riad was an experience getting to but the accommodation was great.  The walk up through the markets was again an experience but we had already seen something like that in Vietnam.

The next day was a big drive but a great trip with Ahmed being tremendous on the way.  The accommodation in Fes (Riad Jaouhara) was beautiful and one of the best of our five week trip. Continue Reading

First I want to say that we LOVED morocco WOW just amazing!! I’ve heard a lot about it but never thought it would be like that… Denis is already thinking about our next trip back… all the hotels and riads were amazing!!!!  Sooo beautiful! I have to say me and Denis loved Jamal! He was excellent!!! He was so much fun driving with and so knowledgable it felt more like driving and taking a trip with a friend then a driver..he was awesome! I’ve told so many people about our trip and they have all seen our pictures and they’re talking about wanting to take a trip too! So I will definitely recommend the company and Jamal to drive them around…thank you so much for everything!

Trip to Morocco
Last spring, my nephew who was planning to study Arabic for two months in Fes through his university invited me to meet him in Morocco in August when he was finished.  I was facing a major birthday in the summer and decided that in lieu of bungee jumping, zip-lining and parasailing all on that same day to prove my ‘youth’, I would get my thrills by accepting his invitation.

Experience It! Tours
Friends who had traveled in Morocco recommended Experience It! Tours.  Aaron Johnson, living in Morocco, responded quickly and capably with online information and I was able to design my own itinerary, using the services of the tour company when and where I needed them.  The company arranged all of our accommodation including half board meals and most of our transportation and their rates for these services were very reasonable.  The information package they provide prior to travel is well-designed and complete in basic travel information about Morocco.   Continue Reading

Better late than never! I want to thank you for the wonderful arrangements for our recent  tour of Morocco. We will certainly recommend your company to our friends, especially if the tour guides are of the quality of our guide, Youssef. The four of us thoroughly enjoyed the experience and herewith some comments:

Our tour guide, Youssef Maamri was really the best, always on time and demonstrated his excellent knowledge of the Moroccan history as well as dealing with all the necessary arrangements. He went out of his way to make our trip really enjoyable and nothing was too much trouble for him, especially considering the heat and the fact that it was the month of Ramadan as well. Continue Reading

Overall we really enjoyed the trip. Our driver Namir was incredible, very nice, helpful. Overall the best was Namir. What a great guy! Please give him our regards. Hakim in Fez was also very good. Said in Marrakesh was so so….not a real people person although knowledgeable

We loved the choice of towns/cities especially Fez. I personally liked the Argan Oil experience the best, my husband probably the fact that he was able to windsurf in Essouria which was an added surprise. Continue Reading

We are two Canadian girls who traveled safely through this beautiful and Muslim country. Why are we so apprehensive to experience things that are different than our own country?  Our challenge to any of you who are reading this as you are obviously interested in Morocco, is to pay your  deposit and enjoy the flavor of Morocco.

If you are border line on a) whether Morocco is safe to travel or b) whether or not worth seeing, please be advised that as two well-traveled, young, Canadian females we have nothing but great things to say about Morocco.

On a whim, we booked our trip through a company online called Experience It! Tours.  They work with any budget, any time frame and any interests and/or activities you’d like to do/see.  We completed a 10-day tour of Morocco all the way from Casablanca to the Sahara Desert and back with many fun experiences and photos along the way.
