Hana –
The tour was excellent! Our driver was incredible and took us to see and experience so many places, while catering to our every request with the utmost patience and flexibility. Some highlights included visiting Chefchaouen (the “Blue City”), riding camels and ATVs through the dunes in Merzouga, following a fantastic tour guide through the labyrinth of the Fez medina, visiting the beautiful coastal cities, and eating some truly delicious food -especially the tajine and pastilla dishes. This is definitely a tour I will be recommending to friends.
