    Fantastic journey through Morocco! Explore guide Abrihim was knowledgeable, patient and fun. He adjusted the schedule as needed to optimize our experiences in Morocco. Food was great. A couple of long days in the van but stops were built in to stretch our legs and learn about the people and/or food of Morocco. Highly recommend this trip!

    The highlight was definitely the night in the desert, the camp was lovely, it was small so only our group was there.
