					I recently had the incredible opportunity to tour Morocco with Sahara Exploring Expedition, and our driver Ali made the entire experience truly unforgettable. Ali was not only exceptionally friendly but also incredibly knowledgeable about the culture, history, and hidden gems throughout our journey. His warm hospitality went beyond expectations when he graciously invited us to his home for lunch, giving us an authentic taste of Moroccan life. Touring with Ali and Sahara Exploring Expedition was the highlight of our trip — I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a genuine and enriching adventure in Morocco!

					Favorite Travel Experience! This past November I went to Morocco with my friend. Our guide was Ali and we could not have asked for a better guide. He was knowledgeable about the country and took the time to teach us about the history. Thanks to him, we learned so much about what a beautiful country Morocco is. Ali organized the perfect trip, including activities, must see spots, and great riads/hotels. We started in Casablanca and visited many cities like Rabat, Asilah, Meknes, Chefchaouen, and Marrakesh. We got to experience medinas, the desert, and all that Morocco has to offer. We felt very safe the whole time and Ali was very attentive, responsible, and always available for anything we needed. He also knew great spots for food - so be sure to ask him for the best local spots. We really enjoyed this trip and I strongly recommended that anyone going to Morocco should use Ali and Sahara Exploring Expedition.

					Book this tour! Ali is the absolute best of the best! I cannot recommend this tour enough!! We went to Morocco on a family girls trip (just my mom, sister, and I) and we had such a spectacular time. Our guide Ali was so incredible and so attentive to detail, we spent 10 days driving around Morocco with him, where he would take us to all the different places we wanted to visit and in each place he would hire a city born guide and they would give us a more detailed tour of their city.The planning was great, we were able to tell him all of the spots we wanted to visit and he made the perfect route and added recommendations and things he knew were a must do. We spent months trying to find a good tour and we are so happy we found this one because not only is it amazing, but its also super affordable! There were so many tour companies offering way less for 3x the price.Regarding our main guide Ali, he was so welcoming ever since he picked us up from the airport. He speaks a bunch of different languages (Spanish, English, French, Italian, etc.) so he is able to communicate with everyone. He was always on time and never left us alone. Being 3 girls in a country we were not familiar with, we were a little nervous regarding security and other things, but Ali made us feel so so safe. Little things like my sister leaving her book in the car, he would have it neatly placed for her in the morning or when my mom would accidentally leave her phone charger in the car, he would come back to the hotel we were staying at to drop it off. So many things were he just went out of his way to make us feel comfortable, I cannot appreciate it enough. If you are wondering whether to book this tour, take this as a sign, 100% do it and request Ali! We know he will treat everyone as amazing as he did us because there were 2 people that recommended him to us, so he is extremely consistent. Apart from him being great, every single other guide he hired was amazing! From our guide in Fes, to the one in Marrakesh, they were all extremely knowledgeable of their city and would all accommodate to what we wanted to do/see. Overall, this trip was so amazing and I recommend it to anyone and everyone! Extremely wonderful people and customer service. I do not have one single complaint! Also, all hotels where great, we did choose like 2-3 that were not part of the tour and we had to pay ourselves, but all the ones we stayed in that he recommended where phenomenal!

					Great trip to Morocco We went on a trip to Morocco for 2 weeks,  3 couples together, and Ali organized the trip for us.Communication with Ali was efficient and fast, Ali had time for every question and change we requested, starting from the planning stage, and throughout the entire trip.We were accompanied during the trip by Rashid and Mohammed, two drivers who took care of any problem. They were charming, and greatly contributed to our enjoyment of the entire trip. They were knowledgeable about Morocco, its people and way of life. They were careful drivers who knew the road well, knew how to direct us to interesting places and make recommendations when necessary and gladly responded to every request.The program prepared for us, the accommodations and the guides chosen during the trip were all excellent.We really enjoyed Ali's organization and the trip with Rashid and Mohammed, and we are already thinking about the next time.

					Unbelievable trip!! Ali organized an amazing trip for us! The driver picked us in our riad in Marrakech,and we crossed the atlas on our way to Merzouga Desert. We stopped in Ait Ben Haddou, we passed the Roses Valley and we spent the night in amazing hotel in Dades Valley. Next day we continue our trip until we arrive to Merzouga and meet Ahmed our host and guide. He is very friendly and really good host. At the beginning of the desert we ride a dromedairs during 45 minutes until the bivouac, we contemplain the sunset in the middle of the ride. Completely outstanding! Finally we arrived to the bivouac and they offered us an amazing tea and nibbles, after that we had dinner in their amazing restaurant , amazing food and service, the staff there was really nice and kind, the chef cooked for us an amazing dinner and breakfast. During the first night, we were singing and playing drums around a fireplace. You will see the stars incredibly shining at the desert, Next day we went to the Black Desert, Nomad campsite, to eat a berber pizza, shopping, etc.. with Ahmed who was explaining to us everything about their culture and his experiences in the desert. Trully reccomended!! Thanks for everything Ali, Ahmed. It was a pleasure to meet you!
