"Simo was the best! - Simo was the best! From the moment we met him, his energy was infectious. He was so welcoming and friendly, and he made every single day feel exciting. He had a great playlist and was always up for a laugh. We were so impressed by how flexible he was, too—if we wanted to make a quick stop for a picture, he'd just pull over, no problem. You could tell he genuinely loves his job and meeting new people. He made the trip so much fun, and we're so grateful for his positive energy.

Our driver, Youssef, was a true pro - Our driver, Youssef, was a true pro. He was so calm and collected, and his driving was incredibly smooth. We just felt so relaxed and at ease the whole time. He was also really intuitive; he knew when we were tired and just needed some quiet, and he was always there to open the door for us or grab our bags. He was the definition of attentive without being intrusive. His professionalism and quiet care made the whole experience so much more enjoyable. Seriously, he was fantastic

I gotta give a huge shout-out to Bob - I gotta give a huge shout-out to Bob. He was just the kind of person you want on a trip. He had this easygoing vibe and a wicked sense of humor that made every car ride feel like we were just hanging out with a friend. He was so on top of everything—never late, and his car was always spotless. He also gave us some killer recommendations for places to eat that weren't the usual tourist traps. He went out of his way to make sure we were having the best time, and it totally showed. He's a legend

Honestly, the trip was a total blast - Honestly, the trip was a total blast, and so much of that was down to our driver, Zack. You know how sometimes a driver can just be... a driver? Zack was so much more. He had this great knack for knowing exactly when to chat and when to let us just chill and watch the scenery. We felt totally safe with him, even on some of those winding roads. He was super organized, always right there waiting for us, and he even had cold water bottles ready after we finished a long hike. It's the little stuff like that that really makes a difference. He was awesome.

For Nature Lovers and Culture Seekers - We booked this hoping for a little adventure and a taste of village life — we got both. The waterfall hike was stunning, and not too difficult. The lunch, wow — so fresh, so flavorful. We even learned how to fold our own turbans during the camel ride! It wasn’t just pretty — it felt meaningful too. Thanks to Simo and the whole Moroccan Tour team.

great experience definitely worth it - Zack made sure we arrived early at Setti Fatma, which was perfect because we got to enjoy the peaceful atmosphere before the crowds arrived. The hike to the waterfalls was refreshing, and our local guide helped us navigate the rocky paths. Walking along the Ourika River afterward was a great way to cool off, and the scenery was stunning!"
