Fabulous experience - These three sites, especially Volubilis and Meknes are must sees for any trip to Morocco. The Roman ruins at Volubilis were expansive and well excavated. It would have been helpful to have a brochure so we could identify the different sites as we walked, but they do have local guides. The guide in Meknes was absolutely superb. Fluent in both French and English, he described the history of the city and the importance of each site we visited. There was also a Spanish translator for the Spanish speakers. Lunch at a local restaurant in Meknes was terrific. All in all, a fabulous experience. It is important to note that there is a lot of walking on this tour, so those who can't manage 3 hours plus a gentle climb at the ruins may have difficulty.

Amazing - Mohcine was our driver and he was so good! We got a private car and he was so nice and helpful. He tailored the tour to our needs and even let us play nice songs in the car and we had a lot of fun! His car was really nice and spacious as well. Would 10/10 recommend this tour.

Nice round trip to Meknes - We had a very nice day with Hassan as our driver for this day. He spoke English well and because we were lucky enough to be in front of the bus, we could chat with him nicely. He has told us many fun facts about the country and the area. But also what life is like as a Moroccan. The trip itself was well and truly Moroccan, wrong? No, it's different here. The rules are fluid/stretchy and traffic problems are solved with each other. And it finally comes out right. Luckily they don't drive fast so it never gets really unsafe. The locations we stopped at were interesting. The first was at ruins of the Roman Empire. We had some bad luck here with the weather but the coffee was good and you could go to the toilet. Second stop and the last were good and the weather became sunny so then it's soon good. Hassan knew how to tell fun facts. In Meknes we had a 3 hour fun and saw some nice things. We did not use a local guide because our experience with a group is that the first three people who stand with him hear what he says and the rest get little to nothing. It’s also because their English has a very strong accent and with lots of ambient sounds, which you soon have in Moroccan streets and alleys😉, listening becomes difficult. I honestly admit that I may suffer from it a little more than the younger generation or because I suffer from noise deafness because of my work. All the less had a nice day and we were dropped off neatly in front of our apartment.

Good day trip, and price. - The trip was good, and the driver was efficient and good. I felt the time given in Volubilis was too short and would like to have more time there than inMenke's Medina or at lunch. The restaurant chosen by the tour company was OK, nothing special. The tour in the Medina was fine, the guide was very good and did not take us to any tourist trap.

Driver very well, Volubilis very well, Meknes not highlighted - The driver was very nice and friendly. On the other hand the visit of Meknes was absolutely null because the guide dragged his feet and did not offer any interesting visit. Information or repetition should be requested as it does not speak to its audience. Please find motivation when we come to discover your country the desire is there, do not kill it!
