Our trip to Morocco was incredible! Hassan and Ali were the absolute best. They were super nice and always willing to help. They showed us the coolest parts of the city and even hooked us up with an awesome desert tour! Riding camels and sweeping through the dunes was amazing! They shared their food with us and told us interesting stories about Morocco. We couldn’t have asked for more friendly and welcoming people. If you’re ever in Morocco, you meet Hassan and Ali!

Our first trip to Morocco with the kids! We were a little nervous since it was outside of Europe, but let me tell you, it was amazing! I highly recommend our tour guide, Hassan from Trips Around Morocco. He was super helpful and planned everything perfectly. It was great he’s such a nice guy and you can trust him.
