We only had one day in Morocco for the coronavirus. Our trip with MTC was amazing! Although it was a long drive due to the traffic it was wonderful and our driver encouraged us to take our time at this special place. They certainly didn’t rush us. Our driver was also safe and courteous and made stops for us, even offering us typical Moroccan fruit and bread. Our city guide was a local who took us to the most picturesque places in the “blue city”. He also took us to a typical cheap restaurant. DELICIOUS!!

Hassan was amazing putting everything in its place and checking EVERYTHING on my list! When I arrived in Morocco, Said was my tour manager and I am very lucky to have met him! Everything from airport pickup to hotel check-in, and even scheduling my COVID test, was handled before I could think to ask. I cannot recommend Moroccans to Moroccans highly enough. They customized everything, especially for me and my time there. I will go back and book with them again. To go!!! Go to Morocco!
