8-day Morocco Adventure: Imperial Cities & Sahara Desert Trek

We stayed with the driver for 2 weeks! Mr. Zola is very patiently person and we would go back to have him as our driver again in the future

Lots of sights to see. I really enjoyed the drive through the local scenery and towns. Our driver/guide for the entire trip has been very helpful and patient with us. Zak has been respectful and polite the whole time. He was flexible in meeting our needs. This whole trip has been very educational and gave me an appreciation of local Moroccan life and culture. If I have to make any changes, I would limit the number of cities to visit and to shorten the driving distance between each destination.

We had such a great time on this grand tour of Morocco! This tour is super comprehensive and shows you all of the highlights of Morocco ranging from the beautiful blue city of Chefchaoen to natural wonders in the Atlas Mountains like a gorge and beautiful rock formations to the Atlas Movie Studios where The Mummy and Game of Thrones were filmed to the souks (marketplaces) of Fes and Marrakech to Argon oil and rose cooperatives to Roman ruins in Volubilis to the UNESCO heritage site Ksar to palaces in Marrakech. A truly special highlight was the visit to the Sahara desert where we did camel tours in the sand dunes at both sunset and sunrise, and the luxury camp was amazing and included both dinner and a traditional show. The riads in Fes and Chefchaoen were beautiful and had great decor and breakfasts. I want to give a special shout out to our driver Amine who was so kind and went above and beyond to take us additional places beyond the basics of the tour and made our trip very fun!

Super tour of lots of Morocco which exceeded all our expectations. Well organized and well paced. The coach was comfortable - Mustafa a great driver. Accommodation and restaurant choices all good. Aziz our guide was helpful, informed , friendly and knowledgeable. All round a great experience .

My friend and i took thé 10 days morocco tour from Casablanca suggested by Morocco First Gate . It was a lifetime expérience . WE yad thé chance to explore so many places with flexibility. Our driver Youssef was above expectations. Freindy and expériences .

Had ana amazing 10 day Morocco tour from Casablanca with MFG. We visited Rabat, chefchaiuen, Fes, Sahara desert, Ait benhaddou and Marrakech. The city guides in Fes and Marrakech were very friendly. Our driver /guide abdel was very polite and had very good experience. Don't hesitate.

Our tour was very good to see the whole of Morocco and the different cities. Our driver, host and guide Anir was excellent. He was attentive and knowledgeable. Thank you for everything.

A great experience for our family with three kids of 11 ,12 and 14. A big bonus as well for the possibility to see some out-off city landscape with valleys and villages in the way to the dessert. Don’t forget to bring tip for the best camel man who works hard for taking beautiful sunset pictures of you.the stunning desertic landscapes worth the journey.seeing the nomads was also a highlight

Our 10 days morocco tour from casablanca to marrakexh through chefchaouen ,fes and Sahara desert was amazing. Our guide abdel took good care of the group . the hotels were comfortable abd the tour is affordable.

INCREDIBLE! This was a trip of a lifetime. I am unsure how to begin but I will say that this tour, specifically with Mahmoud our driver, was the most spectacular experience. Mahmoud took excellent care of us and made sure we always felt comfortable, safe, and happy. He shared so much history with us and always took the time to explain anything we asked. Request Mahmoud and you will have the best trip of your life! We saw Marrakech, Merzouga, Ouzarate, Fez, Chefchaouen, Dades Valley, Volubilis, and many other spots between. Everything was beyond our expectations. We live in Los Angeles and travel the world (spent over 110 nights in a hotel last year) so we are not novice travelers and our expectations are high. The service, the accommodations, food, all terrific. Morocco First Gate was the absolute best choice for my husband and me. Mahmoud drove us in a beautiful Mercedes van that was very comfortable. He welcomed us like family and even brought us into his home in the Rose Valley which was a highlight for us. His kindness and generosity throughout really embodied the Moroccan spirit that we felt during our entire trip. Another note on accommodations: Riad Yasmine (Marrakech), Dar Jasmine (Chefchaouen), and the crown jewel of Eden Boutique Hotel in the Dades Valley were all FANTASTIC experiences. Eden Boutique is brand new and I will not be surprised to see it on top luxury boutique hotel awards in the next few years. We upgraded our experience to ‘luxury’ accommodations everywhere we went and we were thrilled with everything. The Sahara was beautiful and I would recommend making it a point to visit. Fez was my favorite city for its culture but there was not one place I did not enjoy- it was all spectacular. We had city tour guides for Fez (Said) and Chefchaouen (Hazim) and I would recommend requesting them too. Their English was superb and they shared so much of their beautiful cities with us. Truly made our experience above and beyond. We plan to book a tour again for the coast next time we come. Mahmoud is now like our family and we are sad to depart. Fantastic experience- 11/10!

Mahmoud and Adeel (our driver) did an amazing job. They were patient with our large group. Our trip was so much fun. We laughed and celebrated on the bus with them. Thank you both!

Morocco First Gate was amazing! Our driver Abdessamad, a friendly and hospitable Moroccan, drove us safely through our designated route with great knowledge about the places we’ve been. I cannot recommend them enough.

I have researched Morocco tours and came across Morocco First Gate. I customized this tour based on what I'd like to do differently in Morocco. Contacted Mr. Mohammad and by far my experience was great from October 5-12. Mohammad, thank you for this opportunity and it was a pleasure to meet all your amazing team. Our driver Mr. Abdessamad (Abdul) was a super nice man from day 1 til the end of our stay in Morocco. He's a good driver and lets me sleep for the entire road trip and announce when it's our stop (thank you, Abdul! Jet lag is surreal). On the side note, he's very understanding and accommodating to customers' needs (stop by the ATM, pharmacy, and store). Abdul knows he got crazy and needy passengers, but he has tons of patience with us. Our tour guides from Marrakech and Fez are awesome (Aziz and Omar), they are very knowledgeable and sent us to places that it's a must see as part of the Moroccan tour experience. Us, aside from the original itinerary, we had other places wanting to visit and Abdul was able to manage through our timeline (back and forth at Jemaa el- Fnaa, Restaurants, and laundromat). What can we do without Abdul? Abdul WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND for us. Overall, it was by far the best Moroccan experience! Thank you Mohammad and Abdul! Until the next time!

Our experience was incredible. We arrived in Morocco just 2 days after the earthquake and were able to do the 10-day tour without problems. Our guide and driver were incredible people, they helped us with everything with great patience. I strongly recommend it!

Awesome trip with Mahmoud. We saw and experienced things I don’t think we would with any other guide. He was friendly, accommodating, and seemed to know everyone. Gave us everything on our itinerary and more.Also is a very talented musician. Definitely a trip to remember!

Amazing experience! Abdul Latif was very flexible, on time every morning followed the itinerary as provided. Agency is very professional and provided services as promised. I would go with them again in future.

Top Experience in Marrakech, Abdul is a very beautiful person, great agency and good person! Very seriously !!!!!!!!!

Morocco First Gate I must say was exceptional in executing this tour which was very strategic and well thought of. The accommodations in Riads in each city were very beautiful having its own unique charm especially the staff they were extremely polite, hospitable and lovely which made our experience all the better. One things for sure is that Morocco First Gate definitely focused on delivering high quality, personal services with emphasis on innovation whilst being attentive to the small details and most of all delivering a flawless travel experience. 🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🐪🐪🐪📸📸📸📸 Morocco First Gate has left me with holiday memories straight out of a dream! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💃💃💃💃💃 Highly recommended will book them anytime any day. Renee 😘😘🇹🇹🇹🇹

Excellent communication and perfect execution of the program provided by Morocco First Gate. From planning this trip at home straight to the end. Response time and bookings were done in a timely manner. Our guide and everyone went out their way to make sure we had a great time, Our driver was always on time for every excursion. Tremendous value for money. Many thanks for making sure we had an exceptional trip all the way from Trinidad & Tobago 🇹🇹 🌞 I would definitely book again and recommend to my family and friends.🎉🎉🎊✨️🐫🐫 Traci⚘️

We enjoyed a 15 day tour with Abdol. He was very professional, courteous and attentive to all our wants. He was very knowledgeable and took us to so many neat attractions. We would recommend anyone to go with him, we were a family of four, and always felt safe, welcome and comfortable in the van. We toured all of Morroco, staying two nights in each town. We feel like the tour did not leave out anything. Abdol accommodated us in the heat bringing us to waterfalls, swimming holes, the gorge and many other neat places. We visited a Nomads home, stopped to see camels in the desert and the ancient aqua ducts built by hand. We even stopped foe the kids to lick salt from a dried up river bed. This was the best trip ever.

Top tour guided company !! Very responsive. Well organized. We have enjoyed every minute of our trip. The culture, people, food and history of Morocco were so amazing. The guides you’ve arranged for us were amazing in addition to all the hotels. Best of all, our friend/ driver Abdul Samad played a big part as to why we have enjoyed our trip so much. He’s very accommodating and generous. Thank you for the extra tour you have arranged for us. We will be recomending your service to our families and friends. Will back soon to Morocco iA ! Great company, don’t hesitate to book with them !!!

First of all thank you to Morocco First Gate for managing our tour in Morocco. It was such a splendid and beautiful experience for myself and my partner. Every part of the tour was just fasinating from the guided city tours, museums, sahara, places of interests and even the drives during the tour. Hats off to our tour guide/driver for the entire tour OMAR. He’s very hospitable, friendly and accommodative to our needs during the tour. Omar, thank you once again for taking care of us :D I truly recommend Morocco First Gate if its your first time to Morocco. Thanks again Amir

Thank you Morocco First gate for the great desert experience we had with your great stuff . I highly recommand this tour operator

I loved the Sahara desert experience with the group. We had really fun. I loved ait be haddou ad well.

I can’t say enough about this experience. These guys are just the most beautiful people you will ever meet. And they were complete professionals, totally focused on making sure we were comfortable, cared for, and just having the most memorable experience possible. Whether it’s your first time in Morocco, or fifth (like ours), I would recommend this tour to anyone.

Very pleasant tour. The guides Sala and driver Abdel were very friendly, explicative and detailed in every explanation of each of the seeings. I strongly recommend them plus transportarion vehicles are very comfortable and punctual

If I could give 10 stars+ I would. Our trip began with Mahmoud meeting us at the airport. Little did we know that he started as our "driver" and we left as family. He made our trip to Morrocco the best ever. His driving, his personality, his way with people ( us and the Moroccan community), his knowledge, his English and his willingness to teach us words we could use, his attention to detail, and amazing energy was unmatched. He is an incredible musician. Don't let him fool you that he can't sing- not true! I went on this trip with my three adult children and all of us were so sad to say good bye to him but grateful for our new friend. Morrocco is the most amazing country- people, food, music, culture, rituals, landscape etc etc and this trip has changed my life- not kidding. My family and I hope to come back to visit Morrocco but more importantly to catch up with our new friend. Best trip ever!!

Where do I even begin to describe what a fantastic experience we had with our driver, Mahmoud? From start to finish the level of service he provided was top notch. He made us feel welcome from the beginning, and truly made our trip so special. Over our ten days with Mahmoud, he showed us so many beautiful things, and was always in a great mood and ready to see more. The car was clean and comfortable, and we were on time getting to every single destination, almost to the minute. I can highly recommend this outfitter, especially if Mahmoud is your driver!

Wow! What an incredible experience. Morocco is a country unlike any other. The people, food, music, landscapes, history, and hospitality were unmatched. However, what made our trip so special was our amazing driver Mahmoud. We began the trip on a good note as Mahmoud was timely and very polite upon arrival. Luckily, as the trip progressed we became family. Mahmoud was always on time, in a great mood, willing to help with luggage, and excited to show us around his country. He went beyond his job responsibilities to ensure we were taken care of at all times. He communicated efficiently with our various city guides and hotel/riad receptionists and got us where we needed to go without any stress. He even stopped to help my mother get cough drops as she fell sick on our trip. Also, his driving was impeccable. We always felt secure and safe in his vehicle. Additionally, Mahmoud was a basically a tour guide himself. Wherever we drove, Mahmoud provided very good information about the city/village. He was incredibly engaging but not in an overwhelming/unwarranted way. We learned so much from Mahmoud. If we didn’t have him as our driver I believe our trip would have been much different. If you choose this service, request Mahmoud. We were so lucky that somehow the world brought us together in Morocco. He is now family! PS: Mahmoud is also an incredible musician. Be sure to ask him to play some music or his instrument when you have a moment to relax. Xx

Mahmoud was an excellent driver and guide. His kindness made my family feel welcome from the second he picked us up from the airport. It was an absolute pleasure to spend ten days with Mahmoud, learning about Moroccan history and culture, and meeting many of his kind friends along our route. The culture that he shared, as well as his wonderful attitude were highlights of our trip. I recommend Mahmoud as a driver/guide for anyone visiting Morocco, and will definitely call him when I return to the country!

Beautiful experience. Staff prepared and up to the task. If I return to Morocco I will rely on them

Beautiful experience with a very competent team. Abdul person extremely available and reliable. If one day I return to Morocco I will rely on them again!

Fantastic experience. Serious agency and very helpful staff. Abdul was a top guide for us. Definitely to be chosen.

Fantastic experience that I absolutely recommend. Serious agency and helpful and reliable staff. Abdul was a top guide for us. If one day we return we would certainly rely on them again.

Very good experience and very good Service from the company, Abdul the driver was excellent, also the guide Salah was very attentive, all the time he was watching us. The other guides Mohamed and Jamal very happy. Overall all the people in our path both in hotels and restaurants and markets were very friendly.

Excellent experience, on the tour we have been taught the most essential and most beautiful places in Morocco. The route is more enjoyable the more days it takes not to do so many kilometers by car on the same day, especially if you go in family!!! The unbeatable company of our guide Hami AIC , with great friendliness, very fun and especially very helpful with everything we ask him along the way for the fact of traveling with the family (as for example during the route stop to buy hats, water, take money from the bank..., even take us to the doctor, anything was never a problem, always at our Service) and he has made it a very comfortable trip. Hami a strong hug from your team from Catalonia, we miss you since you left us, especially the children who even cried.

We just came back from a tour of Morocco and it was great. We were two families of two adults and two children aged 13 and 9 each. The guide Hami Ait, has accompanied us on this route and made it a wonderful experience. It has made us feel at home at all times and the children have been delighted with it. If you have the opportunity to do the tour with Hami Ait you will not be disappointed. Anyway, a 10 a tour with the Morocco First Gate company, and a 10 the Hami guide. Thank you so much for everything.

Yassine Zanun immediately understood what we wanted to enjoy on our trip to Marrakech. He had immense patience and sensitivity to explain us in all kinds of detail everywhere we were. He likes children very much and he was always smiling. I recommend the agency and above all I recommend Yassine

Excellent excursion and experience! Tourist guide at the top! We were totally immersed and we could discover the culture at the locals! An experience I highly recommend! Thank you for everything!
