"Shukran bezzaff, Yallah!"
Morocco is a beautiful country rich in culture, history and hospitality. Which I learned from our Guide Karim.
We chose to visit Morocco with the guidance of Uncovered Trails because after talking to Ilyas, we knew we would have a private tour with a lot of attention and dedication to our group. From the moment Karim and Tariq picked us up from the airport, we knew that magic was about to take over. There are no words I could describe the experience we shared. Not even enough stars to give. It felt like family. We stayed in the most beautiful hotels, exquisite food, people opened their homes for a unique experience, visited and got to know the local business and how their thrive in their socioeconomic environment. It was mind blowing how much dedication they put in their craft.
If you want to visit Morocco reserve your spot with one of those big - lots of tourists tour companies.

Ilyas at Uncovered Trails put together a great itinerary for us based around our indicated interest & then enhanced it brilliantly with his local knowledge. Prior to leaving he made sure via zoom call that we had everything we needed. Karim our guide was full of knowledge, personality & great tips.
