UNCOVERED TRAILS
Uncovered Trails | Private Morocco Tours Experts
“I learned from my parents, culture, and faith that when someone visits you, they are not just guests — they are a responsibility. You take care of them with generosity and respect, because that is how strong relationships and communities are built. I was taught to live in harmony with people regardless of their religion, language, or skin color. Those values shaped how I built Uncovered Trails.”
— Ilyas Baayay, Founder.
Hospitality, Local Knowledge, and Travel Expertise
Uncovered Trails was built on hospitality, responsibility, and deep local knowledge. In Morocco, welcoming a guest is not symbolic; it is a duty. It means anticipating needs, paying attention to details, and ensuring every traveler feels safe, respected, and cared for.
Planning a journey through Morocco requires more than booking hotels and transport. Distances, seasons, regional differences, cultural norms, road conditions, and the rhythm of each destination all matter. We focus on these details so your trip feels smooth, personalized, and effortless.
Traveling with us is also about the people you meet. We ensure you hear stories directly from locals, both men and women, across regions and communities, creating meaningful experiences beyond sightseeing.

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.

Uncovered Trails planned three days of our trip to Marrakech and the surrounding area. Karim was a fantastic guide, very knowledgeable and fun. Ismail was a fantastic driver. They made Marrakech accessible and easy for us to learn about and explore. We had a full day guided tour of the Medina, a hiking trip to the Atlas Mountains, and an overnight in the Agafay Desert. Everything was planned perfectly, the team at Uncovered Trails was easy to communicate with and worked with us to plan a trip that our family will never forget. Thank you Uncovered Trails!

What is the best time to visit Morocco?
The best time to visit Morocco is during spring, from March to May, or autumn, from September to November. These seasons offer the most comfortable weather for exploring the country, whether you are traveling as a family, a couple, or solo. Temperatures are not as cold as winter and not as hot as summer, making it ideal for sightseeing, hiking in the Atlas Mountains, or visiting the Sahara Desert.
Keep in mind that Ramadan can affect travel during these periods, so check the dates before planning your trip. Spring and autumn are also popular times, so it is important to book accommodations, activities, and meals in advance. Morocco can also be busy during Christmas and New Year.
Is it better to travel to Morocco in winter or summer?
In winter, you can expect snow in the High Atlas Mountains and chilly evenings in cities near the mountains and the Sahara Desert. In summer, temperatures can be very high, so we recommend staying in accommodations with air conditioning and swimming pools, traveling in air-conditioned vehicles, drinking plenty of water, and avoiding low valleys where heavy rain may cause flash floods.
What is Ramadan and what should travelers know?
Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar and one of the most important periods in Morocco. Its dates change each year because it follows the lunar calendar, moving about twelve days earlier annually. During Ramadan, daily life in Morocco slows down, especially during daylight hours, but the country remains welcoming and accessible for travelers.
How does fasting work in Morocco?
During Ramadan, Muslims who are fasting avoid eating and drinking, including water, from dawn until sunset. They also refrain from smoking, intimacy, and negative behaviors such as gossip or arguments. Fasting is both a spiritual and social practice. After sunset, families and friends gather for iftar, the meal that breaks the fast, creating a lively and important cultural moment.
How does Ramadan affect travelers in Morocco?
During Ramadan, many local cafés and restaurants close during the day, especially outside tourist areas. In major cities and popular destinations, you will still find places open for visitors. Bars and nightclubs are usually closed for the month, and alcohol is limited but available in some hotel restaurants and licensed venues serving foreigners. Winery visits are still possible in regions like Meknes and Essaouira.
Are travelers allowed to eat and drink in public during Ramadan?
Yes, travelers are allowed to eat and drink in public during Ramadan. Smoking is also permitted, but it is appreciated if done discreetly, as many people around you may be fasting.
What are helpful tips for visiting Morocco during Ramadan?
Evenings are busy, especially after sunset. It is recommended to book dinner reservations in advance, as restaurants fill up quickly and options may be limited.
Showing basic respect for the local rhythm of life goes a long way. A simple understanding of Ramadan customs helps create positive interactions and a more meaningful travel experience.
Morocco remains open, safe, and welcoming during Ramadan, offering travelers a unique chance to experience the country during a special time of year.
