The Ultimate Adventure Through Morocco

What a fantastic adventure/experience we had with Mohammad (Mo) Bensaid. He is indeed a true professional. Every day he went the extra mile to make our days better, nothing was an effort for him. This holiday has a lot of traveling in it, this was well flagged beforehand, but you cannot see this wonderful country without this travel, thank you Khalid for your expert driving skills. The travel allows you to see many aspects of the country and the culture of its people. Ours was a mixed group where most of the people had never met before our trip but everyone gelled very well together. At all times I felt safe on this trip, I would happily recommend this company for your visit to Morocco.

First trip with MBA and will certainly look to use them again. Mo was an excellent guide and enabled a packed and varied trip which felt an authentic experience of Morocco without following the tourist trap trail.

From the moment we arrived, our guide was exceptional—knowledgeable, friendly, and always eager to share insights about the country’s rich history, culture, and traditions. His passion for Morocco was contagious and added a personal touch to the entire journey.

The tour was perfectly balanced, offering both the excitement of exploring bustling cities and the tranquility of Morocco’s rural landscapes. We spent time in vibrant cities like Marrakech and Fes, where we wandered through maze-like souks and bazaars, bargaining for textiles, and unique handicrafts. The energy of these markets was captivating, and our guide helped us navigate the labyrinth with ease, pointing out hidden gems and explaining the significance of the items on display.

But the trip didn’t stop in the cities. We also ventured into Morocco’s breathtaking rural areas. A highlight was a day spent hiking in the Atlas Mountains, where the views were absolutely stunning. The peacefulness of the mountains, paired with the adventure of the trek, was a perfect contrast to the lively atmosphere of the cities. We also had the chance to ride camels across the Sahara, watching the sunset over the endless sand dunes—a moment of pure magic.

Overall, this tour was the ideal mix of urban exploration, cultural immersion, and outdoor adventure. Whether it was exploring ancient medinas, shopping in lively bazaars, or getting lost in the beauty of Morocco’s natural landscapes, the journey was an incredible way to experience the best of this diverse and fascinating country. Highly recommended!

My sister and I really enjoyed our 10-day trip across Morocco! We loved the variety of locations, activities, and opportunities to immerse ourselves in the culture (we especially loved the desert camp in the Sahara). Our group and guide were fantastic, which made the trip that much more enjoyable and memorable. We'll be talking about it for years to come!

I was excited to join on this adventure. I looked over all the photos and read the itinerary several times imagining how amazing it would be but, I must say, the actual trip far exceeded my expectations. Not only was it a great mix of different kinds of activities and places in Morocco but there were so many more little things I was delighted by like stopping on the roadside to get the first oranges of the season, the van filling with the smell of fresh citrus, seeing monkeys or eating fresh baked cookies out of a wood fired oven after a long hike. Hamid was a gracious, enthusiastic tour guide who went over-and-beyond to make our trip fun, enlightening and connective. He was more than happy to answer any questions about his culture, teach us Arabic, help with handicraft purchases and even order a birthday cake! I always felt safe and comfortable and absolutely fell in love with the land and people of Morocco. I will definitely be looking at more Much Better Adventures and I will be back to Morocco. The only thing I did not like was having to leave at the end. I wanted to buy a motorcycle and 20 sheep and stay forever. That sentiment speaks to just how well curated and facilitated this trip was.

This was an amazing trip. Thank you to our knowledgeable and thoughtful guide, Hamid, and our driver, who orchestrated our tour experience across Morocco. The changing landscapes, culture, buildings and scenery were awesome. Some of the journeys were long but definitely manageable as they were interspersed by genuinely enjoyable authentic experiences which I was grateful to have had. Everyone in the group got along just fine and we moved around the minibus on each trip so everyone could enjoy the front seats. The treks were doable and enjoyable. The desert and camel ride was a memorable experience. Morocco is a wonderful country which I very much hope I can visit again soon.

Good trip hotels nice food ok needs a bit of atmosphere while on the mini bus because of the long journeys

This trip was exactly what I imagined it to be and more, having wanted to visit Morocco for many years. It covered everything from stunning views, beautiful outdoors, moderate activities, history, culture and let's not forget about food! I felt safe and well looked after throughout the trip by the guide Hamid and the driver Mustafa.

We stayed in a variety of accommodations including a riad in Fes which was my favourite. I wasn't confident I would be able to do well at the rock climbing but it turned out to be probably the best activity we did thanks to the great organisation and a lot of support from my travel companions.

I'm really pleased that MBA opted to showcase the lesser known parts of Morocco at the expense of Marrakech which, in my opinion, faded in comparison to a much more authentic Fes. I felt like I truly got a good taste of what this country is about and I'll be keen to return in the near future.

Definitely recommend!

Lots of adventure. . . lovely. . . quiet guide. . . . felt very safe with our driver. . . . would recommend this trip. . .

Redouane was an excellent guide and the trip to the Sahara was absolutely incredible

Brilliant trip. Redouane was an excellent Guide and really took care of us. He was incredibly patient and calm. His advice was in valuable and his knowledge and connections really helped the trip run smoothly. Very diverse experiences with many highlights eg the Sahara, rock climbing and hiking. It is rated as easy but you do have to be relatively fit to get the most out of the trip. A trip of a lifetime for me. Brilliant and thanks Redouane.

Wow! Where do I start?! This trip is unbelievable! Before I launch into superlatives however, I will say 2 things....1 - There's a LOT of travelling (so make sure youre prepared for this and you're with a good group who understand the need for a leg stretch!) And 2 - it is NOT easy! The hikes are hard, the paths are a bit scrambly & you have to be reasonably fit (be ready to walk/trek about 10k in the Atlas mountains for example!) But that's it - with those warnings aside, the trip was stunning, fun, friendly, exciting and every day really was a learning day! Every single day was a highlight and Mohammed (our trip leader and guide) and Samir (driver) were incredible too! I couldn't recommend more! Thank you MBA - I'll be back for more trips soon for sure!

This was an amazing blend of some traditional Moroccan tourism/culture combined with some active days.

By the end of the trip we truly had all bonded. The mountain hike was gorgeous. The desert hike was gorgeous. The ravine hike and mountain biking were so fun. Our guide and driver were amazing.

This trip was everything that I hoped it would be. Our guide, Mohammed, went above and beyond from the minute we arrived and his love for his country shone through. With Mohammed showing us his Morocco we were able to experience things that would not have been accessible travelling independently. Although the itinerary was jam packed, it did not feel restrictive. There were some long travel days, but these were broken up with stops at stunning locations and were needed to cover the ground that we did. Morocco is a truly beautiful country, from the medinas to the ancient ruins to the desert, with the most delicious food I've tasted. I can't wait to go back!

What a truly magical adventure. Our guide was so kind, humble, knowledgeable and nothing was ever too much. Our driver was also brilliant, always kept is safe, we had lots of breaks and care was give. Our group had a good mix of age and characters. I highly recommend this trip. Only other thing to say is that i do a lot of hiking and I think the desert hike should not be graded as easy. A lot if people in my group struggled, especially with the heat and then hiking in the dark. So maybe that bit of the trip should be made clearer for those with poor fitness or no hiking experience.

This amazing trip allows you to see a lot of Morocco in a reasonable amount of time. As other reviews have said, there is a lot of driving, but the minibus was comfortable, and I was with a great group who made the driving time fly by 🫶:skin-tone-2: (we were only five people). The hotels were all excellent, and the balance between guided tours and downtime was just right. I particularly enjoyed the camel ride to our tents in the desert!

This is definitely an 'Easy' trip, with only one hike, one mostly flat walk, and optional rock climbing, so it felt much more like a holiday than an adventure. However, the sights we saw and the delicious food we ate made up for the reduced number of physical activities.

Our guide was really friendly and very flexible, which made the trip more relaxed and easy-going. I will be going back to Morocco in the future, and would definitely do a MBA trip again 😊

The trip was a great way to see so much of Morocco - a good balance of exploring cities and nature. There was a lot of driving but that was the only way we'd fit so much in 10 days!

This is a well designed and organised trip. As much as possible of the variety of the culture and landscape, the historical sites and natural wonders were showed to us within a limited 9 days. I would definitely recommend this trip to anyone who wants to have a comprehensive and initial understanding of this beautiful country, and will take it as a good starting point for any future indulging in.

Our guide Hamid and driver Abdul were undoubtedly the key factor of this successful and memorable trip. Their professionalism, kindness, and rich knowledge (may I emphasis all the absolutely delicious restaurants we were recommended to?) made all the lovely time we enjoyed. Very grateful for their help and efforts during the trip.

The guide Hamid and driver were both excellent, friendly, well organised and very keen to make everything as smooth and hassle free as possible. I've been to Morocco three times before but this was easily the most authentic and varied. There was a good highlight everyday. Included meals were good. Good places were also recommended / booked for self funded meals. Some breakfasts were basic. Very good value overall. Do consider spending extra time in Marrakesh at the end. Some days have long drives, but they were definitely worth it.

I recommend this trip very highly, it's a wonderful introduction to a country well worth seeing. As a relatively unfit person, I appreciated the balance of physical activity with cultural excursions and opportunities to learn about Morocco's rich history and art traditions. The hikes were a challenge for a city walker, but our guide was willing to hold my hand all the way down a mountain whenever I felt unsteady.

I can't overstate how much the successful chemistry of this trip owes to our guide Hamid and driver Abdul, who couldn't have been lovelier. They were generous with their time and energy, warm, fun, professional, gracious and extremely patient. Hamid's long experience as a guide really comes across, as does the thought he's put into positioning us in the tourism ecosystem to best support communities worth investing in, like master craftswomen keeping traditional arts alive. I felt totally safe in their care, and enriched by Hamid's palpably sincere love of a beautiful country. I'm grateful that the way it was shared with us offered opportunities for insight and deeper exchange that I wouldn't have found on my own, or with a tour catering to tastes for lesser complexity.

No moment was wasted – even my getting overheated and skipping the Sahara camel ride led to a thrilling jeep ride over the Erg Chebbi dunes that turned me into a born-again dune buggy person at 39. Video by Hamid, seen here checking in on me while getting some good IG content on my behalf without being asked, like the gifted host he is.

This trip is amazing value and I would recommend it to anyone. I'm grateful for our hosts' care in striking the balance between trust and autonomy that adventure is made of. Absorbing some of Morocco's warmth has been a joy.

This trip was fantastic, I had not expected to be blown away by the beauty of Morocco, it's vastly different landscapes, the friendly people and the sights. Thanks to our wonderful Guides (Hamid & Abdul) who were such great ambassadors for their country. They were the backbone of a truly wonderful experience and made every activity in an action packed schedule flow smoothly, two absolute gents.

Such a great & well planned trip through parts of Morocco I'd never have discovered alone. Days alternated between activity and travel.

We covered a lot of ground but with changing landscapes, lots of well-chosen stops and a great guide and driver (thanks, Mo & Slimane!) it never felt like too much travelling.

The tour took us properly off the beaten track - I particularly loved the hammam where the local kids were agog at tourists. And the additional guides we had in Fes and Volubilis were so informative and entertaining.

Mo went out of his way to accommodate different requests, and was super considerate and thoughtful.

Recommended!

If i booked this trip individually I would have missed out on so much Morocco has to offer. From Chefcauon,Fez medina's and travelling to the desert. There was a lot of driving but seeing the sights made up for it !

This really is a great adventure to some of the highlights of Morocco and particularly to some of the off the beaten track places and people you'd rarely find on your own. This was my 4th time in Morocco but it definitely felt like the most authentic trip and I learned a lot.

Our guide/host, Mo, was fabulous. Knowledgeable, considerate and enthusiastic about his country and wanting you to have the best trip possible. Our driver, Sliman, was also great. We covered so many kilometres but he did them all so carefully and patiently, with a smile on his face.

There was a lot of driving involved, but it never felt like as many hours as it actually was because they are clever with stops and breaking up the driving days with the high activity days. And if you want to see the breadth and depth of places you do on this trip you're going to have to cover a few kilometres.

We couldn't do the rock climbing due to weather/temperature which at first I was a little disappointed about, but we were given options for alternative things to do and the lunch that formed part of the option we chose, at a Berber house, was the best meal we had (and all the meals were very good!).

Highly recommend this trip if you want a mix of activity, culture, good food and sightseeing.

Trip of a lifetime!

Our trip to Morocco was INCREDIBLE. We saw so much of the country, met some fantastic people and had some amazing experiences. Can’t recommend enough and the value for money was outstanding.

Fantastic time away with an awesome group, and one of the best local guides. Some long days in the minibus, but worth it to get to places you would normally never visit. The Sahara is mesmerising.

The perfect blend of fun adventures (rock climbing, hiking) and gorgeous cities. Lots of driving but you get through a lot - it really is the ultimate tour of Morocco! Encourage shopping in Chefchaouen instead of Fes. I disagree with them offering a camel ride in the Sahara as it's generally considered a form of animal cruelty to ride animals for tourism. Mo and Ismail were phenomenal, as were our local guides. Loved it!

Fantastic group and host
