A great tour, an absolute must
We went on a great tour. The two of us and Hassan Moujane who was our driver and guide. We are an older couple, Jaap is 83, Griet 77. A lot was taken into account that Jaap cannot walk for more than an hour. Hassan always reserved a room on the ground floor or on the first floor in the riads and hotels. Everything perfectly arranged. Very important was also the friendliness, the presence and the helpfulness of our driver. And what we also really liked was the relaxed Mood, we could ask him anything and we had a nice time together. We were very happy to have made a wonderful 16 day trip this way: an absolute must!!!

A magical journey
I travelled solo from Marrakech to the desert with this fantastic organisation. Everything was arranged down to the last detail and Hassan made the trip a fantastic one. A long but beautiful and safe drive to the Royal Oasis desert camp where I was welcomed with open arms with an unprecedented hospitality from the whole family. They showed me all the hidden gems of the desert with the beautiful camp as a starting point. Waking up every day with the most beautiful sunrise and going to sleep with the most beautiful sunset in a silence you can't experience anywhere. Hassan also took care of the drive back to Marrakech with the necessary stops for coffee and fresh juices, music made the trip even more beautiful through a breathtaking landscape. Also in Marrakesh they arranged a nice riad for me including my transport to the airport. It was a magical journey thanks to Hassan and his whole team and warm family. Thank you for the wonderful memories!

Without a doubt, our trip to Morocco (11 days) made sense to which we went to the desert accompanied by this incredible family. Not only are they close, generous and attentive, but they love their work and culture so much that you can’t help but get into it and get carried away with the passion they put into everything. The food, lodging, treatment, scenery and experience have been wholeheartedly spectacular and much more than recommended.

Amazing Experience!
Mr. Hasan and I spent the most fun and amazing hours of our trip to Morocco with my family. He took us to the village of amazigh, the black desert and desert lake. We also watched fish fossils together. If you want unforgettable memories, I highly recommend Mr. Hasan!

Highly Recommended
Our safari in Merzouga was truly memorable. From the Sahara Desert to the Black Desert, from the Berber home to the fossil sites, we’ve been all around, and every stop is detailed, clear and delightfully described. We had the opportunity to get up close to Berber culture, and South African entertainment added a touch of color to the tour. The Berber pizza we ate at the end of the tour was legendary and very tasty. It was a very fun, full and enjoyable experience from start to finish. Recommendation for everyone with confidence.

Thank you for a great stay!
I was able to stay only 3 days in Morocco (stay far too short), and Moroccotripway knew how to optimize my visit to offer me a rich, authentic and unforgettable experience, activities (dune tour, camel ride, cultural visits...) than recommendations of establishments (Royal Oasis Camp, various restaurants...).
Hassan was a very caring guide and passionate about his job and the culture of his country that he knew how to share to enrich my stay.
I am delighted to have trusted Morrocotripway to organize and make this trip a success. I highly recommend!

Amazing.
Unforgettable experience, get out of your comfort zone and live something like that..there are no words.
We stayed 7 days, from the second 1 we were picked up at the airport you could see what it was going to be, but since he picked us up Hassan changed everything, close, friendly, willing to help and whatever it takes, super friendly, made us laugh a lot. I would recommend it 100%, there will be next time and it will be with the

9-Day Tour of Morocco
We have done a 9-day tour of Morocco (including Fes, one night in the desert, Ouarzazate and Marrakech). We loved the country and we think the route is very balanced with more activity days and others with more rest time. Our driver and guide Hassan has been very attentive and helped us in everything we needed, if we repeat we will definitely return with Moroccotripway. We are delighted!!

Thank you so much Moroccotripway.

Superb tour in the south of Morocco
We had a great stay in Morocco thanks to a tailor-made tour concocted by Hassan who guided us throughout our stay. From Marrakech to Merzouga then back via Agadir, the trip was very pleasant and exotic. We loved the passages in the Amridil kasbah, oases and desert. A flawless support and organization that we warmly recommend to our friends.

A fantastic tour of Morocco!
Oct 2024
We left for 9 days with Casablanca as our starting point and Marrakech as our destination, passing through Rabat, Chefchaouen, Fez, Erfoud, Ouarzazate, and many other places! Hassan has been a great driver, but he is much more than that: he advised us, guided us and told the story of his country throughout the trip. Respectful, polite, kind and very helpful, Hassan did everything to ensure that our trip went as well as possible and that we kept in memory the memorable moments! Riads and rooms/suites have always been great, as have the restaurants where we had lunch. The camel ride and sunset in the dunes of Merzouga, tea among nomadic Berber women and Hassan's jokes will remain unique moments for us!
In short, we recommend Morrocotripway 100% and are delighted with our holidays!

A magical experience
Oct 2024
It was my dream to visit Morocco and MoroccoTripWay made this dream come true. It was perfect from A to Z. I travelled with my teenage daughter and we felt like two princesses :) We had two different guides/drivers, Ali and Hassan, and both of them were so nice, caring, respectful, funny at times, showing us the best views and places of interest along the way, explaining us lots of things we didn't know...You can really feel they love their country and want to share their culture with you, and that make a big difference! The cars were very spacious and comfortable, and we really felt safe the whole trip. We went for a 7 days tour from Marrakech, with stops in Essaouira, Agadir, Teroudant, Dades and the roses valley, Merzouga desert, Ouarzazate...All the riads we stayed in were great, specially the ones in Essaouira and Dades! And of course...the camp in the desert...We met absolutely lovely people there, the Berbers have something very special about them. We felt so welcomed. The camp in itself is wonderful, luxurious with everything you need, so calm in the middle of the desert. The camels ride was wonderful too, we had the chance to ride them just the two of us before the rest of the group joined us later on. All along that road trip, we listened to music both Ali and Hassan enjoyed. It was fun and we loved discovering arabic and berber songs. We really felt spoiled, and taken care of all the way. We never lacked anything. Hassan would always make sure you have water, he's really helping all the time. And he's a great photographer too! If I go back to Morocco (I will for sure!) I will definitely go again with Morocco Trip Way. I trust them 100%! It's very important to feel like this when you discover a country for the first time and want the best experience ever, specially on a short time. I already miss Moroccans, Ali, Hassan, the delicious food, the riads, the souks, and the breathtaking landscapes that make this country unforgettable. Thanks so much to MoroccoTripWay for this magical experience.

Very good experience on the Morocco tour
Oct 2024 • Couples
We toured Morocco, Fez, Merzouga, Ouarzazate and Marrakech and the organization was very good. Both the local guides and the desert travel days.
Hassan was our Guide-Driver most days and we can not be happier.
It is attentive, punctual and always attentive to anything we might need.
He is a very friendly person and made our trip very pleasant and comfortable.
In the end it was a private trip and in the vehicle we were, very comfortable and great.
We highly recommend your company to make the tour of your choice in Morocco.
Thank you Hassan!!

Tour 4 days. Marrakech-Dades-Merzouga-Ouarzazate. Amazing experience.
We cannot put into words the experiences we have experienced with Hassan. We have done a 4 day tour. Marrakech-Dades-Merzouga-Ouarzazate-Marrakech. We have been together and the experience will be remembered for the rest of our lives. We will go back to Morocco to see new places but we are sure it will be with Hassan, a great Pro and better person. Responsible, friendly, friendly, always attentive and super fun from the moment we arrived.
It has taken us to amazing places, great places to eat , have coffee and the best stops for photos (he is also a great photographer!!!!). We have no words to thank Hassan for this experience.
The super-comfortable vehicle and a super-driver... he'll make you remember your ride for the rest of your life. Recommended 100% if you are thinking of traveling to Morocco and taking a tour.

An unforgettable discovery
We had an amazing time during the visit with Hassan our Guide! From start to finish, the experience was unforgettable. We had the chance to visit many beautiful places, each more impressive than the last. The food was exceptional, authentic and delicious, giving us a real glimpse of the local cuisine. The highlight was the camel ride through the dunes, a thrilling and fun experience. To top it off, we had an amazing evening at Camp Royal Oasis. Hassan’s knowledge, hospitality and energy made this visit unforgettable. I highly recommend!

Perfect stay! Perfect Driver and Guide!
We finish a 10-day tour in Morocco with many stages each more beautiful than the last and we return with stars full of eyes. We were accompanied over these 10 days by Hassan, our 5-star driver! He is much more than a driver, he is a whole person with a lot of benevolence, mood and kindness. Schedules are always very well respected, everything is clear and every Trip Tip on his part is good to take. Whether in English, French or even Spanish, he always did his best to accompany us with a network of knowledge around him that ensured that every restaurant proposal on the way, every arrival in our accommodation was perfectly coordinated. We keep a memorable memory of our time in the Merzouga desert, where Hassan again introduced us to great people he knows very well since it is organized as a family. Everything is thoughtful, organized and our desires were respected each time or even more than we imagined. Bravo for the driving and comfort of the vehicle in all circumstances. Always a nice word to know if we are comfortable, if the air conditioning is correct.
We recommend 1000%. Thank you again Hassan for your explanations regarding the different visits , your understanding and patience at all times and for all the excellent advice.

3 DAYS OF DREAMS
Day 1: Marrakech – Ait Ben Hadou – Dadès Valley
Our driver Hassan picked us up at our Pension to take us to Dades Valley.
We crossed the Tizi-N-Tichka road which crosses the Atlas Mountains, the highest point of which rises to 2,660 meters.
On your way, we were able to observe many Berber villages until we reached Kasbah AMRIDIL. It is an architectural gem that testifies to the ingenuity and richness of Moroccan heritage.
Then head to Ouarzazate, the city of cinema, while crossing the impressive palm grove of Skoura before dropping off our bags in a beautiful Riad (Riad Rihana Tamlat) in Dadès.
We were treated to a magnificent musical performance by all the staff.
Day 2: Dades Valley – Todra Gorge – Sahara Desert
After a good breakfast, Hassan our Guide took us for a walk through the beautiful and imposing Todra Gorge. A river flows through its sumptuous 300 m high gorges shaped by erosion.
We then discovered the fossil village of Erfoud, Hassan booked us a Hostel in the desert for breathtaking lunch. Oh, my God, that was just sublime.
We went back on the road to discover the famous dunes of Erg Chebbi where we took a camel ride at sunset.
Afterwards, Hassan took us to the heart of the desert in a Berber camp (Royal Oasis Camp) far from mass tourism where we spent the night. We were able to enjoy the serenity and calm of the place under the stars. A hearty typical meal was served before giving way to the typical Berber musical entertainment.
Day 3: Sahara Desert – Marrakech
We were able to admire the sunrise, then after our breakfast, Hassan our Guide took us back to Marrakech to the communicated place, with
a few stops on the road.
We spent 3 days of dreams with a Guide at the top.
I recommend ++++

The best agency in whole Morocco and beyond
Morocco trip way is a unique must do experience in this fabulous country.
I have travelled with them many times, in couples, with friends, alone and with my family and each single time was special and unforgettable and I will tell you why you chose book with them.
The guide Hassan speaks perfectly many languages such as English, Spanish or French which makes communication and sharing easier and nicer. He also anticipates all your needs which makes you trip relaxing and really enjoyable. Full of humour, knowledge and joy, he is the perfect guide but also a « hors pair » driver which is quite important in Morocco.
Concerning the tour, it’s more than you will ever dream of. You will have contact with the locals, taste the delicious local food, participate to traditions and live a real human experience among the Berbers people
The hotels or riads chosen are fabulous with great comfort and nice breakfasts always nicely located so that you are free to move in security.
As for the car, it is spacious and cozy just what you need to admire the breathtaking Moroccan landscapes.
In a nutshell, Morroco trip way is a mind blowing agency which gives you a lifetime tour you will never forget. So go ahead, don’t hesitate, you will never be disappointed.
