Best Merzouga experience - Mr Hamid is such a warm personality And highly motivated person. He speaks excellent english. We learned alot from him about morocco History And culture. The accomodations he chose for us were fantastic. We could not have asked for more tbh. Having To travel by car constantly moving between cities was definitely tiring But we enjoyed every bit of it all respect for Hamid who does a great job there.His efforts And patience are truly commendable, a true example of excellent guide. He will go extra mile for you To make sure that you are comfortable. Many Thanks for everything. We will be back again soon. Highly recommend!

Fantastic Morocco Adventure - Hamid is a top notch guy. He is all about making sure that you are comfortable and goes the extra mile to make sure you thoroughly enjoy each and every site. Our trip was a few years back, but the memories are all positive. I highly recommend Hamid and his brother to anyone who wants to get a real feel for Morocco and avoid the many hassles of a large tour company. We are experienced season travelers who know a great guide when we see one.

Think Morocco, Think Hamid … ! - I have lived across and experienced many locales and cultures and was curious to experience Morocco. We partnered with another family friend and felt the biggest barrier to truly enjoy the country was finding a really good guide as the stay and flights were easily navigable. They say- when you look hard enough you can spot the Diamond even in a haystack and after our sifting we were lucky to find Hamid and Meta Adventures amongst an array of competitive guides. Right from the word Go, he was highly accommodating and inspite of it being the Holy month of Ramadan, he stretched odd hours for us and made our entire trip smooth as butter! Our bags were highly delayed by our carrier and that had left a sour taste when we landed but the trip and Hamid’s ‘can-do’ attitude more than made up for it ! We saw some amazing sights, were paired with some great ‘local spot guides’ by Hamid , had a blast shopping local treasures at haunts best known to him and even did some ‘out-of-itinerary’ changes that were managed by him at really short notice. He is highly mature, polite , savvy with a wisdom acquired over the years with an open mind and even open to constructive feedback on where he can improve on his occasionally tongue-in-cheek wit. We wish him and his company all the best and would love to come to Morocco again and pair up with him 🙂

Every challenge was turned into an Oppor - Hamid from Morocco Meta Adventures impressed us immensely with his meticulous management and customization of our SUV private adventure through a diversity of landscapes and experiences in Morocco spanning ancient medinas, the High Atlas mountain-towns, desert camps and even an unplanned winery. Every unexpected challenge was turned into an opportunity to quick-adapt the trip and make it even more enjoyable. His guidance was genuine and it showed us that he has built a network of like-minded and reliable guides in each Moroccan destination. He was insistence on our feedback on each local guide he hired so he can maintain best value for his customers. Throughout the trip Hamid went beyond the call of duty to ensure our vacation was the best. He did all this while fasting as this was the month of Ramadan.

Blown away! - I have been lucky to travel to and experience many destinations around the world. Choosing Hamid as the travel guide for our Morocco travels was by far the best choice I have made so far. His connections and inside knowledge of everything Moroccan, from scenic alternate drive routes, navigating local dealings, to his knowledge of quality shopping spots outside tourist traps are exemplary and only represent a small slice of Hamid’s overall value. Hamid is extremely polite, respectful with high level of social intelligence-which I think is a common Moroccan trait. He is very quick witted, and well read on a diverse set of topics and consequently a great conversationalist.

Exceptional Morocco Meta Adventures: Great Journey and Hospitality - When I was exploring options for tours in Morocco, I reached out to multiple agencies and Morocco Meta Adventures was one of them. Hamid promptly responded to my inquiries and provided us with several options to choose from. I really appreciated the attentiveness and decided to book a Sahara Tour with him. During our tour from Marrakesh to Fez Via Merzouga, Yousuff was our driver and guide, and he made our experience unforgettable. We thoroughly enjoyed his music and became instant fans :-) His recommendations for shopping and food was spot-on, and his insights into moroccan culture added depth to our journey. We were so impressed that we requested additional transfer services throughout our stay. The entire experience was meticulously planned to ensure our safety and enjoyment. I highly recommened the MMA for anyone looking for memorable and well organised experience in Morocco. That too at an Unbeatable Price. Thank you Hamid and Yousoff. Look forward to coming back and visit more places in Morocco.

Enriching Fantastic Holiday - Had a great 13 day private trip across Morocco through Morocco Meta Adventures. Right from the planning to execution everything was perfect. Since I traveled during the Christmas/ New Year Holiday Season, everything went well. Travelled from Casablanca, through Rabat, Chefchaouen, Volubilis, Chefchouen, Fez, Merzouga, Ourzzuatte, Atlas Studios and ended with spending the New Year in Marrakech. Had private guides arranged at all the Imperial cities and all the guides were very knowledgeable and helpful. Very special mention about my friend and driver Youssef, who was constantly with me throughout the trip from start to End. Being an English Speaking Driver guide, he was very helpful and his driving skills were very good. Highly recommend him. Overall had a great time with MMA and recommend them.

Fantastic tour guide for a family - Hamid is a fantastic tour guide. He was knowledgeable about the area, a safe driver and super helpful with all our family needs. He took us to fantastic places that we would have never known about or seen. We especially loved the lunch at Nora near the Sahara desert!

Great experience with Hamid and Morocco Meta Adventures. - Hamid was an excellent tour guide who provided a curated tour for our small group. He was very attentive and responded quickly to emails and calls. Hamid met us at the expected time and showed us more than was promised. He is an excellent driver with specialized knowledge of the places we visited. I was happy that he chose places to eat that ensured we ate safely, but also enjoyed the cultural tastes of Morocco. He kept us on time and made sure we saw everything we wanted to see. I would trust him with recommendations and he will do the planning for you. Better than ChatGPT! If I had to pick five words to describe Hamid personally I would say: generous, professional, trustworthy, knowledgeable and reliable. Do not miss the opportunity to visit the nomad cave dwellers and the overnight camp in the desert. These were the highlights of our trip. My only regret is that we didn't realize Hamid could also do a tour for us in Fez! An excellent trip.
