Trip of a lifetime - The Alternative Morocco company is the best way to experience Morocco. Our desert trip started in Marrakech. We drove through the magnificent Atlas Mountains, stopped at the UNESCO heritage site Kasbah Ait Benhaddou and explored the magnificent Sahara desert. It was once in a lifetime beautiful experience full of amazing landscape, charming towns and unforgettable memories. The trip was very well organised. Great communication and hospitality. Our driver and guides were extremely professional and caring. Highly recommend The Alternative Morocco as a different way to experience this magnificent country!

Great places, not so good service - It's a good tour cause the places you visit are amazing for themselves, but I've felt herded to shops and restaurants as the main goal in this tour. There is no guide, only two punctual guys more concerned for their payment and potential commissions in the shops you're taken than in showing you the places. Lunches are not included in this price, but you'll be also driven to specific restaurants with higher prices and bland food. Commissions again, I assume. And you're not supposed to choose a different place. Dealing with the office to arrange the trip was perfect, I have to say, very helpful and ready to answer. But tour performance is poor and never in the interest of the traveller, I'm afraid.
