Wonderful day seeing historical sights - History is one of my passions. So I especially enjoyed Volubilis Roman ruins. The driver gave us an hour to visit the ruins, but I spent an hour and a half and could have stayed longer. He was very accommodating to tour members' individual needs if we needed more time. I met some lovely people on the tour. Another solo traveller and I wandered around Meknes together, had a picnic lunch in the park and visited the Meknes museum. We both noted that museums in Morocco can do a much better job interpreting their artefacts and informing visitors. There were no dates to indicate historical periods on any of the signs. Gift shops would be welcome.

Disappointed by the tour. - I recently took a tour with Anwar the guide and unfortunately, my experience fell short of expectations. Despite booking with the promise of an English-speaking guide, the reality was quite different. He predominantly spoke Spanish, making it challenging for me to understand and engage in the tour. There were 5 of us on the tour; 2 Spanish speaking snd 3 English. What exacerbated the situation was the guide's tendency to exclusively cater to the two Spanish-speaking individuals, neglecting to provide translations or explanations for the English-speaking majority. This language barrier significantly impacted the overall experience, as I was unable to grasp the insights and information that he intended to share. While the towns we visited were undoubtedly beautiful, the frustration caused by the language barrier overshadowed the enjoyment of the trip. I hope this feedback serves as a constructive point for improvement, emphasizing the importance of delivering on the language preferences promised to customers. I would give a 0 star review if I could as I did not get what I paid for.

Bad communication, did not go - Communication regarding pickup was so bad I doubted this tour would take place and booked a different one instead, effectively paying for two tours. The organizer appeared to ignore my messages, and later to avoid any clear statement. So I did not go, and I won't get a refund either it seems because I thought clarifying pickup within 24 hours of the start of the tour would be sufficient.

Lack of professionalism and respect - A lack of respect in capital letters. We had met the guide at 9 at our Riad (confirmed by himself). He calls us at 8:55 and tells us to go to a bus station. We tell him that we don't know where he is and that it is difficult for us to understand him. He tells us that the tour is in English and hangs up on us. (According to the tour announcement, it is in Spanish and the driver speaks English, French and Spanish, which is why we booked it.) Minutes later, he canceled our reservation and we were left looking like idiots.
